Waterfront vacation rentals in Bridgetown

My partner and I stayed for a week in Jess’s apartment, whilst I surfed and remote worked from the UK and close to my partners home in Oistins. Jess’s cosy apartment was just what we were looking for, private, quiet, comfortable and with lots of outside living space. The breeze blows through all the open shutters making it nice and cool and we enjoyed dinners in the garden and afternoon naps in the hammock. The apartment is a 5 minute walk from Freights Bay to surf and 20 minute walk to Miami Beach and Oistins for the shops and places to eat. Jess was the highlight of the trip giving us loads of great recommendations and an all round great host and person. We will definitely be keeping in touch and saying again!

Miles and Karen looked after us well. There were small issues (there always are) and they dealt with them promptly and with understanding. The area and the unit are charming. Private access to the beach below is a great benefit. It is just off a road that is busy during the day. Whilst there is traffic noise we did not find that disturbing and did not interfere with our sleep. We appreciated the sizeable fridge freezer, the cooker that worked and plentiful kitchen equipment. The nearest supermarket is Jordan’s within 100 meters, mostly for basics. Holetown has a Massy’s store which is much better. Bus ride 15 minutes. Also more restaurants there to choose from. There is the Carlton store in the other direction. More choice than at Jordan’s. Again, 15 mins by bus. Off the sandy beach in the water there are rocks you find underfoot. Miles has provided rubber socks to protect your feet just in case. Within minutes is the Bikini Beach Club and that is a great asset.

My third stay at sunset sands says it all really! Excellently located close to several beaches and many local bars & restaurants the accommodation is well laid out, has great WiFi & aircon, super large comfy bed and everything you might need for your stay. Most importantly, your experience is enhanced by friendly and supportive staff right from first communication through to looking after you during your stay. I’d like to especially thank Alysia and Margaret once again for helping ensure my holiday was hassle free & ran as smoothly as possible.

I cannot overstate how pleased we were with this property and the beautiful location. It exceeded our expectations in every way. The private complex is beautifully maintained and Hayley & Logan proved to be the perfect hosts and provided useful information both before and during our stay. The only downside was having to say goodbye to this lovely place. Thanks for a most memorable stay - hope to be back next year.

This is an excellent place to stay on the west coast of the island, exactly as described. The view is outstanding with the beach at your doorstep. The apartment is very nice, comfortable beds, nice living room, fully equipped kitchen. Lots of recent upgrades! Easy access to the bus to get to places along the coast. Lots of nice outdoor spaces, with sofas and a table, all under a shelter. The barbecue is great to have as well and a grocery store just across the street. The beach out front is rocky so would recommend some water shoes. The hosts answered all our questions and helped us get a taxi back to the airport. You should have no hesitation to stay here!

It was exactly what I needed. Beautiful set up and location love the levels. Very spacious. Amazing beach setting Sound of waves all day Very local. Everything in walking distance or a cheap z van. Thank you for everything

Great location near the Gap, very spacious apartment, great pool, incredibly flexible and friendly local host (Orissa) (the flexibility was much appreciated as we had four 2 and under!) - an overall great stay!

We really enjoyed Glitter Bay. It was very peaceful and has a great beachfront. Swimming can be a bit rocky right on the property, but with access to the Fairmont Beach Club that is no problem. The service down at the bar and restaurant was friendly and accommodating. On our last night we had cocktails at the edge of the beach and watched a beautiful sunset--very memorable. The rooms have lots of space and the kitchen is serviceable. My only complaint would be that some of the finishes are not done as well as they could be (e.g., it is a tight squeeze to get into the cupboard with the safe and some of the cupboards aren't mounted that well). The location is great and you can walk into Holetown easily. It took me 3 days to realize there was a Fitness Centre, but once I did that was great. It is small but has everything I needed. Our cleaner, Margarita, was outstanding! She did an amazing job every day and was lovely to deal with. We would definitely return.

Lex’s place had it all. There is a beautiful beach right outside the back door, it’s walkable to a grocery store, several cafes and bars and the Friday fish fry. We also could grab busses right outside the house to get to Bridgetown for more beaches and restaurants. Walking around felt safe (well lit) but of course be aware of your surroundings and the cars wiz by so be aware of where the sidewalks are. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space. We loved how there were lots of towels and pillows! The only thing to prepare for is that the second bedroom gets traffic noise so maybe bring earplugs if you’re sleeping in that room.

Turtle Reef has been my lengthy stay in Barbados for many years. We refer to it as our home from home. The decor is totally my taste and is totally conducive to why it suits myself and my special needs daughter. John and Shirley are the perfect hosts.

Salty toes is unbelievable!, and it's a must visit! From the cleanliness of the house itself to the sandy beach coming right up to the outdoor seating area, simply amazing! It's one of those places that's quiet and off the main street but it has everything on its doorstep! lovely bars, restaurants, food courts, lovely boardwalks etc it has it all.. the house was spotless, fully stocked with everything you could imagine. Big cooker, big fridge freezer/ washing/ dryer facilities. Salty toes has ample space for families. Two big seating areas inside for eating at, and then the outdoor area just has to be seen! Amazing! All 3 bedrooms were huge, crisp clean linen and all beds with memory foam mattresses! We'll definitely be back to Salty Toes, home away from home. I'd be giving this place 20/10! Top Class Chloe, keep up the good work!

