Friends of ours just got married in Barbados and stayed at Crystal Cove for a week with 35 guests(family and friends). Everyone, ages ranging from 3 months to 65, had a fantastic time and raved about the resort. Guests can also enjoy the poolside snackbar and a sun terrace with sun loungers and parasols. Complimentary water sports include snorkelling, sailing, boogie boarding, kayaking, windsurfing and waterskiing.
