Wherever you choose to stay there’s plenty to do on the island and whether you visit one of the 3 cities, or lots of quaint locations, you’ll find a perfect spot. Each coast on the island is different, and it’s worth taking a day tour around the island or hiring a car to experience how diverse the coasts are and what they can offer. With great food, good shopping, nightlife to explore and plenty of beaches to relax on, you’re sure to soak up the Caribbean vibe.

Accommodation

The perfect retreat for couples and honeymooners, The Crane offers a unique blend of old world elegance and 21st century comfort, casual luxury and natural beauty. The hotel was built in 1887, and last year underwent extensive renovations to become the luxurious beauty that now stands. There are still some rennovations to the hotel. Updated details as below...but you'lll find that the powder soft beach at The Crane has been voted one of the top ten best beaches in the world recently by a leading lifestyle magazine, so it's still well worth the visit. Just 10 minutes from the airport, and with just 98 rooms, the hotel is a break from the 'norm' and due to it’s secluded location it’s a perfect place to chill and enjoy the naturally beautiful surroundings.
