And while the atmosphere may be a bit stiff and formal, this member of The Leading Small Hotels of the World truly caters to families. It boasts an amazing beach, excellent kids club and wide variety of kid-friendly activities. The spa is superb and the food is good. The one drawback is the poor quality of the house reef.
