Wonderful holiday from the minute I arrived until I left. Amazing hotel, food, location, spa treatments and spacious gorgeous clean rooms. I enjoyed the quiet vibe and the sounds of ocean waves all day long. Spectacular ocean views and beach. Most of all the staff is the kindest and and they go above and beyond to make you feel truly valued and pampered. I am so grateful to every single person and I can't wait to return. Thank you.

The breakfast was good. Varied in the selection of food.
The staff were friendly and they to remember what we liked.
The tables were plenty and they tried to seat us by the beach. They also altered the menu somewhat to accommodate people’s preferences.

We stayed at Gully Point in Hometown, Saint James, Barbados, which was an excellent Villa 15 mins walk to the beach/town.
The beaches are excellent, some with less or slightly more rocks depending on where you are, but able to enjoy the water and beach at many locations fairly easily.
If you're not wanting to spend too much $$ for a fancy beachside restaurant, you can often rent a pair of chairs and umbrella for ~ $20 USD for the day and bring your own drinks/food.
The city of Holetown has everything you need from grocery store, Starbucks, restaurants, beachside bars and restaurants.
There are locals who will offer seadoo or various other water sport experiences, but be sure to bargain otherwise it can get very expensive.
Very good overall beach area to visit, safe, but it is a bit on the pricier side in comparison to other islands.

There are 2 or 3 main areas for "stuff" in Barbados... there's the area around Worthing Beach / Carlisle Beach / Christchurch - just south of Bridgetown known as St Lawrence Gap / Oistins.
There's Speightstown
...and there's St James - known as the platinum coast. St James has good beaches and some of the best restaurants and bars on the Island. Great supermarkets for the self-catering traveller and amazing hotels for those who want cosseting.

I only spent a day in St James but I found it to be more peaceful than the Southern coast. The beache I visited was just as lovely as the nicest beach I visited in Worthing. there were fewer shopping opportunities as the area is mostly residential with more impressive hotels

Great location with plenty of nice bars, restaurants, beach access and shops. Busy highway running through but accommodation is plentiful and it isn’t hard to find a quiet spot.
The Tides, Seashed and Fusion are all great options. Buses and taxis readily available everywhere.

St James is an excellent area for a Beach holiday.
St James is an excellent area for a Beach holiday.
But I’m biased I was born in St James. I always return there.
There are very nice pubs and restaurants, you get to see the sun go down. It easy to get to other part of the island. Great public transport links.
Holetown has the Limegrove shopping precinct and a vibrant night life. Massey’s supermarket and Cave Shepherd shopping experience, if you run out of funds there are several cash machines and Banks available.

Saint James is a quiet town but tourists can still access...
Saint James is a quiet town but tourists can still access busy areas such as the Saint Lawrence gap easily from this parish. Lots of nearby pubs for live entertainment and lots of food options to choose from. However food in this region is rather expensive compared to the city Bridgetown.
We had a lovely time at Alamanda apartment.
The apartment is very nice, spacious and comfy - everything just like in the pictures.
Denise is really kind superhost. The cake she baked for us was delicious!
The location is good - you can easily walk to a lovely and quiet Paradise beach, supermarket, or a bus stop.
However, we would recommend to rent a car to explore this area more easily.
We fully recommend to stay at Denise’s and thank her again to have such a pleasant stay in St.James - Barbados.
We loved the owner, Ms. Ann Marie. She was so kind to us. She made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. She was polite and professional. She made us feel right at home. I would definitely be staying here whenever I visit beautiful Barbados and I will recommend this villa 100%
The place was clean and tidy. It was equipped with everything that we needed... sheets, towels, pots, pans, cuttlery, iron, fan, bedrooms are A/C, TV including Netflix, washer and also toiletries 😀
Location was excellent. Having use of other hotels in the group and the free water taxi is a massive bonus. Water sports included too was also a bonus. Hotel was clean although starting to look tired in places. Having a coffee and wine bar servicing nice coffee was also great. Children's club very welcoming and had lots for the kids to do
We loved the location and the quaint size of the hotel, so you didn’t feel like you were staying in a huge resort or anything. Also, after meeting other tourists around the island we quickly realized that west coast is the best coast for calm serene waters :) so glad we booked here !
I like the hotel, the grounds. The friendly staff. The fact that there was always something to do. I came to celebrate my 70th birthday, not only did the staff make it an exceptional birthday, but the hotel guests made it even more enjoyable.
Great rooms and location. However the main pool was not functioning and we are not made aware of that at any point before getting to the hotel. So sitting on the main terrace and on the loungers was unpleasantly noisy and dusty.
hotel right on beach location was fantastic, great views from a beach view room, not so good if overlooking the road but you pay for the view. Staff were all amazing and always helpful and cheerful. All meals were very nice
Loved the bedroom but unfortunately the rest of the hotel was abit tired . Not many guests so you would have thought they would have made sure that the rest of the hotel was looking amazing as they had the time
Really friendly hotel with great staff and good facilities.
Our room (the 2 bedroom) was well designed and perfect for a family. We had good kitchen facilities, a great washer / dryer, and very comfy beds.
