The 9 Best Beachfront Hotels in Barbados
The south coast of Barbados has broad, white-sand beaches lapped by surf that ranges from calm and swimmable to windswept and exciting. Many of the hotels on the island’s west coast—the Platinum Coast—face very narrow beaches that shrink to nearly nothing after autumn storms. The sand generally comes back as the weather improves, but these beaches are rarely as broad and beautiful as those on the south coast. These are the best beachfront hotels and resorts in Barbados.
Turtle Beach Resort
Why it made the list
Besides being a great place to sun and swim, the long swath of beach in front of the resort is a nesting place for sea turtles. If your timing is right (evenings, mid-July to mid-October), you’ll see hundreds of tiny, just-hatched turtles zigzag across the sand to the sea.
Sugar Bay Barbados
Why it made the list
The postcard-pretty beach in front of the resort has soft white sand studded with palm trees and a reef-protected lagoon where guests (of all ages) can use the snorkels, boogie boards, kayaks, or just take a swim.
