Looking for a total change of pace? Want to lounge on your
private porch with your nose in the latest Grisham mystery
or build sand castles with your kids on a pristine beach that
you have all to yourself? Then consider Chenay Bay Beach
Resort, an unusual resort that combines housekeeping op-
tions with resort amenities. The combination, while not ev-
eryone's cup of tea, is great for families and self-starters.
Fifty individual cottages built in traditional West Indian
style, a few steps from a sandy beach or perched on a gentle
hillside, are surrounded by hibiscus and old genip trees.
Each air-conditioned cottage has a well-equipped kitchen,
private bath and tastefully furnished living room/bedroom
areas. Each has a terrace. There are barbecue setups
nearby.
