Barbados has long been defined by its grand Sandy Lane resort; but for in-the-know travelers, the best way to experience the island is at its smaller hotels and resorts, places that ooze Barbados charm in a smaller, more intimate package.

But we’re here to help. From boutique all-inclusives to modern, design-forward luxury hotels, here are our six favorite small resorts in Barbados.
