It’s packed with family-friendly features, including a great playground a shallow kids pool, a mini-golf course, horseback riding stables and a private dolphin cove but parents will also appreciate the treatments at Fern Tree Spa the swim-up bars and the availability of full-time nannies. If nannies aren’t in the budget, kids can enjoy supervised activities like video games, arts and crafts, and stories with nap time in Anancy Children’s Village.
