Your choices at this hotel include many enjoyable recreational activities, so you are unlikely to run out of options for a relaxed, yet active vacation.

Water and Fitness

Since the hotel has 2 pools on location, it's more than likely you'll have no problem finding a great spot to soak up some sun, whether you've opted to spend a day or just an hour at the pool.

Even on vacation, some prefer to spend a bit of time each day on their health. During your vacation, your exercise routine can continue as scheduled considering there is exercise equipment available.

Tennis

Tennis enthusiasts will be particularly pleased with this hotel. You probably won't have any trouble finding a court to use, because there are 234 guest rooms sharing 4 courts . This translates to an average of just 140 guests per court, which is a favorable ratio, compared to most other hotels in the region. The hotel offers the option of playing on a lit court, so you can play into the evening hours. This is ideal for travelers who would rather spend their day pursuing other activities.

If playing tennis is at the top of your list of activities for your vacation, you may want to compare this hotel to some others that also offer tennis – particularly those hotels which are the most highly rated for tennis. Other hotels worth considering are Half Moon Montego Bay and Hedonism II.
