There’s something rather civilized about sipping a glass of champagne while you’re having breakfast on the beach. It’s moments like these that define the tranquil sophistication of The House, the Elegant Hotels boutique hotel that’s easily the best adults-only hotel in Barbados — and one of the best such properties in all of the Caribbean.

There's a free champagne breakfast included every day at The House.
