For what you pay, this is a very good base to stay in Barbados. The area is perfect, good breaches with a selection of good restaurant and bars, Black Beards for one. Although the apartment are basic, the beds are very comfy and clean with good facilities, such as: Microwave, taoster, cooker, kettle, iron and ironing board, if some of... More

on arrival accommodation not ready, the staff stated incorrect numbers from virgin seven of us (6 adults,1 child) we were then left, no offer of drinks for inconvenience, just left with luggage which we had carried up several steps to reception. The apartments given were located in halcyon palm a way from main reception, we had to ask for help... More

we travelled the 8th of september 2011 with virgin holidays. the price we paid would not even cover our flight much less a one bedroomed appartment in a lovely residential part of barbados. i travel quite a bit to the carribean and am well aware that you must not expect european standards when it comes to accommodation. the staff always...

This was self-catering accommodation . It had everything you needed, supermarket and restaurants nearby. Was cleaned every day with fresh linen and towels every second day. Accomodation was comfortable and it was a great base for travelling around the island. Very quiet neighbourhood and no crowds by the pool. Tremendous value. I would go back. More

Barbados has always had the reputation for being for the rich and famous, not so, thanks to Virgin Atlantic. This is the second time we have been, and manage to get great deals. The first time we stayed in the Halcyon, we found the apartments large but rather dated, I suppose the price we paid we could not complain, it... More

Friendly staff in an isolated location, 'tatty' out of date furnishings and decor. How can Virgin fly their customers here? Having said that, without the offer of a low price (albeit at the end of Hurricane(wet) season) our family wouldn’t have been able to experience all the other brilliant things about Barbados. The people, the food the music the 'reggae'... More
