Guest reviews La Paloma

We had a fabulous time at La Paloma, probably the best vacation ever. The location was superb, the ladies were a delight, the cooking great and I didn’t have to do too much chauffeuring around. We were right on the beach and could walk to the supermarket and a couple local bars/restaurants. Needless to say that it was a great pleasure seeing you again too.

Carolyn took such great care of our family. This is our fourth time booking with Carolyn and Sixth time to Barbados. Our accommodations couldn’t have been better and she made us feel like we were VIP’s. She is professional and readily accessible. Booking with BarbadosBarbados is a must for your Barbados vacation!!! They know the island, know the best accommodations and activities, and will take care of you!!

Client Review – BarbadosBarbados

This was our first time to Barbados and were hesitant to book a villa using one of the larger web sites (VRBO, etc.). It seemed like there were a number of villas with multiple listings, and some listings just didn’t seem accurate. We contacted Carolyn to help us find a villa because we wanted a local representative who would look out for our interests. She was a huge help and found a villa represented by another company that was absolutely perfect for us. She’s a Barbados native and seems to know every other person on the island. She was a huge help lining up dinner reservations, sailing and fishing trips, and other tours. In addition to representing us in the Villa rental, it felt like she was our concierge for the trip and definitely made our visit more enjoyable. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to travel to Barbados.

Carolyn saved our holiday!

Carolyn is brilliant! She saved our holiday after we arrived on the island and realised that the Airbnb we had booked was (to put it mildly) less than ideal. After a small moment of despair and then a little googling, we found the BarbadosBarbados website and called Carolyn. Within two hours she had us set up with a totally wonderful villa. She was so kind and helpful and the villa was absolutely perfect. She truly saved our holiday and we will be calling her again next time we visit!

Guest reviews Mullins Bay Townhouse 7

Everything was wonderful. Carolyn made us feel like Rihanna royalty! Her attention to detail and dedication made us feel right at home. It means a lot coming from our crazy NYC city. I look forward to visiting Barbados and will be in touch with Carolyn and her team!

My family of six stayed at Mullins Bay TH#7 for two weeks. We loved it. The grounds are one giant garden. Our yard was well maintained. My kids loved the pool in the backyard. We ate often in the backyard at the covered table. The house was immaculate. We were very comfortable for our entire stay. Lots of space. Marva (our housekeeper) was very friendly and so helpful. She did our dishes and laundry, in addition to keeping the house tidy. We were across the street from the beach and spent much time there. Two fine dining restaurants across the street. We walked to each and ate there often. We would highly recommend this property, and hope to be back again soon. Thank you to Carolyn and team for the rum punch and homemade brownies welcome – and making our stay so comfortable and enjoyable. And a big thank you to the green monkeys who visited us on our first morning at the property – what a way to start our visit to Barbados!

Review of Schooner Bay 112 Moonshine

We stayed at Schooner Bay #112 and had a wonderful time in Barbados close to Speightstown. The villa is separate from the main units which allows a bit of privacy. It is really nice with all the comforts expected on a vacation. Carolyn of BarbadosBarbados made the recommendation, and this is the 2nd time she has fulfilled our arrangements.The previous time was three years ago for a larger family get together at a different location. She secured this place about 7 months ahead of our Jan-Feb 2019 stay, she arranged the airport ride with a meal stop at Mama Mia’s and had a pre-arranged grocery list stocked at our location. There is plenty of security allowing access to guests entry from the main road gate and another secure gate at the sea. We took advantage of swims and snorkeling a short walk along the beach and later used the huge pool for more relaxing each day. For more enjoyment, we ate at some favorite restaurants in Holetown (The Tides, Mews & Spago) and found some equally nice places a walks distance at Juma’s, Orange Street Grocer, The Beach Shack, Stanleys Sports Bar, Fisherman’s Pub and One Eleven East for drinks. From prior trips, we toured the whole island and recommend this be done. Also travel on the buses which is cheaper and a better experience. We have high praise for Carolyn and Billy O’Dell of BarbadosBarbados. Certainly, they get our recommendation and do intend to ask for their help in the future. At anytime along the planning and during the actual vacation, they’re willing help to make your vacation the best. This villa also had maid service with Cheryl, a very nice and pleasant lady.

We had another wonderful vacation in Barbados thanks to Carolyn. From the point of inquiring about rentals, booking, arriving, and requests during the vacation, she takes care of everything. Carolyn and Billy ensure we feel like family. We’re already planning our next visit. Cheers!
