Sugar Cane Club Hotel & SpaSt Peter, Barbados

The Sugar Cane Club Hotel & Spa is a small, adults-only retreat set among peaceful countryside, offering a lengthy list of spa treatments making it an ideal place to embrace the laidback Bajan way of life. Well-preened gardens wrap around the property and are home to palm trees, plants and pagodas – as well as free-roaming resident monkeys.

You can catch the hotel’s shuttle bus to Almond Beach, five minutes down the road. Another popular daytrip option is exploring the historic architecture and modern shops in Speightstown, which is 10 minutes’ drive away.

Pork belly marinated with Asian spices, coconut chicken curry and seafood linguine are the types of dishes that are rustled up at the main à la carte restaurant, plus there are regular buffet theme nights here, too. Thursday nights mark the Caribbean barbecue buffet, where you can listen to a steel band and tuck in to Bajan cuisine hot off the grill. You can follow it up with a drink at the hotel’s Caribbean rum shop.

Take a break from the sun and get a rally going on the squash court, or hire a mountain bike* and set off to explore the island on two wheels.

A full roster of treatments* – including lots with a Bajan twist – are on the menu at the spa. You can treat your toes to a Caribbean Sea pedicure*, or unwind with a Barbados Rumba massage*.There’s a small gym with a handful of cardio and resistance machines.
