Mata and family, Thank you for a wonderful stay during our week there. My daughter and I had "The Best" time during our stay in your apartment.
Barbados is like our second home; we vacation there many of times but this was the first time we stayed at the Hibiscus Apartments in St. James. The apartment is in the best location … everything is nearby i.e., banks, gas station, mall, restaurants, supermarket, etc. Plenty of things near the apartment. My daughter and I especially loved the use of The Beach House across the main road during our stay. This was the first time having use of a pool while visiting the island. There is no need to rent a car as public transportation is very nearby and readily available to take you anywhere on the island for Bajan $2.
There is a supermarket nearby but since I’m familiar with Barbados, I shop at Jordan’s in Speightstown, the next parish up since it’s cheaper than the supermarket nearby. There is also a Barbados $3 store in Speightstown which I love to visit first for the little things. I especially love how the Bajan food trucks are nearby the apartment with locals selling full course meals at Bajan $12-$14 which includes fish, chicken, lamb, rice, macaroni pie and salad just to name a few. These meals are 2 meals in 1 so there is no need to cook ... Meals on Wheels.
The beds in Apartment 1 are extremely comfortable and relaxing. Thank you Mata for being the exceptional hostess. Mata had arrangements for pickup and return to the airport and is a resource of things to do, etc. ... very accommodating. We fell in love with Mata and especially enjoyed the conversations. I look forward to spending future trips with Mata and her family. I can see myself living in the apartment for the entire summer. I loved staying at the Hibiscus Apartments. It’s kind of tucked away with privacy and is so relaxing. Mata, you are a pleasure and a really sweet lady.
Fondly,
Cynthia
