Sandy Lane

St James, Barbados, Barbados

Sandy Lane is the Barbados grande dame, but its Treehouse Club is the quiet hero: free for resident guests, with a toddler corner upstairs and a proper teen den below. Older children can join sports camps in tennis, golf, football and water skiing, so a holiday that suits a nine-year-old and a fifteen-year-old at once is genuinely possible — while you take the spa or the three golf courses.
