Barbados (Crane Beach) Comes Up #1 of the World’s 15 Best Beach Getaways for 2015
Crane Beach
Two new, non-stop Delta flights, from JFK and Hartsfield-Jackson International in Atlanta, allow easier access to this island paradise. The hard part is choosing among Barbados’s 60 beaches—all of them public. Whether you opt for the calm waters of the west coast, aka the Platinum Coast, or the surfable waves of the east coast, it’s hard to go wrong. And when weary of the rays, there’s plenty else to do, from wreck and reef diving to touring rum plantations to spelunking through Harrison’s Cave.
Insider Tip: Sandals just unveiled its revamped property in St. Lawrence, with 11 gourmet restaurants, the longest lagoon pool in Barbados, an expanded spa, and complete refurbishment of its 280 rooms.

Without question, Barbados is the “most British” island in the Caribbean. Afternoon tea is a ritual, cricket is the national pastime (a passion, most admit), and dressing for dinner is a firmly entrenched tradition. And yet, Barbados is hardly stuffy—this is still the Caribbean, after all. Instead, Barbados is a sophisticated tropical island with a rich history, lodgings to suit every …

In the 1980s, in Barbados, both the intellectually and politically backward, bankrupt and discredited DLP and BLP should have been removed from the political parliamentary landscape of this country.
That time represented very much Barbados having been at the crossroads, socially, politically, materially, financially, with so many people of this country having their respective choices, determinations and compulsions in their own sectors as to whether to set themselves and or many others on paths to go forwards or backwards on their various trajectories.
So, that, where it was clearly the case that Barbados – by virtue of the net collective efforts and actions of many people in the particular sectors – has been able – since the 1980s – to go forward physically infrastructurally technologically, in net terms, socially politically commercially and financially, in net terms, it has been – since that time too, either been severely going backwards or stagnating.
Hence, one of the clear nexuses running through such social political commercial financial backwardness and stagnation is the said intellectually and politically destitute and disgraceful DLP and BLP and their gross, inept and reckless mismanagement of the political, governmental and other relevant affairs of this country.
So, at this juncture in the history of the existence of the nation state of Barbados, where our once beloved country in on the path to becoming a virtual failed state – there presents a very substantial opportunity for the majority of adults of this time of this country to do what the majority of adults of the 1980s failed miserably to correctly do.

Why don’t you stop being one-sided yourself before you rip yourself further apart to the point of insanity?
What’s so new about the beauty of Barbados’s beaches? Barbados always had some of the most beautiful beaches in the Caribbean and indeed in the world. That is one of the major selling points that made Barbados a popular tourist destination especially for those from less well endowed places like Canada and the UK where sand and sun are concerned.
Remember the slogan ‘Sand, Sea and Sun” or even Gabby’s song “Da beach is mine”?
What you should be concerned about is how as a people are we going to keep that major asset and important resource in good condition; not thumping your chest in boastful fits of arrogance.
Are you going to keep the coastline environmentally sound by eliminating the litter and waste dumped by so-called educated Bajans who like to see themselves as more intelligent than the others from the other places in the Caribbean?
BTW, there is more to a country than just its natural beauty. Values like discipline, decency, good service and respect for others and law and order go a long way in making a country a truly civilized place worth of admiration, not only its beaches.
So please go to the thread that discusses the Leroy Parris affair and let us see how much you measure up to those values just mentioned. You might just be returned to a balanced state of mind and get your sanity back.

