On the western shores of Barbados, sitting on 1,000 feet of white, coral-sand
beach beside the sparkling waters of the Caribbean Sea, you'll find the idyllic
world class resort known as Sandy Lane. The picturesque hotel has served as
a luxurious getaway for more than 50 years, leaving an indelible memory in
the mind of guests with its classic ambiance and first class service.
Mario Bevilacqua Von Gunderrode, Resident Manager at Sandy Lane since
2012, gives a brief recap on the history of the resort and how it has evolved
over the years. "Originally built in 1961 on the site of an old sugar plantation
by Ronald Tree, Sandy Lane firmly established itself as the premier address
in the Caribbean and has hosted many celebrities, business personalities and
royalty."
