    Barbados: Caribbean Living Doesn't Get Any Better Than This

    Saint Peter's Bay Luxury Resort and Residences

    Where temps don’t dare dip below 70 and the locals are equally as warm, Barbados is the epitome of carefree Caribbean living. The West Indies island claims 60 miles of pristine shoreline and calm, turquoise waters. It’s no wonder the leeward side has been hailed the “Platinum Coast.”

    Name another destination you can deep-sea fish at dawn, devour Caribbean cuisine by noon, play championship-style golf till sunset then unwind with bubbly by the bay. That’s an average day around here. And at Saint Peter’s Bay, one of the area’s few luxury residential resorts, this kind of routine isn’t only acceptable – it’s highly encouraged.

    On Island Time

    Beyond Barbados’ lovable exterior, you’ll find rich culture and camaraderie. A melting pot by nature, the island’s vibe is greatly influenced by descendants of China, Hawaii, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico and even Thailand. Consequently, the “Culinary Capital of the Caribbean” presents opportunities for residents and visitors to appreciate their heritage through authentic dining experiences. Perched on a magical cliff-top setting, The Cliff is the number one dining destination and garners rave reviews for its superbly executed menu. Dockside at 13º/59º, the Port Ferdinand Resort’s upscale bistro, is what tropical fine dining dreams are made of. Chef Larry Rogers’ blends Caribbean and French flavors with super fresh seafood, resulting in a sophisticated menu that’s simply irresistible.

    Mojitos are a popular rum drink in Barbados

    Barbados’ own history is rooted in rum. That’s right; the island is credited with conceiving the strong stuff. From the annual Barbados Food & Rum Festival to Crop Over Festival, an island-wide affair that celebrates a 200-year-old tradition to honor the end of sugar cane season, Bajans find any excuse to pay homage and rum with it.

    Sporting events are prevalent, ranging from horse racing and motor racing to cricket and sailing. If observing doesn’t cut it, polo and horseback riding lessons are always a hit. As the site of five PGA standard courses, the island’s a golf mecca for players of every skill level. Saint Peter’s Bay concierge organizes tee times and club rentals hassle-free.