Now, the ignorance of the consortium definitely knows no bounds!!!!
If by commenting on the unscrupulous actions being perpetrated in Barbados, hoping Barbadians become aware that there is a need for CHANGE, and for us to lobby for transparency, accountability and an overall better environment, which will ultimately make this island a better place, and not commenting on this post makes me unpatriotic, so be it.
Ok, tourists come to Barbados on one of the “Delta flights, from JFK and Hartsfield-Jackson International in Atlanta”; checking in at GAIA, they are met by an unfriendly Immigration Officer; after being harassed by a group of unauthorized taxi drivers, they eventually find a legitimate taxi to take them to their destination.
On their way to one of the 280 rooms Sandals has to offer, they see the piles of garbage lining the wayside; on approaching Oistins, the taxi driver tells them this is the place to be, but a stench causes them to gaze upon two skips over flowing with garbage. On reaching St. Lawrence Gap going to Scandals they see two large skips filled with garbage facing Dover pasture. The “Gap” is dead, no night life, only the drug pushers looking for a sale and the scent that fills the night air tells them a “parro” is nearby.
In the room, they surf the internet for more information about Barbados, and come across various news items such as “Lawyer and speaker of the house of assembly with-holds client’s property”, “Former prime minister and his wife the deputy speaker of the house implicated in CLICO scandal”, “Policeman remanded on drug charges, while 7 more are being investigated”, “Policeman suspected of stealing US$5,000 from police station, resigns”, “Policeman on assault charges”, “Elderly being abandoned at hospitals”, “Barbadians have long waiting periods in A&E of hospital”, “Lawyer charges government entity $766,855.24 for services that were previously done for $17,000”, “Prime minister refuses to address the island on pertinent issues”, “Barbados credit rating downgraded again”, “Environment minister can’t cope with garbage collection”, “Opposition party not united”, “Drug pushers and water sports operators on beaches harassing visitors”, and the list goes on and on.
After reading “Passengers waited 3 hours for buses”, they decide to hire a vehicle to explore the beauty of Crane Beach, only once again to be confronted with piles of garbage on both sides of the road, lots overgrown with bush, roads made impassable by road side mechanics, potholes, indiscriminate driving of public service vehicles, and road signs not clearly visible.
They decide to visit Oistins Bay Garden as suggested by the taxi man. The pungent scent of stagnant water on the pathway leading to Lexie makes them skeptical about eating there. But the real shocker comes when they discover the representative for that constituency is the minister of health.
On their return home, they reminisce about their trip to Barbados…. the poor customer service, unmannerly and unhelpful sales clerks, high prices, and they also focus on the good things as well. Their friends ask “How was your trip to Barbados?” Their reply…… “Oh, ‘Barbados is a sophisticated tropical island with a rich history’, the people are friendly, but ……………….” Their friends become uninterested at the mention of “but”.
These are some of the things that are needed to be changed in Barbados.

A beautiful place on earth is BIM, with ‘nuf good people. The issue is the nasty core factions who are destroying the country day by day by incompetence, hubris, greed, and a dollop of Colonial chip-on-the-shoulders mentality and a defiance to common sense practices thrown in for good measure; yet the same dullards are jumping for joy at any sliver of good news, no matter the origin.

I assume it was a typo, and you intended to say ““Bathsheba and the east coastline is the most rustic and untamed coast-prizing you can find anywhere.
Crane Beach is lovely, but I agree the beaches on the east cost should be #1.

Well said, BUT
What about the repeat visitors, some with 40-60 visits, who were at Ilaro Court on Wednesday evening and heard PRIME Minister Freundel Stuart give the assurance that Barbados will preserve and continue to build on the characteristics of the island that keep visitors coming back to our shores, year after year.
Included in his comments (reported in the Advocate) were:
“The RBPF has over the years contributed massively, substantially and wisely to the preservation and promotion of security in this island. No matter how charming our people may be, if when you come to Barbados you are not made to feel safe, then our charm as a people would count for nothing. In fact, it would be cancelled out by the roguery and hooliganism that could exist if we were not the people we are and if we did not have law enforcement agencies like the RBPF to ensure that we did not lapse into that form of behaviour.
“I want to say thanks to the RBPF for continuing to do the excellent work which it has been doing in preserving and promoting this country’s security. I know that the Force maintains a regular connection with the tourism actors in Barbados ensuring that like a sensitive seismograph the force registers all of those fluctuations taking place in the tourist community and making sure that it responds creatively and decisively to those changes.”
I guess he did not think to heap praise on the RBPF for its efforts at prosecuting the white-collar criminals who prey on polite, hardworking, and disciplined Bajans, who are warm in their dealings with those who come here to bask in the warmth of our hospitality.

When Paul Doyle bought The Crane in 1988, he did so with his own money and without the benefit of 40 years of tax concessions. It was an 18 room hotel built 200 years earlier. Using his own money Doyle has transformed the property to a 300 room upscale resort with all the amenities including Crane Village, offering stores, a fitness centre, restaurant, a theatre and two bars, and numerous pools throughout the beautifully landscaped property.
Worthy of commendation indeed.
But, unlike another entrepreneur who cannot stay out of the limelight and trumpeting his 280 room property, Where Exclusive is always Inclusive, Paul Doyle keeps a low profile, letting The Crane product talk for itself.
Give credit where credit is due.
