AMENITIES & SERVICES
|
|
What to expect: Casual, open-air recreation and relaxation are the themes. A family ambience prevails, established by the Doumeng family who've owned and operated the resort since 1974, and the long-time staff members. Many of the guests are regulars, who visit annually. Unlike most resorts offering All-Inclusive Plans, Bolongo Bay serves all meals à la carte (except for a weekly West Indian carnival buffet). Amenity highlights: A 1,000-foot crescent beach furnished with lounge chairs and thatched shades fronts the resort on Bolongo Bay. The resort has three swimming pools. One pool is shaped like a half-moon with a 75-foot diameter and features a swim-up bar. White-wicker lounge chairs with thick blue cushions are arranged on its sundeck. The other pool measures 60 by 20 feet. A third, smaller pool is across the street at the resort's fitness center. Insider tip: Guests may take a six-hour day-sail to St. John on the resort's 53-foot catamaran (fee). The trip includes a complimentary bar, a champagne buffet lunch, and two hours of swimming and snorkeling on a national park beach. (All-Inclusive Plan and Semi-Inclusive Plan guests earn a complimentary trip if they stay a minimum of seven nights.)

The resort includes a fitness center equipped with cardio and weight machines, free weights, sauna, and a small pool. Massage (fee) is available at the fitness center or in rooms. Complimentary activities include kayak races, bingo, and family beach olympics. For fees, tours are conducted to places such as St. John and the British West Indies and shuttle service is available to attractions such as Coral World marine park and renowned Magens Bay beach.
