Natural Beauty

Barbados has an intoxicating natural beauty characterised by brilliant aquamarine seas, sun-drenched stretches of powdery beaches and a verdant tropical landscape studded by a unique mix of traditional and modern architecture.  The most easterly of the Caribbean islands, Barbados is situated outside of the main hurricane belt, enjoying year-round sunshine tempered by cooling breezes and just enough rainfall to keep things lush.

Sports & Culture

The island’s allure extends beyond its natural beauty to all aspects of the distinctive ‘Bajan’ lifestyle. Barbados offers a truly exceptional range of attractions and facilities sure to exceed the expectations of the most discerning traveler. The island is a virtual mecca for active lifestyles and cultural pursuits.

The Casuarinas is just a short distance from both Sandy Lane and Royal Westmoreland, two of the Caribbean's most renowned golf and country clubs.  The island is also home to tennis and squash facilities as well as state of the art fitness, yoga and pilates centres. During the season, spectators can take in cricket, polo and horse racing, three of the island's most popular spectator sports.

For those wishing to take to the seas, Barbados naturally lends itself to a wide range of watersports.  Surfing, scuba diving & snorkelling, deep sea fishing and pleasure yachting can be readily arranged from several spots along the West and South Coasts of the island, including Port St. Charles Marina and the Bridgetown Harbour.

Dining & Nightlife

Barbadian nightlife is as vibrant as its daily sunshine, offering a wide spectrum of choices from the very chic and exclusive to old Bajan favourites.  The island is also highly recommended for its exquisite calibre of restaurants, so much so that Barbados now boasts its own Zagat guide.  Enjoy a wide range of culinary specialties, ranging from delicious local dishes to international cuisine prepared by some of the world’s top chefs.  The West Coast is home to the famed Cliff Restaurant, The Tides, Daphne's and Calabaza.

Island Amenities

The West Coast offers visitors all the comforts of home combined with the laid back vibe of the tropics.  In addition to the restaurants, nightclubs and bars, the Holetown area also offers retail and grocery shopping, a post office, police station and Sandy Crest Medical Centre offering routine and emergency care.
