Map of Barbados \ The St James luxury accommodationThe St James luxury apartments Barbados are right on the beach.

The St James is positioned right at the centre of Paynes Bay, considered to be one of the finest beaches in Barbados, on the fabulous Platinum Coast.

The West coast where the St James is located is home to many of the island's most luxurious hotels and private villas, chic polo clubs and golf developments, sprawling seaside mansions sitting on miles of powdery white sand beaches lapped by the calm, crystal clear waters of the Caribbean. This coast, with its dazzling tropical sunsets, is perfect for water skiing, smooth sailing on sleek catamarans with stops to snorkel over coral reefs with the sea turtles, or simply soaking in the warm, crystalline waters sipping a delicious rum punch.

Whilst Barbados tends towards a reputation for the rich and famous, it has a huge variety of restaurants, and holiday makers can enjoy a good value holiday whilst indulging in the occasional taste of luxury.

The St James offers you the perfect opportunity to do this – its luxurious apartments right on the beach allow you to prepare some of your own meals if you wish. You can even fix your own barbecue on the sands and dine under the stars, with the gentle sounds of the ocean around you.

Barbados is the Caribbean's most revisited destination. It is a vibrant, nearly 400 year old island community - one of the most beautiful places on earth to spend a truly memorable holiday. Barbados has a tropical climate and is hot and sunny year-round with pleasantly cooling trade winds.
