Overlooking two exquisite beaches, the spectacularly-situated Curtain Bluff is an established resort that has been open for 50 years. There has recently been a thorough refurbishment of the rooms, providing a fresh new look. The hotel offers a slice of escapism - no televisions or radios here: just peace, tranquillity, the sound of the sea and the finest food and wine in the area. The resort's 'no key' approach reflects the trust placed in its long-serving staff and many repeat guests.

The spa at Curtain Bluff offers 5,000 sq ft of absolute pure indulgence, right on the water's edge. With five treatment rooms (including one for couples), an ocean-view relaxation room and an extensive spa menu, every guest will find their perfect way to rest and rejuvenate. Choose from body scrubs and wraps to signature facials and stone therapy, all carried out using Pevonia Botanica products.

Fifteen acres of beach and gardens create spectacular vistas for the newly refurbished fully inclusive 72 rooms and suites scattered up the bluff, where cooling sea breezes render air conditioning unnecessary even though it is available. Each room at Curtain Bluff is decorated with wicker, sea grass and exotic wood furnishings, and features ceiling fans, louvered windows, cool tiled floors and elegant marble or granite bathrooms. Whether on the beach or the bluff, every room offers breathtaking ocean views and a private balcony.

The Curtain Bluff is ideal for families, and both children and adults alike will find plenty to keep themselves amused. Guests can enjoy the hotel's many all-inclusive activities, from swimming, snorkelling, kayaking, windsurfing and water-skiing, to tennis, squash, putting, croquet, yoga, aerobics (on land and in water) and working out in the fitness centre. The resort's two beaches invite rest and relaxation, or guests can choose to lounge near the swimming pool and bar area while the children enjoy the fabulous CeeBee Kids Club.

Breakfast and dinner at Curtain Bluff are served al fresco in the Main Dining Room, with sweeping views of the gardens. Lunch is offered on the main bar terrace or in the casual Beach Club, which has been restyled with luxurious teak furniture. At cocktail hour, guests can enjoy hors d'oeuvres inside the Sugar Mill Bar or on its romantic terrace. The new Sea Grape restaurant is open four nights a week, serving Italian fare on the beach, while weekly Barefoot on the Beach events offer barbecue-style dining. Live music is played nightly for dancing in the Garden Pavilion.
