Where

Breezes resorts are in Brazil and Cuba, the Starfish resorts in Jamaica (two, opening 2002).

Style

The Breezes resorts are for sports enthusiasts.
Resorts tend to be large, the Brazilian one for example offering 1,650 rooms. Breezes Costa Verde has 480 bedrooms divided into 31 two-storey buildings. Accommodation is generally suite style. Facilities include three swimming pools and two jacuzzis, a variety of water sports, four tennis courts, an ice -skating rink, mini golf, beach games and a new workout centre with an on site fitness instructor. There is a rock-climbing wall and a circus workshop with instruction on flying trapeze, trampoline clinics and juggling, are also available with professional instruction at an additional cost. Entertainment is nightly from 9pm until the last person leaves.

The family budget brand is Starfish. The Starfish Trelawney for example has 350 rooms including 40 ground level cottage rooms which are larger than average so particularly suitable for families. Fewer activities are included in the price and spirits for example would be local rather than international brands.
