Shangri-La Bed and Breakfast
Understated good taste informs every aspect of this lavish lakeside retreat, from the waterfall pool, hot tub, and screened-in patio overlooking the bird-filled lagoon to the carved hardwood furnishings, tatted linens, ornately embroidered pillows, and scrumptious breakfasts (to-die-for bread-and-butter pudding and sticky toffee soufflé). Some rooms have romantic touches like four-poster or canopy beds and jetted tubs. Even the sole room sans balcony, Poinciana, has windows overlooking the water. There's an honor bar, and guests have kitchen privileges (with their own shelf in the refrigerator). Families will appreciate the self-sufficient two-bedroom apartment that sleeps six (with an extra futon) and features jaw-dropping vistas from the rooftop terrace, accessed via a charming spiral staircase.
