Beachfront holiday rentals in Freights Bay

As a first time traveller to Barbados, Tonia was the best host and made our stay memorable. She was quick to help out with our needs and also suggest the best spots to visit. Thanks Tonia!

Lex’s place had it all. There is a beautiful beach right outside the back door, it’s walkable to a grocery store, several cafes and bars and the Friday fish fry. We also could grab busses right outside the house to get to Bridgetown for more beaches and restaurants. Walking around felt safe (well lit) but of course be aware of your surroundings and the cars wiz by so be aware of where the sidewalks are. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space. We loved how there were lots of towels and pillows! The only thing to prepare for is that the second bedroom gets traffic noise so maybe bring earplugs if you’re sleeping in that room.

My husband and I fell in love about 8 years ago with Barbados and this was our 8th visit to Barbados. We booked this villa about 3 days prior to our arrival, and were impressed with the quick communication and very easy self check in. The villa is beautiful, nice and white and bright. The beds were very comfortable and it was spotless. Plenty of beach towels and bath towels! It was lovely sitting on the deck watching the surfers, we felt safe and happy in the Freights Bay Area with a quick walk to Miami Beach, the location of this villa was convenient and within walking distance to the fish market and Masseys grocery store! A lovely villa in deed and another wonderful vacation in Barbados.

We had a great time at Jacqueline's place. The place is comfortable and peaceful at a great location near the sea. There garden is nice with shade from the trees and we enjoyed the ocean view from the sofa. Very friendly and helpful host. It is recommended to have a rental car to move around, because the place is not close to the popular beaches, supermarkets and markets. Overall it is a great place to stay!

Great place overall! The unit itself is roomy, recent and clean. The location couldn’t be better; on The Gap, but not right in the bars section so it was quiet at night but you just had to walk 5 minutes to get to the action. Great host and his co-hosts were great as well. My wife and I really enjoyed our time and will be looking to come back with our daughters!

Thank you Leslee Ann for welcoming us into your home and for your great communication throughout. We really enjoyed our stay and very much appreciate you accommodating our evening flight with a late check out.

We loved our stay at Whispy Waves. We were only the 2nd guests to stay here, so everything was new and the decor was to a high standard. The kitchen was fully equipped and had everything we needed. The bed was huge and very comfortable. Plus there were plenty of towels and extra linens. The covered patio was great for the evenings and watching the sunsets. It is in great location close to all amenities. Although just off a main road it still felt very private. The addition of private beach access, beach chairs supplied and a laundry room was a huge bonus. We've stayed at many places along this main Road, but this was definitely our favourite. Thanks Chloe and hope to be back soon.

We had a fabulous 2 week stay at La Canoa. With 6 of us there was plenty of space and we loved hanging out in the garden and on the veranda. We especially enjoyed the wildlife in the garden and the direct beach access. The kitchen was great, fully equipped and clean. Chris was a great host and swiftly responded to any questions we had. Having never visited Barbados before we could not have asked for more. La Cabane, the closest restaurant to La Canoa, serves the best food in a perfect location. (walking distance) We loved being by the harbour and rum distillery, there was something quite unique about this location. I would recommend hiring a car if you are staying here although we used the buses, we also explored further afield to the East and South coast Thank you Chris for providing such a wonderful place to stay in Barbados.

The best airbnb I’ve stayed at, felt like a home away from home i will most definitely be back

This listing was great. Perfectly located near to restaurants and groceries. An ideal central location in my opinion and we felt safe as the compound is gated. Our luggage was lost but the list had a wash/dryer with detergent so we could keep our clothes clean until our luggage was returned to us. An overall great stay and I would recommend.

Book This Place Quickly!!! This property was EXCELLENT! It was not just as described. It was better than described. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. It was very quiet in the community; so quiet that you could hear the waves hitting the beach (Welches Beach) at all times of the day and night. Super safe location that was only steps away from Massey’s Supermarket and Oistins Fish Market. The apartment was very clean and well kept. The beds were very comfortable and made for a good night’s sleep. The outdoor property was daily maintained and manicured. Very adequate amenities to make the place feel like home in paradise. Jameela and the other co-hosts kept in close contact just to make sure that things were to our satisfaction. And that’s how you become a SUPER HOST!!! Kudos to the Team! We hope to come back to the Island, and when we do, we hope Lighthouse Bay Apartment #102 is available!!!

