Barbados! Cheap Spices and Beautiful Beaches

by remnjava Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Feb 22 '02
Pros: PLENTY of taxis available. CHEAP spices! BEAUTIFUL beaches!
Cons: A little too developed.
"HEY! Do you want a tour?" "Here! Let me take you on a tour!" No, thanks, we just want a ride into town which can be had for $1-2. Cab drivers were almost tripping over themselves to get your attention to take you on a tour.

Barbados, Grenada & Carriacou

by splodge , Apr 10 '04
Pros: The weather, the beaches & sea, the food and everything about Carriacou.
Cons: The cost of food and accommodation, although better value on Carriacou.
My boyfriend and I traveled to the Caribbean on 9th March 2004 for three weeks. The plan was to try and “backpack” to save cost and ensure we found accommodation we were happy with in a place we wanted to be, rather than what you’d get with ...

Beaches and Business in the Eastern Caribbean

by kbvespa , Feb 18 '09
Pros: Good mix of sand, surf, tourist attractions, and action.
Cons: More crowded than other resort islands; bad traffic and confusing roads.
I have a business connection to Barbados, and have been there 2 to 4 times a year over the last ten years.  So, I thought I'd write a travel review from my perspective as a frequent visitor, but not really a tourist.The ...

Sea breeze hotel, Oistens, Barbados

by castaway2006 , Jun 28 '06
Pros: Lovely sea and sand. Good food
Cons: Disappointing overall. Don't expect 4* unless the new changes have radically altered it.
We stayed here for 1 week in Jan 2004. It was 4* Allocation on arrival holiday with Airtours (as was before they disappeared). The chances were we could be allocated Almond beach, which looked great and we hoped we wouldn't get stuck with the 'Sea ...

Our Home away from home

by barbados , Jul 05 '04
Pros: Lots to do! Friendly people. A lovely, diverse island.
Cons: Expensive. Bridgetown proper seems dirty to some.
For the last 13 years we’ve spent the North American winters in Barbados. Flying in to Grantley Adams airport one is treated with a view of paradise that awaits. Barbados has a population of almost 280,000 people. About 80% of Barbados’ ...

Barbados Hilton Offers Family Value and Safety

by DGodesky , Feb 24 '08
Pros: Reasonable prices, clean, well maintained and great water sports for free.
Cons: Off-site, walking to attractions is a hike.
The Hilton Barbados is the place to stay if you are looking for reliable accommodations and reasonable prices. Most important, if you are a Hilton Honors Gold Member, or can become one by staying enough times at Hilton before your trip, make sure upon ...

Oh, Baaaaby- Barbados!

by SLOW , Dec 07 '99
Pros: Atmosphere, weather, price, food, activities
Cons: Those damn long-distance surcharges on hotel phones
There's something about going to a foreign country where the indigenous people speak English and still like Americans. Maybe it's the novelty. Maybe it's the overwhelmingly isolationist view we have of the world ("EVERYBODY speaks English- or ...

Go for the beaches

by Tokada , May 30 '00
Pros: Great beaches, nice people, low crime
Cons: Expensive, rather crowded
Barbados has terrific beaches and friendly people, but it isn't a place where you can easily get away from it all. I stayed at the Sandy Beach Hotel in St. Lawrence Gap on the south coast of the island, and found that we were right on the busy main...

Bajan Sunset

by bought_it_all , Apr 10 '01
Pros: Beautiful, peaceful vacation spot
Cons: Can get a little expensive
I went to Barbados last December, and it was the most relaxing vacation I've ever taken. It stays around 80-85 degrees in December, which is a welcome change from the 40 degrees in New York upon departure.

The cab ride from the airport to...

Beaches, Bargains and British

by friskycelery , Feb 28 '00
Pros: Great weather, reasonable prices, English speaking
Cons: give me a minute, maybe I'll think of one
My goal is to visit all the islands in the tropical part of the world at least once. I've been to Barbados a couple of times, always in the December - January time frame, so my comments on prices and weather may not apply at other times of the year.

Almond Beach Village

by jsmom , Nov 24 '00
Pros: Great for relaxing, even with kids
Cons: The food stunk, the bulldozers were noisy
I just returned from a 10-day stay in Barbados. The people there are wonderful, and they should be. Their Number one form of income is from tourism. The West Coast of the island that faces the Caribbean and is where all of the resorts are located is...
