"Pros: Amazing Host! …Rodney was an exceptional host, I can honestly say he made our holiday extra special, communications was excellent before and during our stay. He recommended many places to dine and explore. Rodney is a very kind, courteous host, he greeted us on our early arrival and was there to make sure we had enjoyed our holiday on our departure. He couldn’t do enough for us, above and beyond our expectations. The Penthouse apartment has the most wonderful view of the sea and we saw some beautiful sunsets from the fabulous furnished balcony! It is beautifully decorated with quality appliances, designer decor, fixtures and fittings and was very clean throughout. The penthouse had everything we could wish for to make our stay very enjoyable. We didn’t want to leave. This felt very much home from home and we are already planning our return. Cons: Nothing!" ~Deborah

"Pros: The Beach View Hotel is a fantastic base for exploring Barbados. The apartments are spacious, giving you plenty of room to relax, they’re very well equipped for self catering. It doesn’t feel like a ‘hotel’. You have the choice of dining at the Sugar Apple Café and a little bar had just opened when we were there, complete with a pool table and darts board, which was a nice touch. The staff were super helpful and friendly, always happy to assist. Paynes Bay, just across the road, is a beautiful beach and great for collecting sea glass. You can hire sun loungers and a parasol for $40 BBD or borrow smaller chairs and a parasol from the hotel behind the little shop, which is handy for picking up basic supplies. We also had a grocery pack delivered for our arrival, which made things so much easier after a long journey. There’s plenty of car parking on site, which is ideal if you’re hiring a car to explore the island. The only downside is the very noisy road at the front of the hotel and there’s no real escape from it unless you stay in the duplexes at the back of the site. However, overall, it’s a great place to stay with everything you need for a relaxed and enjoyable trip." ~Janet
