Frommer's Recommended

Built in the mid-1980s as a small inn, but expanded and enlarged many times since then, this resort is set on steeply sloping terrain beside a secluded, half-moon-shaped beach 3km (2 miles) southeast of Basseterre. The small hotel is uncomplicated and easygoing. Seven coral-colored and angular buildings each have six to eight accommodations. It's a good example of a carefully maintained West Indian-owned resort where guests, despite the handful of organized activities, are very much on their own. Views from most bedroom balconies are of either the Bay of Basseterre and the capital, or of the water stretching toward Nevis. All units have private patios or balconies and rather bland furniture inspired by the Tropics. Bedrooms carry out the Caribbean motif with flowery fabrics and paintings of birds. Each superior room has one king-size or two double beds, and each studio suite offers a queen-size bed plus a sofa bed and a kitchenette. Apartments have full kitchens.
