Fairmont Royal Pavillion is the perfect tropical hideaway, offering colonial splendour and attentive service on Barbados’ glamorous west coast.  Newly refurbished in 2017, the cool, sophisticated rooms and suites enjoy unobstructed views across the lush gardens to the sparkling Caribbean waters.  The Beachfront Junior Suites enjoy direct beach access – and what a beach!  This is Barbados’ platinum coast and guests at Fairmont are treated to a gorgeous sweep of powdery soft white sand and a stunning vista of sparkling turquoise sea fading to an azure horizon.  By dusk, with the sun drops into the water in vibrant shades of pinks, the hotel’s beachfront restaurant is a picturesque setting for your evening drinks and dining. Guests at Fairmont Royal can enjoy the resort pool, tennis courts and the range of water sports that make the most of the beautiful beach setting, including kayaks, paddleboats, hobie wave sailboats and snorkel gear.  Or choose a swim with turtles activity – or make time to sightsee; the hotel is a half hour north of the capital Bridgetown’s historic UNESCO world heritage Garrison area.
