Amazing time!

This apartment is absolutely fabulous. Four of us stayed here during the Barbados Food and Rum festival. We enjoyed staying in and lounging on the huge patio as much as we enjoyed going out to events. Great location on the West Coast. Close to Holetown and walking distance to several restaurants. The pool was wonderful - warm water and never crowded. Food from the Hut was delicious! Rodney was very helpful before and during our stay. He connected us to one of our favorite experiences - the catamaran cruise. I would definitely return!!

Better than we could have imagined

Beach View #309 is the perfect place to base your vacation. It is so close to the beaches and the restaurants. We had a great time spending our days on the beach or by the pool, and then relaxing on the deck! The views are even better than the pictures! Rodney was great to work with in planning our trip! He was helpful before, during and after. Rodney knows the island and was able to assist us in choosing the right beaches and places to eat. He even lined up our golf outings! Don't hesitate to book this property, It was perfect for our vacation. It was even better than we could have hoped. The property is spectacular, the island is incredible and working with Rodney was a joy. Thank you Rodney for letting us use this great place!

Simply Amazing!

From the very moment my vacation began until the end everything was simply amazing! Rodney was such a pleasure to work with and was an amazing host. With such a busy schedule and planning this trip with four other young ladies, details that I may have forgotten Rodney was sure to include in our many emails. Upon arrival we were picked up and greeted by O’Brien who was equally as wonderful in helping us with transportation anywhere we needed to go. Although there is a cafe on site we chose to stop at the grocery store to stalk up on essentials and snacks. Once we arrived to the condo Rodney was there to greet us with light refreshments which I was not expecting but once again such a warm welcome and kind gesture and provided a quick tour of the place. I thought the pictures I had viewed for months were beautiful but seeing everything in person and standing on the balcony with the perfect view of the ocean and pool took my breath away! There was more than enough space between the 3 bedrooms, main living room and large balcony area that we didn’t feel over crowded. The new renovations done recently with beautiful closets and new furnishings throughout the condo was was the icing on the cake for me. Rodney was also great suggesting and helping book reservations for activities around the island. The Mount Gay Rum tour and sunset cruise with cool runnings are memories I will never forget and made my birthday that much more special. Spa services from Tutch Spa also recommended by Rodney was another pleasurable experience. Kal and team created a spa like atmosphere right in our condo and the services were splendid. Dinner at Cin Cin which is less than 5 minutes away overlooking the ocean was another highlight and the food was absolutely amazing. I can’t rave enough about my experience. I’ve traveled to many places but can honestly say Barbados felt like home and place I will continue to visit for years to come. The people, the traditions, and the beautiful beaches I can go on and on. If you are looking for a place that is peaceful and beyond beautiful this is definitely it! I can’t wait to return. Thank you Rodney for your kindness, attention to detail and being an amazing host!

We had the most amazing stay at Rodneys place! The experience started months in advance with Rodney emailing or whatsapping us with recommendations of restuarants or activities for the family. When we arrived we even managed to get an early check-in so the kids could enjoy the pool. The complex is impressive but the condo is out of this world. Its huge, incredibly clean and the views are 10/10. Rodney is an artist and he had created such a welcoming space filled with incredible touches like local flowers and amazing artwork. Dont hesitate, just book it. We were so sad to leave not only the condo, but Rodney also who became more like a friend, without being overbearing!

Wow, just wow. Without doubt the very best vacation rental of my life, and I have been to some other stunning houses. The apartment is stunning, the location is fabulous, and best of all, Rodney the host is incredible. Much more than a host, Rodney is a vacation planner that you will have never experienced before.

Beach view luxury

A fantastic holiday which was made by the quality of the property and the help of Rodney who runs the show. The apartment is developed to an extremely high standard in terms of furnishings and appliances and was impeccably clean and well maintained. It was a delight to see the extra treats that were left for us on arrival which made us feel at home immediately. The location of the property both in the complex of beach view but also generally on the west coast was ideal for the best beaches and restaurants. Rodney is the star of the show - nothing is too much trouble - dinner reservations, excursions, travel and entertainment - everything was taken care of. I would highly recommend the property and will certainly be returning again.

Outstanding Stay at the Beachview 309

Our stay was superb and communication with Rodney was 5 star. Before we even arrived Rodney was so helpful emailing us restaurant, bar, beach clubs, attractions and beach suggestions to make our visit the best! Upon arrival Rodney met us at the condo and gave us a tour of the beautiful property. The condo was stunning and spotless. Well prepared with everything we could need to stay in comfort. The view from the patio was the absolute best part of the condo. We could have sat there all day watching the ocean. Rodney had great beach toys and chairs available for a fun day at the beach. Pools on property were lovely. All in all it was one of our favourite trips to Barbados and we will be sure to be back and stay at 309 again! Thanks so much Rodney!!!! ❤️

Ten stars out of five!!!

