Casa Crystal Shores

Barbados is one of the unique, and stunning travel destinations around; from crystal clear oceans to stunning sunsets, it’s a dreamlike island that is just a plane ride away.  It’s no surprise Barbados beaches are renowned, their flat white sand and miles of coral shore beaches are a sight to see. The West Coast offers countless stunning snorkelling and diving opportunities thanks to the coral reefs, while the South Coast has calmer waters, inshore reefs and tidal pools. Some must see beaches on Barbados include Miami Beach, Rockley Beach, Bottom Bay and Mullins Beach, the latter being one of the most popular spots on the island.  There is, of course, more to Barbados than beautiful beaches, as you head inland you can explore history-rich spots, such as endless fields of sugar canes that are dotted with plantation houses. If you’re after an incredibly moving and educational experience you can visit a plantation house for a trip back in time.  While you’re getting a taste for the culture, you must treat yourself to some of the islands rum. It’s internationally recognised for its quality, and a trip to the local distilleries (with tasting) makes for a fun day. While you’re taking a gastronomic journey of Barbados, make sure to try the local delicacy, flying fish - this is best enjoyed watching the sunset while live reggae plays. If you want a truly unforgettable experience, head to Oistins Friday Night Fish Fry where Bajans put on a show with their Caribbean dance moves to live reggae, and guests indulge in the island’s cuisine.  This Villa is located on the famous Sandy Lane beach. It is near the iconic Sandy Lane Beach Hotel, a luxury resort.
