Crane confusion?

[diannezzz]

Is the beach free to the public and do we need to enter through the hotel at Crane? We'll be visiting from Constellation and will probably be in casual clothes. We're hoping to rent beach chairs, can we do this on the beach? Also can we have drinks at the bar in casual wear? Thanks for the help, we can't wait to see this place! dianne

All beaches on Barbados are open to the public, so you can walk around the Crane property (to the left) and access the beach, not real easy access from what I’ve seen.

 

If you are going to have drinks or lunch anyway, enter the hotel and pay a small charge to access the beach through their establishment. When you have a drink or lunch the charge is credited so it doesn’t cost you anything. Plus you get to see the inside and it is quite beautiful.

 

I am told that vendors have chairs and refreshments available for hire. We don’t beach-it there anymore, just lunch and dinner in the A’zure Restaurant.

 

Casual clothes are fine for lunch, but no bathing suits. Shorts are OK.

 

Have a wonderful time on the island! :)
