Holetown

Holetown is a great base for exploring the west coast. Nice beaches, nearby restaurants and supermarket, and everything’s walkable. Plus the bus runs up and down the main road. We spent 10 days here.

St Lawrence Gap is a compact collection of hotels, restaurants, and bars near beautiful beaches on the south coast of Barbados. We loved our 10 days there.
