Avis Stunning Barbados Town House near Oistins Fish Fry

It was a nice property but cannot be described as stunning. The property is a little tired, such as the kitchen units and chair covers. The property hadn’t been cleaned properly when I arrived but communication with the property owner was good and we came to an amicable solution. Unfortunately the phone wasn’t working which was slightly inconvenient but the neighbours were friendly and helpful. Overall it was okay for a couple of nights and close to amenities. With a bit of attention to detail and upgrading of a few things it would be a lovely place to stay.

This was a great 2 bed property for our holiday. We have stayed around this area before so familiar with location. Property was gated, amongst 5 others so felt safe with no non residents passing/driving by. Nice and quiet at all times but we were lucky as nobody in house next to us! However, do agree with another review that the main bed mattress is very hard. But I guess that is personal choice. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again … thank you 😊

Stayed here in Feb and found it to be perfect for our needs. Property is in a quiet little development up a small road, and is behind gates. Felt perfectly safe and secure. Walking to and from restaurants at night was little tricky as a porition of the main road is unlit, but thats not a fault of the property, just that the location is a little more quiet. Which is not a bad thing. Bedrooms are good sized, Main one is huge with loads of wardrobes. Main bed a little hard for us but others may be fine with it. Bathrooms maybe a little tired, but A/c worked well in bedrooms. No A/c downstairs but we didnt sit there much, mainly out on the small back terrace. All the usual kitchen facilities and a good washing machine. Walk to Miami / enterprise beach is about a 10 min stroll, really easy, and frankly the beach is beautiful. No big hotels or high rise, with no endless lines of sunloungers. There is a lovely shaded tree covered area behind the beach, and a good food truck in the shaded area. Loungers / umbrellas for rent at the beach. Caspers outdoor restaurant across the small road is a great spot for an evening drink or food. The beach at the bottom of the road (Freights bay) is lovely, but the incoming tide means you couldnt sit on most of it at high tide. Great communication with the host prior to the holiday and a whatsapp group for use during it. Our local contact Angela was really helpful, sorted out some essentials for arrival, and organised a rental car which we found very useful for shopping in Masseys in Oistins and trips further afield when we had some rainy days. She also sorted out our taxi transfers to/from airport - couldnt have been more helpful. The green monkeys wandered past a few times, right by the back patio, and you must keep the doors closed, as all the little birds fly in looking for food. Very much recommended property.

The property is great for a beach holiday. The rooms are spacious and well furnished. New flooring downstairs looks fab. The bedrooms both have air con, plenty of wardrobe space and the beds are very comfortable. Good quality bed linen and towels provided. Kitchen is fully equiped for a self catering holiday with large fridge, cooker and washing machine. If anything the kitchen has too much stuff, but there were only two of us so plenty of crockery etc for bigger groups. Outside space is great for breakfast and has a lovely breeze through in the evening. Property is in a nice area and is quiet, very secure, keysafe means you dont have to worry about losing the keys. The neighbours were friendly and shared lots of local knowledge. Its about 10 mins walk to the stunning Enterprise beach and a bit further into Oistins. Downside was off the main route for buses and grocery shopping. We got taxis back from Oistins after dark and to bring back shopping at B$20 and Angela kindly got some basics in for us as we arrived on a Sunday. Excellent communication from host before and during our holiday. This was my 6th visit to Barbados and this is one of the best properties I have stayed at.

Don’t get me wrong, we had a fantastic time. The location is awesome but the property is tired and lacks true comfort. Rock hard beds, crockery cutlery and glasses all needed washing before use as locked up for long time. On stove kettle broke first time used so had to buy an electric one (which was reimbursed). Floor tiles in dining area blew 1st week in making the area unusable. Kitchen cupboards don’t close without effort. However, air con units were great and there was loads of fresh linen and towels. Wash machine is awesome but the pegs were lacking so had to buy some. Such a shame as this could be an amazing place!

The house is very nice but we were glad we had a car although you don’t need one for the beach but is better for groceries and going out I would suggest updating the faucets in main bathroom and kitchen All in all I would recommend

Excellent property as regards to location. Angela was always on hand if required. Thanx to u all

Regular traveller to Barbados stayed at various properties. Was in Barbados 5 weeks this visit, spent last 5 days here. If you are going to have visitors from Bajan family or friends do not recommend you stay here, they English owners at number 5 right next door complained about me leaving small communal gate open, when I explained it was left open as we were going right back out, he waved a lock at me and said if I did not close gate he would put the lock on the gate and we would not be able to get out as they were the owners. He came prepared with the lock, it was not a polite reminder Gate was left open twice during mid morning for a short period as we were picked up by family, of adults and children, behaviour made our family uncomfortable and unwelcome. We could be wrong but suspected the reason is they do not want locals there. Spoiled our stay, would not stay here again Apart from that home is clean, beds comfortable, 15 minute walk from Miami Beach
