Rodd Crowbush Golf & Beach Resort

This appealing resort has one of the island’s finest golf courses (often ranked #1) and a gorgeous stretch of beach. The inn itself has rooms and suites overlooking the course and the bay, many with king beds and some with balconies. The one-bedroom housekeeping cottages with kitchenettes are built for romance; they come with a propane fireplace and a heart-shaped, two-person Jacuzzi (plus a patio and barbecue). The two-bedroom units are ideal for families with a complete kitchen, fireplace, an upper floor, and a deck with barbecue. David’s ★★, the hotel’s dining room (serving three meals daily), offers such winning dishes as aged island rib-eye, island lamb, and a juicy brined chicken breast with apple sauce. The main dining room is complemented by an adjacent lounge and the clubhouse grill at the golf course; kids 10 and under eat free from the kid’s menu at all of them. Kids 18 and under can play a free round of golf, too. Make sure you enjoy a s’more—a foil-wrapped waffle cone filled with chocolate and marshmallows—at the beach bonfire after dinner. The golf course lies between the hotel and the beach so a shuttle service is provided for those who don’t feel like—or can’t—make the short walk there.