This was our family's (my wife and I and three teenage daughters) first time to Barbados and my wife found this condo within minutes of looking on the Internet all based on its prior reviews. And, we can say with utmost confidence that both the property and Rodney lived up to it's expectation and more. The property or shall I condo is spacious, conveniently located and tastefully decorated by Rodney who is also an accomplished artist. That explains why it looks so good! We ate about half our meals in the condo during our stay so this was our perfect home away from home. As for Rodney, what can we say!? He was amazing, a difference maker really, and in the end our family now has a new friend. He was more than we could have asked for. Rodney was knowledgeable, reliable, helpful, responsive and very collaborative. He guided us to build a vacation that added structure with a purpose while enjoying time to relax, soak up the weather, the beaches and the ocean. With Rodney's help we ate at many great restaurants, saw the island and made sure we had timely and safe transportation wherever we needed to go. Whatever we needed Rodney was their to assist and always followed up to ensure everything was going smoothly. In the end, the whole trip was simply easy and Rodney is a huge part of this outcome. For that we are grateful. If you choose 309 (the number of the condo) we hope you create as many family memories as we did in the time we were there. Thank you Rodney!!!

Magical - Memories to Last a Lifetime - Thank you Rodney

It is very difficult to put into words how memorable and magical this family holiday was. Covid has made many reevaluate their priorities and almost everyone seems to conclude that experiences and memories are right at the top of what living is all about. We came to try to find these special moments. Barbados itself is beautiful and helps relax the soul, but genuinely Penthouse 309 and more specifically its wonderful host make this the most memorable experience you will likely ever have. To stay at Penthouse 309 with its very special host should be on every persons bucket list. We feel incredibly lucky as a family to have spent 16 nights there over Xmas. Rodney is the host of Penthouse 309 who exudes endless positivity, glorious creativity, deep care, unrivalled kindness and so much more. Rodney allows these special memories to be created by being the very best host in the business - providing customer service which is unsurpassed - a level of care you will unlikely encounter anywhere else. Everything is taken care of so perfectly from the moment you land on the island. From the best tables in every restaurant to the very best advice and itinerary you could wish for. The reputation Rodney has is being the very best host on the island - its amazing how highly people speak of him. A brand in his own right. Thank you, thank you, thank you Rodney!! The penthouse is simply amazing, everything you could ever want is there - so stylish and cool. So much care put into every single part of it - from the flowers to the amazing art Rodney has created. The view from the balcony is simply unbelievable and we are miss it so much. Sitting on the balcony in the morning when you walk up is very special indeed. Personally I have also never slept any better in the comfortable beds! I cannot recommend this experience in any stronger words. Please don't hesitate to spend your vacation with Rodney at Penthouse 309 in Barbados.

It's a perfect 10

We had the most fantastic time at apartment 309. Rodney is definitely the perfect superhost. Due to Covid we have had to carry this holiday over from last year and Rodney was constantly in touch with us over the last 18 months and he fully prepared us on the protocols before our arrival. The penthouse is spacious with an amazing outdoor living room and a great view. It is fully equipped in every area - especially in the kitchen and an amazing range of toiletries in the bathrooms. The beds are extremely comfortable. Rodney is a very friendly host with a wealth of local knowledge. He never failed to get us booked into the restaurants & trips we wanted. The Bay View complex is lovely with 3 pools and all the staff made us feel welcome. Whilst we were there, it was our daughter's ( Ella ) 18th birthday - what better place to celebrate it . Rodney booked us on a Cool Running's catamaran trip which was great and even managed to rustle up a bottle of pink fizz and a card for her. Many thanks Rodney. We had some memorable times and meals at the Seashed Beach Bar , Nishi restaurant in Holetown and Pier One at the yacht club in Port St Charles. We also enjoyed the cocktails at the Drift Ocean Terrace in Holetown and dining out at several other restaurants. Barbados is a fantastic destination for a holiday and we cannot recommend Rodney and penthouse 309 highly enough. Everybody is extremely friendly. Thank you Rodney & Barbados for a great time. We hope to see you again, very soon Rodney.

