Wonderful stay at Bruadair over Christmas and New Years! It was well equipped to accommodate the 13 of us, 6 parents and 7 young adults (17-24yrs). Also perfectly located - super easy west coast access, and ABC highway just 5 mins away to access rest of island.
Suggestion: Get a Car! Don't rely on walking to Holetown. You are indeed walking distance to Holetown, but the road is narrow, there are no sidewalks, and several blind corners - don't walk it - too risky. Drive and park in Massey or Lime Grove lots. PLUS, there is so much more to see than the sedate west coast. Bajan drivers are courteous, roads are better than you'd think. I lived there for years and never had an issue.
As for Bruadair, it's really lovely but the photos don't quite do it justice nor do they relate the house's unusual layout. It is 3 floors, with lots of stairs and no railings, which is perhaps not ideal for someone with mobility issues or if you are chasing small children all day.
It's a 'reverse' house, where you park and enter on the top floor, and the stairs then go down to the next two floors. There are 2 kitchens, one on the top floor and one the bottom floor, on the larger pool/patio level. There is another small pool on the top level to the side of the house which gets a wee bit more sun than the lower level. We only used the upper kitchen, the smaller of the 2, as it was brighter and had more ventilation than the lower one.
There are 3 lounge areas: The covered outdoor porch on the top floor was bright, had lovely breezes and was convenient to the kitchen and our preferred dining area. The middle floor indoor lounge, with a TV, is the largest and could hold all 13 of us. This is where we played charades, karaoke, et. The 'kids' preferred to hang out here as the wifi is located on this floor ;)
Finally, there is a smaller outdoor dining and lounge covered porch on the ground floor by the pool/patio. However, we found this area be the least breezy, hence buggiest, so tended to avoid it. Bajan mosquitos/bugs can be nasty and are ubiquitous in Barbados, but particularly bad in shady and still areas - so bring your bug spray! We did not find this to be an issue when we kept to the upstairs areas.
Running out of room! So beds were lovely and firm. AC in bedrooms - great!. Only thing we missed was not having a dryer - very challenging with 13 people's laundry, 13 beach towels that need washing often and only 1 small drying rack outside.
Wonderful! Just do it!
