4* Franklyn D. Resort
Description / Location
Small and intimate, this resort caters especially to families. With a staff-to-guest ratio of 1:1, a vacation nanny service, four restaurants, and a multitude of activities, the resort predominantly attracts parents of young children and infants, and, sometimes, teenage siblings. The resort features two small crescent beaches fronting calm-water swimming coves. Snorkeling opportunities lie within and just outside the coves. Pools include a 23-meter-long (75-foot-long) freeform pool and an activities pool with a 30-meter (100-foot) spiral water slide. Toddlers enjoy two shallow pools, one with a 1.2-meter (four-foot) water slide. A rocky point between the swimming coves features an adults-only six-person spa tub and a sundeck. Complimentary wireless Internet access is available throughout the resort's public areas.
