All beaches are public. There are banks,car hire, taxis, and local inexpensive buses into Bridgetown, and "tourist attractions" which are used by both visitors and local alike.

Barbados offers an opportunity to experience a Caribbean lifestyle influenced by its traditional British history.The first settlers arrived in1627,& the island still retains its British Parliamentary system. It has a reliable infrastructure, offering the comforts and safety of most Western countries.

Since the island is roughly triangular in shape, the 3 coasts offer a totally different ambience. The east coast bordered by the Atlantic ocean, is wild, rugged, beautiful, isolated, & unsuitable for swimming in most areas. The south coast, has heavy surf, and is more industrial, commercial, & has numerous fast food outlets, plus local markets. The west coast, known internationally as the Platinum Coast,borders the blue Caribbean Sea, which is normally calm and suitable for all varieties of water sports.

The Best Panoramic View on the west coast !! Easy access (4 min. walk)to stores, bars, restaurants, banks, etc.- NOT on the main road so NO constant traffic noise -(there is a hotel next door which plays music between 8.00pm- 10-30pm, and also a beachbar )

Instant access to the beach - which is only 10 feet away,

( I walk 4 miles on the beach every morning!) - garden with pool plus sun and shade with trees,flowers, umbrellas, garden furniture. - Safety. features galore !- Easy access (4 min. walk) bank, to bus into city, or taxis, or car hire. Supermarket will even deliver groceries.

As Barbados lies outside the hurricane belt, usual weather is blue sunny skies and white puffy clouds, normal showers being of short duration. Average daily high 30C. Sea temperature's a constant 80F.

Response from the owner Thank you so much for your kind review of my home. The condo owners are aware of the less than ideal amount of parking space (there is an ongoing court challenge regarding this issue) - however, so far there has never been an problem during high season, and even when 1st Street is full of party goers - they always move to allow cars to pass through. I am very fortunate that the sounds of revelry from 1st street are never audible in condo #1, only the sound of the sea lapping on the beach. I am really pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay, and I will look forward to welcoming you back for another Bajan holiday in the future. Thank you once again for taking the time to write- it is appreciated.
