This is the perfect location to be close enough to Holetown to walk to beach and restaurants … days and night very safe … much quieter on Sunset Crest, Poui Ave than being on beachfront and main beach road. A very nice residential area.

Great value for money, big apartment. Pool area, sun beds and the state of the air con unit in apartment 11 did let it down. There were also renovations going on all on my block, there should have been some comms or a reduction because of that.

Regent Apartments Holetown
Great location in a quiet residential area of Holetown. 250 metres from the beach (6 or 7 minute walk), restaurants and supermarket. Up a slight incline hill. Felt perfectly safe at any time of day. Bus stop at the bottom of the hill for easy access to the fun buses north and south. Apartment itself is fine and comfortable, but no frills. Some of the apartments on the complex look a little shabby from the outside. Nice little pool for a cool off but prob not nice enough to spend a whole day lounging around. All in all a nice enough stay but certainly no frills. Has potential to be fantastic but needs some money spent and updating.

Quite & Convenient
Only a 4 night stay as reason for the visit was to spend time with a family member who lived nearby so convenience was a priority Quietly located in a side road and also near to shops & restaurants if these were required. About 10 minutes walk to the nearest beach. Pool was a a nice feature

Cute comfortable apartment
Small reasonable sized apartments - suitable for short stays/ couples - kept relatively clean with cutlery. Wifi worked perfectly. Is about a 13-minute walk from lime grove shopping centre. Wouldnt personally walk down the road during the dark - better accessible with a car - plenty of available parking. The only thing to moan about was the water pressure - possible only limited to my room - but experienced a limited flow of hot water. Looks exactly like the photos - no complaints about overall confort

very quiet, within walking distance to shops and local transportation. Plenty of buses to explore the entire island. Nice pool but no sun umbrellas which showed in brosure. Employees were very helpful and informative about the area.The entire island was out of power when we arrived and everyone was very helpful and understanding, it wasn't their fault. It was sort of entertaining as everyone was walking around with their flashlights and white bags from the only grocery with generator power.fh

Location is great: close to beach, shops and bus stop. Swimming pool is good size and sun beds comfy. Pool towels available on request. Maid service is every other day. Apartment was basic but comfortable. The shower was disappointing: head fixed to wall and poor pressure. The gap in the pushed-together mattresses was uncomfortable. Aircon was in bedroom only and only had one setting (but was ok). No laundry facility. However I would definitely be happy to return and stay at Regent Apartments again

Decent, no frills hotel. A bit off the beaten path
There's no check- in desk, therefore, you have to coordinate a meeting time with the manager. That was a bit off putting because of my delay and the need to keep calling to keep her abreast. The room was decent but the hotel is a bit off the beaten path. The pictures is not a true representation of the actual property. The staff was quite friendly.

My 1st visit to Holetown, St. James, Barbados
I've previously vacationed on Barbados for over 10 years but, never in St. James. My visit was from Dec. 26 to Jan 9. This was a great experience. The neighbor and surrounding homes/apartments were well maintained. The Regent cottages and pool were pleasant, clean and also well maintained. The kitchen was stocked as expected (pots, dishes, silverware). I brought my own can opener, beach towels and blender. Leisure 15+ minute walk to beach, grocery store, shopping, restaurants, clubs and local transportation to any other part of the island. "Everyone", was welcoming, friendly and helpful.

Decent value for Holetown if a bit basic
The bed was the best feature of this conveniently located apartment - very large and comfortable. The facilities in the apartment need refurbishing: TV not working, shower just a tepid trickle, and someone presumably had nicked or broken most of the kitchen equipment. Pool was fine, pool towels supplied if you ask, air con worked well; safe somewhat pointless as it wasn't bolted down to anything...

Difficult place to stay, could be much better
My group rented three rooms, so we were able to experience all the problems this hotel had to offer, some of them 2 or 3 times over: - Toilets made screeching noise after flushing - 1 toilet's flush system kept breaking, requiring you to reach into the nasty tank. - Refrigerators did not keep cold. - Safes in two rooms did not function - Shower did not drain - Iron leaked water onto clothing The problem is, the location was not bad (10 minute walk to the beach or bus), and the rooms were quite spacious. It was that all of the finer details that were completely forgotten or done wrong which made this a miserable place to stay. One other challenge is that the A/C was only available in the bedroom. It wasn't really necessary there, because it was pretty cool at night. However, during the day, you might want to hang out in the living room area (which was spacious), but it was too hot there due to no A/C. Luckily, the wifi worked well.

Uphill to peaceful Caribbean
Regent Apts in Poui Ave [We come from Looe!] lends itself to communal gatherings and overall we enjoyed our stay, especially because of the friends we made there. The location is Caribbean, including the barking dogs, but it is 600m uphill from the best beach and supermarket. One day, a troupe of monkeys wandered past; no doubt on their banana walk. Without Janice to complain to, the place would fall apart. In 3 wks we went through 3 fridges and the cookers are from the Arc. Essentially the place needs a complete update except for the pool, although there is no shade provided from the sun [the parasol in the picture is a dream].
