Prepare to be impressed with your next stay in Barbados when you book a room at Blue Monkey Hotel and Beach Club, where years of planning and revamping are about to pay off. What was once Tropical Escape Hotel and Blue Monkey Bar underwent a complete redesign and retrofit to showcase luxury, relaxation and Caribbean beauty. The property prepares for a summer reopening when it will unveil its new look and vibe along with its new name.
Located along the west coast of Barbados in the Saint James area of the Platinum Coast, this property has one of the most desirable locations on the island. It will offer 28 suites, 5-star service and in-room check-in, along with private plunge pools and powder rooms in select suites.
The reopening gives visitors the perfect place to rest up when visiting Barbados, which hosts great festivals all year-round, like Carifesta, celebrating Caribbean art from Aug. 22 to 31, and Barbados Food and Rum Festival from Nov. 6 to 9. In fact, there isn’t a single month when there isn’t something fun to do, thanks to the island-wide celebration known as We Gatherin’, an event in which each parish takes a turn hosting events showcasing the unique culture and personality of each local community.
