Facilities and things to do in the neighbourhood -:
Barbados is regarded as 'the jewel' of the Caribbean, and the west coast in St.James is affectionately known as 'the platinum coast' because of its clean, glittering beaches and spectacular sunsets. Unlike the turbulent east coast, our waters are calm, clear and warm. It is ideal for swimming, snorkeling, wind surfing, water skiing, scuba diving or just relaxing on the beach enjoying the sun, sand and sights. The Baku Beach Club in Sunset Crest on the sea shore is only five minutes from Golden View, and features a pool, bar, and restaurant. The West Side Tennis Club is adjacent and the 45 hole championship Sandy Lane Golf Club is next door. Also in the community are 2 shopping malls, with department stores, speciality shops, restaurants, a full service (President's Choice) grocery store and several banks. A 'chattel house village' of additional speciality shops caters to vacationers' every need. There are 25 restaurants, from fast food to fine dining, within walking distance.
