Wyndham Sugar Bay
Amenity highlights: Guests can walk or take complimentary shuttles from the lobby up and down the hillside, stopping at the health spa before continuing to the restaurant and beach area. A three-section pool with a rock-grotto waterfall is surrounded by a towel hut, tour desk, and water-sport cabanas. An oversized spa tub is located on the pool's sundeck. The resort's 75-yard beach provides lounge chairs and shade trees.
Insider tip: The resort includes its own desalinization and wastewater treatment plants, with treated water stored in freshwater ponds that attract turtles, ducks, herons, egrets, and a colony of iguanas living in and around pond mangroves.
