A variety of different recreational pursuits isn't necessarily something everyone requires to enjoy the perfect tropical vacation. While some would rather stay at a resort with a lot of recreational activities available, others would be perfectly happy with very few recreational choices, because they'd rather spend their time relaxing and exploring their surroundings. Even though the hotel doesn't offer a long menu of recreational resort amenities the Divi Southwinds Beach Resort may have everything you need in a vacation retreat.
Water and Fitness
In fact, since there are 2 pools to choose from, it will be easy to find a spot in the sun.
Tennis
Tennis enthusiasts will be particularly pleased with this hotel. There are 132 guest rooms and 1 tennis court. This equates to an average of approximately 317 guests for each tennis court, which is not as good as the ratio provided by some other hotels. Vacationers will have some chances to play, but during the high season you may have to find an alternate time for your match, like when most other guests are having lunch. Evening matches are a possibility, since you have the option of using a lit court. This is an ideal option for those who want to spend the daylight hours exploring the area.
If playing tennis is at the top of your list of activities for your vacation, you might want to compare this hotel to other ones that offer courts – especially those with high ratings for tennis. Some other hotel choices worth considering include Sandy Lane and Sam Lord's Castle Resort.
Golf
Although the Divi Southwinds Beach Resort does not have a golf course, if golf is on your list of things to do, the hotel can assist with reservations at one of the local courses. The closest golf course is Rockley Golf Course, located 0.7 miles to the northwest of the Divi Southwinds Beach Resort. The course has a total length of 5,610 yards, and it has been rated as a par 70. The greens fees for use of the course are as follows: $92.00 (2 times around 9 hole course). For more details, you can call 246-435-7873.
