Prince of Coral

Golfers and beach bunnies alike will appreciate this little slice of luxury in the exclusive Royal Westmoreland resort. Days can be spent on the world-class golf course, unwinding in the clubhouse, or padding down to the long stretch of sand that makes up the Platinum Coast. There are plenty of amenities and options for dining onsite, but nearby Holetown is a delightful place to spend the evening – perhaps with a plate of grilled mahi mahi and a cold Banks at one of the beach-front restaurants.

The apartment is a typically Bajan mix of sleek tiles floors and bone-white coral stone walls. This design keeps the interior naturally cool, with the help of ceiling fans (and air-con in the bedrooms). Decor in white, sea foam and teal is a reminder of the sea. Not that you need a reminder with a view like this from the terrace – over the lush greenery to the sparkling Caribbean. The plush, outdoor lounge on the terrace is particularly magical at sunset when the sky streaks pink and gold.
