Virgin Holidays View
A very stylish retreat, the Bacolet Beach Club, developed by former fashion model Gloria Jones-Knapp, pays homage to luxury and serenity in a big way, ensuring a holiday that will leave you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. Beautifully situated, it overlooks a private stretch of shimmering sand, accessible only through the hotel’s main entrance. Indeed, the location is so revered, it has been the backdrop for many a Hollywood movie, including the Swiss Family Robinson, and you too will feel like a castaway in such idyllic surrounds! Rooms and suites are the perfect place to unwind with an eclectic mix of furnishings and an inviting Caribbean atmosphere. All of them feature four-poster beds and private verandas furnished with rattan loungers from which to admire that stunning sea view. A charming bridge connects you to the overflowing horizon pool complete with wooden deck for soaking up the Caribbean sun. Also across the bridge is Havana, a 3-tier gourmet restaurant serving a colourful and mouth watering blend of local and international cuisine.
