Virgin Holidays View
This hotel boasts a great health spa, treat yourself to a 'body polish' or 'aroma salt glow' - you are on holiday! The resort is set in 4 acres of tropical gardens and the pool area is surrounded by lawns where you can soak up the sun. The restaurants and bar area are close by, shaded from the sun, but still enjoying cooling ocean breezes.
You can choose between continental and Bajan cuisine in the restaurants. Dining in Enid's is of the traditional Caribbean variety, and there are regular barbecues. In the evening, be entertained with the fabulous sounds of Almond's very own musicians - they'll have your feet tapping and hips swaying in no time. This is the little sister of Almond Beach Village, and there's a FREE shuttle to enjoy the facilities there - which includes a 9-hole, par-3 pitch 'n' putt golf course. The shuttle also offers transportation to Almond Casuarina Beach, Almonds newest property on the South Coast of the island.
