With seven swimming areas and a countless number of excellent restaurants, why leave paradise? The resort is divided into suites, villas and houses in separate areas, so families needn’t worry about ruining a couple’s honeymoon. Leave the anklebiters at the highly entertaining Kids’ Club, then retreat to the adults-only areas – the endless activities include snorkelling, paddleboard yoga, and a Jack Nicklaus golf course.
