Boutique Beach Hotel of the Year: The House, Barbados It’s hard to stand out on Barbados’ Platinum Coast, but that’s precisely what Elegant Hotels has managed to do with their tiny jewel of a hotel, The House. There are 34 rooms in this luxurious but hip retreat on a prized sliver of beach on the West Coast, with lovely little touches like Nespresso machines and a unlimited complimentary champagne to start each day. And it doesn’t hurt that the house restaurant is Daphne’s, the Italian eatery that’s one of Barbados’ best.
