Little Good Harbour in Barbados would be one of the ideal vacation places in Barbados for anyone who is looking for a quaint secluded get-away from it all vacation.
Little Good Harbour is a newly and tastefully converted coral stone warehouse with stunning views both up and down a deserted lovely beach. This is an absolute gem
It could easily be described as one of the best Barbados boutique hotels, and you could well find it on the best of Barbados 2006 list of hotels.
On approaching the hotel the colourfully painted Bajan styled cottages are on the right hand side, but you really don't notice them because they are well camouflaged by the tropical vegetation that surrounds them.
If you look to the left you will see the hotel's waterside bar and restaurant called the 'Fish Pot'. It would be fair to say it looks as it is, a classy restaurant, which boasts great service and food, accompanied by the sound of the sea crashing onto the beach below.
Before I wax too lyrical, I have to admit, that the Little Good Harbour is my idea of paradise, it is in an idyllic location, and in many ways is a throw back to Barbados the way it used to be 20 years ago.
My advice if you want to stay at Little Good Harbour, so eloquently described as 'a cluster of cottages around a swimming pool' , is to try to get one of the elegant and comfortable rooms on the beach side of the road.
From the balcony of your suite, you can watch the fishermen below - a reminder of a bygone era to match the colonial decor of your room. You choose whether to frolic on the beach or by the pool, but the real social scene happens at the Fish Pot, where everyone comes to sample the fabulous dishes.

I loved everything about Little Good Harbour especially the cottage with its large sitting area & kitchen, and the spacious room & bathroom.The pathways through the green foliage, and the sound of the birds will live with me for a long time.
This is a great and well kept secret, and whilst the owners may wish otherwise, please don't tell anyone about it, just keep quiet!!
