Who doesn't need a little bonus perk every now and then? If you're heading to Barbados, the only thing that could make your stay at a luxury rental better is upgrading your vacation package with a special perk. It might feel like your trip is already perfect when you arrive at your bungalow, complete with a private pool, open-air terrace and gorgeous panoramic views of the Caribbean sea, but believe it or not, it can get even better. Make sure to check out the perks you can add to your Barbados vacation before finalizing your trip reservations with a villa specialist!

Here are some ways you can boost your trip to Barbados:

Rent a Car
Barbados may be small, but you still can't circumnavigate its 166 square miles on foot. There are a handful of amazing sites that you'll want to add to your itinerary, like Codrington College. If you're into theology, enrolling is a definite possibility, but even if not, the campus is a great place to explore. The buildings were first built in the early 18th century, and were once the grounds of the famous Consett Plantation. With palm tree-lined walkways and gorgeous stone buildings, this school is one that may have you daydreaming about going back to college. 

After soaking up the stately scenery, you can zip over to the Barbados Museum, situated in St. Michael. While the historical exhibitions can be a fun learning experience, the lectures and jazz nights are even greater highlights. You can learn about whaling and the history of the jazz genre from those who have grown up in this exotic locale.

Sail on a Catamaran
Why not take a leisurely cruise aboard a catamaran? These multihull boats are fast and functional, and perfect for travel groups who want to see views of the island from the sea. There are two ways you can cruise on a catamaran: with a larger group or on a private cruise charter. Some people prefer the former as a way to meet and mingle with other vacationers, but if you've got a decent-sized crew, a private cruise can be just as fun. Spacious and open, these leisurely rides are also ideal for photography enthusiasts, so be sure to bring your (waterproof!) cameras along for the cruise.

Stock Your Kitchen
One of the best perks about reserving Caribbean villas is having your own spacious kitchen. But a kitchen already packed with your pick of groceries? OK, now that's perfect. This perk benefits the whole family, because you know that the second you step foot in the entryway of your condo, your kids are going to be exclaiming how hungry they are. Your family's probably planned at least one dinner outing during the vacation, but knowing you can eat in from time to time is a relief - and that beautiful terrace looks like a perfect place to enjoy an evening meal!
