From the moment you enter the resort you know you have landed amongst the elite. For those who usually dream about a holiday like this, you seriously need to consider treating yourself just once to experience this gorgeous haven of luxury.
Hidden away in a stunning calm bay, the hotel is made up of 25 detached cottages that rise from the beachfront, up into the steep hill behind, spread out nicely amongst the 16 acres of lush tropical gardens. When I sat sipping my freshly made mojito amongst the eco-chic décor, I felt truly relaxed and like I was where I had always wanted to be on a Caribbean holiday. Nothing is too much trouble, and if you are celebrating something special, or simply just being together, every couple should head over to one of the 2 private beaches on the speedboat with a picnic basket packed with luxuries and champagne.
My favourite thing about the hotel is the huge roll top baths in the cottages which simply have to be seen to be believed?! If you want to be blown away by attention to detail, this is the place to be!
