Truly a complementary blend of the traditional and the modern, the Savannah is the most prestigious of the Gems. From here, a world apart, one is just ten minutes away from down town Bridgetown and twenty-fine minutes from the International Airport. Almost two hundred years old, its original main building is nicely complimented by the ultra modern architecture and tropical foliage of its newly built extension. Together, they comprise ninety-eight of the most luxurious rooms on the Barbados South coast. Two restaurants offer a delightful mix of Caribbean and International cuisine and three bars, including the ever-popular ‘swim-up' bar mix exotic tropical cocktails. Nightly local entertainment (including weekly Managers' Cocktail Parties) add sparkle to one of the finest holiday experiences that guests can expect on the South Coast of Barbados. Boasting a beachfront location, the Savannah also offers its guest the choice between two fresh water pools, one of which meanders through the length of the dramatic setting of the new wing. Together with the fitness and beauty facilities for both women and men, Swedish massage, facials, manicures and pedicures, help ensure a leisurely pampering experience. The Savannah Hotel is within walking distance to the famous Garrison Race Track. This is the only horse racing track in the island. Also in the immediate area is the Barbados Museum and Historical Society.
