For a quieter, more intimate experience, check out the resort's sister property, TradeWinds Sandpiper Suites.

"Deceptively severe-looking from the outside, this resort is fantastic once you explore the walkways, patios, and lily ponds."

"Situated next to the less energetic, more intimate Sirata Beach Resort, this is one of a pair of Tradewinds hotels, and it remains the nicer of the two thanks to continuing updates."
