The Crane is the best of all worlds—it offers peace and quiet or activity if want. It is designed, inside and out, with great care. You can get all that you want on site, and with the exception of some dinners off site, a great island tour, and a venture to Bridgetown, there was little need to leave. There is an outstanding staff from groundskeepers to managers! Joan who greets you on arrival and assists you throughout your stay is knowledgeable and kind as are most Barbadians we met everywhere on island.
