Barbados' all-inclusive resorts

All-inclusive resorts are the best choices for guests and travelers who prefer not to have to think of money once they get to their destination.  All-inclusives are also great for the budget, since everything you need – the hotel rooms, meals, drinks (including alcohol), amenities and some activities – are all included in the price of the trip.  That way you can relax, sip your cocktail and enjoy the sun and sea all without having to spend another dime.

Many hotels and resorts in Barbados offer all-inclusive accommodations so guests can maximize their time in the island.  Barbados Beach Club is an example, located in the beautiful south coast, just 5 miles if you're coming from Grantley Adams International Airport.  The beach club is located in the busy area that offers shopping and night entertainment.  It's also near Bridgetown, Barbados' capital city.

Here are a few other all-inclusive resorts in Barbados that you can enjoy your stay at.  Mango Bay Resorts has many choices of activities that you will enjoy.  Almond Resorts is also in Barbados with three different all-inclusive resorts to choose from.  These are just a few of the many choices you will have when trying to find an all-inclusive resort in Barbados.

What to look for

When choosing an all-inclusive resort, there are many things that differ, such as the types of restaurants the hotel has, and more.  Some might only have one main restaurant; while others will have 4 or more that you can choose from.  Having a large choice of bars can be nice as well, especially if you’ll want a drink while swimming in the pool, or late at night while on the beach.

Typical all-inclusive resorts will also have non-motorized sports included as well, as well as shows that you can watch at night.  As you can see, there is a lot that can vary from resort to resort.

The eastern and northern coasts of Barbados are famous for their rugged, untamed beauty.  This is the area where you'll find Sam Lord's Castle, St. Philip Parish, Animal Flower Cave and St. Lucy Parish, along with quaint villages and smaller resorts.  The view along these coasts is priceless and if your all-inclusive package includes a drive in this area, you're in luck.  You might also want to brave the rugged beaches and surf because the waves here are challenging.

On the southern and western part of Barbados, you'll find calmer water and smoother beaches because it's protected from the roughness of the Atlantic.  You can enjoy some laid back times here because the beaches are perfect for sunbathing and the seas are calm enough for swimming.

In the center of the island, you'll find villages and sugar plantations scattered all over the area.  Mount Hillaby, at 340 meters, is the highest point in Barbados.  This area is filled with great views and historical places you might want to visit.

What to bring

Because all-inclusive resorts offer you a taste of everything, it's best to come dressed for the occasion.  Bring your shirts and shorts along with your swimwear and accessories.  Barbados is an island that prefers you to be covered up when you to town so swimwear is restricted to the beaches.  If the all-inclusive package includes some formal dinner events, you'll probably have to bring a dress or at least a jacket.  No need to bring your sports gear, though.  Most non-motorized watersports equipment are inclusive in the price, although rentals are available throughout the island.