Fantastic house, beautiful west facing views for sunset over the sea, really close to Fish Pot restaurant with beach and pier to swim off. The house itself is even better than the photos, and the rooms are all to a high spec with aircon and lots of space. We liked being at the quieter end of the island, it's very private and quiet. David and Chris were excellent hosts, Chris was very helpful and gave us suggestions for lunch restaurants on the beaches. Would highly recommend and stay again, thank you.

We had a fabulous 2 week stay at La Canoa. With 6 of us there was plenty of space and we loved hanging out in the garden and on the veranda. We especially enjoyed the wildlife in the garden and the direct beach access. The kitchen was great, fully equipped and clean. Chris was a great host and swiftly responded to any questions we had. Having never visited Barbados before we could not have asked for more. La Cabane, the closest restaurant to La Canoa, serves the best food in a perfect location. (walking distance) We loved being by the harbour and rum distillery, there was something quite unique about this location. I would recommend hiring a car if you are staying here although we used the buses, we also explored further afield to the East and South coast Thank you Chris for providing such a wonderful place to stay in Barbados.

My family and I just returned from a wonderful week stay visiting family in Barbados. We have stayed at Seagaze before and honestly, you just can’t beat the location! Everything was great and we always always feel at home. We will definitely be back again!

This may be the best Airbnb I've ever stayed in! Great location, amazing views, well equipped, and wonderful hosts! Hannah and Russell were extremely communicative and helpful throughout the entire stay. Next time I'm back in Barbados I will be aiming to stay here again!

We absolutely loved Barbados, and our stay at the Blue Door Beach House greatly contributed to our enjoyment! The location is unmatched! Being right by a beautiful beach and also right by lots of happening nightlife was ideal for our group's preferences, and we rightly took advantage of both! Since I was celebrating my birthday, I took the master bedroom, and it was perfect for me! The bed was comfortable, and I loved that it the room has a full length mirror and its own TV. The place is very well stocked with supplies for the beach, including a large number of towels and a washer and dryer for laundry as well. I would definitely stay at Blue Door Beach House again on a future visit to Barbados!

Far exceeded our expectations. Garry is an attentive host, responds in minutes, very useful tips and recommendations. The attention to detail is excellent. The unit has EVERYTHING you can think of, and then some. Location is great, walking distance to restaurants, stores, transportation. The taxis are right outside. Midstay clean was totally unexpected and a lovely touch. We will be back.

Saudia is an amazing host that is responsive, helpful, and proactive. This was the easiest check in and check our process that I have ever experienced through Airbnb. Her beautiful property was everything I could have ever imagined and more. Her recs and attention to detail only elevated the trip.

Thank you Mary for allow me to celebrate my birthday. at one love , the location The view was everything i highly recommend one love .

Thank you, Rosanne, for an incredible stay. The condo is even more beautiful in person—spacious, stylish, and fully equipped with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable holiday (and then some!). The location is perfect, making it an ideal base for exploring the island. This is a truly well-thought-out Airbnb, and I have absolutely no regrets choosing it. Thank you again for the delicious rum punch and the thoughtful birthday card—such a lovely personal touch!

This was our first time in Barbados and this property made for a great trip. We would definitely stay there again. Great location right in the middle of all the St Lawrence Gap action and restaurants, but still felt secluded and private when on property. We were greeted at the location when we arrived and given a thorough walk through of the property as well as local recommendations. If you are looking for a place to stay on the south coast look no further!

Sandy View was a beautifully furnished and well appointed condo with ample space for 3 couples. The views from the balcony across the beach were stunning. Volney was fantastic and got us some shopping in for our arrival as the supermarkets were closed early on the Sunday. She serviced the condo regularly and promptly address an issue with the hot water. The booking process was easy and Richard was really helpful before we arrived offering advice on transportation and restaurants. The beach was lovely but be sure to go to Heywood’s beach just 10 mins walk from the condo to the right. Two supermarkets close by were great. I would recommend Baia, Local&Co snd Sand Street Bistro as well as the pizzas at Orange Street Grocer. Pier One about a 1 mile walk right from the condo offers lovely sunbeds and a pool free if you eat there. I would highly recommend @Shasacatamarancruises for a private charter to snorkel and swim with turtles with your food and bar included. Really good value.

Great place to stay, would love to come back! We come to Barbados once a year to visit family. This is by far the nicest place we’ve stayed. The location is amazing. And is the perfect distance to the boardwalk. The pool is great. The Ac was great, and the staff were always responsive and polite. Located within walking distance of a lot of things to do on the south side. Can get a bit noisy from the location but only for a few hours and we slept just fine every time. (And our 6 month old)

GREAT location - direct access to private beach - we saw a turtle swimming our last day and spent 15 mins following it.. was so cool. Paynes beach is actually where the Catamarans stop to see the turtles and swim. Lots of really nice restaurants around too.
