    A wonderfully clean and exceptionally well supplied holiday place. An air of generosity is everywhere inside it and also very evident in the owner. Very, very convenient for local very down to earth restaurants and a short stroll to the beach.

    Theres nothing not to like, its perfect

    Where to start? Ive stayed in so many different places on the island and nothing comes close to Sharon’s place. From the moment i arrived Sharon was there to greet me, the place is absolutely beautiful, so well done & extremely comfortable. Sharon goes above and beyond and nothing is too much trouble, she even did my washing for me whilst i was out on the beach. I would recommend Sharon’s place to anyone and everyone and im already looking forward to returning 😊

    Sharon was an incredible host and was very kind with me. I loved the complementary amenities, specially after a long trip! It made me feel very welcomed. She gave me great recommendations. The apartment is small but clean, very peaceful and have a small terrace to relax and have meals. The house is very well connected with the beach (just 3 mins walking), restaurants and bus to other parts of the city.

    Can I say because our trip was not long enough? Honestly, we didn't have any issues at all during our visit because Sharon was so responsive. Any questions we had were answered immediately.

    Sharon was an INCREDIBLE hostess! She picked us up from the airport and brought us back to the property, gave us a tour, had a full fridge stocked with food, water, beer, and wine to get us going, and was always available for help when we needed it regardless of what time it was. During our stay, we needed to wash some clothes and not only did Sharon generously do our laundry for us, she also folded it and had it ready for us when we came home from our outing that day. She was also available to provide suggestions on places to go, tell us about the neighborhood, and gave us short rides when we were in a pinch. On the day we had to leave, our flight got delayed and our departure time changed. Despite already taking us to the airport at midnight, Sharon was very flexible with any changes we experienced. We had such a wonderful time, felt like we were at home, and cannot wait to come back. ShaMa's Guesthouse is our forever spot in Barbados now! Thank you, Sharon!!

    Nothing to complain about.

    Can honestly say this was the best equipped apartment we have ever stayed in. Had everything we needed. Sharon couldn't have done any more to improve our stay. Welcome grocery pack was excellent. Location is great just a short walk to Dover beach and the various bars and restaurants. Will definitely go back again.

    One tiny little suggestion: to reduce the amount of plastic, big bottles of water might be an idea.

    ShaMa's Guesthouse is a gem. I stayed in the small room and was more than impressed by the fully equipped kitchen as well as all the toileteries in the bathroom. Sharon, the owner made sure to have everything you need in the fridge. I've never experienced such a generous welcoming so far. She also gave me a lift to the airport. It's a great place for a few days or even longer and I highly recommend to stay there.

    I didn’t have anything to complain about because she went above and beyond with all the amenities to make sure we were comfortable.

    Location was right down the street from several restaurants and Dover beach! She provided chairs for the beach and an umbrella for shading as well as beach toys! Ac and fans available to keep you cool. Wi-Fi, Netflix and Flow tv for your entertainment! Great stay! Sharon was so pleasant she made sure we had starter food and drinks, the place was clean and contemporary…she offered to take us back to airport, made sure we were very comfortable! Thank you Sharon!

    There was nothing that we did not like at Shama's.

    Shama's Guesthouse is a very short walk to Dover beach and all the restaurants, bars and a Supermarket in St Lawrence Gap. Everything thing you need for self-catering and more is provided. The apartment is on the ground floor. It is very clean and comfortable. There are even beach chairs, a beach umbrella, a boogie board and noodles provided for your use on the beach. Sharon is an excellent host and she can be easily contacted by WhatsApp at any time if you need assistance. She is very accommodating to your needs! A/C and TVs in each room for your comfort and entertainment.

    Absolutely nothing! Couldn't fault anything.

    Perfect location, just a few metres from Dover Beach and few metres in the other direction to Top Rock for local buses. The accommodation was so much better than expected, Sharon has thought of every detail, from sunburn lotion and toiletries to a fridge full of food and drinks to get us started. We were delayed by several hours but Sharon was waiting for us when we landed and had put food and wine on the table for our arrival. We were sad to leave so soon, Sharon even drove us to our next destination. The apartment itself had all the facilities we might need, well equipped kitchen, great showers , comfortable seating and aircon, with the added bonus of a quiet outdoor area to watch the world go by. Wifi was good and TVs in lounge and bedroom. It's a short stroll to the beach and a host of eateries. An absolute gem of a find and highly recommended!
