Bar Kanei... The Mood is Relaxed and Everyone is a VIP


The cool, laid-back, spaciously–freeing and bright ambience at Bar Kanei creates a mood of excitement and at the same time calm.

Set amidst this tropical landscape, on the extremely busy south coast of Barbados, faced by easy access from all dimensions and laying on a spectacular beach, yet tucked away from busy traffic.

Await views of a deep blue sea, white sand dotted with trendy beach goers… coconut trees sway and provide shade moreover your beach umbrella, while you lounge on your beach chair … enjoy front row seats to engaging evening sunsets.

On walking into Bar Kan'ei, it was like discovering paradise within paradise.

The entrance, enticing with elegance leads into a relaxing beach scene, a large wide open-air terrace with plenty of casual seating, a soothing and beautifying ambience embraces a fully stocked bar dazzled by energetic and efficient service, which looks out to water sports, other activities on Rockley beach and an alluring blue lagoon, located just in front of the beach bar’s terrace.

The lagoon is shaped by an alignment of mid-size rocks which also lend increase safety for toddlers or young children to frolic and surf in the shallow waters nearby.

The complete beach experience is what Bar Kan'ei offers, combining a menu set with choices from casual bar snacks, a burger (with a vegetarian option) and fries through to mouth-watering entrees and comforting desserts.

Overall, it is a wonderfully upbeat, inviting, yet relaxing bar, enhanced with stimulating beats in the background.

There is definitely something satisfyingly unusual about the vibe at Bar Kanei.

Talking with Irena, the owner of the establishment, it all came to light.

Originally from the south-eastern European country of Bulgaria, Irena explained that there are bars quite similar to Bar Kanei in Bulgaria.

While also living in England and working with the government there, Irena decided to visit Barbados for a holiday.

“After one hour on Barbados I knew I was going to live here.”

On that note, this lady went back to England and told her colleagues the news of her moving to the island.

While walking the beach with her sister and talking about what business they could possibly start in Barbados,the pair saw this bar, the building had been available for over a year.

Irena’s sister took care of setting up and organising the place for its opening, the theme is 21st centruary European- very spacious and very minimalist, with modern European music playing in the background, a very different experience for Barbados.

Bar Kanei Bar Area The name Bar Kan'ei is interesting as its stem is influenced by Japanese history.

Kan'ei was a Japanese era after Genna and before Shôhô and spanned from 1624 to 1643.

Whether it is for a family outing to the beach, brunch with your better half or drinks with your best guys or gals, don't forget to stop by this beach bar.

Many thanks to Irena and her sister for bringing the flavour of Europe to Barbados for all to enjoy and for letting us feature it here on life-n-styles-barbados.
