Best resort food?
 
If consistently good food was the *only* factor in your choice, which caribbean resort would you pick for a one-week stay? I don't necessarily require gourmet--just great taste, and the restaurant(s) must be on-site at the resort. Your votes?

I would look into any of the Relais and Chateaux properties in the Caribbean which are renowned for their high-quality cuisine (e.g. Biras Creek, Horned Dorset Primavera, I also think there are a couple on St. Barths.

Atlantis, Paradise Island, Bahamas.<BR>No question about it.<BR>The variety of food there is astounding....everything from bad to worse. <BR>And the atmosphere?<BR>It's like noplace else.<BR>Think Atlantic City casino meets McDonalds meets Disneyland.

Two all-inclusive resorts come to mind. We vacationed at Sandals Antigua twice and they had very good cuisine--especially liked the Japanese restaurant.<BR>Super Clubs Braco Resort in Runaway Bay Jamaica also has very good restaurants with variety--including a bakery-- and the resort is modeled after a Jamaican Village--we enjoyed everything at the resort and my husband loved stopping at the Jerk Meat Stand late at night for a snack.

Sandcastle Resort, Jost Van Dyke, BVI left us speechless after each meal

Biras Creek had outstanding cuisine in a beautiful setting. We ate every meal there (included in Week of Enchantment) every meal was a delicious surprise, without repeating a single dish. Lobster is on the menu every night and prepared differently. We are not easy to please either. I was so thankful for the bicycles to work off those lovely meals and wine!

Hotel Manapany in St. Barts or anywhere on St. Barts--best cuisine in the Caribbean. <BR>Super Clubs Grand Lido Braco is another great resort with several restaurants to choose from--Japanese, Jamaican, Continental, Bakery etc. The resort is located less than an hour from Montego Bay. <BR>

Sandals MoBay and Sandals Antigua bring out the best in food. I would vote both as top places. All the food comes from Jamaica, but is good in both places, as is the pampering from the staff. I indulge big time when I'm there and worry about losing the weight when I get home.

Royal Hideaway in Playa Del Carmen had incredible food. Four restaurants on site (it's an AI) and they were all excellent.
