Virgin Holidays View
This modern resort occupies 300ft of south coast beachfront. It doesn't matter which hotel you stay in, as you are free to use the facilities at both. This means you can enjoy 2 swimming pools, an oceanfront restaurant and, of course, a selection of free non-motorised water sports along the lovely white sand beach. The complex has the added advantage of being only a 5-min drive from the shops, bars and restaurants of the lively St Lawrence Gap.
