If you’re feeling active, you can choose from tennis, biking, croquet, scuba, snorkeling, fishing and all types of boating. Put on your whites and pick up a mallet for croquet and then join your fellow guests for afternoon tea. If tea isn’t to your taste, try sipping on one of the two quintessential national drinks, the Dark ‘n’ Stormy and the Rum Swizzle. Unique to the resort is the “romance concierge” who can arrange everything from an intimate moonlit dinner in a hidden cove to vow-renewal ceremonies and weddings.
