    I thought that the airport pickup and drop off was a bit overpriced at 25USD paid to the driver, it is only a 10 minute drive from the airport to the accommodation.

    Great little place with only 5 rooms and a small private swimming pool. More like staying in someone's luxury home (you need to take your shoes off at the door to go in). I chose a bedroom on the ground floor with direct access and view of the swimming pool, which was lovely to have. The pool area is awesome with even has sunshades strung above it so you can always find some shade even when you are in the pool. At the end of the pool there is a comfy shaded seating area with sofas and also a large fully stocked bar, with beers, spirits, wines and mixers. The bar largely operated on an honesty system, and you were free to pour yourself a drink or take a beer from the fridge at any time. They also made up fresh rum punch on a couple of days. Breakfast was made to order and was very good.

    Not clear if we could use the kitchen (we couldn't). A bit out of the way so need a taxi / bus to go to Oistins or Bridgetown (though bus stops are only a few mins walk and are frequent).

    Quite chic. Very lovely pool. Nice outside space upstairs and downstairs. Friendly owner.

    The only improvement needed was the loose toilet seat, which will be fixed. For my personal opinion, it would be perfect if the different pillows (there are several on the bed) would be different in firm/softness (like one firm, one a bit softer).

    Very very friendly welcoming and throughout my stay, there was a continuously wonderful atmosphere at the hidden gem. I got all the information I asked for and even a perfect recommendation on my first day, being exhausted but willing to explore the area a bit. The rooms and house overall was perfectly decorated with lots of small details, that differs completely from the usual hotel complexes, where most rooms look the same. The patio with pool and bar is very comfortable and let‘s you relax or plan your day. Strong, fast wifi all over the property, very clean.

    It’s quite tricky to find ……. Hidden Gem is an accurate description. The roads around there are truly terrible , so if you are driving be careful to avoid the craters !

    Lovely breakfast , although a little expensive at US $25 pp Pool and seating area, with self-serve bar, is a great set up. The local pub / bar is very friendly. Drinks are cheap and the food is good. Worth a visit

    Hidden Gem is by the sea - you can see it and hear it from the upper verandah but not on an accessible beach. It is a bit of a walk to get to one. It does have a lovely pool though with lots of shade. You will need a car or a helpful taxi driver as we did.

    Hidden Gem was a lovely place - beautifully maintained and great attention to detail. Ameena could not have been more helpful and prepares a great breakfast. She sorted out all sorts of things for us and made us very welcome.

    As other reviews have said, it’s a bit isolated so you have to use the buses (which are good and easy to catch nearby) or have a car if you want to get around and for most dining options.

    An absolutely beautiful property - gorgeous decoration. Great pool. Very friendly and helpful owners/staff.

    Breakfast was huge and delicious but a wee bit pricey, as was the quote for a massage.

    My room was large, with a comfortable bed & day bed, en-suite was a good size, clean with a good shower. Plenty of storage in the room, coffee making facilities, anti mozzi screens in the windows, a lovely ceiling fan and an AC too. A fridge in the room was a nice touch. The Parisian Room I stayed in was quirky. Gorgeous swimming pool and patio bar, the location was so near to the ocean I could see it from my room. Everyone one was friendly, kind and helpful.

    - That I wasn't able to stay longer!

    - You get to choose/tailor your breakfast the way you like throughout your stay. - The manager and hostess really went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and to accommodate me in a number of ways! - They arrange a taxi to pick you up from the airport, just ask! - Their beds are so soft! it will feel like you're sleeping on a cloud
