An elaborate menu of recreational amenities isn't necessarily needed to create the perfect vacation. While some vacationers prefer a hotel with many different activities available, others are perfectly content with one or two recreational choices, since their top priority is just to relax. Although this hotel does not offer an extensive array of active recreational amenities the Hawksbill Beach Resort may have everything you need in a vacation retreat.
Golf
Even though there isn't a golf course at the Hawksbill Beach Resort, if the idea of playing a round of golf in a tropical setting is appealing, the hotel can help you make arrangements with one of the local courses. The closest golf course is Jolly Harbour Golf Course, located 4.7 miles southeast of the Hawksbill Beach Resort. This is a par 71 course, with a total length of 5,587 yards. Greens fees are as follows: $40. For more information, call (268) 462-3085 ext 608.
Tennis
Although the hotel offers tennis, it isn't rated very high for this amenity. There are 111 rooms and 1 court available. This comes out to an average of approximately 266 guests for each tennis court, which is not as favorable a ratio as you would enjoy at some hotels in the area. You won't have trouble playing a match, but during the high tourism season you may have to wait for a time when the courts aren't crowded, like when other guests are having breakfast. A lit court is not available, so you'll have to schedule your matches during the day.
St. James's Club and Jolly Harbour Beach Resort, Marina and Golf Club are excellent hotels for tennis that you may also want to consider. These hotels feature some of the greatest spots for tennis, so it may be wise to take a minute to consider these other options before making a final decision.
Entertainment and Nightlife
If you want to add a little spice to your vacation, spend some time near the sparkling lights of a live performance; this experience is an easy option since the Hawksbill Beach Resort offers live entertainment. Although their operating hours may vary, the hotel provides multiple spots where you can enjoy a beverage. Guests of the hotel can usually catch some live entertainment 2 days a week. Please keep in mind, the specifics can vary with the season. Getting more information about the schedule may be helpful, so you can do just what you want for your evening excursions. If the hotel isn't offering entertainment on a particular night, or you just want more evening options, you could consider visiting another hotel in the area, as listed in the chart below:
