arranged in a horseshoe shape around eight acres
of lush tropical gardens facing out towards the sea.
Each suite is beautifully decorated, boasting its own
balcony or patio with exquisite views of the opulent
surroundings. The resort’s five luxury villas sit on the
hilltop overlooking the hotel. The villas have two, three,
or five bedrooms. The five-bedroom Hummingbird Villa
has been named “One of World’s Best Hotel Villas” by
Condé Nast Traveler.
Garbutt says that the Calabash is known for the atten-
tion it pays to detail and personal service. “There are
certain things that we do that aren’t necessarily easier
for us, but is nicer for the guests,” she says. “For ex-
ample, we don’t serve breakfast in a restaurant; we
don’t have buffets where you go and line up to get your
food, like a lot of hotels do. We serve it in-suite, or we
sit on the beach and it’s all cooked to order.”
The Calabash is a multi-award winning hotel. In 2015,
