This hotel proves that variety’s the spice of life, with its horde of restaurants, bars and pools on offer.

This one’s for ‘go big or go home’ types. It’s got three pools, four à la carte restaurants, and you get access to a sister hotel too.

In terms of location, you’re in for a real treat here, too. The hotel’s hidden away in a coconut plantation, a stone’s throw from a beach, so expect soft sand, neat gardens and plenty of palm trees to keep you company.

The deluxe double rooms are contemporary with luxurious soft furnishings. They feature a hydromassage bath, a 42” flatscreen TV, a minibar, tea and coffee making facilities and a balcony or terrace. For a bit extra, you can upgrade to a poolside room.

Facilities

The hotel’s main restaurant, El Behique, serves a varied buffet spread and puts on live cooking shows. During your stay, you can also use the facilities at the Grand Palladium Palace Spa & Hotel next door.

The pool area is textbook Caribbean. The lagoon-like pool’s decorated with palm trees, flowerbeds and umbrellas.
The Playa del Cortecito’s a short walk away. This one-kilometre stretch of beach is lined with tropical trees, plants, bars and public sunloungers*.
