Barbados Insider Tips

Lois,

Where do you suggest staying for the cricket in Barbados during that time frame? Is there like a villa or something to rent out?

Hari

You should definitely try to book something immediately.

For a villa, contact Paul at Island Hideaways - www.islandhideaways.com (the site)--gives phone info. Tell him Lois Swanson suggested you contact him.

You can contact individual hotels -- check them out on www.barbados.org

Lois

Thanks, Lois........

Hari

I heard from one of the people working on arrangements in St. Kitts, that the committee has booked entire hotels. I don't know if that means one has to book through the authorized tour operators and if it is the same for all of the island venues.

Tickets go on sale May 1st.

Lois,

How do i locate someone for Grenada accomodations? I took a look at the schedule and i think India may get to play 3 super 8 games in Grenada. (assuming we beat Sri Lanka and top pool B)

Thanks
Hari
