Petite Island, Endless Adventures
About Barbados
Irresistible Island Charm
Affectionately called "Little England," Barbados features a unique combination of British tradition and Caribbean flair, creating an irresistibly charming atmosphere. Watch a game of cricket (the island's national sport), sip afternoon tea on your private patio overlooking the sea, frolic in crystal-clear turquoise water, and help yourself to the island's world-famous rum.
Our exquisite Barbados vacation homes range from 1-bedroom cottages to expansive 10-bedroom estates on the island's legendary beaches. Most of our luxury villas in Barbados come with a full staff – chef, butler, housekeeper and more – at no extra charge. Allow your private chef to entertain your palate with traditional Bajan cuisine as you dine poolside to the backdrop of a breathtaking sunset.

Barbados is a limestone-coral island, which means that its beaches are made from finely ground coral, resulting in clean, soft sand. Each part of the island provides something different: the calm west coast is perfect for swimming and snorkeling, the lively south coast is great for more adventurous water sports like kite surfing, the windy east coast is a surfer's paradise, and the north coast offers dramatic cliff views for picture-perfect picnics.
On Friday nights the big thing to do is go to the fish fry at Oistins Bay. The food is the main draw - excellent fish, including tuna, swordfish, marlin, mahi-mahi, flying fish, lobster, chicken are served in a casual setting. You can get your fish grilled or fried depending on which vendor you choose from. It's all cooked on the spot in front of you. It is a truly local experience!
