Round Hill Hotel And Villas

Begun in 1953 as a collection of villas on a 110-acre pineapple/allspice/coconut plantation, Round Hill Hotel has long served vacationers who come here for the restful rusticity, which attracts celebrity and non-celebrity couples and families.

Accessible by a path from the resort's beach, an adults-only retreat features a health and beauty spa in a restored 18th-century plantation house and an 8-meter-diameter (26-foot) seaside pool. The spa (surcharge) offers treatments in air-conditioned rooms, on a veranda, at the sea edge, and in a hillside hydrotherapy area enveloped by trees. A garden tour is offered on Fridays and guests can take advantage of the walking and jogging paths, as well as an onsite fitness facility with an instructor.

The resort also offers babysitting and childcare services. A 24-hour business center offers high-speed Internet access and a library includes game tables.
