The Crane Resort, a Beachfront Vacation in Barbados
Written by Vacation Idea.com Travel Editors.
Why Go
The Crane Resort is a beachfront vacation getaway on the South Eastern coast of Barbados in the Caribbean.
Spend your vacation relaxing surrounded by beautiful Atlantic ocean views. Feel the stress melt away in the resort pool, and lounge on a fascinating wrap-around balcony after coming out of an open-air bath in your private apartment.
Crane Beach, with its blue waters, tropical breeze and pink, powdery sand, is perfect for romantic walks and rejuvenation. The water near the beach is calm, since it is protected by a natural coral reef.
The Crane Resort offers two different types of accommodations - resort apartments and private residences. The apartments are located in the Crane's original historic hotel and feature hardwood floors, 12' ceilings and antique furniture. Many have kitchens and wrap-around balconies with spectacular ocean views.
Dining
Dine with a view at the elegant beachfront L'Azure restaurant which serves a range of classic and Caribbean foods.
Zen restaurant, opening in 2005, will offer classic Thai and Japanese cuisine in traditional Tatami rooms.
