# Take Advantage of the Facilities at The Crane
**Take Advantage of the Facilities at The Crane**
Whether your idea of the perfect Barbados vacation is something leisurely where you don’t have to lift a finger or something that includes a schedule full of land and water sports, sightseeing and more, you will want to take advantage of the facilities at The Crane. As a full-service luxury resort, The Crane offers a wide variety of services and amenities to its guests. Chances are the only thing you won’t want to do is leave!
**Before Arrival**
Before you ever set foot on the cobblestone streets or visit the lush gardens that surround The Crane, our staff will start preparing to make your stay as comfortable as possible.
In fact, The Crane has earned the AAA Four-Diamond Award, an honor that only a few other hotels on the island share. Properties that earn this seal of approval must meet or exceed member expectations in 27 different areas, including cleanliness, comfort, security and safety.
Whether you are staying in a standard suite with a garden view or a penthouse with an ocean view, you can be assured that the décor will be stylish, every square foot spotless and the service impeccable. We can even pre-stock the kitchen in your suite per your request.
**During Your Stay**
We offer a variety of on-site amenities to enhance the quality of your vacation at The Crane. These include but are not limited to:
- Gourmet restaurants offering many different types of cuisine
- 6 outdoor swimming pools, including one atop a cliff overlooking the ocean and a cliff-side waterfall pool.
- 2 tennis courts with flood lights to accommodate games after dark.
- Fitness center with state-of-the-art equipment, personal trainers and yoga classes.
- Room and beach service.
- Day spa offering holistic services including massages, facials, manicures, pedicures and other body treatments.
- Expansive retail village including a 3,000 square foot duty-free shop and a general store.
Additional concierge-type services are available for guests of The Crane and can be personalized according to your needs. These may include:

**After Your Stay**
After vacationing at The Crane, we are confident that you will want to come back time and time again. If you decide that you would like to own a piece of Barbados, we can help you with that too. We offer fractional ownership opportunities that allow you to enjoy all that The Crane has to offer while at the same time gaining equity and generating income. Each year, nearly 50 percent of our sales are to current owners who want to extend their stay or purchase a larger residence—a testament to the value of our services.
