It was a fleeting visit but Rihanna made the most of her trip home last week.
The
What's My Name hit maker indulged in some sun and relaxation with
family and friends in her home country of Barbados over the weekend and
shared some candid snaps with her fans.
The 26-year-old looked blissfully happy as she donned a brightly coloured kaftan for some poolside frolics.
Down time: Rihanna spent some quality
time with family and friends in Barbados last week sharing numerous fun
snapshots from her holiday
There
to capture the moment was Rihanna's photographer friend Dennis Leupold
who she credited in some images she shared to her Instagram.
The Rehab singer wore her hair in long loose curls and sported a Dimepiece red and green patterned cover-up.
The
star could be seen enjoying cuddles with her baby cousin Majesty,
captioning in one: 'i$land girlz' as well as a touching black and white
snap where she said: 'she took me. she got me. completely.
unconditionally.'

Smiles: The artist looked like she was entertaining her cousins with some dance moves
The
tiny girl is the daughter of Rihanna's cousin, Noella Alstrom, but the
singer has dubbed herself 'Aunty OhNaNa' and regularly gushes over the
tot on her Twitter account.
In
other shots she was seen laughing with girlfriends at a poolside bar as
they aimed their smartphones at another bikini-clad pal who appeared to
be twerking.

On
Friday Rihanna made a very important visit to the Queen Elizabeth
Hospital in Bridgetown to check-up on progress the staff had made since
she donated $1.75 million back in 2012.
The
star's generous gift was in memory of her late grandmother, 'Gran Gran
Dolly,' who died of cancer and led to the hospital's radiotherapy
department being renamed the Clara Brathwaite Centre for Oncology and
Nuclear Medicine.
Antics: In one amusing snap, Rihanna larked around with her pals captioning: 'friend$hip. in. 2014.'
Back to her roots: Rihanna had some candid shots taken by photographer Dennis Leupold which she posted to her Instagram
Friendship: There's no doubt the superstar got some quality down time with her gal pals
According to a post in the Grammy winner visited the hospital with her mother, Monica Fenty.
Rihanna's
funds enabled the hospital to purchase a modern radiotherapy machine
and she stopped to chat with a patient who had been using it.
The
singer is looking forward to the release of her new record, which is
rumoured to be called Lost Files, but won't announce the date, though
she has hinted it will be previewed one track at a time.
She
said: 'I can't give you any hints of when it will drop. It's going to
be great, that's all I'm going to tell you and I'm excited about it.'
In love: The R&B diva captioned this touching shot 'she took me. she got me. completely. unconditionally.'
Calm: Riri looked lost in a moment with her tiny cousin
