Beach

* Fitts Village is a fishing area which extends towards the neighbouring Paynes Bay Fishing Market. It also boasts a very select group of restaurants, including Il Tempio which overlooks the Caribbean Sea. This place of fine dining is the only Italian restaurant in the district and is just one of a few Italian restaurants in all of Barbados.

The Fitts Village area contains several reefs, and with clear blue waters, it is good for snorkelling. Occasionally you may spot a turtle surfacing for a breath of air. The beaches along the west coast are excellent for swimming. This is typically a quiet beach, and it is the ideal spot to relax with a good book under the shade of a tree or enjoy the sea and sun.

Picnic benches are scattered among the Casuarina trees lining the shore, and to the north is a small, open esplanade.

GUEST BOOK.

"Thanks Irene,

We had a really wonderful time and the beach house was just what we needed ! We had a very relaxing time and found it just as you described - with everything you needed to hand.

Thank you for all your help and arrangements - I was very happy with your responses and would recommend your services".

Renee, UK - May 2011.

 

 "Irene, thank you so much for your organisation and all your information pack contents – so useful and very comprehensive - and I read it all !

'The beach house was fantastic - even better than expected ! A super place. It really lacked for nothing.

We had a wonderful holiday".

Patsi, UK - July/August 2010

 

"As soon as I arrived at Bibians I was taken aback with the lovely 'feel' of the house. Bibian's was even better than I remembered it from our stay 2 years ago. I had forgotten just how nice it is ! The beach was a lot wider and less rocky than 2 years ago which was a major advantage ! We really felt as if we had our own private beach. It was just perfect !! There were just a few people passing by and looking and envying Bibians.


We made several visits to different beaches but I was always eager to get back to our little haven at Bibians.


Unfortunately, we have had to book elsewhere for Xmas and New Year and would have loved for us all to be staying at Bibians and Fidji, but they are already booked.


The locals on Fitts Village beach are so friendly and we did not get hassled to buy things as on so many of the other beaches. Perhaps because we made good friends with them !


We will definitely be booking to stay at Bibians again !"

Lesley & Tony, UK - April/May 2010.

 

""The house was great and had everything we needed for the week we were there. We were very comfortable and relaxed. Everything went very smoothly. Our time away was wonderful, ,just wish we could have stayed longer !"

Penny, USA - March 2010.

 

Bibians Beach House ...the most relaxing vacation ever.

We were met by the owners and they were very helpful and just a ‘phone call away for any questions.


Taxi service is easily available and we used the bus service...it was great fun !


It was a great place we shared with my brother and sister-in-law. The cleanest and most homey feeling place I have been. Really it felt like home the first day we arrived. Enough room and privacy for the four of us.


Close to the Supermarket Jordans, where you can buy everything you need & to the fish market for daily fresh fish.


We cooked daily and ventured out for dinners a few times during the week. You must bus or cab to a restaurant...but everything is so close and there is so much to choose from.


We travelled on the bus as much as possible to experience daily living. The bus stop is right there. It is affordable and safe. We met a lot of helpful and entertaining people along the way !


I loved this location as it was very private, quiet and restful. The sound of the ocean was amazing.

Jayne & Matt - Ontario, Canada. January 2010.

 

What a great cottage ! We loved sitting on the porch looking at the perfect crystal turquoise ocean. We swam 3 times a day because it was right in front of us !

The cottage was comfortable, Denise and Rudy were very helpful. We are ‘foodies’ and the kitchen was very well equipped for cooking meals, even grilling fish on the barbeque !  

We would definitely return to Bibians Beach House if we are in Barbados.

California, USA. March 2010

 

"The accommodation and facilities matched our expectations.

Having you arrange a pick-up from the airport was well worth it.

If everything works out for us again we would go back next year".

John - USA. January 2010.

 

"Thanks, Irene, you're a gem...

The cottage was perfect in every detail.  It is more than a 'rental'.  A woman's touch is evident.  The setting is wonderful.  Your write-up was very thorough.  Often vacation rentals show only a photo or two, leaving much to the hopeful imagination, while the reality is often a let down.  Not so with your promotion.

The owner was most gracious and accommodating, seemingly always available and responsive.  His car rental was inexpensive and served us perfectly.  Why go to anyone else when he gives doorstep service?

We loved the location, too.  Quiet, and island center to give good reach to north or south destinations.  There's WAY more to Barbados than we had anticipated.  First-time visitors should expect to find much more than the physical size of the island suggests.  This is not a sleepy dot of land in the Windwards. 

Local calls were free and we were able to pick up internet from the cottage.  Maybe it's a seasonal thing, but I didn't experience any bugs.  My partner seems to attract them and so lit a coil or two, but I'd rate it as a non-issue.  Many Caribbean beaches are infested with no-see-ums, a real problem.  None of that here".

Barry, USA - May 2009.
 

"Hi Irene,

We all had the most wonderful time at Bibians and Fidji Beach Houses.  It was all absolutely perfect.

We made full use of the lovely veranda overlooking the beach at Bibians, cooking local fish on the BBQ every night bought from the local fish market.

We had monkeys visiting us every day and had a turtle come right in - swimming up to the beach in front of us.

My granddaughter helped the local fisherman rescue their sprats from the nets right on the beach.

The houses were traditional and cosy and Rudy was on call if needed".

Lesley, Tony & family, UK - April 2008.

 

"We think Bibians Beach House was fantastic and we will return, It was a very, very nice place".

John & Anne, UK - March 2008.

 

"An excellent holiday. We will recommend Bajan Retreats & Bibian’s to any friends considering a trip to Barbados. Thanks Irene & thanks Rudy.The BBQ Rudy provided was used daily – Great !"

Glyn & family, UK - May 2007.
