Virgin Holidays View
This hotel boasts a Pranna Spa with 6 treatment rooms, offering a full spa service using O SPA London Organic products. The resort is set on 4 acres with tropical gardens and the pool areas 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, Bajan or seafood cuisine in the restaurants. Dining in Enid's is of the traditional Caribbean variety and the Water's Edge Restaurant specialises in seafood and offers beachfront dining under the stars. There are also 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.

The shuttle also offers transportation to Almond Casuarina Beach, Almond's newest property on the South Coast of the island.
