Virgin Holidays View
This adults-only, all-inclusive Almond resort is perfect for a relaxing holiday in the Barbados sun. Situated on the west coast and overlooking the Caribbean sea, it’s a peaceful place to while away sunny afternoons with a good book and a refreshing drink. Tucked away and intimate, there’s a split-level swimming pool and a full-service spa, offering couples massage, aromatherapy salt scrubs and body wraps or build up an appetite for dinner by playing a few games of tennis. The three à la carte restaurants will tempt you to dine in house or lively Bridgetown is just a short drive away and well worth exploring. Tommy’s Bar is a true Bajan rum shop and a great place to round off another day in paradise.
