Hotel Overview
Cherished for its casual luxury and warm hospitality, this splendid beach is protected by a natural coral reef just offshore, and touted as the first resort ever to grace the Caribbean. Glide through crystal waters in one of four sparkling pools, including an infinity-edge design, and an even more unusual version that teeters on the edge of a cliff. Guests will enjoy six swimming pools, two tennis courts, four restaurants, two bars, and a colorful shopping village. Lush coconut groves linger on this gorgeous tropical landscape dusted in rosy sand, boasting cascading pools and the best swimming on the island.
Housing a trio of fantastic dining venues, the hotel retains some of the most delicious menu items in the Caribbean. Dine at L'Azure Restaurant for a tempting range of classic island dinners, fresh seafood and ocean-view seating. Thai and Japanese cuisine unite at Zen Restaurant, offering a succulent sushi bar, private dining options and soothing Tatami, rice-straw crafted rooms.
Kids ages 4-12 will love the Calypso Kids Club. Located within the Crane Village, children will take part in a variety of fun-filled activities such as arts and crafts, movies, magic, and more. Babysitting services are also available.
Enjoy high-ceiling rooms, hardwood floors, and authentic antique furnishings. Relax on enormous four-poster beds carved from mahogany, or for even more luxurious accommodation, spend a night in a magnificent Penthouse Villa, with floor-to-ceiling louvered doors, stone floors, a gourmet kitchen, and extraordinary views of the island. Private Residences are also available, equipped with opulent amenities such as coral stone walls, private plunge pools and all the privacy you can envision.

Dec 24, 2024SUCH AN AMAZING PLACE
This was my 10th visit to The Crane, and I still love it! I came for my friend`s birthday and we stayed in building 4 ground floor room with a private pool. This building has received some upgrades ie new kitchen and equipment, new patio windows and new showers. These rooms are huge and equipped with 2 bathrooms, huge bedroom, dining table and a sofa that converts to a very comfy double bed. The beach, as per usual was immaculate with new comfy sunlounges and a new beach bar at the back which held barbecue evenings with some excellent entertainment such as incredible fire eaters and a dj playing disco classics. A great new addition. Love jumping these waves, I spend hours in the turquoise water, lots of fun. You may want to check that your bikini bottoms are still in place! The grocery store has a varied selection of foods, a cafe serving delicious cakes and several excellent restaurants on site. In addition there are local crafts people selling their wares and they make some amazing products, its worth taking the time to have a look, I bought several jewellery pieces from a lady called Silver, great value and so unique. The staff are very helpful and friendly, with a big shout out to Cheryl Weekes on the front desk, who went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional. The Crane is in a quiet spot, so if you want to relax, this the perfect place in the perfect location, however taxis are plentiful should you want to explore or go to the West Coast. I can`t wait to return next year.

Traditional Bajan Hospitality at its best.
Thank you for a beautiful bajan break at The Crane. The beach was crazily gorgeous....we laughed every morning as we felt the soft white sand beneath our toes and heard the crash of the waves on the shore. The pools, bars and restaurants on site were perfect. Shout out to Zen; you may not think you need Thai food in Barbados- trust me you do! The duck was melt in the mouth delish. Also Cedric, Jonte, Sonia at The Azure, Suzanne and Jason at The Carriage house gave exceptional service.This was in keeping with the traditional welcome given by such a classic historic hotel. I could go on but won't...don't hesitate just book! I hope we get a chance to visit again but if not will always treasure our week in paradise! Thank you. Happy Christmas. Diolch yn fawr xxx

Thank you Crane Resort for exceeding our expectations as first time guests.
The staff were very personable & attentive to all of our inquiries. Karen, in the front office, was very accommodating & considerate on our final morning when we had a special request. The resort was large enough we didn’t feel the need to travel outside of it. Beach & pool chairs were always available. Food & drink were excellent at every location we tried.
