Hotel information
Nestled on the sublime West Coast of Barbados, the classically styled colonial hotel is both glamorous and laid back.
In Colony Club, Barbados, you’ll be greeted by lush palm trees, white sandy beaches and sparkling blue waters. Lagoon pools and tropical gardens all add to Colony Club’s distinctive allure. Immersing yourself in the sights, sounds, smells and sensations of this special hideaway will be as irresistible as anything the island has to offer. This serenity is coupled with gorgeous healthy, home-cooked cuisine and outstanding facilities, all designed with maximum comfort in mind.
Choose from 96 beautifully styled rooms with custom-made colonial furniture and thoughtful touches. French doors with picturesque views, calming private outdoor spaces, REN bath amenities, cosy robes, Nespresso machines and iPod docks all make this a home from home. Get involved with a variety of sports and activities and burn off some of the fine cooking you’ll be sampling during the day. Or, simply lay back, soak up the blissful ambience and feel the sun-drenched lull.
Families, couples and solos will all feel right at home at the welcoming Colony Club. There are even bespoke baby packs for families with children under 2-years old. Packs include natural baby bathing products, cribs and gorgeous little extras like musical mobiles. All this will keep every guest content in their island paradise, from the youngest to the oldest traveller.
In the evening, sample freshly caught fish and seafood washed down with a cocktail or zingy, freshly squeezed juices. Choose between a beachfront setting or something a little more secluded. And thanks to its healthy-eating ethos, you can take delight in inspired, balanced recipes, and take a complimentary tour of the gardens to see exactly where your food has come from.
