Barbados
Filling a gap for a quality midrange hotel on this side of the island, this inviting new offering is set in an elegant three-story wooden building overlooking the beach at Belleplaine, north of Bathsheba. It offers bright modern rooms and an excellent pool area. Go for one of the upstairs rooms with polished wood floors, high ceilings and panoramic views.
It's pretty remote and there are not many places to eat close by – fortunately the food at the attached restaurant is excellent.
