Description:
It's so old it's new again. Opened in 1887, this is arguably the Caribbean's first resort hotel. Near the easternmost end of the island, 23km (14 miles) east of Bridgetown, the hotel has bounced back for a new lease on life. What hasn't changed is Crane Beach -- called by many the most beautiful spot on Earth, its spectacular powder-soft white sand can look pink in certain lights. In the main house are 18 rooms with hardwood floors, resting under 3.5m (11-ft.) ceilings. These are graced with antiques and four-poster beds. Some of these accommodations offer wraparound balconies. We prefer these units, but you can also book into one of the three modern buildings with a series of one-, two-, and three-bedroom rooms. These, too, have such lovely features as Jacuzzis, Asian carpets, plunge pools, and handcrafted furnishings.
