Beachfront vacation rentals in Gibbes Beach

My partner and I stayed for a week in Jess’s apartment, whilst I surfed and remote worked from the UK and close to my partners home in Oistins. Jess’s cosy apartment was just what we were looking for, private, quiet, comfortable and with lots of outside living space. The breeze blows through all the open shutters making it nice and cool and we enjoyed dinners in the garden and afternoon naps in the hammock. The apartment is a 5 minute walk from Freights Bay to surf and 20 minute walk to Miami Beach and Oistins for the shops and places to eat. Jess was the highlight of the trip giving us loads of great recommendations and an all round great host and person. We will definitely be keeping in touch and saying again!

As a first time traveller to Barbados, Tonia was the best host and made our stay memorable. She was quick to help out with our needs and also suggest the best spots to visit. Thanks Tonia!

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.

My husband and I fell in love about 8 years ago with Barbados and this was our 8th visit to Barbados. We booked this villa about 3 days prior to our arrival, and were impressed with the quick communication and very easy self check in. The villa is beautiful, nice and white and bright. The beds were very comfortable and it was spotless. Plenty of beach towels and bath towels! It was lovely sitting on the deck watching the surfers, we felt safe and happy in the Freights Bay Area with a quick walk to Miami Beach, the location of this villa was convenient and within walking distance to the fish market and Masseys grocery store! A lovely villa in deed and another wonderful vacation in Barbados.

Salty toes is unbelievable!, and it's a must visit! From the cleanliness of the house itself to the sandy beach coming right up to the outdoor seating area, simply amazing! It's one of those places that's quiet and off the main street but it has everything on its doorstep! lovely bars, restaurants, food courts, lovely boardwalks etc it has it all.. the house was spotless, fully stocked with everything you could imagine. Big cooker, big fridge freezer/ washing/ dryer facilities. Salty toes has ample space for families. Two big seating areas inside for eating at, and then the outdoor area just has to be seen! Amazing! All 3 bedrooms were huge, crisp clean linen and all beds with memory foam mattresses! We'll definitely be back to Salty Toes, home away from home. I'd be giving this place 20/10! Top Class Chloe, keep up the good work!

Great place overall! The unit itself is roomy, recent and clean. The location couldn’t be better; on The Gap, but not right in the bars section so it was quiet at night but you just had to walk 5 minutes to get to the action. Great host and his co-hosts were great as well. My wife and I really enjoyed our time and will be looking to come back with our daughters!

Thank you Leslee Ann for welcoming us into your home and for your great communication throughout. We really enjoyed our stay and very much appreciate you accommodating our evening flight with a late check out.

Zeema and Paul have been extremely nice, welcoming and helpful. They gave us so many recomendations and tips to help us have the best few days of holiday. They had a last minute cancellation in one of the better studios and they upgraded our room free of charge. Great hosts, would definetely recommend and would come back!

We had an incredible experience at the Sapphire Beach Condo in Barbados! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a lovely welcome basket with a bottle of rum punch and local snacks. We were also greeted by a beautiful ocean view. The condo had everything we could possibly need. It was stocked better than most homes! There were so many thoughtful touches, like a fully stocked laundry room, good quality hair dryer, Bluetooth speaker and Alexa. We rented a car from across the street which was very convenience but if you need a taxis we recommend Anderson who is across from the property. We used him to go to the airport. My son realized he left his expensive camera in the car rental. We called Anderson and he retrieved the camera for us. That kind of kindness and reliability is rare. We were beyond grateful. All in all, this was a great vacation rental. The attention to detail, hospitality, and thoughtful extras made our trip unforgetable. We highly recommend Sapphire Beach Condo.

Just one word… WOW!! Have stayed in Barbados many times and Shawn’s place surpassed anything we have ever stayed in before. The location was just outside Holetown buses run frequently a short walk away but we always hire a car for convenience. There are a couple of beach bars a short walk way including Juju’s and Jumas restaurant and the Lone Star are both within an easy walk. There villa itself was spacious and had absolutely everything you need for a wonderful home from home holiday. It also had a fantastic small gym that was used almost everyday. Big shout out to Jennifer who is meticulous in her cleaning and kept the villa spotlessly clean. We had a wonderful stay and cannot wait to return. If you are looking for a spacious villa on the beautiful West coast of Barbados within east reach of all amenities then this place is for you. Would 100% recommend to anybody - if you book here you will not be disappointed.

