Sandy Lane, Barbados Luxury,


This magnificent beach is situated on the west coast of Barbados, just south of the Holetown area.

The Caribbean waters here are very calm, making this a great spot for swimming. Jet skis and catamarans pass by, along with the occasional local fishing boat.

Widely known as the "Sandy Lane" beach, this stretch takes its name from the luxurious Sandy Lane Hotel which is nestled in the mahogany trees, directly off this beach. First opened in 1961, this magnificent hotel has gained a reputation as one of the finest resorts in the Caribbean, and has welcomed royalty, celebrities, and the business elite.

Most recently the resort made headlines as the venue for the wedding of golf sensation Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren.

The Sandy Lane Estate is known for its luxurious houses. Members of the Sandy Lane Property Owners' Association have use of the facilities adjoining the beach area of the Sandy Lane Hotel. If you choose to rent a house in Sandy Lane Estate, you will likely also have access to these facilities.

The nearby Holetown area is teeming with restaurants - from casual beach bars to gourmet restaurants. The area is also well known for its duty-free shopping and nightlife.
