Relaxing stay

We stayed at 89 Heywood Park for 10 days, enjoyed the peacefulness of the Neighbour hood, short walk to a nice quiet beach as well as Speightown, meals are reasonable priced at local restaurants in Speightown, always shopped at Jordan’s, good value for money, would consider staying again.

This was our second time staying here. We love the location and the amenities provided. Paul and Gabriel are both so helpful and accommodating. The upstairs apartment is clean and bright, and with so many windows in all the rooms, the cross breeze keeps it cool at night. Loved waking up to coffee on the small deck, and watching the birds and monkeys, even the chickens. We had a car, so getting around was no problem, but it is walkable to a beautiful beach, restaurants and groceries. God willing, we will be back again. We have been to Barbados many times, but this is our favorite place to stay. A local neighbourhood with friendly people. Feels very safe, and we couldn’t be happier with the apartment.

Family holiday

We had a wonderful time. This is probably the 5th time that we stayed in this house. In the past we always had the downstairs flat. This time we were upstairs. Downstairs is a little nicer.

X-mas at Heywoods

We enjoyed our stay. We are repeat customers. The only criticism we have is the lack of cooking related items. We had to borrow a grater from a neighbour. Also should have more bowls and dishes.

Comfortable and well-equipped apartment

Apartment A is upstairs and gets a wonderful beeeze, keeping it comfortable. We never used the air conditioner. It is very well equipped with all the linens, towels and kitchen essentials you could ever need. It's a great kitchen for a rental in this price range. We enjoyed our stay!

Wonderful Family holiday

The apartment was just simply perfect. We had a wonderful family holiday there (2 adults and 2 children). It was very well and beautiful furnished and the kitchen had absolutely everything you need. It was very also very clean and having 2 shower rooms was great. The location was perfect and we even had the ice cream van passing almost every day:) Thank you so much. We hope to come back. Nadia

Another great stay!

We have returned to the Apartment A for the second time. It is perfect for us - great location - close to some of the most beautiful beaches on the island. Communication with Paul is very easy and booking is always smooth. Jan and Gabriel are also great. The apartment is very clean, spacious, well equipped, and just simply perfect. We have two small kids, so we do miss the dishwasher but other than that we love it and are already planning another trip in May.

Enjoyable stay

We stayed at this location for 16 days , September 4 - 20, 2024 we enjoyed the peacefulness of the community . This location is perfect because of the distance to speighstown and the beach. On the negative side, the lighting in the bathrooms are not good for shaving. I would recommend that the chairs in the living room be steamed between clients. Chairs are needed for the balcony. However, I would stay here again.

Thank you for your feedback. We will look into improving the lighting in the bathrooms for future guests. We will also do a clean of the living room chairs more regularly. We have ordered more chairs for the balcony and looking forward to receiving them soon.

In general "Good" but not "Very good". Firstly, at the time of check-in, the location of the house is very difficult to identify. Google Maps doesn't take us to the right place. Google has never personally mapped Barbados. It was the government that provided the “Street View” images. Don't be fooled by what you see, the images must be dated or are fake. Fortunately there was a well-intentioned person to help us. The Barbadian people are very friendly, welcoming, kind and ready to help in any circumstances. Secondly, the accommodation is not at all where the application tells us when we click on "Get directions". The app shows us a spot on the edge of Heywoods beach, as the beach is a 9 minute walk away. But it's actually about a 20 minute walk from the beach. Third, the apartment is not fully air-conditioned. Only the living room. Rooms only have ceiling fans. Still a good experience despite everything. I recommend for a family of 4 but not 6. It was quite clean for our level of cleanliness, there was enough bedding for all the rooms. The kitchen could be better equipped. Gabriel reserved beach chairs for us for the entire stay. Barbados is a wonderful country with more than adorable people.

