Hilton Barbados Resort
Hotel Information: Opened in 2005, this Barbados hotel is spacious enough so that attendees in the separate conference center don't disturb vacationing couples and families. The Needham’s Point setting is 3 km (2 mi) from central Bridgetown yet isolated from the busy resort districts.
Amenity highlights: A rock garden with waterfalls divides the resort's two-level pool complex. The upper pool features a sea-view infinity edge. Rock breakwaters form two swimming coves off the resort's beachfront. The water-sports center supplies complimentary non-motorized equipment; motorized water sports and snorkeling/scuba excursions in Carlisle Bay are available for surcharges. The Careenage Bar offers live music three nights.
Insider tip: During the May–November nesting season, some 250 turtles lay eggs on the beach extending past the hotel—considered the most populous nesting site for Hawksbill turtles in the Eastern Caribbean. Guests can arrange through the hotel to accompany researchers patrolling at night for nesting and hatching turtles.
The Hilton Barbados offers 350 guestrooms and suites in two wings of six and eight stories. Furnished balconies provide views of the open Caribbean Sea to the west or Carlisle Bay and Bridgetown to the north.
Decor includes mahogany furniture, crown molding, tile floors with area rugs, Barbadian art, and upholstered reading chairs with ottomans. Other amenities include three dual-line telephones (including a bathroom phone), high-speed Internet access (surcharge), and electronic safes accommodating laptops. Bathrooms contain marble-and-wood vanities, glass-door shower stalls, and separate tubs.
