Sporty Resorts
BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS
Bitter End Yacht Club
Set along the shores of Virgin Gorda's protected North Sound, the Bitter End Yacht Club takes full advantage of the calm waters, offering sailing, windsurfing, kayaking, diving, and kite boarding. Try the yachtsman's lifestyle by chartering a Freedom 30 and exploring the surrounding cays and inlets, some of which are only accessible by boat. At day's end, fall asleep to the sound of waves gently lapping against the hull.
DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
Casa de Campo
For the perfect adult summer camp, look no further than this 7,000-acre playground on the DR's southern coast. You'll stay busy with three Pete Dye-designed golf courses, four polo fields, 13 tennis courts, a 3.1-mile jogging trail, mountain biking, skeet shooting, and an extensive roster of water sports. The 150 private villas—many with plunge pools—complete the picture.
THE GRENADINES
Raffles Resort Canouan Island
For many greens junkies, the golf experience reaches its zenith on the par-72, Jim Fazio-designed, Trump-owned course at Raffles's first Caribbean resort. Wraparound sea views are the backdrop for 18 devilishly challenging holes sprinkled over beachside plains and hills that rise like a spectacular amphitheater above the bay. Even nonplayers will find plenty to love in the 156 airy guest rooms and Raffles's famously gracious Asian-style service.
JAMAICA
Ritz-Carlton Rose Hall
Named after a spirit who is said to have haunted the region in the early 19th century, the White Witch Golf Course at the Ritz-Carlton Rose Hall rambles over 600 acres of a former sugarcane plantation. Sixteen holes face the sea, and a pair of complimentary golf concierges lug clubs, track scores, and offer tips to improve your swing. When you've worked up an appetite, head to Jasmine—the formal dining room—for Jamaican-Asian dishes in small-plate portions.
