Curtain Bluff Hotel

Description:

• This serene oasis, which is rivaled in its glamour only by Carlisle Bay and Jumby Bay, is one of the island's premier resorts, with a price tag to match and enough ambience and class to make St. James's Club look like a glorified Holiday Inn. Residing 24km (15 miles) from the airport on the southwest shore, the hotel occupies the most lushly tropical section of the island, in the village of Old Road, and sits on two beautiful beaches (one turbulent, the other calm). This place is for a mature America-based, old-money crowd that likes the clubby feel. The beautifully furnished accommodations include deluxe units with king-size beds; a terrace room with a king-size, four-poster bed; and spacious suites with two balconies. Accommodations in the newer units are more spacious, with upgraded furnishings and two double beds. The two-story suites are among the most luxurious in the Caribbean.

  Facilities: 2 restaurants; 2 bars; babysitting; children's programs; fitness center; aerobics; bocce court; croquet; squash court; yoga; putting green; access to computer facilities; TV room; outdoor pool; room service; 4 tennis courts; deep-sea fishing; dive shop; kayaks; sailing; scuba diving; snorkeling; water-skiing; windsurfing
