A Barbados Luxury Boutique Hotel best describes Little Arches, one of the most charming and distinctive properties on the island of Barbados. It is a well hidden privately owned boutique hotel with great views of Miami Beach on the south coast of Barbados, and in fact used to be a privately owned villa

It has been described as a 10 rooms and suites, absolute gem of a hotel, with great Caribbean colours in the rooms and charming blue rustic pottery all over the place, and is one of the top places in the Caribbean for a romantic honeymoon getaway. It is the personal touches that keep it ahead of any rivals. There are wrought iron four poster beds, the rooms are somewhat non standard in shape or size, in fact higgledy-piggledy may well be the best description. Add to this local pottery handbasins in the bathrooms, and double hammocks around the pool, make it perfect for that honeymoon escape. Add to this you’ll not meet anyone you know!!

It lives up to this description, and in fact is a real discovery, absolutely right for people who like personalised hotels with colourful rooms, just perfect for a honeymoon getaway.

There is no doubt at all that family owned hotels offer something that a large resort cannot, and here Little Arches scores hugely. This hotel has a real ‘at home’ feeling to it, and also that touch of exclusivity which sets it apart. The beauty of it is that it is tucked away down a sleepy beachfront road, close to the beach, yet far from the madding crowd, so far as to seem remote, even isolated. There really are views from Little Arches of Miami, or Enterprise Beach, and the incredibly colours of blue in the sea to die for.

The location is superb, being a few steps to the beach and a stroll from Oistins which will give you some action on Fridays after a few days of utter relaxation.

A top class luxury boutique hotel should have a high class restaurant, and Little Arches doesn’t disappoint in this respect either. The Café Luna restaurant offers al fresco dining that is of a far better quality than you will find around the Caribbean, and that includes some supposedly world class establishments. There is no better place in Barbados to dine out under the stars overlooking Oistins Bay. If you love great salads, then you will find them here, or perfectly pan fried shrimp cakes, and in the winter the Saturday night Lobster certainly brings in the crowds.

In fact having stayed at Little Arches, and sampled La Luna it is unlikely you will ever want to stay in a large impersonal hotel again.

It is fair to say that if you are looking for the perfect escape, the total romantic honeymoon getaway, then you will have found it at Little Arches. It is the best of all worlds in that it is totally private, very relaxed, absolutely a personalised experience, and at the same time very stylish and relaxed.