Beyond Expecation

Extraordinary island, extraordinary apartment, and a most extraordinary host. My wife and I flew from the States to this sanctuary on March 1st. Upon our arrival, Rodney met us at his penthouse apartment and cared for us like it was a 5-Star resort. Inside we were greeted with the best the island has to offer; it’s best chocolate, bread, coffee, rum, and an assortment of drinks and other edibles. The apartment was comfortable, spacious, and extremely well appointed. Every room had fresh flowers from the island that were replaced weekly. My wife and I travel often using Home Away and AirBnB hosts. One of my pet peeves is when we have to supply the entire apartment with the necessities such as wash soap, toilet paper, etc. Rodney had everything available in duplicate. Even when we purchased something we thought we needed, we found the same product available somewhere in the apartment. Rodney doesn’t miss anything. He made every one of our dinner reservations at the best restaurants. Even when we procrastinated, he found us table. He arranged all of our transportation with Derek Skeete, a taxi driver (if Derek had a website I could write a book regarding his efforts, service, and care). When the washer stopped working, Rodney had people there the next day to fix it. Nothing was difficult and we were never inconvenienced. The view, the pool and the people at Beach View were friendly and exceptional. My wife and I planned this trip for 1 ½ years to stay for a month and we had to leave early due to the coronavirus pandemic. Rodney and I had long talks regarding how the pandemic would affect the island. He was more worried about his friends and the island as a whole than he was himself though he too would experience the wrath of this pandemic. When my wife and I were discussing leaving, Rodney offered to make sure we would be housed if we couldn’t get home (think about that…he knew us for a few weeks and he was willing to make sure we were cared for). I want everyone reading this review to plan a stay with Rodney Arthur and the people of Barbados. In light of the world chaos around us, I couldn’t have been more impressed with how Rodney orchestrated our stay. My wife emphatically stated….”we get a do over”. Choose Rodney.

Bardados- first time

Fantastic, contemporary penthouse - Splendid View, Relax & More! Immaculate and stylish with everything you need. Well appointed furnishings, full kitchen and perfect balcony for ultimate relax and sunsets. Several lovely pools on-site and easy beach access. Rodney, the manager, is beyond helpful, professional and amazing! He knows this island paradise, offering an abundance of excellent insider knowledge and guidance. The trip was definitely dazzling with his suggestions and active help.... he goes above & beyond!! We golfed at Sandy Lane and Royal Westmoreland Golf Club.... stunning views with generous fairways. Our family enjoyed a private sunset cruise/ snorkeling with the sea turtles/shipwreck - arranged by Rodney. Perfect way to end our charming week. Many fab ($$$) restaurants within walking distance or short taxi away. Just saying.... 1 week is not enough time to explore everything! The island is larger than most think.... so take extra time to visit the Southside eateries/shopping/surfing scene. Don't miss Friday Fish Fry at Oistins with local arts vendors. St. Lawrence Gap and Maxwell's Beach has many more casual dining options and local flavor. Perfect for families, girls' trips or couples.... it has so much to offer - with relaxation and sunsets premier!

Perfection - Magical beyond Words - Penthouse 309 and The Legend that is called Rodney

It’s hard to put into words how magical our experience was in Barbados at Penthouse 309 in the Beach View hotel with Rodney as our host. This was a holiday when all the vital ingredients came together to create memories that will last forever. The ingredients: Barbados - simply paradise! Beach View - Such a great place. The pools are amazing. Everything is so very clean. The staff are incredibly friendly. The facilities are exceptional. Incredible views from all angles. Trust me when I say that you can pay 3 times as much and you won’t get half the quality. Penthouse 309 - this is the start of the special, secret ingredients which made this trip so special. The penthouse is simply amazing. So very beautiful in its decor - modern and sleek. From a massive curved screen TV (with Netflix etc) to every kitchen facility you could dream of, the quality is outstanding. The beds are so comfortable along with the linen. Each of the 3 bedrooms are so spacious The color scheme and furnishings are wonderful. It felt instantly like a home from home. The balcony and the views are beyond spectacular - trust me, you won’t forget the first time you see the ocean after opening the large patio doors. It was a pleasure to wake up every morning to that view and a delight to watch the mind blowing sunsets Rodney - This is the man who makes all the above come together. This man is unlike anyone you will EVER deal with in any realm of hospitality. A true hero. A gentlemen beyond words. Such a talent. Trust me - I run a property management company and I know detail and great great people! This is a man who cares so so deeply about his guests and strives for perfection in every single area of what he does. This eye for care & detail was felt during every second of our trip. The penthouse for example is looked after so meticulously by Rodney - it’s as if he’s foreseen every possible want or desire you may have. It’s amazing really - only a pure talent would be able to do as he does. For over a year before the trip, Rodney was in touch offering kind advise and help. During the trip, every single detail was organised perfectly by Rodney. From all our restaurant bookings (and changes - sorry Rodney!), activities, car hire, what beach to go to daily (!) and just priceless advise on how to navigate the island. We are truly grateful for all his help - life is about creating memories and Rodney has been instrumental in making these memories so special. Thank you!!!!!!

Amazing property and excellent manager

Beautifully appointed spacious apartment with everything you need for your holiday, the beach chairs and umbrellas were great. Surrounding gardens and pool areas immaculate. We never tired of watching the sun set over the sea from our huge balcony. Beautiful quiet beach , restaurants and bars only short walk away. Thank you Rodney for your help and prompt replies during the booking process, for an amazing stock of food and drink on arrival and for advice on places to go. We all had a truly wonderful time.
