If you would rather get away from it all on your Barbados holiday, we may have designed The Crane just for you.

Set on Barbados' world-famous Crane Beach - named "one of the Ten Best Beaches in the World" by Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous - The Crane is the Caribbean's first resort hotel. First opened in 1887 and now fully restored and expanded, this truly unique property combines old-world charm and incredible natural beauty with a romantic sense of seclusion.

The superb suites in the "private residences" at The Crane, the first of which opened in 2001, offer guests a new standard in luxury oceanfront accommodation. You can inhale the original atmosphere of The Crane while appreciating spectacular ocean views. Here, charm and comfort is everything.

Extremely spacious, these oceanfront residences, feature hardwood or stone floors, 12’ ceilings, authentic Barbadian furnishings and décor, and in most cases private ocean view pools. Also included are fully equipped kitchens or kitchenettes, perfect for dining in or for entertaining al fresco on spacious terraces.

All room categories feature an iron and ironing board, hair dryer and razor point, safety deposit box, direct dial telephone and free WiFi and dataport access.
