Blue Bay Beach Resort

Sarah Fox

Stunning beach and such a laid back atmosphere, epitomising island philosophy. Loved the casual feel of this hotel, and dining at night around the pool was blissful. I love their 'Club 24' concept, having some rooms apart from the main hotel with its own pool area, giving added privacy for couples.
