GUEST BOOK.
Hi Irene
I just wanted to let you know that we're back after an absolutely
fantastic holiday.
Rudy, the car hire chap was a
lovely guy and very helpful. We would definitely highly recommend his
company & see why you use them when you're out there!
We spent much of the holiday exploring the island & the many beaches...
and enjoying the amazing restaurants most evenings - although we did
manage to have a barbeque at home on one evening. We also squeezed in
a visit to Sunbury Plantation House, a wildlife park, the Barbados
museum
and the Mount Gay Rum Tour... and also tagged a quick trip round the
Concorde Experience in before flying home on Wednesday evening! There
was so much to do on the island, so I can definitely see that we'll need
to go back.....
So thank you again for your last
minute help in organising our wonderful
holiday.
Hope you're well & hope to be booking with you again in another couple
of years - I already have a couple of friends interested in your website
ready for when they plan their next Caribbean trips in the future... and
will continue to tell everyone what a great holiday we had and how
helpful you were!
Take care.
Jen & Gavin - Leeds, UK.
"Irene, in our dealings with you we have
always felt that you were primarily interested in our holiday and not
just an agent at the other end of the line, hopefully, we'll be able to
do this all over again.
Thank you"
Tony & Barbara - Ontario, Canada.

"Your web site was very
helpful and informative.
There were lots of great
pictures
which made it nicer to
choose the place we wanted to stay.
It answered all of our
questions.
We feel that
you Irene are truly amazing and helpful.
The organized
manner in which you handled the booking and provided
the information
so promptly made our vacation easy and enjoyable.
It was a hassle
free holiday.
You provided us with
everything we
needed to have a wonderful
and relaxing holiday.
Thank you so much Irene for
everything. We will definitely highly
recommend your services.
Thank you once again!"
Diana
and Chris - Ontario, Canada.

"Hello Irene,
This is just to let
you know we had an absolutely fantastic time, it was paradise ! The
information and service you provided was first class and I would
fully recommend future holidaymakers to book their Caribbean holiday
through Bajan Retreats. Your information pack enabled us to make the
most of our time on the island, we didn't have to waste time looking
for hire car companies, knowing which 'Boat Trip' to book,
or where to find the nearest shop etc etc, your pack contained it
all.
To summarise, we
loved (in no particular order):
Chinese Food at
the Golden View Restaurant
(Everything
about Barbados really)!
(We didn't want to come home) !!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks again and we will probably be in
touch soon.
Take care and best wishes",

" Your web site is good
and it gives all the information we require.
The information provided
prior to our holiday was some of the most informative we have ever had".
Graham & Isobel -
Scotland, UK.
.........................................................
"I looked at dozens of
websites, and at dozens of potential rentals, but your site was the
best. You really cant have enough pictures. Along with all the
photos, your descriptions and maps made it easy for us to imagine where
wed be, how close to the beach we might be, etc."
Steve New
York, USA.
......................................................................
"The
information
and customer service, response time to our questions
and concerns has been second to none. This
is the first time we have
booked a major holiday via the Internet
and Mrs. Ford could not have
made it easier".
Arthur & Pauline - Derbyshire, UK.
..............................................................................
"All of the information that you supplied
before our holiday was
perfectly presented and simple to follow. The
details of car rental,
shops, taxis and restaurants was accurate and
easy to find.
Thank you foryour help. We look forward to returning with
our
family in October".
Alan & Debbie - Bucks, UK.

"Very
good web site
I was
exceptionally pleased to speak to a live person on the phone !"
Kath &
Gerry - West Sussex, UK.
.........................................................................
Thank you for my info. pack which I
received today. I must say that I was very impressed and
have never seen such a comprehensive guide to staying in
Barbados. This will be my 13th visit to the island but had
it been my 1st this would have been invaluable. Virgin
Holidays could take a leaf out of your book!"
Lesley - Surrey, UK.
........................................................................
"Hello Irene,
I
have received your pack in the post - very informative and
packed full of useful information. I have been very impressed
with your service and attention to detail and will recommend you

"Hi
Irene,
I want to let you
know what a wonderful time we had. The villa was beautiful and
we felt so privileged to be there - an ideal spot for us, nice
and quiet but close to all of the facilities in Sunset Crest. I
am so glad we pushed the boat out and went for the villa with
the pool, that just made it for us luxury !
The children went
out one morning with Bill in his boat and that was their
highlight. They loved every minute, learnt some interesting
facts and even brought home 'catch of the day' (including a
snapper) and then cooked it themselves with Bills recipe for us
in the evening !!
They all loved the
snorkelling and went swimming with the turtles which were just
out from the beach at Paynes Bay - and I even did that too with
a snorkel on my last morning. Then I swam back on my own
feeling very pleased with myself, to find that when I was half
way back that a very, very large turtle had followed me and came
up for air right next to me !! The boys loved body surfing at
Crane beach and I enjoyed watching them !
That just leaves me to say a huge thank you for facilitating
such a wonderful holiday for us and I hope we can do it again
some time ."
Very warm wishes.
Wendy
and family - East Yorkshire, UK.

.......................................................................
"Dear
Irene,
Many
thanks for all your help in the arrangements which ensured a relaxing
and trouble free holiday at Porters Court. We did indeed have a great
time. It was one of our best holidays for a long time. Lounging by the
pool, casual strolls to the beach, often at 6 in the morning, cocktails
on demand any time of the day & good food !! We found an excellent
beach cafe called Ju Ju's, by the local beach i.e. across the main road,
through the gap opposite the small church and it is immediately to the
right by the diving stall and just before the Lone Star restaurant.
Freshly cooked food, very good and very cheap.
Unfortunately
one week was not enough. We
will be in touch again for next year !!"
Clive
& family - Middlesex, UK.

