Frommer's Review

The Coral Reef Club does it better, but if it's full, this South Seas resort on a white-sand beach evokes an earlier Barbados. Completely overhauled, it's a self-contained, intimate resort, set in a small grove of coconut palms and flowering trees. A cluster of rustic-chic units surrounds the pool; some have fine sea views. The rooms open onto little terraces that stretch along the second story. Accommodations are large, consisting of superior rooms and one- or two-bedroom suites beautifully furnished with tropical pieces, each with a private terrace.

Facilities:
Restaurant; 2 bars; outdoor pool; 2 tennis courts; fitness center; children's programs; room service; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
