Waterfront holiday rentals in Oistins

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!

Miles and Karen looked after us well. There were small issues (there always are) and they dealt with them promptly and with understanding. The area and the unit are charming. Private access to the beach below is a great benefit. It is just off a road that is busy during the day. Whilst there is traffic noise we did not find that disturbing and did not interfere with our sleep. We appreciated the sizeable fridge freezer, the cooker that worked and plentiful kitchen equipment. The nearest supermarket is Jordan’s within 100 meters, mostly for basics. Holetown has a Massy’s store which is much better. Bus ride 15 minutes. Also more restaurants there to choose from. There is the Carlton store in the other direction. More choice than at Jordan’s. Again, 15 mins by bus. Off the sandy beach in the water there are rocks you find underfoot. Miles has provided rubber socks to protect your feet just in case. Within minutes is the Bikini Beach Club and that is a great asset.

The accommodation was exceptional. Stephanie is very responsive. Her place is close to the beach and comes with plenty of indoor and outdoor amenities. The area is private and quiet, but you do need a vehicle. You could easily spend your entire holiday just relaxing there, but we still went out exploring, and every time, it was a pleasure to come back at the end of the day. I apologise again for the miscommunication on our part, we just didn’t want to bother you with something that seemed minor at first. Rent this place, it’s amazing! Thank you, Stephanie!

This is an excellent place to stay on the west coast of the island, exactly as described. The view is outstanding with the beach at your doorstep. The apartment is very nice, comfortable beds, nice living room, fully equipped kitchen. Lots of recent upgrades! Easy access to the bus to get to places along the coast. Lots of nice outdoor spaces, with sofas and a table, all under a shelter. The barbecue is great to have as well and a grocery store just across the street. The beach out front is rocky so would recommend some water shoes. The hosts answered all our questions and helped us get a taxi back to the airport. You should have no hesitation to stay here!

We HIGHLY RECOMMEND anyone considering a visit to Barbados to book here. Gregory gave us clear instructions was a great communicator. A very short walk through the gate in the backyard and you are on pristine Carlisle Bay. There were beach chairs & an umbrella reserved each day for our use. We are confident swimmers and each day we snorkeled out to the 2 closest shipwrecks and swam with fish, turtles & stingrays. No need to pay the $$ local tours we’re charging. Nolan is the “beach guy” and he has masks, snorkels, fins, vests, flotation devices etc if needed. Gregory has lived in Barbados for many years and sent us useful links to many restaurants as well as trusted taxi drivers. At sunset we could have a chat & drink with Gregory in the gazebo which is perfectly positioned. The property also had a fire stick with channels from all over the world easily accessible.

We loved this tastefully decorated and restful Villa and have already booked it for next year. Chanel and her team were so helpful, proactive and caring. She even came to our rescue when our flight was cancelled and we needed to extend the stay. Pool was lovely and quiet and the people we met around Schooner Bay were very friendly. Can’t wait to come back!

Highly recommend! Jo the host is phenomenal and went above and beyond to ensure our stay went well. She was very quick to respond and provided so many great recommendations for us. We could not have asked for a better host. The area is wonderful, we were very comfortable the entire time, and we had everything you would want. Bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, living room, patio are all great! Very clean and super spacious. Jo’s extra efforts would make me feel beyond comfortable staying here again with my family or in any other listing she had. Thank you Jo!

We really enjoyed Glitter Bay. It was very peaceful and has a great beachfront. Swimming can be a bit rocky right on the property, but with access to the Fairmont Beach Club that is no problem. The service down at the bar and restaurant was friendly and accommodating. On our last night we had cocktails at the edge of the beach and watched a beautiful sunset--very memorable. The rooms have lots of space and the kitchen is serviceable. My only complaint would be that some of the finishes are not done as well as they could be (e.g., it is a tight squeeze to get into the cupboard with the safe and some of the cupboards aren't mounted that well). The location is great and you can walk into Holetown easily. It took me 3 days to realize there was a Fitness Centre, but once I did that was great. It is small but has everything I needed. Our cleaner, Margarita, was outstanding! She did an amazing job every day and was lovely to deal with. We would definitely return.

Chloe’s place was truly something special. The view couldn’t be better—right on the water! The upstairs features a large opening to the beach that makes you feel like you’re living outdoors. It does get warm during the day, but with the fans and side windows open, you can create a pleasant airflow. The spacious bedroom downstairs was comfortable and includes a cooling system that keeps things cool at night. The mattress could use an update—it’s quite soft and you can feel the springs a bit—but we still slept well. The kitchen is well-equipped with all the utensils you might need if you plan to cook. I would definitely recommend Chloe’s place if you’re looking to enjoy island life away from the main tourist areas, while still being close to attractions and having direct access to the water!

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.

Turtle Reef has been my lengthy stay in Barbados for many years. We refer to it as our home from home. The decor is totally my taste and is totally conducive to why it suits myself and my special needs daughter. John and Shirley are the perfect hosts.

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!

Fantastic house, beautiful west facing views for sunset over the sea, really close to Fish Pot restaurant with beach and pier to swim off. The house itself is even better than the photos, and the rooms are all to a high spec with aircon and lots of space. We liked being at the quieter end of the island, it's very private and quiet. David and Chris were excellent hosts, Chris was very helpful and gave us suggestions for lunch restaurants on the beaches. Would highly recommend and stay again, thank you.

