Here are some quick tips to get the most out of your upcoming stay at The Crane Resort.

The weather in Barbados is generally fantastic with over 3,000 hours of glorious sunshine annually. The daily temperature is usually a warm 30-31 degrees Celsius. The rainy season runs from June to November, and the hottest months tend to be August and September. Barbados is fortunate as it is usually spared from the passage of hurricanes due to its enviable position slightly east of the archipelago of Caribbean islands.
