Property owners tend to accept bookings over the Christmas and New Year period on stricter terms than at other times of year. In general, bookings are subject to a 14 night minimum stay but owners may require a 3 week booking in some cases and will often need to approve dates to fit with their own travel plans or those of other guests. A higher deposit of 50% of the total rental price is payable for such bookings and the balance becomes due earlier at 90 days before arrival.
All prices quoted above have been calculated based on information provided by the owners but are subject to confirmation during December and January as occasionally owners may insist on the higher Christmas rate being applied either side of the main Christmas period. We suggest you contact us for a firm price quotation at this time of year, before making your booking.

I have a bit of a reputation amongst my friends and family for liking my holidays and as such do spend quite a lot of time researching destinations, hotels, villas, restaurants etc. Over the years I have built up a bit of a list of useful companies, agencies and contacts that I have come to rely upon in certain destinations around the world. I have to say that Lisa is right up there with the best in terms of helpfulness, attitude and responsiveness… …As far as Barbados is concerned I now have a new contact on my list and need look no further!Gary B
