Fodor's Expert Review da'Vida

You could spend the whole day dining, drinking, snorkeling, kayaking, shopping, and lounging on the comfortable chairs at this beautifully designed resort, restaurant, and club on exquisite Crocus Bay. Picnic at the Beach Grill (burgers, hot dogs, wraps, salads) or head inside the main building for dumplings, soups, pastas, and pizzas. Lunch starts at 11, tapas and sunset drinks at about 5. At dinner, the stylish wood interior (built by craftsmen from St. Vincent) is accented by candlelight. Tasty dishes include seared snapper with gingered kale, coconut-crusted scallops, and Angus steaks. The owners, siblings David and Vida Lloyd, who also operate Lloyd's Guest House, grew up right here, and they have taken pains to get it all just right.
