Say Balls To The Football - Escape The World Cup In The Caribbean
Release Date: Monday, May 1, 2006
World Cup widows can leave their other half behind and head for the Caribbean to pamper themselves at the premium all-inclusive Almond Resorts this summer.
Football fever will sweep the country when England kick-off their campaign in Germany on 9 June but those who are dreading the tournament can escape to one of Almond Resorts' luxury four-star properties on Barbados or St Lucia.
For a child-free break, the Almond Beach Club & Spa on the platinum coast of Barbados is the perfect place to enjoy the sun and indulge at its newly refurbished spa. It has an exclusive yet relaxed feel, similar to the hotel, and specialised treatments available include the Island inspired Bajan Soltice Soother to repair sun damaged skin, a hydrating Island Flower bath, an Almond Essentials facial and a seascape pedicure involving a four-step exfoliation process with beach sand, quartz crystals, sea salt and AHAs; all developed using local products. Spa treatments are available at a locally payable extra cost.
The Almond Beach Club & Spa is a four-star adults-only premium all-inclusive hotel on the west coast of Barbados. Set amidst tropical gardens, the beach-front property offers three freshwater swimming pools, a fitness centre, tennis courts and water sports with free tuition.
Why not take the kids with you? The family-friendly Almond Beach Village also located on Barbados' platinum coast and Almond Morgan Bay on St Lucia are all-inclusive playgrounds for adults and children alike. The hotels include a kids club to keep youngsters aged three to 12 entertained with activities such as lessons in local dance, culture and music whilst movies and water sports are just some of the activities on offer to keep teenagers occupied.
All hotels offer a choice of gourmet restaurants serving a la carte meals and bars serving premium brand drinks, all within the all-inclusive package.
