Barbados Barbados cruise stop/beach break
Posted: Thu October 22, 2009 05:51 PM UTC
Last time in Barbados was 29 years ago. Stayed at the Sand Acres. Remember St. Lawrence gap as very attractive with good variety of restaurants and hotels. I wrote an e-mail to Almond Hotels to get permission to spend the day at the Casuarina. The HO was supposed to ask the local manager. Did noy get reply. Too bad because we could go back for a vacation if we liked the place. We are Canadian seniors, respectful of others and prepared to pay for services rendered by hotel.
Any ideas of other hotels or beaches in that area? Can we take the bus from the pier? What no. please? Many thanks.

Barbados Where can I rent a cell phone
Posted: Tue October 20, 2009 10:35 PM UTC
We will be in Barbados this Friday till Nov 2nd and want to rent a cell phone for local use for a week. We have our own US phones but the cost to call within BBD is extremely high. We would like to be able to make local call within BBD. Three years ago we were able to do this but I cannot seem to find the place I rented from again. I know we pick up the phone from a kisok in a mall. Any suggestions?

Barbados Remaining validity of passport for entry to Barbados
Posted: Mon October 20, 2008 03:04 PM UTC
My wife and I are planning to go to Barbados in Dec and January. Her (Russian) passport expires in April and is not so easy to renew quickly. We would have a return ticket on arrival.

The following places say this is OK:
UK fco site, numerous websites, barbados tourism office, barbados high commission (by phone)

The following places say min 6 months validity required;
numerous websites, virgin airlines, barbados foreign ministry website

By e-mail, the London barbados high commission said that 'ideally' 6 months is required.

So the questions are;
1. would virgin let us on the plane
2. would barbados immigration let us in for up to 28 days as is permitted to Russians without a visa. What does ' ideally' mean?

It looks that we will need to renew the passport to avoid risks to our holiday.

Hi

I am travelling to Barbados in September. We will be going to the Maxwell beach area.
I just wanted to know if anyone thought this might be a bad idea due to Ieke and Josephine which are currently circulating. i would want to go all that way to be washed out :(

would you suggest to still go? will these be gone by then?

Thanks

Barbados Shall I visit Barbados this summer?
Posted: Mon February 18, 2008 02:26 PM UTC
Hello,

I have always wanted to visit the carribean and never been! Barbados has stood out as being beautiful, relaxing and well worth going to.

I have thought about visiting there this summer 08, from the UK for 2 weeks. I have found some reasonable flights and looking into getting a villa, apartment to stay in separately!

Just a few questions:

Whats the weather going to be like? Is it too risky going in August?

Is it very expensive?

Are there lots of things to do?

Also, if anyone knows of any villas/apartments for rent it would be much appreciated.

Many thanks
