The Pool at La Samanna, A Belmond Hotel, St Martin

"Add loads of waterfront activities, great tennis, two freshwater pools, and two restaurants (one on the beach, one in the main house)"

"Featuring two beautiful pools, an extensive wine cellar, a yoga and Pilates studio, a European-style spa, and the island's most pristine beach, this 81-room, eight-villa retreat is hard to beat"

"Rooms range from doubles to suites to multi-bedroom villas armed to the teeth with personal concierges, infinity pools, and rooftop terraces with Baie Longue views"

"There are two pools for swimming and sunning (in the unlikely event that you get tired of the beach), while on the sand you can call your cabana boy all day long with the resort’s daily thatch-roofed cabana rentals, ideal for guests staying up on the bluff"

"Amenities geared toward little ones include a kids camp, nanny service, and child safety measures like a bracelet that will sound an alarm should a child wearing it wander too close to the swimming pool"

"The Deluxe Ocean View one-bedroom suites come with private plunge pools"
