Stay at Crystal Springs, one of Barbados' most spectacular beachfront estates, on 1.7 acres. Consists of 8 bedroom suites: 3 bedrooms in the main house, 2 in the adjoining annex, connected by a 'bridge' spanning the natural water course that bisects the property, and 3 others in cottages on the grounds. First constructed in the 1940s, Crystal Springs was redesigned by Oliver Messel in the 1960s and the current owners have faithfully maintained the characteristically theatrical ambiance. Guests are looked after by a full staff, supervised by a villa manager, including a butler, cook, maids, laundress, night watchmen and boatman. | |
