Free nights offer in gorgeous 4* Barbados bounty with free watersports

A sophisticated, exclusive resort with a wonderfully sheltered beach perfect for sitting back, relaxing and watching the beautiful people go by. Wining and dining can be an expensive affair but the fine restaurants and chic wine bars are the perfect way to end a lazy day on the beach.

You might even spot a celebrity or two as you sample some first rate international cuisine at the famed restaurants that St James has to offer. Some of the top hotels in Barbados are in St James and naturally a whole host of superior facilities are made to match, including a superb 18-hole golf course.

Barbados is the 'Little England' of the Caribbean, but not so much so that the locals have given up rotis for kidney pies, or rum for bitter ale. Bajans, as the islanders call themselves, are as West Indian as any of their neighbours and have tended to appropriate rather than adopt English customs.

You'll notice this the first time you check out a local cricket match, since the gentlemanly English game has a totally different rhythm here. Nonetheless, there are old stone Anglican churches in every parish, horse races on Saturdays and portraits of Queen Liz hanging on plenty of walls.
