The best places In Barbados to get engaged

This majestic garden boasts 53 acres of flowers and fauna to explore sure to whisk your partner off to a sensory paradise. Whilst you’re exploring the vibrant scenery, you can get down on one knee to pop the question in one of the many peaceful pathways. Or you can stroll down to the majestic coastline, wherever you choose; it’s one of the most magical and fragrant spots in Barbados to do it. 

One of the most scenic ways to propose is on the soft white sands of the Barbados beaches. And your hotel is surrounded by the most breathtaking beaches imaginable, so finding a spot should be easy.

The hotel staff will be more than accommodating to make your dream proposal come true, whether it’s a picnic on the sands, a romantic dinner by candlelight, or a water sports adventure. 

Your resort beach is five-star luxury, so no matter which Winged Boots hotel you pick, you’re sure of a stunning backdrop for your big question. 

If in doubt, you could always travel further afield to the most stunning beaches that Barbados has to offer. The two stand-out beaches are:

Carlisle Bay
This majestic beach is surrounded by stunning palm trees, which is perfect for finding a beautiful secluded area. Before you get down on one knee, spend the day exploring the six shipwrecks during a snorkelling session, where you’ll also see the mesmerising marine life, rock lobsters, fish and turtles. For something unique and romantic, you could even book a horseback riding session on the beach. 

Miami Beach
If you want a more adventurous experience beforehand, Miami Beach is full of exciting activities. For example, the south side has big waves for surfing and water sports, perfect for couples that love to get their adrenaline pumping. However, if you’re looking for a calmer side of this idyllic bay, the cove on the north side is perfect for peaceful swimming and finding a little piece of paradise for asking the big question.

It’s a classic for a reason. Nothing is more romantic than decadent dining incorporated into a proposal.

The best part is that you can enlist the help of the restaurant staff to make the dream proposal happen. So whether you want to serve the ring with the dessert, drop it in their champagne bubbles or perhaps just the classic pull from the jacket, you’ll have plenty of cheers from neighbouring diners. 

For something a little more intimate, you can work with restaurant staff to create a private dining experience either in your room or by candlelight on the beach. 

For the most magical proposal, Harrison’s Cave is a treasure trove of streams, waterfalls, and incredible stalactite and stalagmite formations. A tram tour takes you through these magical caves, but you can ask staff for a more secluded spot to bend the knee. Or perhaps take your love to the nearby nature walks and propose amongst the tropical flora and fauna. 

Barbados is home of luxury, so why not go big for your big proposal? The accommodation at Sandy Lane is perfect for the most romantic of stays.

One of the most luxurious Barbados engagement options is to book The Villa at Sandy Lane. This high-end luxury villa comprises five bedrooms with your own personal staff, including a butler and chef.

The Dolphin Suite will also score you some serious brownie points, as it comes with views over the Caribbean Sea, where you and your love can look for dolphins from your balcony. 

Create a moment they’ll remember forever and take to the Caribbean Sea on a luxury catamaran cruise, where you can admire views of the ocean, the marine life, and each other.

Snorkel to see the tropical fish and turtles before enjoying delicious Bajan cuisine on-board. Then at the right moment, as the sun sets, ask them the question...

For a more unique proposal, do it from the ocean's depths. This submarine experience goes deep under the Caribbean Sea so you can explore the tropical marine life up close and personal. Whilst you are swept up in the magic of the coral reefs, it may be the best time to ask them.

With fire walkers, people on stilts, and limbo getting the crowd pumped up, your big gesture is sure to go down a treat with your partner and the crowd alike.
