Excellent location on Paynes Bay Beach
It is very nice to be able to walk out the door and be only a few steps to the beach or watch the sunset from the balcony. The apartment is basic in its furnishings, but comfortable. William was helpful in looking after a couple of things and we enjoyed talking with him. The beach restaurant was convenient to have on site, providing various items for our use. Overall, it is not as fancy as other accommodations might be, but is reasonably priced.

Wonderful vacation
We enjoyed our vacation in Barbados. The location is excellent(on the beach), and the hosts, Madaline and William, are great people—ready to help at any given moment. Every morning, we had 2 chairs on the beach awaiting us. There is a small playground for kids—we use it all the time for our granddaughter, 2 years old. The grocery store is near there, and there are lots of restaurants around. Gazebo offers food and drinks if you prefer to avoid cooking. We had a great time there.

Location, location, location
The two bedrooms gave ample space for our family of four and as described by others Madeleine, William and Alison were very helpful & friendly. The air conditioner in the bedrooms worked well. Addressing other reviews, the place could maybe do with a lick of paint and one of the bathrooms had a strong sulphur smell but the location right in the middle of Paynes Bay is excellent. The beach chairs set up on the beach for us every day, just yards from the back door made everything so easy.

The apartment was clean, well maintained and in a fabulous location. Steps from the beach, close to restaurants and the owners were very helpful with all our questions. We would recommend this property.

Perfect apartment in prime location
This apartment is run by a lovely local family. They’re very helpful and friendly. The location is superb, right on Paynes Bay, a few metres away from the sea :) the kitchen has all you need, the bedrooms have air-conditioning. I’d say pretty perfect! We will definitely come back.

When you stay in this apartment you are truly in Barbados next to the beach. You intermingle with the natives who are very kind and helpful especially William the owner who took care of our needs. Nice man. Great place. We would return.
