5 Best All Inclusive Hotels in Barbados

5 Best All Inclusive Hotels in Barbados

There are lots of great things about all inclusive Caribbean accommodation packages, but surely the very best thing is knowing that however many prawns or ice creams you, or your family, eat, and however many times your kids want to go out on the pedalos, or borrow the snorkelling equipment, you’ll not have to get your wallet out. Now that’s a proper holiday! Barbados provides the perfect backdrop for that proper holiday, with its long, white, sandy beaches, ease of access and fascinating history and culture — if you choose to leave your all inclusive Barbados resort, that is. The problem with Barbados is choice — there’s a lot of it! Which is why our Hotel Gurus put together this list of the best all inclusive hotels in Barbados.

For Romance

Spacious, yet intimate, The House has just 34 adults only suites, carefully decorated with white linen and marble. Right on the beach and surrounded by tropical grounds, you can easily lose yourselves in the beach bar, chic terrace, by the lagoon pool or in the gym and spa. The food is sensational, and your relaxation is kicked off on arrival with a complimentary jet-lag massage.

For Superb Facilities

Crystal Cove is wonderfully positioned on a slight slope running towards a white, sandy beach, and its 88 rooms, suites and villas benefit from lush, tropical surrounds and fantastic views. The decor is colourful, and there are art works and hammocks-on-terraces as standard. This property is large enough to have three lagoon pools — one with a waterfall bar — a kids club, loads of watersports facilities, tennis courts, entertainment of an evening, and free water taxis!
The Tamarind is another all inclusive beach resort with so many fantastic facilities on offer that you needn’t leave. The 100 odd rooms, suites and villas share three outdoor pools — one adults only — a gym and spa, shops and a choice of bars and restaurants. Plus they offer all sorts of watersports, sailing, snorkelling, scuba courses, horse riding… and there’s a kids club and a teen lounge, and an electric tram that takes you to visit an incredible show cave.

For families

Large and elegant, Turtle Beach manages, with its scale, to be both romantic and family friendly. The choice of accommodation is excellent, and all options are spacious, with a nod to the nautical. There are two large lagoon pools and a separate splash pool for the kids, plus family friendly dining, a kids club, opportunities to try all sorts of watersports, and direct access to a huge stretch of beach. Plus, complimentary cocktail mixing lessons after the kids have gone to bed.

For Great Value

Treasure Beach is a chic, 35 suite hotel, positioned right up against a pale, sandy beach on idyllic Paynes Bay. The decor is simple but elegant, featuring dark wood and original artworks. There’s a lovely pool, an award-winning restaurant and a lively bar. They also have a wedding license.
