Barbados offers an idyllic haven stretching across the northern edge of the Caribbean sea. This exotic gem is nestled next door to St Lucia and St Vincent and with seventy miles of sandy shores, you won’t have to look far to find crystal-clear waters to bathe in.
If you are in need of some relaxation but don’t want to miss out on some stunning natural sights, Barbados is for you. It certainly lives up to its glamorous reputation - the island is blessed with a wealth of acclaimed fine dining restaurants and boutique bars.
However, there is something understatedly luxurious about Barbados. It’s a proudly easy-going location where natural wonders meet effortlessly sophisticated resorts.
Barbados Resorts
Of these resorts, the Coral Reef Club is to be noted. The resort perfectly captures the colonial charm of the island whilst remaining true to the Caribbean heritage - Coral Reef Club is made up of an array of coral cottages which give the feel of an authentic Caribbean village. An embodiment of Caribbean luxury, this resort offers a sensual paradise.
Colony Club is also on the list of our top picks. This luxury retreat is renowned on the island for its soaring palm trees and lagoon-style pools. You won’t be disappointed by its architecture either - the classic, colonial look of the property is a highlight.
If you’re after something more intimate, why not stay at The Sandpiper? This coastal boutique hotel offers traditional charm coupled with an exceptional team who offer an exquisite service that leaves many travellers coming back to this spot year after year.
Added to this - the iconic Sandals Resort in Barbados is ideal for those seeking a romantic Bajan retreat.
