There are a whole literally countless hotels and resorts to choose from, and each has something worthwhile to offer whether you choose Paradis or Oberoi. There are even Beachcomber Hotels for those that just want to get into the water. You know you are in the right place when someone like Mark Twain describes the place as the “Blueprint to Paradise.”

There are countless activities that you can do ranging from waterskiing to sailing. There are also natural hidden clear lagoons that can be shared with the one you love, and this is also the place to get a variety of clothes, just remember to dress light as it will still be on the warm side. Plus if you do go hunting for goodies to bring home, this is one of the best locations to buy jewelry especially those with 18 to 22 carat gold. The prices here for jewelry are unbeatable and they are crafted here in this little island.
