Family-friendly holiday rentals in Saint Joseph

What a beautiful place to stay! We took our three children and it was the perfect family location. Amanda has thought of everything at the house and having the pool, gym and restaurant facility so close by was perfect. During our stay Marcia was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions. We would definitely book again if we visit Barbados.

This was my first time staying at an AirBnB in Barbados after several visits to either family members or hotels while visiting the island. My entire family (wife, 2 kids and my mom) were all highly impressed as were friends and family who visited us. The pool was perfect, the beach was amazing and listening to the waves on the balcony became a way for all of us to find peace and quiet. The security was friendly and informative. Our host Jameela was an ANGEL! We have many travel struggles getting to the island and she was always responsive, supportive and helpful. The cleaning lady was so friendly and did an awesome job. We will definitely be coming back the next time we are back in Barbados!!!

We stayed at 204 Mistle Cove for one week. The location is right in the heart of Lawrence Gap with all restaurants and amenities within walking distance. The apartment itself is just as advertised, although the view is actually nicer than the pictures. The main room sleeps with a broadview of the ocean and the calming sounds of waves. The patio is spacious and perfect for breakfast , lunch and dinners in front of the ocean. My daughter loved the pool and the ocean front was a lot of fun with the high waves. A calmer and longer beach was only a two min walk from the apartment at Dover. Overall, we had everything we could have needed here, and would easily stay again if we go back to Barbados.

We had the best stay at Sugar Hill Resort, the apartment and all furnishings were of a really high standard with absolutely everything you could possibly need. All communication was perfect and we thought it was great value. The location was so peaceful yet just a few minutes drive from the beach and restaurants. If we had longer we would have made use of the Fairmont but enjoyed the resort pools too much. We would definitely come back. Thank you 😊

Wayne and his team were very helpful. The house was prestige and in a great location. When I return to Barbados, I will 100% be booking with them

Only a 5 min walk to the freights bay surf break - so if you’re going to surf this is an awesome place to stay. The house was very spacious. Highly recommend.

Enjoyable stay. Met fantastic people sharing the same block. Nice to hang around the pool and chill. Beach is 2 mins walk so easy to get to and the sea is a stunning turquoise blue.

Jason and his family were excellent hosts. Great communication before check-in and always on hand to answer any questions throughout my stay. The room also has everything I needed with some very thoughtful touches I did an adventure hike through the rainforest with Jason as my guide, which was absolutely unforgettable and I’d definitely recommend doing this. The area is very secluded but there’s a few small convenience stores selling what you need. I found the local people are amazingly friendly and there’s a great sense of community in this small village. Is definitely recommend visiting this part of Barbados.

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.

I absolutely loved staying at this Airbnb. Had a very spacious cottage, with my own private little garden. It also has a large very well kept main garden. It is two minutes walk to the boardwalk and the sea, and many restaurants and bars and shops in close proximity. The hosts were extremely friendly, very nice people, also live on site. They have a Beautiful ginger and white cat, who spent a lot of time with me, I was there for three weeks and still miss that lovely cat.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Paolo was extremely helpful and friendly with great recommendations. The house is on a cute gated street across the street from a great surfing spot. Walking distance to Miami Beach which is a pleasant beach with a ton of shade trees. Oistins local fishing village is close enough to walk. For more lively area a quick jaunt to Rockley beach by car. For us a quiet walk to the surf and beach was ideal. Paolo must be one of the friendliest hosts we’ve had! The house was spacious and serene. Kitchen had all the necessary items. Can’t wait to return!

This is a perfect place to stay , zeema and Paul were very helpful and really nice people , the location is walking distance from Dover beach literally 10 steps , many restaurants walkable around the area , st Lawrence is walking distance as well where the bar areas are and more food it’s about a 10 min walk I really enjoyed my stay and would stay again . Paul was even nice to offer me a couple rides when he was free but I was unfortunately on the beach ! Would stay here again ! And definitely worth the money

Staying at Peter’s is hard to describe. We stayed 9 nights in The View as a base whilst visiting relatives. It was the most tranquil and beautiful setting to wake up in every day. The accommodation is very, very basic, but you have to see beyond that.Staying here is an experience so unique, it’s almost priceless,and that is down to Peter.Such a genuine and kind human being, who wants all guests to have a memorable stay. The furniture,appliances, & fittings have really seen better days. The cleanliness could have been better, but somehow none of this mattered to us. Oughterson feels like your favourite, most comfortable pair of shoes, that are worn out, but you keep wearing as you love them so much. 1st night dinner round the long table & fresh pancakes delivered for 1st breakfast set the scene. The grounds, the wildlife, the pool, pizza night, the jam, movie night, the dogs, like-minded guests (hey Tom & Lola), and Peter. Our stay grounded us and we will cherish the memories.

