I went to Paynes Bay, St. James in October 1996 and the weather was gorgeous! We had a few showers, but tropical breezes and warm weather was the norm. The next time I go back I'm planning to wear knee-length skirts because anything longer is too hot! Enjoy your honeymoon. Dancing on a moon-lit beach is wonderful!

I think Barbados is one of the safest islands to go to. There's crime everywhere, and you have to be smart and aware when you travel, but I have never felt threatened there like I did in many other islands. I've been to Barbados 16 times and I've always had a great time.

I spent my honeymoon there in late August and thought it would be much hotter and more humid than my many winter trips there, but it wasn't! We had perfect weather everyday. Mid to upper 80's, but a nice breeze, and not too humid. It was great! The only rain we had was a few showers at night.

Barbados is a BEAUTIFUL island hence the large number of visitors every year. If you are looking for a very quite, secluded, romantic holiday spot for your honeymoon/holiday which is far away from the hustle & bustle of the tourist then we have the spot for you - "Little Bay" in Consett Bay, St. John. If you are interested email for more information on this lovely cottage (locally owned).

WHAT IS ALMOND BEACH CLUB AND ALMOND BEACH VILLAGE RESORTS LIKE, I BELEIVE BOTH ARE ALL INCLUSIVE, BUT ONE ALLOWS CHILDREN. WHAT ONE IS BETTER? WE DON'T HAVE CHILDREN BUT DON'T MIND BEING AROUND THEM!! WE LIKE NICE ROOMS, TERRIFIC BEACH, GOOD SELECTION OF RESTAURANTS (not buffet all the time). THINKING OF BARBADOS FOR EARLY NEXT YEAR. THANX.

Both resorts are very nice - I think I would choose the Club, which is the one that doesn't allow children over the Village. Although the village is larger, it is very far north and unless you have a car you're a little more limited if you want to leave the resort and explore. The Club is more centrally located in the middle of the west coast beaches. I've stayed at both resorts prior to them being owned by Almond but have heard from many friends who have recently stayed at both. Since you don't have children and don't have to worry about accommodating them, go to the club. You can look them both up and get a better feel for the properties at www.almondresorts.com. If you have any other questions about Barbados in general, I've been there 16 times and I'm sure I could help. Enjoy! It's the best!
