Where I Stayed 🏡 🏨 🏕️ 🏖️ 🏠 🌆 🛏️

The Admiral's Inn

@zelinesantana

A great place to stay with a toddler! The boat rides are smooth and safe, and the staff is very toddler-friendly. The hotel is within walking distance of a supermarket where you can easily find toddler essentials.

Nelson's Dockyard Marina

@zelinesantana

We walked through Nelson’s Dockyard a few times while staying in English Harbour. On Friday nights, they host a fish fry, something you’ll find on many islands. Crab cakes, coconut shrimp, and conch fritters. The vibe was lively, with a DJ playing music and a mix of local music. Great place for children to play.

Kon Tiki Bar and Grill

@zelinesantana

Toddler-Friendly for Ages 5 & Up! If you're visiting with multiple adults, you can take turns enjoying the experience while the little ones play on the beachfront. The quick boat ride from shore to the Tiki is smooth and easy, making it an accessible adventure for families. Just be mindful that younger toddlers may need extra supervision, but for kids 5 and up, it’s a fun and memorable outing! Life vest for children is strong recommended.

Ana's On The Beach

@zelinesantana

Great Beachfront Restaurant. We lounged by the beach while the servers regularly checked in to take orders—such a great way to relax and enjoy a meal without having to leave the sand. Perfect spot for good food, great views, and a laid-back vibe!