Quiet, beautiful spot on the south end of the island. Great, private view of the beach and mangroves from sprawling gardens. Occasional monkey visitors. Practical kitchen with needed equipment. Good ac in bedrooms. Giant sliding door for the main room. Strong WiFi in office and most of house and immediate deck (occasionally unstable but think that’s island issue). 15 min to grocery store. Most higher end restaurants and resort beaches on northwest coast 30 min+. Short walk down to beach - rough not swimmable but beautiful. Host was the most helpful we’ve ever had with Airbnb. Helped with all kinds of activity / reservations (for a nominal fee).

Chris was a great host, very welcoming and responsive throughout our stay and was kind enough to accommodate our request on the last day. Place is exactly as per the photos, clean+had all the necessary items to make it a comfortable stay. We loved the fact that, although we were six adults, the space never felt small — loved the 2 bathrooms, and 2 separate showers + each room had a little en-suite vibe (working sink + mirror). The patio was spacious: the best hangout spot. Beautiful stretch of beach: very peaceful. Beach chairs were useful but very old, and some broken. The only downside of our stay, was that the six of us got eaten alive by the amount of mosquitoes/sand flies/no see-ums (not quite sure what it was) but in my 12 years of coming to Barbados (always around the same time) never had so many bites. No mosquito nets in the home. Reco: Highly recommend using mosquito repellent to avoid the pain. Overall would recommend this space for a great stay!

Great village in a tranquil location. Amazing terrace, very good equipped, clean villa with everything you need. Great value, just a 5 km away from Heywood beach or Nikki Beach. Just remember to have a car for moving around the island. Faith was very helpfull. Thank you once again.

What a wonderful vacation house in Cattlewash. So lovely to fall asleep to the waves. You can see the ocean from both bedrooms and the nice front pouch. The pool is so nice to have and is about 5 ft deep. Very convenient to have laundry as well. Round rock and beach access is just across the road, maybe a 3 minute walk. One night the ice cream truck drove straight up the driveway to serve us! The only thing I would say to be aware of is that there are millipedes in the general area and they do wander into the house so bring some bug spray. Absolutely would stay again. Thank you!

I had a wonderful week long stay!! home was easy to locate and check-in went extremely smooth. the home was comfortable and had everything I needed for my stay. thank you again for a great stay! I look forward to staying with you the next time I visit the island!

As we had stayed in Vuemont before we knew the location. The villa was clean and comfortable, but a few scatter cushion would have been helpful. Great deck, very breezy and shady, which is great, but only 2 lounging chairs, not a problem for us. It is probably the best Villa we have stayed in. The house manager was very responsive and the cleaner was very thorough and on time. The kitchen was fully equipped for all our needs, we self cater nearly all our meals. The local supermarkets have all you need at reasonable prices (for Barbados!). There was a brand new dishwasher, which is rare in Barbados and we looked after it, by adding salt and a little rinse aid, but rinse aid is hard to come by in Barbados, so you might want to bring some with you. Remember the water is 'hard' so needs all the help it can get! You will need a car but some of the best beaches are only a 5 minute drive down the hills. Will be returning to have our winter sunshine fix.

My family and I had a fantastic stay . The place was just as described in the pictures and the host was wonderful and responsive . It was a peaceful getaway yet near to supermarket a small plaza , food eateries ,banks and a gestation also close to transportation . My overall rating is 10 stars . We will most definitely be back. Thank you so much Fiona for making our stay an enjoyable one

Jenn's place is incredible! She, her husband and daughters extremely welcoming and kind. It's exactly as described: breezy and spacious 2 bed, 2.5 bath. It's very quiet/safe yet only 6-8 min drive from the west coast beaches and restaurants. Haymans development is very close. Beautiful pool, outdoor grounds and pastures nearby for a nice morning walk to see cows, goats, monkeys, ducks and horses. We will be back!!
