Just having returned from our fifth trip to Caribe, we can say it continues to be one of our favourites. A new chef has resulted in a real step-up in quality and presentation of the food. The staff continue to be the heart of the resort. Patricia is back as part of the management which is a real plus.

The guests continue to be a diverse group of friendly people from many parts of the world, resulting in a variety of interesting conversations. Not a resort for the younger party crowd, but more a place to recharge.If you are going, check the "group" weeks lists if you wish to avoid the lifestyle crowd. (Two minor examples of inappropriate behaviour were noted, but addressed promptly by management during our visit.)

We plan to return at least once more in 2010.