This listing was great. Perfectly located near to restaurants and groceries. An ideal central location in my opinion and we felt safe as the compound is gated. Our luggage was lost but the list had a wash/dryer with detergent so we could keep our clothes clean until our luggage was returned to us. An overall great stay and I would recommend.

Our stay at Zinnia was great. Spent alot of time at Paynes beach which we loved. Katrina’s condo matches description and most affordable. Lovely little pool and sitting area. Bikini beach had good food , nice little beach and really nice vibe.

Absolutely perfect, could not wish for any better. Wonderful apartment, even better than expected. Location through the gate on to the most perfect beach and easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. Very spacious for 2 people. Nicely decorated and the patio and garden was lovely. Pat who we picked the key up from was very lovely and so helpful. We have just had a wonderful time and would love to come back. It was perfect for us and nothing I would want to change - I just hope there is availability when we want to come back!

We had not stayed at Glitter Bay since our children were young 25 years ago. It felt wonderful to be back. The resort is so beautiful, green and spacious with a wonderful beach furnished with very comfortable sun beds, well spaced, 2 towels each and your own designated ones for the whole holiday. (None of that running to save a sunbed in the mornings!) The apartment was spotlessly clean and every morning 6 days a week the lovely Coral came in to clean and make the bed. It felt as though we were in a hotel. The fridge was surprisingly stocked with eggs, milk, butter, bread, jam, tea bags, cokes and beer. We had a super view of the blue Caribbean sea and amazing sunsets from our balcony or the super little beach cafe. We cant wait to return!

Stunning apartment, with ocean views from every room. Amazing layout for 2 couples, with basically 2 suites. Unbeatable st Lawrence gap location and lovely host. Plus a little pool, just as cool as you didn't know you needed! Many thanks for have us. It was wonderful, a dream vacation.

Very responsive host. Great location. We especially enjoyed the close proximity to the nearby beach. Having our designated beach chairs for the week was a bonus. Facilities were clean and well kept. We had lunch one afternoon at the pool. Good food and service. Brian's unit was very comfortable and furnished well. We received notice from our airlines that bad weather might impinge on our return flight. Brian was gracious enough to offer us an additional night's stay if we had trouble. Should we return to Barbados in the future, I would have no problem staying at Brian's condo again.

Beautiful place in a gorgeous location! The host is responsive and welcoming, and provides very helpful information on the location and complex that’s readily available inside the unit. The place is extremely clean with all the things that one might need during your stay, including dishes, towels, pots/pans, etc.; all of these things are a good quality and a great condition. I highly recommend this place and Lisa as a host!

I truly had a s remarkable stay at Dana's place. The condo is perfectly equipped and has a private beach access. Indeed the apartment is better than it looks at the photos. Dana was super flexible and kind and provided helpful recommendations. Five stars - thank you Dana!

We could mot imagine any bettee location..directly on the beach..amazing terraxe on the top appartmen. we felt like home on our full week of stay. further we got free beds and umbrella on the beach every day. A full during stay cleaning with a glance. Gregory was always reachabble..around with lot of recomonantions and any help we required. We hope to stay again in this wondeeful place.

We loved our stay at White Sands. The apartment was very clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated. The location was perfect for us, not too touristy, with a beautiful quiet beach just across the road. Amazing sunsets! It's a great base for exploring the rest of the island. There are so many good food spots within a 5 min walk... * Caboose - best fish cutters * Baia - expensive but incredible views and good food * Fishermans - very reasonable local cuisine, canteen style * Orange Street Grocer - great for breakfast * PRC Bakery And a short drive away is The Fish Pot which is incredible. We will 100% be staying again when we visit Barbados in the future.

Our stay was great. The pictures really don’t capture true beauty that’s before your eyes! the perfect spot to relax and unwind! We’ll be back for sure!

This place was sooo peaceful and relaxing. The beaches are white sand and so blue. It is a public beach but I definitely felt like I had a 2km beach all to myself. The neighbors and neighborhood are full of friendly folks. Many restaurants and activities are within a short drive. The place itself is very clean with a terrific kitchen and kitchen peninsula. Nice patio for drinking coffee in the morning, having drinks in the afternoon and enjoying the sunset in the evening. I highly recommend this spot. Kimberly is very responsive, friendly and helpful. I was looking for a paddle board to rent and she was able to find one for me (delivered) on short notice.

Eldawna is a very responsive host, the environment and apartment is squeaky clean. Overall, it was great place to live in.

Art studio is conveniently located so close to the beach. Beautiful gardens. Well looked after, cleaned and linen changed every couple if days, this wasn't expected. Every thing you need is there even beach chairs, books and games.
