Beach Babylon

About this book

How does it feel to live and work in the world's most beautiful and luxurious tropical island resort, surrounded by white sandy beaches and aquamarine seas? How does it feel to exist in the lap of luxury when you're thousands of miles from anywhere else? And when the guests are some of the richest and most demanding people in the world, where do you find the energy every day to smile, smile and smile again? Beach Babylon takes you behind the scenes of the world of the five-star tropical island resort. Do all of the stories which take place behind closed doors of the exclusive spa have happy endings? What do the world's richest people expect from room service during their fortnight in paradise? What does the windsurfing instructor do to keep sane after hours? In the bestselling tradition of her previous Babylon books, Imogen Edwards-Jones here investigates the rivalries and alliances between the staff at a resort where catering for the guests' every whim is only the beginning. With a cast of millionaires, celebrities, hangers-on and prostitutes, Beach Babylon takes you to a world where luxury is the norm and where excess somehow isn't always enough...
