OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:

**THERE IS A 7-NIGHT MINIMUM STAY FOR CHRISTMAS, AND OLD YEAR'S AND NO CHECK-IN/OUT ON 25TH DECEMBER, 31ST DECEMBER 2023, OR 1ST JANUARY 2024**

1 -Our property is 5 stories tall and built into the Maxwell Hill cliff front, while it boasts amazing ocean views it also comes with a lot of stairs. APT 3A is on level 3 which is 2 flights of stairs down from the top entrance and 3 flights of stairs up from the bottom entrance.

2 - Our property is clean, modern & central BUT IT IS A LOW BUDGET PROPERTY. With our low rental prices also comes low-budget furnishings. The bed frames are cheap metal frames & the mattresses are memory foam or spring hybrids all from Amazon. The bed while comfortable will squeak/shake with a lot of heavy movement. Our bed linens and towels are also from the Amazon low-budget line. Our kitchen items are from the dollar store & Walmart. The ACS while cold are budget-friendly window ACs built into the wall, and as a result, they are not the quietest.

3- In an effort to be eco-friendly we use solar-powered water heaters, as a result of this our hot water doesn’t get the hottest, especially on rainy or cloudy days.

4- We have opted for cost-effective wall-mounted window air conditioning units. It is important to note that these units may not offer the same level of quietness or cooling performance as the split system or central air systems that guests may be accustomed to in their home countries. As a budget-friendly establishment situated on an island with some of the highest gas and electrical prices globally, we are unable to keep the air conditioning units running in the apartments prior to check-in. We kindly request that guests operate the air conditioning units only while they are physically present in the apartment.

5- interior renovations on level 5 and level 4 might be occurring during stays. some noise may be experienced Monday-Friday 10 am-6 pm. We make every attempt to keep noise to a minimum while guests are in the building but as we expand some noise is unavoidable.

6- you are limited to the max apt occupancy + 2 free visitors at a time. Based on availability additional visitors can purchase pool passes at $25 USD/person or you can book the poolside party cabana for up to 40ppl for $300 USD or the rooftop deck for 15-20ppl for $ 150 USD. These Visitor/Party rules are subject to the government's emergency management act.

7- Our spaces while comfortable and stylish have compact footprints (please see the floor plan in the pictures).

8- We ONLY provide bath towels, guests will need to bring their own beach/pool towels. We only provide bed sheets, we do not have blankets/comforters as this is the tropics.

9- There are no landlines on the property. Guests will want to either buy local sims or be prepared to use their local cell roaming or download a WIFI messaging app.

10- The pool/cabana is sometimes rented out on weekends and during school holidays for private events which normally last 4-6 hours. The pool/cabana will be closed to guests during private events. We try to keep loud music to a minimum and require all events to finish by 10 pm at the latest. We will always notify you of any events on the property beforehand.

11- Please note we do not have 24/7 maintenance or housekeeping service like most hotels. Our maintenance and housekeeping staff are only available between the hours of 9am - 5pm

12- Our dedicated housekeeping and maintenance team is available to change your gas tank between 9 am and 5 pm. In case of an emergency run-out outside of these hours, you can easily access spare tanks in the guest supply closet (apt 2/tinyhouse) or the housekeeping room (apt 5a). Simply reach out to us via the platform you booked with or send a message to WhatsApp at 246-828-5519 (Rudo) or 246-266-6371 (Office) for the door code and a step-by-step video tutorial on how to change the tank.

13- As a tropical haven, our property is home to a diverse array of wildlife, including monkeys, lizards, birds, crickets, frogs, and mosquitoes. And, of course, let's not forget our family cat, Ginger. So, be prepared to immerse yourself in nature and enjoy the sights and sounds of the local flora and fauna.

14- Please be advised that our establishment operates as a self-check-in and self-service property. Access is managed through electronic codes and the property is monitored by video surveillance for your safety and security.

15- Please note that Barbados, being classified as a developing country, experiences occasional island-wide utility outages. Although these instances are not frequent, they are more likely to occur during the hurricane season. It is worth mentioning that our building is strategically located in the heart of the popular South Coast tourist district, which typically results in quicker restoration of services compared to the more rural and less densely populated areas of the island. However, it is important to be aware that our property does not possess backup water tanks, generators, satellite phones/internet, or natural gas tanks.

16- We do not operate as a hotel and do not provide services such as bellboy assistance, daily housekeeping, concierge assistance, or front desk services.

Paradise
The place is about 15-20 walk from Oisten Fish Market and the beach. Place has a pool which was awesome for lazy days. Management was nice with texting through the app to inform me of pool party’s that was going on, and about the wifi . My room had an info book that answer all my questions. Please read their info booklet it has All the info you need. This was very professional put together and it helped. I saw monkeys walking through the property that was amazing. I just had problems with the WiFi connection but I just put the iPhone away and use my Samsung. This place is great for low budget travelers, and very safe. Thank you Rudo

ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!!
This was my first trip to Barbados and I was so glad I chose to stay here. Everything was perfect! The price was very inexpensive for what you get. The location was very central and easy to get to all of the beaches and areas in town we wanted to go. We mainly got around by bus, and there was a bus stop very close and they came frequently. Our room was very cute, clean and comfortable, plus our host, Rudo, was extremely helpful and responsive in answering any questions we had. I would highly recommend this place to stay and I would definitely book it again the next time I have the opportunity to visit Barbados! Thank you so much! :)

About the host

Hosted by Rudo Catlin

Host profile image
I’m Shona, and this is my husband Rudo and our kids Kayla and Kaia. Together we own and run this little boutique hotel in the making!

Opening a stylish yet budget and eco-friendly boutique hotel has been a lifelong dream of mine. So in 2015 when we moved back to Barbados (Rudo’s Birthplace), we went on a mission to make this dream a reality.

We sacrificed and moved in with our parents to cut expenses and started saving up and looking for the right property.

In 2019 we purchased 19 Moravian Gardens/19 Maxwell Hill Road, a rundown 11-unit / 5-story oceanview apartment complex in Maxwell, Christ Church, and started doing a massive redevelopment, drawing on my experience as an Architect, Rudos experience as a Financial Advisor, and our joint love of unique budget-friendly travel.

We want to give you everything we look for in travel accommodations — safe central location, nice views, unique & comfortable interiors, and prices that won't break the bank ;-)

Right now only 7 of 11 apartments are finished and listed for rent on VRBO, and we are working hard to finish renovating the rest of the building. We know we have a LONG way to go, to truly make Paradise Point Barbados a boutique hotel, but we hope that you book with us and enjoy all that our holiday apartments have to offer — style, comfort, central location, oceanviews, pool access and GREAT VALUE FOR MONEY!

With love & light,
— Shona & Rudo Catlin