"We
found your web site very accommodating. Everything we could have wished to
know was on there. Very thorough. All the information that you provided
before our holiday went above and beyond what we'd expected. Thank you
!"

............................................................................
"Irene,
We had a
lovely holiday - our best visit to date and that was helped by the excellent service and
back up you provided. We will be definitely using your services from now
on, when we wish to visit the island.
We have recommended
you to friends and relatives".

accommodation was great and the position ideal. I can only say 'Thank you'
for all your help and info. It made a big difference to our Bajan
Retreat ! Thank you so much.

further could be done the whole experience was excellent.

.........................................................................................................
"Thanks
again for all your assistance, it's such a pleasure as you make things so
simple. A fantastic service and I'll be recommending the website to
my friends and family - it's so much easier than other sites who say they
offer the same service, but don't really match your friendly and efficient
service".
Kevin
- Cardiff, UK (2nd visit)

We
had a wonderful time in Barbados. Thank you again.
Nora,
Luc and Samantha Quebec, Canada.
Dear
Irene,
Deren and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit to beautiful Barbados! It was an
excellent setting for our family vacation and we hope to return some day.
Your web site was extremely informative and user-friendly. What recommends
you the most is that you deliver what you offer, I found you extremely
helpful, detail oriented (very important in the hospitality business!),
and simply a pleasure to deal with. I believe I referred more often to the
helpful information packet you sent than to my travel book, you really
have thought of everything!
Booking
on line can be a risky endeavor but Bajan Retreats proves that there are
ethical business owners out in cyber space who have a good solid
product/service and provide it to the client's satisfaction.
Thank
you Irene, for facilitating a holiday my son and I will remember fondly
for the rest of our lives.
Very Truly Yours,
Naomi Boston, USA.
Irene,
your briefing pack was very thorough and informative I would have no
hesitation in recommending your services to anyone seeking holiday
accommodation in Barbados you know your stuff !
Best
regards,
Anne
Surrey, UK.
I
thought that your web site was very informative and provided a lot of
info. and photos which were helpful.
I
thought your information pack was excellent and we used your
recommendations for beaches and restaurants. Had a fabulous meal in
The Tides where Gary ended up proposing to me (we had bought a
ring in Bridgetown a couple of days earlier !) - so it was very
exciting.
I
found your organisation and details excellent, so thank you for
everything.
Sophie
Surrey, UK.
We
couldnt fault this holiday it was absolutely wonderful. Our two
grown-up kids (17 and 21) enjoyed it even with Mum and Dad since
they went off to do their own thing. My son did a PADI crash-course in
diving, which he loved.
We
will return in the future via you !!
Many
thanks again.
Hatti
Southend on Sea, UK.
Irene,
I found your web site very helpful and that was one of the primary
reasons why we booked through it. Your prompt response to enquiries
was very reassuring.
John
New Hampshire, USA.
"I
really like the web site. Plenty of nice pictures and information
about each property. Also, no annoying 'pop-ups' or links to irrelevant
sites!
Thanks
for a relaxing
and much needed holiday".
Christine
- Worthing, UK.
Thank
you for everything you did on our behalf.
I
want you to know that it was bliss to wake up in the morning, open the
patio doors and be greeted by the warm breath of heaven. And in the
evening, feel honoured to watch the fire of the day relax into the
embers of night right in front of our sun-kissed noses ! The
picture was simply out of this world.
Dee
Chelmsford, UK.
Irene
you were fantastic ! We will be telling all our friends about you
and hope to return to Barbados again. I only wish we had known you
when organising our wedding in 2003 and had lots of friends travelling
with us.
Thank
you - we had a great time!
Sara Hastings, UK.
Very
comprehensive and useful information. Very helpful to have groceries
bought for our arrival, plus taxi pick up.
Thank
you for your help well be happy to recommend you to our
friends.
Alison
Surrey, UK.
I was impressed with your web site, there was good use of
photographs and clear information about the properties. I dont
think that it can be easily improved.
Chris
Manchester, UK.
Your
web site is very user-friendly. You couldnt have been more helpful.
Thank you for everything. We had a superb time and will definitely
recommend you to friends.
Jo
Essex, UK.
You
gave an excellent view of the accommodation & information about the island
- and all the extras were perfect.
Ron Stafford, UK.
We
had a great time and would certainly go back again. Your service was
also excellent, especially your personal touch we will certainly
use you again, and recommend you to friends and family. Thank you very
much for providing us with a terrific holiday.
Yours
sincerely,
Philip

I think that the service and information
you gave was first class thanks for everything.
Brian
Tamworth, UK.
Irene, we had a
very enjoyable holiday in Barbados. We left wishing we had more time
there - a good sign. Thank you for your assistance. We appreciated the
suggestions and tips you gave us and we used them.
Anne
Missouri, USA.
"Dear
Irene
Have
just finished the questionnaire you sent through. But I wanted
to write as well to say that we really have been amazed at the service
you have provided throughout the whole process. You are an
advert for internet holiday booking! Our holiday was superb, the
accommodation was fantastic and because it was so quiet, we felt like
the pool was our own private facility!
Our
holiday was made extra special by the fact that we found out that we
are expecting our first child! So Barbados will always have a
special place in our hearts. We are very confident that we will
return and we won't hesitate to contact you in that instance.
Thanks
again for everything".
Clare
and Simon - Nottingham, UK.
