Frommer's Review

Named after the famous hotel of Singapore, this villa-studded resort opens onto a beautiful white-sand beach set on 120 hectares (300 acres). It is the latest reincarnation of the Carenage Bay Club, which was once hailed as one of the grandest and most luxurious resorts in the southern Caribbean. The Raffles incarnation has even better facilities and more comfortable bedrooms. Opening onto Carenage Bay, each of the accommodations is a villa suite set near the beach. The golf course has been extended to a full 18 holes, and a deluxe European-style casino has been added. Each suite comes with its own private terrace. Decorated in pastels, the bedrooms have a light, airy, tropical feel. Rooms come in a variety of categories from deluxe through luxurious suites. The Caribbean's largest hotel pool is one of the allures, lying at the edge of the beach. Top chefs, often Italian, have been imported to turn out a first-rate cuisine that begins with an opulent breakfast buffet and ends with late-night Continental dining.

Facilities:
4 restaurants; 4 bars; giant outdoor pool; children's pool; casino; 18-hole golf course; 4 tennis courts; fitness center; 929-sq.-m (10,000-sq.-ft.) spa; boat excursions; 24-hr. room service; laundry service; kids club
