If there’s anyone who can single-handedly launch the start of summer vacation season by gracing a magazine cover, it’s Rihanna. Earlier today, Vogue unveiled its June 2018 cover featuring the Barbadian pop empress in full Caribbean splendor—bathing suit, Fenty bronzer, ocean view and all.
While the glossy cover has surely caused a spike in Google searches for Barbados resort hotels, we already have one on our summer to-do list: Port Ferdinand in the village of St. Peter—a white-and-blue fantasy that would make an idyllic backdrop to any magazine spread—or at least your Instagram grid. Here, we catch up with general manager Bernard Sarme on the marina-front resort’s most requested room.
What’s the most requested room?
The most requested room at Port Ferdinand is our 3,700 square foot Ocean View Villa #103, which has three bedrooms and three bathrooms.
