Explore the Caribbean on an All-Inclusive Barbados Retreat & luxury Royal

Imagine Cruising is offering a glamorous All-Inclusive Barbados Retreat & Intimate Royal Clipper Voyage with departures in 2022 and 2023

-

THE Caribbean is one of those bucket list-worthy destinatio­ns thanks to its pictureper­fect white sand beaches, towering palm trees, crystallin­e ocean waters and ridiculous­ly pretty landscapes.

Thanks to Imagine Cruising, you can now explore some of the region’s best highlights while enjoying some serious luxury.

That’s because the All-Inclusive Barbados Retreat & Intimate Royal Clipper Voyage not only includes a seven-night all-inclusive luxury hotel stay in Barbados, but you’ll also get to enjoy an extraordin­ary cruise on the lavish

Royal Clipper. Your luxury getaway will begin with a stay at the beautiful four-star Savannah Beach Club which sits right on a palm-fringed shore, not to mention it’s located in the Garrison Historic Area which happens to be a UNESCO world heritage site.

There’s everything you need for a dreamy holiday whether that involves lounging on the beach in the sunshine, or doing some exploring. There’s plenty of adventure to be had too in capital Bridgetown where historic architectu­re and a vibrant foodie scene await, while the ancient undergroun­d labyrinth of Harrison’s Cave is a must-visit with its crystallis­ed limestone walls and deep lagoons.

The glamour doesn’t stop there. From Barbados, you’ll embark on an extraordin­ary cruise onboard the magnificen­t Royal Clipper, on a full board basis.

The ship, the tallest in the Star Clippers fleet, offers up a seriously incredible experience, with every luxury you could imagine from an elegant three-tiered dining room serving gourmet dishes to a well-stocked library and a spa – and you’ll even get a

FREE Inside to Outside upgrade. Plus, with only 227 passengers onboard it will make for an intimate atmosphere, not to mention there’s a relaxed ambience with an easy-going dress code. There’ll be little to compare to the feeling of flying across the blue waters as she unfurls her 42 sails.

Then there’s the itinerary itself which is packed with once-in-alifetime destinatio­ns including the Grenadines, St Lucia and Martinique – all while enjoying a traditiona­l sailpowere­d seafaring experience.

The first port of call will be to the Grenadines, where verdant

rainforest­s and sun-drenched beaches await. In fact, they’re so pretty that they’ve been handpicked by the Captain for the trip!

From there you’ll sail on to St George’s in Grenada, where the main export is nutmeg which infuses the air.

Meanwhile, the horseshoes­haped promenade is lined with colourful fishing boats for a picturesqu­e backdrop.

The beautiful uninhabite­d islands of Tobago Cays in the Grenadines will be next on the itinerary, before sailing on to Kingstown in St Vincent and Admiralty Bay in Bequia.

A trip to the French outpost of Martinique is also on the cards, where foodies can get their fill thanks to the hybrid cuisine such as chilli-stuffed crab and cod fritters with their spicy, tantalisin­g blend of flavours.

Before heading back to

Barbados you’ll find yourself visiting the breathtaki­ng island of St Lucia, where intrepid explorers will be able to discover mountains, dense rainforest, fertile valleys and banana plantation­s.

Prices are from £2,999pp including the all-inclusive

Barbados stay and the Royal Clipper cruise, with departures available in 2022 and 2023.

The price includes flights, transfers, the hotel stay and the cruise. Find out more and book at www.imaginecru­ising.co.uk/ clipper-caribbean.
