    SERVICES
    What to expect: Established by billionaire philanthropist Laurence Rockefeller in 1986 as a tranquil retreat embodying the spirit of a Caribbean fishing village, the resort comprises a community of widely spaced two-story buildings with pitched red-steel roofs that pop out among the trees and flowering gardens. Though it's had a series of owners over the years, the resort remains a rest-and-relaxation destination primarily for adults—although children are welcome.

    Amenity highlights: A 0.25-mile beach furnished with lounge chairs includes hammocks strung between palm trees and provides access to snorkeling sites just offshore in the turquoise blue Caribbean. A large freshwater pool is sheltered by a wall painted with a tropical jungle scene and surrounded by a sundeck and lounge chairs. Two four-person spas provide soaking opportunities day and night.

    Insider tip: The only site within the U.S. territories that's been documented as a landing place for Christopher Columbus in 1493 lies 6.5 miles away in Salt River National Park.
