AMAZING DISCOUNTED 14 NIGHT RATES FOR SUMMER 2024 Now booking to January 2025
There's many choices when it comes to accommodation in Barbados.
Many luxury hotels offer suites that provide living space as well as sleeping space, staying in a Battaleys Mews house offers a huge amount of living space, at 2350+ sqft it's amongst the largest of the 3 bedroom rentals available and also has a private garden, plunge pool & parking.
Battaleys offers a clean, modern home from home where everything works and is comfortable in a safe, private complex.
Staying in a house suits the more independent traveller looking for timetable free living but Battaleys also offers many facilities found in a luxury hotel complex.
Mullins Beach is super close and features many facilities including loungers/chairs and umbrellas as well as motorised and non-motorised water-sports.
Many hotels and rental apartments that are even slightly closer to the beach can suffer from high volumes of noise from the main coast road which can be disturbing, Battaleys is close to the beach but not so close the road the noise is intrusive.
The result is a quiet location thats close to the beach, restaurants and the west coast facilities, which feels like home with all the extras!
If you've never visited Barbados you'll be glad to learn that apart from it's world renowned white powder beaches and great climate (it does rain in Barbados but the locals call it liquid sun!) the best thing about Barbados is the Barbadians, the locals are always warm and friendly, crime is lower than other Caribbean islands and everyone wants you to have a great time.
The weather is consistently warm all year around with temperatures of around 80-85'F / 26-31'C daily highs, there is more rain between Jun-Nov when it's generally slightly warmer and there can be heavy showers and occasional floods but often the ground is dry within 20m of a shower.
Battaleys is well positioned to access most of the attractions and activities on the island with the notable exceptions being surfing/windsurfing and oistins fish fry which are near the airport on the south of the island.
It's no co-incidence that many of the world's rich and famous choose to buy a property in Barbados and many visitors return year on year because of the great vibe, restaurants, attractions and relaxed approach to life on Barbados.
One question that gets asked about Barbados is if the water is safe to drink - yes it is generally but some people prefer to buy bottled/spring water for the taste - particularly if you like tea! Occasionally the water supply can be interrupted so it's a good job we have a large storage tank.
Car hire is generally more expensive in Barbados because of the high taxation on vehicle imports, whilst we can help with cost effective car hire, it can be even more cost effective to be driven around,..
- and why not, you're on holiday?
Of course it depends on what you plan to do but there are three basic options;
If you plan to explore the island and do lots of trips then renting can make sense but due to the location of Battaleys, you can stay in the complex, walk to the beach or easily get local transport to the Supermarket and if you'd like to eat out frequently, which is a great way to explore the culture and cuisine, you may prefer to use a taxi/chauffeur which we can help arrange if you require.
Remember in Barbados we drive on the left which whilst making the Brits, Aussies and South Africans happy, can be a bit confusing to other nationalities.
Most rental cars provided are automatic however some are provided as manual/stick shift so please check if you are used to driving an auto.
Driving at night and driving on some of the more rural roads in Barbados can also be challenging for less confident drivers due to poor signage/markings.
GPS Maps on a smartphone are popular and in particular the Wayze application has a lot of the resorts, landmarks and attractions listed.
Battaleys is a real comfortable home from home and most of the things you'll find at home are provided for you such as a selection of CD/DVDs, clean 100% Egyptian cotton bed linen, towels (including beach towels), crockery, cutlery, utensils, as well as the small electricals you may be used to such as a coffee machine, toaster, kettle, hairdryer, mosquito mats, fire smoke alarms, iron and board.
If you find something you needed that wasnt available please let us know and we'll do our best to get what you need and/or provide for future guests.
You will almost definitely need sun tan lotion but please be aware that certain brands, particularly the long-lasting ones like Lancaster P20 can mark and damage furniture, so care should be taken.
Masseys supermarket in Holetown is modern and well stocked with a wide range of products including US and UK supplier's products like Waitrose.
Well firstly kids tend to love the weather and the outdoor beach lifestyle and the house has one of the largest enclosed gardens in Battaleys to play or just chill out, but Battaleys clubhouse also has an dedicated (unsupervised) play area.
Kids are welcome at the communal pool during daylight hours providing they are accompanied by an adult, as there is no on-duty lifeguard, however there is a bar to assist with drinks and packaged snacks for the kids and adults alike and the admin staff are based in the clubhouse.
There are some awesome excursions including the catamaran trip shown on our Special Offers page and for the ultimate trip why not consider a real submarine ride!
Mullins Beach is also a great place to spend the day and is easily within walking distance (even with kids) - it's about 500m and most of the route is on the quieter streets, the remainder has a path.
If you would like to arrange a sitter we can provide recommendations and/or actually arrange this for you.
We would always recommend children are not left unattended at any time.
We understand that it's a bit of a catch-22 trying to book a flight and accommodation and whilst you are booking one, the other disappears.
We will hold your preferred dates for 24h on request, when they will automatically be released if we do not receive a formal booking, we hope that helps you organise flights and accommodation.
You can either book with us directly or via several partner websites, but please note that Special Offers may only be available on direct bookings via this website.
You are welcome to use a third party service so your costs can be attributed to a credit card and your payments are protected -
you may be required to register.
Just fill in the contact us form providing either your proposed or confirmed dates and we'll normally get back to you within 24 hours, but often much less.
Please take at least as much care as you would at home with your safety and security, it's very easy to forget to be cautious when you are on holiday in such a tranquil and relaxing environment.
Access to the house is via several steps both at the front and the rear making access for wheelchair users or for those with reduced mobility a consideration.
The bedrooms are all on the upper floor and as such may also present access challenges for those not able to climb stairs.
We want you to have a wonderful holiday and therefore it's worth considering what could go wrong even if the likelihood of it happening is very low.
Young children should be closely supervised at all times, particularly with the plunge pool being unrestricted and like most properties staircase, floors and patio being marble, which can be slippery, particularly when wet and the lower cupboards in the kitchen being easily accessible to children, we would advise careful consideration of storing any chemicals or other cleaning products, dishwasher tabs etc. anywhere accessible that may present a risk to children.
Most low level crime that may occur in Barbados tends to be opportunistic, much like the rest of the world, therefore don’t leave valuables on display either in the house or any vehicle you may be using, don't wear valuable jewellery overtly when generally walking around and avoid walking on the beaches after dark.
Battaleys is located in an area of low crime generally and is also away from thoroughfares and access is via a private gated entrance on a road that leads to just one other property, so is away from casual passers by, which probably makes Battaleys one of the safest locations to stay.
The whole complex is surrounded by a wall and has 24x7 on-site security staff that carry out frequent patrols, however we strongly recommend remaining aware of the risk and take sensible measures to avoid an incident.
Don’t leave cash or valuables lying around the property, or in parked vehicles, please use the large safe provided to store any high value items including laptops and tablets, wallets, passports and tickets. Do not leave vehicle keys near doors and windows and lock the doors if you are not in the room, in the immediate vicinity of them.
