Bay Gardens Inn

Bay Gardens Inn is a small, friendly, good-value hotel set around a garden courtyard and pool in Rodney Bay Village, the busiest corner of the north. Restaurants, bars and shops are all close by, and Reduit Beach, one of the island's best, is about five minutes away by car.

Its 32 rooms come in Standard, Superior and Deluxe categories, each with a private bathroom and a balcony or terrace; double rooms have two beds, and some larger rooms sleep four. The Inn shares its dining with its sister hotels: meals are served at Spices Restaurant at the Bay Gardens Hotel next door, and food and drinks are brought to the pool during the day.

As a guest you can also use the Bay Gardens Beach Club at the Bay Gardens Beach Resort on Reduit Beach, with sun loungers, non-motorised water sports and Wi-Fi, plus Splash Island, the inflatable water park in the bay, which is a hit with families. A free shuttle runs between the Inn and the beach resort through the day.
