Budget Hotels in Paynes Bay, St. James

"This resort was beautiful, the nature, the staffs were so nice and welcoming. Our contemporary 2 bedroom suites was a dream. The view was amazing. Although the beach had seaweed, The Crane offered a shuttle bus to Carlisle Bay every day roundtrip which was breathtaking. You were able to visit Bridgetown as well! My family will definitely return."

"Beautiful beach front "

"We stayed in a standard room - King bed for 7 nights while staying in Barbados for the Australia V West Indies test cricket. We loved our accommodation. Our room was on the second floor overlooking one of the pools plus we had beach views. It was modern and clean. The hotel arranged a shuttle for all guests going to and from the cricket each day. This was fabulous! Earl and Dave (our drivers) were both legends. The shuttle cost 20 BBD pp. I loved that we had an actual laundry - not an expensive laundry service - (but instead a shared washing machine and dryer on our floor) that we could use without payment. We used it several times - there's a clothes rack in the room for drying clothes on your balcony. The kitchenette was well equipped - a decent sized fridge and freezer (which was great for freezing waters for each day at the cricket), toaster, kettle, coffee machine (no instructions for how to work it though) crockery and glassware. The room was spacious, and the balcony was perfect after a long hot day at the cricket. Local buses (we only used the yellow ones) are literally at your doorstep for only $3.50 BBD pp in each direction (no matter where you get off). We caught them regularly to check out Bridgetown, Holetown...A taxi from the airport to the hotel will cost around $70USD from memory - what I loved was the fixed pricing chart at the airport. The hotel has an awesome bar on site and a little store. Although, for groceries just take a local bus to the supermarket. "

"Great staff and hotel "

" ⸻ Our stay at The House was absolutely wonderful! From the moment we arrived, the staff greeted us warmly and ensured we had an exceptional experience. Every detail, from the beautifully elegant room to the overall ambiance of the property, exuded class and sophistication. The food was amazing—especially the dinners, which were truly exceptional. Each night featured a new menu, and we even had the opportunity to speak with the chef to share how phenomenal everything was. We also spent some time at the spa, which was exactly what we needed for our couples’ rejuvenation week. Above all, the entire team excelled in hospitality. Their graciousness, attentiveness, and warmth made them a sheer joy to be around. A special mention goes to Pat for the incredible omelets and conversation each morning, and to Kwesi for always making sure we had everything we needed by the pool. The staff truly made us feel at home—like part of the family. We absolutely loved our time here and are already looking forward to coming back!"