We had a fabulous 2 week stay at La Canoa. With 6 of us there was plenty of space and we loved hanging out in the garden and on the veranda. We especially enjoyed the wildlife in the garden and the direct beach access. The kitchen was great, fully equipped and clean. Chris was a great host and swiftly responded to any questions we had. Having never visited Barbados before we could not have asked for more. La Cabane, the closest restaurant to La Canoa, serves the best food in a perfect location. (walking distance) We loved being by the harbour and rum distillery, there was something quite unique about this location. I would recommend hiring a car if you are staying here although we used the buses, we also explored further afield to the East and South coast Thank you Chris for providing such a wonderful place to stay in Barbados.

What an absolutely perfect holiday my family and I had. I would strongly urge whoever reads this to go ahead and book. Being located on a quiet beach with two fantastic bars on it, we had a great time. If you chose you can have three meals a day prepared for you, by a lovely lady that has worked at the property for over 25 years. If not there are many great bars and restaurants within a short drive and in some cases a short walk. There’s a security guard at night as well as a cleaner there in the day. The house it lovely, it’s got a very authentic feel about it. It could do with a little bit of TLC however the location of the property makes up for it. My only complaint would be that the Wi-Fi was unusable, so if you’re planning on working on your holiday then the beach bar next door has good internet or alternatively purchase a good mobile data plan.

Wow, just wow! Amazing views. Picture postcard views everywhere in this stunning villa. Tina and Philip were the perfect hosts met us on arrival and couldn’t have been more helpful throughout our stay. They helped arrange our groceries and also our car hire. They even dropped off bottles of drinking water when the water in the whole area went off! The Villa is simply stunning and our whole family had an amazing time here with a lovely small cove beach perfect for snorkelling. Just on the Boardwalk - so lovely to walk down along the shore to the restaurants. The Villa was so well equipped with everything you should need for your stay. The only small negatives for our family were the noisy road early mornings (we knew about and can’t avoid beach front) and lack of a smart tv for Netflix/Amazon TV etc. Would highly recommend and we had an amazing time here in Barbados!

We spent 11 great vacation days at the blue waters condo. We felt at home from the very first moment! It has enough space, is clean, well equipped, cozy garden, quietly located.... The location is also excellent, a short walk to our favorite beach, Oistins is also within walking distance. And the communication with Alicia worked great! We will definitely be back and are already looking forward to it. Many thanks Monika and Ruth

Saudia is an amazing host that is responsive, helpful, and proactive. This was the easiest check in and check our process that I have ever experienced through Airbnb. Her beautiful property was everything I could have ever imagined and more. Her recs and attention to detail only elevated the trip.

Thank you Mary for allow me to celebrate my birthday. at one love , the location The view was everything i highly recommend one love .

Thank you, Rosanne, for an incredible stay. The condo is even more beautiful in person—spacious, stylish, and fully equipped with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable holiday (and then some!). The location is perfect, making it an ideal base for exploring the island. This is a truly well-thought-out Airbnb, and I have absolutely no regrets choosing it. Thank you again for the delicious rum punch and the thoughtful birthday card—such a lovely personal touch!

This was our first time in Barbados and this property made for a great trip. We would definitely stay there again. Great location right in the middle of all the St Lawrence Gap action and restaurants, but still felt secluded and private when on property. We were greeted at the location when we arrived and given a thorough walk through of the property as well as local recommendations. If you are looking for a place to stay on the south coast look no further!

Sandy View was a beautifully furnished and well appointed condo with ample space for 3 couples. The views from the balcony across the beach were stunning. Volney was fantastic and got us some shopping in for our arrival as the supermarkets were closed early on the Sunday. She serviced the condo regularly and promptly address an issue with the hot water. The booking process was easy and Richard was really helpful before we arrived offering advice on transportation and restaurants. The beach was lovely but be sure to go to Heywood’s beach just 10 mins walk from the condo to the right. Two supermarkets close by were great. I would recommend Baia, Local&Co snd Sand Street Bistro as well as the pizzas at Orange Street Grocer. Pier One about a 1 mile walk right from the condo offers lovely sunbeds and a pool free if you eat there. I would highly recommend @Shasacatamarancruises for a private charter to snorkel and swim with turtles with your food and bar included. Really good value.

Great place to stay, would love to come back! We come to Barbados once a year to visit family. This is by far the nicest place we’ve stayed. The location is amazing. And is the perfect distance to the boardwalk. The pool is great. The Ac was great, and the staff were always responsive and polite. Located within walking distance of a lot of things to do on the south side. Can get a bit noisy from the location but only for a few hours and we slept just fine every time. (And our 6 month old)

We had a lovely and relaxing stay at Maxwell Beach Villas! Yonette was an excellent host- always prompt in answering our questions. We were welcomed with rum punch and fresh rum cake! The pictures accurately describe the layout of condo and it was extremely clean and neat upon arrival . The view of the ocean and pool really blew us away, we never got tired of sitting on the terrace and enjoying the ocean view. It is important, though, to mention that the beach directly in front of the property is much smaller than shown in the pictures. I do wish the photos were more accurate to the current state of the beach. There is a large amount of seaweed there as well. For this reason we didn’t use the beach directly on the property but luckily it’s a short drive to many gorgeous beaches which we enjoyed throughout the week. The condo is also situated near many restaurants and stores. Our children loved the pool on the property and swam every day. Overall this was a very relaxing vacation!
