Booby Duck cottage was our first rental vacation we have ever made, and Trevor could not have made it any easier and more enjoyable for us. Very useful information provided with local contacts for taxis etc, and also a phone to use. Beautifully furnished and so close to the st Lawrence gap, it was simply the best holiday we could have asked for. Our host was amazingly helpful especially when we needed to find medicine for a bad cold one of us had got. It's an ideal location to see Barbados without feeling too much like a tourist. Everyone, literally everyone, is friendly and polite, you feel safe and welcome everywhere. The transport links from Booby Duck are great, as long as you're not shy getting onboard on the ZR buses! We miss Barbados a lot already and would happily recommend this to friends and family. In fact I insist you come and come to Booby Duck. We are looking forward to renting again when we next come. Thank you Trevor thank you booby duck cottage and thank you Barbados!

This was my boyfriend & I first vacation together and we couldn't have chosen a better place or a better owner to rent from. Trevor was very patient with me throughout the whole process from the first time I booked the rental to end very end. Trevor met us at the airport, gave us a quick tour through the St. Lawrence Gap area along with a few recommendations, and provided us with a cellphone to make local calls. Unfortunately, were not able to meet his wife as they were on vacation themselves on another part of the island but we were greeted with Maria's Rum Punch....AWESOME!!!! The Booby Duck looks exactly like the pictures posted....cute & quaint. There is a public bus stop a few steps away. The unit was equipped with everything to meet your needs: pots/pans, utensils, tabletop gas grill, clean towels/washcloths, beach towels & beach bag in the wardrobe, basic seasonings, mop/broom/buck, stove, microwave, refrigerator, etc. The wrap around balcony is awesome. I could definitely ass more but I'm running out of characters....LOL! We will definitely return. Thanks again Trevor! ~L'Oreal & Brandon

Best rental stay we have made. Trevor was gracious enough to pick us up on Saturday night and give us a quick tour so we could get our bearings. Maria`s rum punch was poured as soon as our bags were dropped and then we went straight to the gap , a short 2-3 minute walk. Excellent location close to the bars and restaurants of the Gap with easy Bus route access for getting around the island. The use of a local cell phone and landline while on the island was an excellent bonus.Wireless also good for internet to check out and make reservations for excursions restaurants etc etc. Trevor was there on Sunday to see us off. Although on the main road and close to the Gap we slept with no problems.Probably the rum punch along with the hum of the AC and fans kept us in dream land. Would reccommend this apartment to anyone for location and Trevor and Maria`s great hospitality. I hope the Brazil airline keeps the service running so we can return again soon.

We had a wonderful holiday with wonderful accommodation! The Booby Duck has everything you need for a great vacation. It is located in a great area, whether you are walking or want to take a bus. (There is even parking if you rent a car.) The choice of cooking in the apartment or having so many great places to eat within a very short walking distance was fantastic. The comfort of opening up the windows and doors and feeling the Caribbean breezes meant so much. Sitting out on the nice balcony, watching sunrises and sunsets was beautiful. It was fun seeing the odd blue heron and other birds fly by. The roosters were entertaining, making us laugh at their chatter. Making us look forward to our dream of having our own roosters and chickens one day. Thank you Maria and Trevor, your hospitality was very much appreciated. Thank you for the yummy rum punch! We look forward to seeing you again, soon~ Stephen and Kathryn

Wow, can't describe it any other way than a spectacular month on the Island. The Booby Duck was just as advertised and lived up to every excellent review preceding this one. A touch of class was finding a bottle of Maria’s wonderful rum punch in the fridge at time of arrival and after a long flight, it turned out to be just what the doctor ordered. After that, the Rum Punch Fairy showed up numerous times to replenish our ever depleting stock and there is no question, it’s the best on the Island. The location of the Booby Duck is great, a short stroll to the Gap, and a nice morning walk to Accra and the Boardwalk (we like long walks). The Island just continually serves up one great day after another. Believe me, you will never rent a vacation property belonging to nicer and more helpful people than Trevor and Maria… Thanks a bunch T/M, hope to see you again!

WOW this was a great one bed apartment had everything you need for a fantastic holliday even a bottle of Marias Rum Punch in the fridge waiting for us.Hosts Trevor and Maria have made this apartment home from home with beaches just a short walk 2 min down the road also the gap just round the corner with great places to eat and bus stop also near by Booby DUCK has everything you need for a great holliday even roosters across the road to remind you its morning.See you again Guys thanks for lovely holliday.

