Fodor's Expert Review West Bay Lodge

A lovely haven from the craziness that is West Bay Beach on a cruise ship day, this hotel is tucked away off the main road, but only a two-minute walk to the beach. The lush, green property houses eight updated bungalows complete with porch hammocks. The pool area is quiet and dreamy, with hanging table swings and lounge chairs. The on-site restaurant is famous for lobster baleadas, friendly parrots, and delicious hot breakfasts served to hotel guests each morning. Take a break at the day spa just steps from your room, where you can have an aromatherapy soak, a salt scrub, or a face mask made from local papayas.
