Check Availability & Pricing
Hotel Information: This open-air resort in Barbados attracts couples, singles, and families for relaxed holidays centered on the beach during the day and on dining and nightlife in St. Lawrence Gap after dark.
Amenity highlights: Southern Palms Beach Club is situated along a 305-m (1,000-ft) sretch of beach with fine, cream-colored sand. Guests enjoy complimentary use of snorkeling gear, boogie boards, and windsurfers for play in the vivid-blue waters, where the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea mingle. Two pools lie along the beachfront.
Insider tip: Koko, a friendly macaw of indeterminate age, has resided at the resort for 45 years, with the exception of a brief, unhappy period in a zoo. Homesick and missing human contact, she was returned to the resort's cage, where she thrives on attention. She displays a remarkable ability to remember old acquaintances.
