Ocean Escape Resort&Spa
Oh what a wonderful resort this is. I would go as far as to say that it is probably the best resort on the island. Every thing is just perfect and Barry and Elaine are the best hosts that you could wish for. Highly recommended.

It would have been great to have had a cold shower outside to rinse yourself off. But a great place to go for walks and close to a shop and car and bike hire.
