Curtain Bluff returns, renewed and radiant

The art of refined Caribbean living

The soul of Curtain Bluff has always been its effortless blend of barefoot elegance and genuine warmth, and its newly transformed 42 suites take this legacy to new heights. Each space has been beautifully re-envisioned to evoke the feeling of a private Caribbean home infused with modern sophistication.

Soft, sun-washed palettes, handcrafted rattan details, and bespoke furnishings combine to create an atmosphere that’s both stylish and soothing. Locally inspired art and accessories lend each room a sense of place, while plush textures and subtle patterns invite relaxation. Whether you’re sipping morning coffee from your oceanfront terrace or watching the sunset from your private lounge, every detail whispers of the easy, timeless rhythm that defines life at Curtain Bluff.

A new chapter for Sea Grape

As one of the island’s most iconic dining experiences, Sea Grape has always captured the essence of dining by the sea; it’s carefree, convivial, and deeply Caribbean. Following its redesign, the restaurant now radiates a new level of sophistication. A striking blue-and-white mosaic bar forms the heart of the open-air space, complemented by pendant lighting and breezy lounge-style seating that encourages guests to linger long after sunset.

A new glass-enclosed buffet room and expanded kitchen enhance both form and function, allowing the culinary team to showcase locally sourced ingredients and inventive Caribbean flavours with finesse. Whether it’s a leisurely beachfront breakfast or a romantic candlelit dinner beneath the stars, Sea Grape’s reimagined setting perfectly balances comfort and style.

New facilities, same heartfelt spirit

With the resort’s reawakening comes an array of elevated experiences designed to make every stay unforgettable. Guests can now arrive in ultimate comfort with luxurious Bentley airport transfers, setting the tone for a stay defined by effortless indulgence. From world-class tennis courts and a renowned spa overlooking the turquoise sea to scuba diving, sailing, and yoga in the dedicated adults-only wellness area, every moment at Curtain Bluff is crafted to rejuvenate body and soul.

Families, couples, and solo travellers will all find joy in the resort’s all-inclusive ease, where every detail, from fine dining to water sports, is woven into the experience. The beloved Cee Bee Kids’ Club continues to delight younger guests, while adults can find peace in secluded corners of paradise.
