Is Barbados in 5 days worth it?
 
Hi everyone!
I would like to plan a trip to Barbados in January or February....but we only have 5 days...do you think it is worth it to go there for that amount of time? We would be leaving from New York. Any info you have would be great!

Yes- ONLY if you have a direct flight out of NY-

If you have to change planes in Miami, you will spend 1 day in each direction flying...

I agree! We did 5 nights for our trip years ago, non stop out of NY.

Barbados is a great island. We took a really interesting tour. 5 days would be good. Hire a driver and have him take you all over the island.

In my opinion, 5 days (4 nights)isn't long enough. You will still kill at least one day traveling (even with the nonstop). If you could spend more time there, I would recommend it.
