Best Beach/Pool Combination Resort
 
There are lot's of great beaches in the Caribbean and lot's of great resort pools.<BR><BR>What resort has the best pool and beach combo?<BR><BR>Many times people will say &quot;xyz&quot; has great pool but beach is not great...must be a place somewhere that has a dynamic pool and a fantastic soft white sand beach with blue water? Where is it people?<BR><BR>Thanks.

Susan:<BR><BR>Wow, the Radisson does look nice. I'm not much for gambling but the hotel looks fabulous.

Why no takers on this subject? Hasn't anyone been to a resort somewhere that has a fabulous beach and pool?<BR><BR>This is the resort I am looking for.

Check out barcelo Bavaro Palace in Punta Cana, DR. I'll be there next week and part of the reason I chose this is for the beautiful beach and a grand looking pool!<BR><BR>IslandGirl

St. Barts is beautiful and the view from the pool at Francois Plantation is breathtaking. Not to mention the terrific restaurant onsite and the white sand beach location in a more secluded area.

you might like Peter Island in the BVI's. If it's on a fabulous beach usually there is little need for a pool especially a wonderful one.

I have to second the Radisson or Hyatt Aruba - I lean towards the Radisson but both are gorgeous.
