Sunscreen
First of all....what will it be like over Easter?.......I think that both resorts might already be sold out.
With that being said.......which is nicer? Tough question.
It is hard to put these two resorts up against each other since they are both top notch.
Here are some of my thoughts......
The Somerset
To me this resort just has "the look". Stunning architecture and a very well thought out design to the property.
Just like the variation of the property with the Estate Homes,Stirling Building and the English Cottages and croquet lawn.
Also like the long lap pool that centers the property and the lovely zero entry infinity pool that centers the property.
What is truly unique about this property is that each suite is individually decorated to the tastes of the individual owners and that all units are not cookie cutter.
Many different price points and a beautiful property.
Very friendly staff and great service.
O'Soleil and LunaSea restaurants on property for meals.
This property just has a relaxing vibe.
Regent Palms
Well groomed property and spotless suites.
Suites are very nicely furnished( uniformally.)
Ocean front, ocean view or garden view are offered.
The lockouts are very nice for the lowest level suites.
Have viewed many of the suites at this property and think the resort is lovely.
Five buildings that frame the central pool and swim up bar/restaurant.
Interesting pool design with an adults hot tub in the front.
Pool loungers and beds that are scattered around the pool offer areas to relax on.
Plunge is their poolside restaurant and Parallel23 their formal one are very nice.
First class spa on property as well as some nice shops around the courtyard(clothes,gourmet goods,art etc.)
Staff seem very friendly and gracious.
Between the pool and beach stretches an adults only boardwalk with loungers facing the beach.
Beach cabanas and loungers for relaxation.
Regent Palms seems to have more buzz to the property and seems a tad bit busier.
Both resorts are my favorites with their own uniqueness on the( IMO) nicest stretch of the beach within a short walking distance to other dining options.
To say which is better....you really can't.
Both are first class but have a different flavor and look to them.
Hope that this helps.
