The hotel
This adults-only resort is in an idyllic spot, up on the secluded Northeast coast, featuring a brand new pool on Rasta Beach with amazing views of the ocean, a revitalised lobby and bigger gift shop. Everyone gets a well-appointed, lovely suite with its own oversized, furnished verandah. The rooms are all in single-storey, open-planned suites scattered throughout the beautifully landscaped, 30-acre resort which leads down to two sandy beaches. Natural materials have been used in the suites' classic Caribbean design, with gabled roofs and timber-clad frames. Come together and learn Hobie Cat sailing, enjoy beach volleyball, explore the nature trails of the national park or admire the limestone formations of Devil's Bridge.