From our first enquiry to check-out, our experience with Preetam and this property was exceptional. We were traveling from Ireland with our 3-year-old and 5-month-old and were a bit nervous, but everything we needed—travel cot, highchair, baby bath, even kids' plates—was ready for us. Though there were no reviews when we booked, we were quickly reassured—the apartment was even better than the photos. Thoughtfully decorated and fully stocked, it’s clear a lot of care went into every detail. We’ve traveled a lot, and this was by far our best accommodation experience. Having the sea right outside was a real treat, and the beach was quiet and peaceful. One note: we’d have been lost without a car, as most restaurants and amenities are around 30 minutes away, there is not a lot in the immediate location. Definitely ask Preetam for restaurant/ disk recommendations! You are in for a treat! It really was the most beautiful place to stay, thank you.

The sound of the waves crashing especially at night was beautiful. Beautiful clean pool and refreshing. A+++++

Stunning apartment, with ocean views from every room. Amazing layout for 2 couples, with basically 2 suites. Unbeatable st Lawrence gap location and lovely host. Plus a little pool, just as cool as you didn't know you needed! Many thanks for have us. It was wonderful, a dream vacation.

Cam's place was exactly as described. Cam was also easy to communicate with. He was able to connect me with a local grocery delivery service, which was extremely helpful as i was traveling with twins!! Would recommend his place to anyone traveling to Barbados as it is only a short drive to downtown Oistins with plenty of local restaurants.

Keisha was very available. She made sure to touch base with us multiple times before we arrived in Barbados. Once we got to the Airbnb she was super welcoming. Gave us a tour of the place and gave us recommendations for local stores/ restaurants and taxis! She also gave us little cupcakes because it was my girlfriend’s birthday! When we come back to barbados we will definitely be coming back here! Would recommend to anyone wanting a safe house near the beach and oistins fish fry!

The air conditioning worked great! The house was very clean and the house amenities were on point. The Bay Garden is a 10 minute walk away. Just make sure coming back to the house you get on ZR van #11.

Great location and an adorable place in a calmer part of the island. Perfect for a week long getaway. Ideal for somewhere with a view of the water.

We stayed at Rachel’s beautiful waterfront property in Barbados for nearly three weeks, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The view was absolutely breathtaking — waking up to the ocean every morning was a dream come true. Rachel was an outstanding host with incredibly fast and thoughtful communication throughout our stay. She made everything seamless and stress-free. Highly recommend staying here if you're looking for a relaxing, scenic escape with a host who genuinely cares!

We enjoyed our stay at Kurt's apt. Few mins away from the beach. Oistins was a 5min walk . Lots of food there. This apartment was nice and cozy. Enjoyed sitting in the patio relaxing on evenings.

This place was a lovely place for my family and I and is close to the islands main attractions by car! From checking in to checking out it was a smooth process altogether.. The host was always responsive and Kiana was very nice and helpful with any questions we’ve had!

My sister and I had a great stay here and we had everything we needed to feel at home. Home was easy to find, peaceful, and was a short drive to the airport, supermarket, beach, etc. The apartment was clean and nicely decorated. Lory was very responsive. We appreciated that the building was well lit, had cameras around the building, a covered carport, and outdoor seating. Just so others are aware, the ac is motion sensored and one of the beds is very firm. We had no issues with the ac as it worked well/quickly, but it did turn off after a certain amount of time if no motion was detected (just something we didn't expect). Regardless, I would highly recommend anyone visiting the island to stay here!

Philip and Tina were incredible hosts with a beautiful home. The place accommodated everything we needed. The beach right in front was for Camelot House guests only, and chairs and umbrellas were set up daily. We were able to walk the boardwalk every night and enjoy dining and drinking right along the boardwalk. We look forward to booking with them again.

The pictures don’t do this place justice. It was even better in person. The location is perfect, close to the beach & lots of restaurants. Supermarket right downstairs. The communication from Glen was great, I didn’t need to ask any questions, & he provided helpful suggestions for the area. I would 100% recommend & return to this place.