We had such a lovely stay and Trevor, our host, could not have been more helpful. He was responsive to all out thousand questions and provided a cell phone for our use on the island. He cheerfully offerred to drive us around the island, but we were so relaxed and content just to lie on the beach, that we declined. Another reason to come back in the future! His wife provided us with the most delicious Rum punch, and although we do not usually drink, we ordered another bottle before we left. Booby Duck cottage was absolutely perfect. Our home away from home. It was clean and stocked with everything we could need, including beach towels and a clothes line for drying wet swim wear! It was right on the bus route and we were able to travel all over the island for $1 per person. We loved the porch where we enjoyed lovely sunlit breakfasts, and listened to the neighborhood cocks crowing (not audible inside the cottage). Thank you Trevor and Ryan for the trip back to the airport and the use of your lovely cottage. Next time we will plan to stay for 2 weeks as the time went waaaay too quickly!

My husband and I stayed 16 days at the Booby Duck and it became our home away from home. The location is perfect for getting around southern Barbados. Walking distance to beaches, restaraunts, bars, markets, and banks. A 7 min. cab ride to Oistins for some of the best food on the island. The sunsets are beautiful, the people are wonderful, and Maria's Rum Punch is the best rum punch we had our whole stay. The booby duck is such a cute little cottage, with lots of character.

I can't say enough about our stay in Barbados, it was absolutely amazing. Having a couple of the top beaches in the world just a few blocks away is heaven -- white sand and turquoise water in every direction. What really made our stay beyond everything we hoped for was our experience with Trevor and staying at Booby Duck. The accommodations at this condo are top-notch, everything you could ever need plus more, not to mention how well designed and decorated it was - much nicer than ANY hotel we've been to for vacation before. Just this alone would be more than enough for us to recommend to any one of our family or friends, however it gets better, the owner Trevor took as good care of us as he would his own family. He picked us up from the airport, showed us around the area to help us acclimate with our surroundings, gave us suggestions on where/what to do, had a cell phone for us to use, free Internet at the condo, Rum Punch waiting in the fridge, on and on. You name it, he had it for us. I really can't explain in words how great this place is and dealing with Trevor was, it's so far beyond anything we expected. Needless to say, it's all we've been talking about since getting home. There is a zero percent chance that when we go back we wouldn't be staying there again. The only thing I worry about is too many people are going to find out about this amazing setup and it will be booked so far out that there won't be an opening for us! I'm also confident in saying that if someone were to be on the fence about what island to visit, knowing about this place alone would be worth booking Barbados for. It really is a no-brainer.

Thanks so much to Trevor and Maria who maintain this impeccable vacation rental! Our stay in Barbados was lovely, filled with fun and relaxation. As an ideal ambassador to Barbados, Trevor consistently went above and beyond simply being a gracious host. We truly felt as though we were his personal guests and it certainly made our stay that much more enjoyable. The island is a spectacular place to visit and St. Lawrence Gap is a great place to enjoy a wide variety of cuisine and non-stop nightlife. The Booby Duck is right on a bus route, so getting around town is easy and convenient. Overall, we were thrilled with our Barbados experience and are truly grateful to Trevor and Maria for their hospitality and kindness!

My husband and I just returned from our 2 week stay at Booby Duck. We enjoyed our very cozy "home away from home" immensely. Trevor epitomizes the Bajan hospitality the island exudes. We loved sitting on the deck having breakfast with a breadfruit tree and monkeys as a backdrop. We were able to walk to the beaches, grocery store, rum shops, and restaurants easily. We took public transport to neighboring towns when walking was too far. We always felt safe. Trevor greeted us at the airport, gave us a tour, provided a cell phone, sent tips via email of island happenings, and checked in with us to be sure we were enjoying life. Trevor thank you for a most relaxing and fun vacation. We hated to leave and hope to return.

My husband and I chose Booby Duck for our second trip to the island and it was absolutely perfect. The pictures are accurate - a quaint and well maintained cottage. The roosters gave us grief the first night but once the air conditioning was on we slept like babies :) Make sure to stock up on Maria's rum punch -it's worth it!! This was a wonderful getaway for us and we would highly recommend it! The cell phone was a great perk and we always felt safe in the cottage.

We highly recommend the Booby Duck. It was perfect for two and had everything we needed for our week there. It was very close (just a short walk) to the restaurants and bars in the Gap and good beaches. Trevor and Maria were so welcoming and helpful, and even provided a cell phone in case we needed to ask them questions or call for a taxi. Fantastic location, fantastic owners! Thanks for going above and beyond, Trevor and Maria! We hope to see you again in a couple of years.
