Greeted by a private butler upon arrival, any stresses melt away as you are handed a mobile device that allows you to contact them at any time – whether you crave a cold drink, wish to book dinner in a romantic spot, or arrange for the shuttle to whisk you up the hill. Snorkel in search of colourful marine life or stroll along winding wooden walkways to the enchanting Rainforest Spa where treehouse treatment cabanas are connected by bridges. In addition to the two new Beachfront Collection homes, there are 20 other plantation elegant Residences at Sugar Beach, a Viceroy Resort ranging from one to four bedrooms. These accommodations are perfect for groups or families and entitle guests to priority access to all of the resort’s amenities and facilities. The first-class hotel rooms feature a classic colonial style complemented with contemporary touches and each comes complete with a private plunge pool. The Luxury Sugar Mill Rooms are close to the main facilities while Luxury Villas are set high in the hillside. Luxury Beachfront Bungalows offer direct beach access and are just steps from the water’s edge. Breakfast is served at the Terrace – set in the elegant Great House. Enjoy relaxed al fresco meals at the beachside Bayside Restaurant and Caribbean-influenced elegant dining at the Great Room or head to the Cane Bar for sushi platters and an Asian-themed menu. Romantic private dining experiences are available with tiki torchlights on the beach or under the stars on your own private terrace. Sugar Beach is just a short distance from Hewanorra International Airport which has direct flights from London on both British Airways and Virgin Atlantic, and a number of major US cities such as New York, Boston, Miami and Atlanta.
