Casual elegance inspired by the tranquil atmosphere and infused with impeccable service from your very own Ambassador sets The House at Tamarind Cove apart from other Caribbean luxury resorts. Feeling like the master of a genie who says, "Your wish is my command", guests at The House need only to be able to verbalize their wishes and desires to see them fulfilled by skilled Ambassadors. Dreaming of a romantic dinner for two on the beach, or on your balcony? How about champagne cocktails while you wade in the surf at sunset? Just ask your Ambassador and voila - you are living your dream.
A limousine or luxury BMW awaits your arrival at the airport for your transport in style to The House. Approaching the castle-style entrance, the car glides slowly over the wooden bridge, crossing a lake flanked in water lilies. You feel as though you're stepping into the pages of a fairy tale. Colorful bougainvillea and palm trees sway in the gentle breeze as you look out to the sparkling blue Caribbean Sea. Part of the Elegant Hotels Group, The House and neighboring Tamarind Cove Hotel provide guests with a choice of four pools and three restaurants. Water taxis also whisk guests to other Elegant Hotel properties nearby.
The comfortable 42 rooms and suites each have marble floors, down pillow top beds with Frette linens, down pillows and comforter. Turndown service includes a light bedtime snack by candlelight and your slippers will be waiting for you alongside the bed. The bath displays aromatherapy products by Ephemer and Starfish Oils from Jamaica for a luxurious bathing experience. All rooms are air conditioned with sea views, hair dryers, and coffee makers. In each mini-bar, the first item is complimentary. Enjoy the afternoon hors d'ovres in your room each day with a cool drink.
All three restaurants and bars on Barbados, that proudly wear the Elegant Hotels signature crest, give you a taste of some of the Caribbean's best tropical fare. Breakfast, cooked to order, is included in the room rate. Room service is available 24 hours for anything you want anywhere you want it - just ask your personal Ambassador. Located next to The House, Daphne's Restaurant, a renowned culinary experience in England, embraces open-air dining for lunch and dinner. The short walk along the beach or through the covered walkway sets the scene for this exquisite meal.
English tea is served every afternoon, just like you were in merry old England, and happy hour includes champagne and wine while you watch the sunset over the Caribbean Sea as tiki torches light up the beach. Daphne's dinner menu features light soups and salads, pasta, seafood, pork, lamb, and beef entrees such as lobster and shrimp risotto, grilled mahi mahi with Marsala, peperonata and zucchini, and rib of beef with roasted squash and pesto. Top off a sumptuous entree with a baked lemon tart, selection of ice creams, or Italian cheeses with Carta di Musica. An after-dinner drink cart is available to serve yourself.
The beach experience at The House is sublime - a cool water spritz, fresh fruit, cold towels, cold drinks, or a massage - what more could any sun worshipper want? Swim in one of four pools kindly shared between the loving sister hotels. Plus, water sports are complimentary, which provides so much to do in that big pool called the Caribbean Sea. Walk the beach and snorkel the reefs, water ski, Jet ski or scuba diving. All are available, just ask your Ambassador to arrange it.
If you can imagine it, The House at Tamarind Cove will make it happen. The ultimate vacation sanctuary in Barbados, one of the Caribbean's friendliest and most sophisticated islands in paradise. All you have to do...is ask.
