quick stay in Barbados

Harriet was waiting at the airport which was lovely which we had arranged before hand and I kept in contact about flight delay. She took us to there apartment and showed us around which was great . We had a lovely time just for 1 night as we were off to St Vincent the next day. We have been to Barbados before and will go again at some point so will definitely stay here next time .

The accommodations were perfect for me. Very clean. A nice TV. Large shower. Extremely helpful host. The pictures do not do the suite justice. I recommend taxis versus public transportation. No coffee pot - but instant coffee was arranged in a lovely box. My stay was wonderful!

My stay at Jem Gems was excellent. The host picked me up at the airport and was there on time. She was very friendly and polite. The room was very clean and spacious. I was very grateful for the refreshments she provided. The bed was very comfortable and I had a good night's sleep. I would highly recommend Jem Gems. On a scale from 1 to 10, I give it a 10!
