The Best Barbados Apartment Hotel Establishment I’ve Seen

Getting away from it all is no use if you can’t really “get away from it all.” And for me, this means really cutting off ties with civilization. I don’t want to see any more big buildings in my vacation. Nor do I want to see a busy town with roads full of cars and busy people. This is why when I go to a vacation in Barbados; I look for a cozy little Barbados apartment hotel that is far away from the big luxury hotels. I hate dealing with crowds when I am on vacation. I want to literally get away from it all as much as humanly possible. On my last trip, I got my wish. And it was all thanks to my stay at this Barbados apartment hotel called Tropical Winds.



Here’s is the front view of the hotel. It is really cozy, and the location is perfect since the east coast of the island is great for water sports especially since there are not too many people who like swimming there. The hotel was just a few minutes away from Long Beach, one of my favorite beaches in the island for personal reasons. And for all its value, one does not even need to pay a lot of money. It is truly a great Barbados apartment hotel.


This beach is another one of my favorite places in the island. Crane beach is world famous and has been named as one of the best beaches in the world in the TV show, Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous. Looking at that gorgeous white sand and those unreal azure waters would instantly remove all the stress from your body.

Surfing is really one of the most relaxing things you can do. You feel one with the wave and one with nature once you get to ride that sweet wave. It’s pure freedom.

Cheap Hotel on the South Coast

Everyone knows that the south coast has almost every expensive luxury hotel in Barbados. You can easily assume that this area is the Beverly Hills of this commercialized island paradise. However, the beaches are so gorgeous that the insane prices of most of these hotels or resorts are not enough to deter the middle class vacationer from going here.

The beaches of the southern coastline are excellent areas for water sports such as diving, wind and kite surfing and snorkeling because of their characteristic small to medium waves. The beaches here are therefore more popular for locals and tourists alike, making it the liveliest coast of all.

To aid my fellow middle-class fighters, I looked through the list of reviews for each of the different southern coast resort and hotel in Barbados and found the three cheapest ones.

The third cheapest is the Bougainvillea Beach Resort on Maxwell Coast Road. The establishment features attractive seaside townhouses with separate entrances that either surround the pool or face the lovely beach front. The rooms are perfectly designed for families and boast relaxing Caribbean pastel colors. A neat little fact about this place is that you can arrange to have a private cook who can prepare special Bajan cuisine.

The second cheapest is the South Beach Resort. Located on Main Road, this resort is actually a time-share vacation club. The look of the place is dramatic and picturesque. It’s run like a hotel minus the expensive costs. The rooms are clean and well-maintained, each of which features a very modern bathroom. The beach is located just across the street where it is easy to rent and purchase chairs, toys and even food.

The cheapest of the three is the inn called Peach & Quiet. It lacks the flashy features of your typical resort or hotel, but offers stylish suites instead. The suites are elegantly spare and are constructed more for simplicity and function. The property has its own freshwater pool. If the guests desire a swim in the ocean, the nearby beaches are but five minutes away. This establishment is for adults only.
