Frommer's Review

This 6-hectare (15-acre) resort, established in 1972, stands on the site of an 18th-century sugar plantation. The surrounding Mount Irvine Golf Course is one of the finest courses in the Caribbean. Although Mount Irvine retains a loyal clientele, Le Grand Courlan Resort and the Hilton surpassed it long ago. The center of the resort is a luxurious oval pool and the ruins of a stone sugar mill. The grounds slope down to a good sandy beach. On the hill leading to the beach are the newer and better-maintained cottage suites, covered with heliconia. Most accommodations are in the main building, a two-story, hacienda-inspired wing of rather large but standard guest rooms, each with a view of green lawns and flowering shrubbery. Some of the better units have Queen Anne-style furniture with two- and four-posters. Bathrooms have tub/shower combos. The hotel serves good international food. There's dancing almost every evening, and often calypso singers. There is also a resident piano player.

Facilities:
3 restaurants; 6 bars; outdoor pool; 18-hole golf course; 2 tennis courts; fitness center; sauna; fishing; snorkeling; water-skiing; windsurfing; Internet cafe; salon; room service; massage; babysitting; laundry service; nonsmoking rooms
