RumFish Beach at TradeWinds
I stayed the week with 3 teenage girls who had the time of their lives. We felt very safe, there was so much to do & the beach was absolutely gorgeous. All of the restaurants were excellent. The Italian Palms Court was our favorite. We never left the resort. Very happy with our stay.
