Colony Club By Elegant Hotels

Nestled in tropical gardens, this iconic hotel features a health and wellness theme. Founded as a private club in the 1940s, this award-winning hotel is built from coral stone with a plantation home style and plenty of Bajan charm. There are loads of activities including free motorised and non-motorised watersports, yoga classes and stand-up paddleboarding tours to spot sea turtles. Or unwind by one of the four lagoon pools that meander through magnificent palm-filled gardens sprinkled with waterfalls – a stay here can be as active or laid-back as you want. Begin your evening with pre-dinner cocktails at the beautiful and airy Plantation Lounge. Feast on international dishes with a Bajan twist at the Laguna restaurant which serves healthy dishes. Enjoy happy hour and stunning sunsets at the stylish Sunset Bar & Deck which offers themed dining events such as the superb Seaside Grill night. A range of health-conscious treats are also available throughout. Visit the hotel’s Rum Vault, the first of its kind on Barbados and featuring a collection of 150 international rums.
