This is an all butler suite resort.  It is intimate , only 74 suites.  All suites have an oceanview.  This resort is very quiet with 24 hour room service, beautiful gardens, afternoon tea and the only Champagne and Caviar bar, (extra charge) in the Caribbean.  It is an hour and 45 minutes from the Montego Bay airport and may be longer depending on traffic.  It has two private beaches (bring your water shoes as it is a little bit rocky),  This is NOT a place for anyone with mobility issues as there are no elevators and the rooms, restaurants and beach require the use of stairs.    Pool butlers bring your drinks to your lounge chair and each guest has a cell phone to use to reach their butler.  This resort has exchange privileges with it’s sister resort (right next door) Sandals Grande Riviera, but not the other way around.  If you want a quiet resort with outstanding service this is the one for you.

One of my favorite places to go is Hilton Head Island.  We go there almost every year and there is something for everyone.  We like to go in late spring,  just before Memorial Day so we can avoid the crowds that come for the summer.

Although known for it’s golfing there is so much more to Hilton Head than that.  One can bicycle, kayak, walk the beach, go fishing, eat at wonderful restaurants or just chill.

Want pizza and a beer, check out the Mellow Mushroom.  For mouth watering Tex Mex, try the Santa Fe café.  Their grouper is fantastic, as is their black bean soup and guacamole.  They also have great gluten free choices.  Frankie Bones has atmosphere and good food.

Go on a dolphin cruise, go horseback riding, parasail, do it all on Hilton Head Island!
