“This beachfront resort has adventure embedded in its DNA, with stunning views over the Caribbean Sea. I'm impressed by the immersive experiences that go beyond the typical beach vacation, such as chocolate-making tours and marine excursions led by high-trained dive professionals. The focus on local culinary experiences and wellness amid tranquil tropical surroundings makes this a true escape.”
