Features
What to expect: Popular with families during summer and holidays and with couples during winter, this resort attracts an international clientele. Because it occupies an entire peninsula of 40 hectares (100 acres), this hotel can seem like an island onto itself, with tranquil Mamora Bay to its west and the windswept Atlantic Ocean to the east. Green hills provide a backdrop for beaches of white sand.
Amenity highlights: Two beaches, Mamora Beach and Coco Beach, each almost one km (a half-mile) long are protected by a barrier reef. Serving as the water-sports center, Mamora Bay's crescent beach is lapped by calm water and includes two wood docks ending in large sundecks furnished with lounge chairs. From the second beach, snorkelers head out to explore the coral offshore. Four pools, including one for children, provide freshwater swimming. The main pool features a 270-degree sea view. The resort's villa section includes a three-level bay-view pool and the fourth pool overlooks the open sea.
Insider tip: Every Thursday night, the resort's evening dress code is relaxed at The Docksider, on the edge of Mamora Bay, when a steel band plays and a limbo dancer entertains during a Caribbean barbecue buffet.
The majority of meals and beverages, plus all gratuities, at the following restaurants (except Piccolo Mondo), snack spots, and bars are included in the room rate for this resort (scroll up to the All-Inclusive Details section for more information).

| My husband and I went to St. James Club on our honeymoon and really enjoyed it. All inclusive is the way to go since the prices of average USA items are extremely high because of importing fees. Food and drinks are average -- there are some nights where it is awesome. The beaches and the bay are extremely beautiful. It is a great place to relax and get away from our busy lives. There are also plenty of historical and sights to go to, so allow room in your schedule to enjoy the rest of the island. Overall, St. James Club is definitely a place we recommend visitors to stay.
