Customer Reviews

Hi Yvonne and Julie,
Now that we have had a moment to catch our breath, I just wanted to email and say how fabulous Gingerbread is!!!!! We love it and don’t want to ever leave. My daughter said that if they had the Australian animals in Barbados then it would be perfect and she would move here. Such a wonderful place to come after our polar vortex winter.
I have to say that you were right Yvonne- I am already wondering how I ever had three kids without a cook and maid…Cheryl and Jessica are lovely. We had her prepare lunch and dinner today and leave them for us and I came back to folded washing that hadn’t been folded by me….that’s a holiday on its own!
Thanks again for all of your help and advice. The kids are snorkelling away happily but the pools are their favorite I think. Especially the after dinner swim with the pool lit up, best thing ever according to my little one Charlie.
We met Anne Marie today and she was very helpful and lots of fun to talk to. You always worry a little when you book somewhere but this has been our best family holiday so far ( and we are only 36 hours in…)
Thanks again!

Hi Yvonne and Julie, We are back home and we wanted to thank you for the organization of this wonderful stay in Barbados. it was just….unforgettable!!! The villa was beautiful, the staff was perfect of kindness and efficiency and the meals were absolutely fabulous, even if we are accustomed to eat spiced meals in Guadeloupe. We met a lot of nice people and we are already planning our next stay for 2018 !! Thanks a lot again. Kind regards, The Milleret
