Barbados Holiday Reviews

Barbados is really brilliant. Weather was superb throughout, and the beach is like something out of a dream. Food was also really nice. This was our first time going long haul, we are definatley considering trying out another island after this.

stay away from the traditional tourist traps like the gap. too expensive, just chill out with the locals at top little places a little off the beaten track. speak to foreigners who stay for months at a time, they know the real island. never go self catering, what a waste!

Christchurch was a brilliant resort. The beach is lovely, the sand is pure white and the sea is a lovely turquoise. There are some really good bars there, lovely cocktails! Some of the local seafood dishes must be tried also!

We have being going to Barbados for approximately 20 years usually with Virgin, we always stop in The Gap as it is quiet during the day and the nightlife is the best on the Island. We enjoyed going with First choice - only draw back was having to fly from Birmingham Airport instead of Manchester.

Very good resort with a lovely beach. There are some lovely cocktails available in the bars, great tropical fruit. Lovely and sunny for our whole fortnight, arrived back refreshed and ready for Christmas.

The resort was great lots of life on the Gap....at night and fab beaches that are well looked after. Would definately make a return visit to bothe the Hotel and the resort the sooner the better as far I am concerned.

First time in the Caribbean and really enjoyed our stay. Really didn't do much, just laid on the beach or by the pool, but came home so relaxed and refreshed. Enjoyed every minute of it.

Lovely resort, it felt really safe!!!!! The beach is gorgeous, and they serve up great cocktails and fresh fruit cocktails, bright colours! Really loved it.

The resort is well located just that bit away from the main St Lawrence Gap bars and restaurants so you will not be disturbed at night. There is plenty to do on the beaches in the area - including you can swim, spot turtles, go out in various boats or just read books. There are a good number of shops and restaurants too. You may want to hire a car to explore the island - we did this and it is great fun!

Didn't really venture outside by the hotel surrounds are lovely. People and locals are really friendly and Taxi service was great too

Beautiful resort, the beach is absolute picture postcard bliss. We ove the local food too, and you must try some fabuilous cocktails. The local people are so nice too and welcoming to their island.

I played the Country Course and toured the new Green Monkey course in the afternoon. It is a quite amazing achievement! over 100 people a day have been working to manicure it and it has now reached maturity in terms of being ready to play. It is the most perfect pasture. Boulders and cliffs have been carefully unearthed - No stone has been left unturned, no turf has been so much loved. It represents one of the finest courses in the world certainly in the top 10. If you think you are a good golfer think again - even the best (Tiger) will have a challenge from the backtees which have been strategically placed to make this one of the most challenging golf expieriences you will ever face .

lovely resort,plenty to do, bars shops and beaches..... bus service fab and very cheap, no hassle from the locals, oistins a good night out as well

Some great restaurants and bars. Taxis are plentiful. No beach to write home about in the middle of the resort but lovely ones just outwith

Loverly place to stay, deffinately reccomend going on the cruises to swim with turtles though we saw turtles on our own beach anyway. great place!
