Concierge
"Set on the cliffs near Seven Mile Beach, this charming collection of thatch-roofed, timber-and-stone villas is one of the best all-inclusive values on the island."

Upscale
"The lush, laid-back Rockhouse creates a holistic haven -- gourmet dining, morning yoga, cliffside loungers, a premium spa, no kids under 12, and beautiful eco-appropriate design." Full review
Travel + Leisure
"This ultrahip hangout takes its name from its cluster of thatched-roof bungalows built atop rock cliffs that jut just above an aquamarine cove." Full review

"FDR is an all-inclusive that's the number-one choice if you're traveling with children." Full review
Fodor's
"A favorite for families with very young children, this relaxed resort goes a step beyond the usual supervised kids' programs."
Travel + Leisure
"This decidedly un-fancy resort enjoys great popularity with families because its daily rate includes a "vacation nanny" who tidies the room and entertains the kids all day long." Full review

"The mid-range Franklyn D is geared towards families on vacation." Full review
Lonely Planet
"At this Spanish hacienda-style, all-inclusive family resort, there are kid-friendly facilities and a personal nanny assigned to each child." Full review
Travel + Leisure
"A resort where your own personal nanny is included from 8:30 a.m. until 4:40 p.m. daily...children staying at the Franklyn D. Resort & Spa are unlikely to get bored: There's a 100-foot-long waterslide"
