The Best Hotels in Barbados

"Tamarind is the most family-friendly hotel in Elegant Hotels’ Barbados portfolio and is perfect for toddlers and teens alike. Set on Paynes Bay, swimming is safe for tiny tots in the crystal waters, while kayaking, sailing, and snorkeling will keep older kids amused for hours. Children can also join a dedicated island experience, during which they learn local phrases, cook typical dishes and take home a Bajan ‘passport’. Styling is bright and breezy with pops of color from modern artwork, rugs, and printed textiles across the 101 bedrooms. For dining, search out the Bajan specialities, such as flying fish, roti, and macaroni pie, or take advantage of the Dine Around program at the other Elegant Resorts properties for a change of scenery. Days at Tamarind start at the Sugar Cane Room, where you can enjoy fresh papaya juice, traditional ‘bakes,’ and the fluffiest herb omelettes. Head to the beach for snorkeling—you may spot sea turtles and manta rays—or to one of the three pools, where fruit kebabs and popsicles are served to cool you down. —Angelina Villa-Clarke Book now at Marriott Book now at Booking.com This article was originally published on Condé Nast Traveller UK." - Angelina Villa-Clarke, Rosalyn Wikeley

9 Best All-Inclusive Resorts in Barbados

"Top amenities included: Private entrance to property’s exclusive beach, access to five distinct poolsWhat’s nearby: Lush landscape and rugged coastlines just steps away from the resort This resort, founded in 1887, is the oldest continuously operating hotel in the entire Caribbean. There are several pools that cascade along the cliff top overlooking the ocean, and down below, Crane Resort guests have a private entrance to the powdery pink sand and the beach club. On the historic grounds are six restaurants ranging from contemporary Caribbean to southern Italian. Bar 1887 stands out for its homey environment with a wraparound veranda serving up nightly live entertainment and signature cocktails, including the infamous Crane Rum Punch. Between dips at the pool and exploring the island, the Serenity Spa offers a large range of treatments to kick back while the kids meet new friends at their own club." - Scott Bay

How 3 Caribbean Destinations Are Welcoming Visitors Back

"Visitors who arrive from high-risk countries without proof of a negative test will be tested at the airport, where they'll remain until results are available. The Crane Resort is offering a one-night package (rooms start at $190) that includes priority airport processing and, for an additional $150, a COVID-19 PCR test performed en suite, giving visitors a cushier place to wait out results."

Why Is Sex Better in Hotel Rooms?

"Relationship therapist Marissa Nelson believes so strongly in the healing power of vacation sex that she created an entire business around it: IntimacyMoons. Several years ago, Nelson noticed a recurring theme among many clients in troubled marriages. Some would take trips to mull whether to divorce or stay together; those who did go away to a hotel usually opted to remain married, raving about reconnecting via the great sex they’d enjoyed on the trip. In response, Nelson created her startup, which whisks a small group of couples away to the Crane hotel in Barbados for a few days. The vacation combines private couples’ therapy sessions with a chance for participants to unwind (rates start at $2,500 per couple)."

Beautiful resort with a really good atmosphere around the hotel grounds. It has a mini downtown with live music and several restaurants and shops. Gorgeous views of the ocean and a nice pool although the water seems murky some times. The location is closer to the east coast of Barbados and the seas are rough sometimes but nonetheless beautiful.

This is truly a luxury experience for tranquility and travel! I was thoroughly impressed with the staff and amenities! My first time having so much convenience like a washer dryer, jacuzzi tub, private pool, gorgeous ocean view and stunning decor! I even had a full kitchen complete with dishwasher!! They have a grocery store on premises and amazing restaurants! The rum punch on arrival was delicious! Literally a place I will visit annually because I found my piece of paradise!

Very nice place to stay! Beautiful view of ocean. But the seaweed made it not a good spot to go into ocean. They offered a shuttle to another beach that was not private and had constant disruptions from natives trying to get us to go on their wave runners!

⸻||We had a great stay at this beautiful resort. The hotel itself is stunning, with several different pools to enjoy and plenty of spots to take really nice photos. The breakfast was good, and the staff were very accommodating—we meet Anthony, who was a pleasure to work with and gave us suggestions for things to do.||We did have a few issues with the bathroom, but they were taken care of. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely stay here again. If you’re planning to go into town, I recommend renting a car—that’s what we did and it made things much easier.

I can't really express the beauty of this resort. The views, the beach, the pools, the rooms and to top that off the dozens of monkeys 🐒 on property just took it to another level. Don't miss Tuesdays night down at the beach for the BBQ and fire dancers. Beautiful and a vibe. Zen is the best restaurant on property imo, everything was delicious. Make sure to include free daily breakfast with your reservation.

The Crane is a beautiful resort. It had lovely wide open rooms with a variety of styles that could work for different sized groups. |The resort has several styles of restaurants and eating options. Live music in the evenings and a mellow atmosphere. It is not all inclusive. ||It is structured like the Main Street of a tiny village with public needs centered around a main square with short streets off of it. Painted in pastel tones that make you feel like you are away. ||It should be clearer that the prices are in Bajan currency. ||The beach, which is in a bay, was full of sargassum seaweed, but The Crane team provided a shuttle to a private beach on the other side of the island that was seaweed free. So wonderful!!||I’m planning on going back with my family this summer. It was a lovely experience.

If you like nice and quiet...well, this is it. Very nice staff, well kept facilities. Food selection are great. Nice little coffee place and small places to shop. Also have nightly entertainment and full activity schedule. Dont be scared away but the seaweed thing...they do a good job clearing, and despite the small issue of it, the beach is great!

We Booked a stay at The Crane for our honeymoon and were blown away from the time we stepped out the shuttle that came to pick us up once we arrived at airport. The staff at The Crane go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and ensure your stay is perfect, and they delivered on everything. The Resort is absolutely stunning all the plants and flowers that were planted are manicured perfectly and the you can tell they take great pride in the how the grounds and facilities look for their guests. We were pleasantly surprised by our room as well. Knowing the Crane has more traditional rooms to fit the style of the original hotel and Carribean style, we had a newly renovated room and couldn’t have asked for anything better. We felt right at home and again the staff at the Resort make sure they accommodate your every need if possible. The Restaurants on Resort are some of the best food I have ever had. The Italian Restaurant and Zen were my favorites and loved the atmosphere looking over the Ocean for spectacular dinner time and sunset views. If you’re staying on the Island I would highly recommend staying at The Crane we will 100% be back.
