introduction to Barbados
Our beach club is a popular choice for families because of the wide range of children's activities and self catering facilities in all studios and apartments. It is a 166 room luxury apartment hotel, with a three bedroom cottage, set amidst 8 acres of tropical gardens.
Emerging from the gardens, down gently winding walkways, one has to stop to fully do justice to the sight that awaits ....a 1500 feet expanse of white coral sand, lapped by the blue Caribbean sea. Our buildings are built in Spanish hacienda style, the blocks of rooms are scattered around 71/2 acres of lush vegetation which spills out onto the beautiful white sands of Dover beach on the south coast

We are united in our commitment to:- water conservation; energy conservation; minimising waste; maximising re-cyclability; giving unwavering support for Environmental Projects within the Community; and to not only beautify not only our immediate surroundings, but to reach out further into the Community, by way of such schemes as "Adopt A Beach".
As part of our commitment to The Adopt-a-Beach project we clean the whole stretch of beach of our adopted beach daily and have planted over 100 Casuarina and Coconut trees and placed 8 benches on the beach. The protection of our Turtle nesting areas are a priority and we work in close liaison with Bellairs' Institute to achieve this goal. Tree planting in the community is an activity afforded to staff and guests alike and makes for an enjoyable and worthwhile day out for everyone concerned. Two years ago the decision was taken to employ someone on a full-time basis solely designated to environmentally related matters - our Environmental Manager.Programmes include; reducing excess packaging at all times; composting our own kitchen and yard waste; fitting shower heads and taps with flow restrictive devices; eliminating the use of chemical or pesticides in our gardens and herb garden; and energy saving through low wattage lighting. Clean up the CO2 emissions of your flight using our Air Travel Calculator in partnership with Climate Care |
Tourism can be good and bad for destinations & local people. We carefully screen every holiday against our criteria for responsible travel. 'Look behind the brochure' to find how each holiday makes a difference (see left). We don't claim to be perfect - there is no global accreditation - but we've led the way since 2001 and screened 1000's of holidays. We invite every traveller to write a review about their experiences and responsible tourism. This valuable feedback is sent to the people who run the holidays. We keep a very close eye on it and take off holidays that don't live up to our standards. |
