There are W Welcome Ambassadors to greet them and direct them to the W Van that takes them to the W Lounge, where they are offered food, drinks, and, if they choose, a shower.

"Fesdu has one of the best 'house reefs' of all the resort islands, which means spectacular dive and snorkel spots right off the beach, as opposed to the boat rides often required elsewhere."

It is of course possible to completely avoid these and all other distractions at the spa, which is bigger and better than most with its spacious teak-floored treatment rooms on the water.

The standout is Koi, the candelit Japanese restaurant at the end of the jetty where you should request a table right by the water.
