If you like country house hotels, and you are looking for an exclusive and luxury tropical vacation then check out Villa Nova in Barbados.

A Country House Hotel carries with an image of a resplendent house somewhere in the south of England, so to discover a country house hotel hidden away in Barbados, where you could spend a luxury tropical vacation is an exciting discovery.

This is just plain good old fashioned luxury, where you could have a really exclusive vacation staying in an all suite hotel in the tropics called Villa Nova Villa Nova has a great history involving British Prime Ministers and even Royalty so to have it converted into a modern hotel with all the conveniences you associate with the very top end of the market is amazing.

An all suite hotel the Villa Nova has just 28 beautifully furnished and spacious accommodations. Each one has a private terrace with tables and chairs for in room dining and very smart sun beds known as steamer chairs for plain good old fashioned relaxation with a good book and a cold drink. The bathrooms in the suites have both bath and separate walk in shower, and as you might expect the toiletries are all top of the range. Nina Campbell, top interior designer designed the suites and they really are the epitome of luxury, and yet at the same time being really comfortable.
