Best Caribbean Hotels for Your Vacations

Although holiday prices in the Caribbean are high you certainly get what you pay for and Barbados has some of the world's most luxurious hotels. If you want value for money in a great location why not try the Sea Breeze hotel? Situated on the Maxwell Coast Road near Oistins, the south coast hotel Sea Breeze ticks all the boxes for location.

It is only 25 minutes drive from the airport. You can also get to the island's capital Bridgetown to do some duty free shopping by traveling for the same length of time in the opposite direction. The hotel is only 15 minutes walk away from the liveliest party spot on the island, St Lawrence Gap where a number of bars and nightclubs like the Ship Inn jostle for attention. 

In terms of beaches you don't need to go anywhere as Sea Breeze is located on one of the best bathing spots on the island. The water is bathtub warm and spectacularly beautiful and although there can be good waves at certain times of year it is mostly family friendly for swimming.

Beach chairs, towels and loungers are all provided free of charge. Water sports are an ideal option here with everything covered including jet skiing, wind surfing and kayaking. If you prefer fresh water the hotel has two swimming pools and a pool bar. 

In terms of rooms there are various different types with the best being deluxe Ocean View. The staff at the hotel are very friendly and you are sure to find the local Bajan manner charming. According to a review by Foxeye from Uxbridge on Tripadvisor it is "a nice hotel in a good location which is excellent value." Overall 84% of the ratings on Trip Advisor are favourable.

Guyana is unlike the rest of the Caribbean (it is part of South America) and this fascinating country is covered in pristine rainforest. Guyana does not have great beaches but if you want to see a unique country which is excellent for ecotourism then consider staying in the Pegasus Hotel. From the Pegasus it is possible to organize trips into the interior to see the incredible Kaieteur Falls.

Located on the Potaro River the Kaieteur Falls is 741 feet high and one of the most voluminous waterfalls in the world. The waterfall is to be found in the most stunning setting imaginable within the Kaieteur National Park. 

Although the Pegasus is run in a country where basic facilities such as electricity and clean water sometimes go missing, the efforts of the staff to overcome these problems is always impressive. In fact you will struggle to find nicer people anywhere in the world. Overall 82% of the ratings on Trip Advisor are favorable.

To get back to luxury why not stay in Antigua which has a beautiful sandy beach for every day of the year. There is currently a great deal by Thomson Tailormade for seven nights at the 3 star Grand Pineapple Beach Resort from £699 per person, a saving of £573 per person.
