Barbados is the most easterly island in the Caribbean and populated by about 280,000 people. The island is formed by limestone rocks and measures about 430 square kilometers. Barbados is just north of the equator and far away enough from the hurricane belt that it usually gets spared from them. While less known than other Caribbean destinations, Barbados might be worth a visit. In this post, we share some hotel recommendations to help you plan your trip based on some of the places we have stayed and have researched.

Ever read TripAdvisor reviews trying to find the best hotel for your preferences and question how reliable they are? Yes, hotels play games to manipulate their TripAdvisor score and it can be deceiving. We once posted a negative review about a hotel and the GM called us and threatened/bribed us to take it down. 😢

Fakespot can help with this. All you need to do is paste the URL where the reviews are and AI will analyze them and provide you a summary and even highlight some of the more authentic reviews.
