Silver Point Hotel
Information & Amenities
Hotel Information: Driven by steady tradewinds, the Atlantic Ocean arrives just east of Barbados' southernmost point in long, rolling swells and medium surf, making this hotel a prime destination for kite-surfers, windsurfers, and surfers. Others prize the breezy, peaceful locale and the panoramic views of the majestic ocean.
Amenity highlights: Although the ocean here is seldom safe for other than expert swimmers, guests at the Silver Point Hotel can refresh and unwind in a medium-sized pool with a poolside bar. King-sized daybeds on the pool deck are sheltered by canopies for shade and privacy. Sunbathing is available on a 200-yard beach washed by surf and a sunning lawn furnished with lounge chairs and umbrellas located just above the beach.
Property Amenities
Secluded on a wide, white-sand beach washed by the Atlantic surf, this all-suite hotel is on Barbados' south coast, 9.5 miles from Bridgetown. An independently operated water-sports center is a five-minute walk down the beach.
Silver Point's small outdoor café serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
This hotel renovated its beachfront in December 2007. Updates include a new wooden deck, swimming pool, and a restaurant and bar.
