Written by the company

For over 20 years, we’ve been helping holidaymakers find the perfect vacation rentals in Barbados. It all began with managing a single villa—a friend’s Sandy Lane property that was struggling to attract bookings. After boosting its reservations by 90% in just one year, we began representing additional Barbados villas on behalf of individual owners. Every vacation rental listed on our website is privately owned and managed by trusted local house managers. Their goal is to make your stay as smooth, memorable, and enjoyable as possible. We personally visit Barbados each year to inspect our current listings and evaluate new villa options. While we’re there, we also explore beaches, restaurants, catamaran cruises, and other experiences that guests may want to know about, ensuring we stay up to date with everything Barbados has to offer. From your initial inquiry to the moment you arrive, we are committed to providing exceptional customer service. We offer same-day quotes and can assist with car rentals, airport transfers, and even pre-arrival grocery deliveries. Whatever you need, we’ll go the extra mile to make it happen. Once you arrive in Barbados, our local house managers take over. They're available throughout your stay to answer any questions or arrange activities through our dedicated concierge service. Our mission is to offer a diverse selection of high-quality Barbados vacation rentals to suit every traveler. Whether you're looking for beachfront villas, Royal Westmoreland properties, or luxury homes in Sandy Lane, we’ve got you covered. While we don’t book flights, we’re happy to share the best available fares. Prefer a hands-off approach? Just give us a call or send an email with your villa rental preferences, and we’ll take care of the rest.

Great experience from start to finish with Tropical Island Rentals

We have used Tropical Island Rentals for the past three years for our travels to Barbados, and Chris has come up with the goods each time.
Whether it is just the two of us, or we have family and friends visiting, Tropical Island Rentals can source a variety of villas, meaning we are spoiled for choice!
Thank you for taking the pressure off.

Exceptional service.…

From the start of booking process to villa arrival, everything was perfect. The villa itself was incredible. We stayed at White coral villa. 11 porters place. Villa is beautiful, fabulous location. Attention to detail in this villa exceeded my expectations having rented many villas in Barbados, this was by far the best. Highly recommended.

Excellent company to book with

Chanced upon Tropical Island Rentals to book our holiday to Barbados, and am glad I did. Chris took the time to have a phone conversation with me initially, and then sent through a range of villas to look at. The whole booking process was very smooth, and Chris was excellent in his knowledge, the ideas he came up with and even the trivial questions he answered. Would definitely recommend.

Totally recommend this brilliant company

We cannot recommend Tropical Island Rentals highly enough! Chris was so helpful before our visit, his knowledge and expertise was fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble. We booked our airport transport through Chris and we were given the very welcome option of popping into the supermarket on the way. Our villa was spotless, in a fabulous location, fully equipped and beautifully furnished. We will definitely use this company again.