Low cost accommodation in a lovely area

Speightstown is a lovely part of Barbados, we enjoyed walking in to the little town, beautiful beaches, lovely places to eat and drink and not so busy as other places on the west coast, the apartment was quite basic and very clean and suited our needs the price was very good, Gabriel was very helpful and nothing was too much trouble, the apartment is in a residential area only 10 minutes easy walk from the beach and village shops, the bakery opposite The Orange Street Bakery ( also very good)is well worth a visit, Little Bristol beach bar does good food and has a good atmosphere,Jordons supermarket stocked most things you need and we also bought tuna and marlin from the fish market at a very good price. It was wonderful to see monkeys on our first morning on the telegraph wires in front of the apartment as well as hummingbirds, the only negative comment was the neighbourhood dogs constant barking.

1 night stay

We chose to stay in Douglas because of its convenient location near the beach. The owner was easily accessible and approachable, and we found the property with their help. We were also pleasantly welcomed by the cleaner. The property itself was kept clean, and the kitchen amenities were available for use. The washing machine was located outside. However, the bathroom was basic and unfortunately of poor quality. After a bit of searching, we managed to find plenty of towels.At night, the quality of sleep was poor due to noise from the neighbors and the water mattress, which wasn't comfortable. The pillows also left something to be desired.Overall, the best feature of the property is itslocation, with a short walk to the beach.

On the west coast

When we arrived we were not able to get into the lockbox as we were given the wrong code. We were unable to reach the property manager and ended up calling the host n the UK to get a code. Property is in a great location, however, not what we expected inside. Apartment is dated and in need of updated linens, mattress, bed pillows, shower curtains and basic small kitchen appliances. Main living area and dining area were good. Bathrooms not so much…on the surface clean but really needs a deep clean. WiFi and cable were good.

What,no fans?

This is the 4th time staying at this apartment. I love this neighbourhood and the apartment itself has a lot of positives. It has had a bit of facelift since the last time we were here. however, there were 2 big negatives for me:1. No room fans. Ceiling fans in all the rooms but when the bed is directly underneath, you don't get any breeze.2. The bedding - a PLASTIC sheet on the mattress (and I understand you want to keep it as clean as possible, but it just added to the fact that the bedding was all polyester and it all made for uncomfortable nights and less sleep than I would have liked, but don't let it put you off. If you want a cheap place to stay in this area with everything you need, then this is it.....

Hi santhia, thank you for the feedback. On the back of your comments we have now replaced the mattress protectors to lighter and more comfortable ones. Also replaced all pillows to match. There are more fans available for guests. We do update the apartments regularly to make them more comfortable for our guests and welcome suggestions. Thanks.

1st week March 2024 - Apartment A (top apartment)

Property internally is tired and in need of refreshing. Curtains in lounge don’t fit windows, cooker oven was not clean and smelt stale. Access through personnel gate was difficult through overgrown bushes and area at rear of property for access to washing line was again overgrown. When the bottom property was being used if they had showered before us in the morning there was no hot water left for us to shower in the morning (this must also have been the same for the downstairs occupants if we had showered first). On the plus side however the air conditioning and fans worked well and check in / check out was good. This property is very convenient for the beaches even if you don’t hire a car.

Why I Love This Property!

I have stayed at this property at least four times. I love it! The owners, greet you upon arrival. They make you feel right at home. Any problems, they are just a phone call away. The apartment is comfortable, clean and well supplied. My husband and I like to cook, everything you need is right there. The patios are lovely and there is always a welcome breeze and of course beautiful foliage. You have cable tv on a nice flat screen, ac in the living room and online services. The property listing is quite accurate. You are about 5 minutes from the beach, 10 mins. from Speightstown, where you can purchase groceries. There is also a great bakery in case you have a sweet tooth. The buses are nearby and this is a safe neighborhood. Most importantly, this great property is affordable. In fact, you have to book early or otherwise it is quickly booked. I have enjoyed this property everytime I've stayed! I would recommend this property to friends and family.
