The House, is a beachside version of the hippest downtown bolthole, with only 34 rooms and suites, exclusivity is the name of the game. Guests staying at The House compare the experience to staying in a private villa, except here there’s a complimentary champagne breakfast every morning and a personal ambassador to cater to every whim. The House is a beautifully intimate place with plenty of privacy for romantic dining. For food lovers The House may be one of the best hunting grounds on the Island, because the most acclaimed addition to the Barbados restaurant scene is the adjacent Daphne’s. Located bang on the beach, this satellite of the famous London restaurant, is regarded by many as better than the original. The House starts from £1,859 for seven nights.

Sandy Lane, a celebrity favourite and often frequented by the likes of Simon Cowell, was first opened in 1961 before being rebuilt from scratch in 1998. In rebuilding Sandy Lane, the porches, the staircases, the walls, the symmetry, the columns – every characteristic Caribbean Georgian detail – were carefully adhered to. The end result is that Sandy Lane looks like it hasn’t been touched on the outside but with a thoroughly modern hotel on the inside. The hotel is distinguished inside and out by its render of crushed coral limestone and is an unashamedly luxurious Caribbean hotel. Sandy Lane starts from £2,945 for seven nights.
