We went to Barbuda Belle as an extended family of 15 adults, including an 88 year old grandmother and three babies under 2, over Christmas & New year for 10 nights. Booking for that many people meant taking over almost the entire resort. I must say - booking made me nervous. What if we don't like the place? What if the reviews are fake? What if there is nothing to do? What if the pictures on the website are photoshopped which unfortunately is common these days? The concerns were endless. Caroline in reservations (who turned out to be the daughter of the owners) acted as the travel agent, setting aside all my concerns, but at the same time, making sure that we were fully prepared. The journey went like clockwork despite needing the plane from Antigua to Barbuda to go back and forth twice as it only has 8 seats. When we landed in Barbuda, we were met at the airstrip by the delightful Claudette. The trip from the airport is like arriving in paradise. The resort boat takes you across the mangroves with not a building in site - just endless beauty. You then arrive at Barbuda Belle...It must be the only resort in the Caribbean which stands alone, without any other building in site. The nearest civilisation would be a 3.5 hour walk and even then - you would have to swim part of the way. The main building is Balinese. A beautiful wooden structure designed by the owners (who had no prior hotel experience). The rooms are beautifully decorated and the bed is wonderfully comfortable. There is a panoramic view onto the sea and a lovely bathroom and private terrace. The sand is like white talcum powder - there is no need to photoshop. (ignore the guest pictures, as they need a lesson or two in photography!) . The sea is flat as a pancake as it's protected by a reef. Getting into the water is easy which is ideal for the elderly and young alike. I had been worried about staying for 10 night but it turned out that 10 nights wasn't enough. It would be a mistake to stay for any less than 5 nights. Who would ever want to stay in Antigua compared to the remote beauty of Barbuda? If you like fishing, this is paradise. You are guaranteed to catch a fish in less than 10 minutes. We always came back with enough fish to feed lunch for everyone, plus four or five lobsters expertly plucked from under the reefs. From sea to table within the hour ! Every single staff member was a delight. By the end of the stay, they were all like family. There are plenty of interesting trips to make. I would recommend you go to both sets of caves and don't miss the frigate birds (they are impossible to miss anyway). We had a birthday lunch at Nobu which is located on a beautiful beach, but I would suggest only going for a drink and a snack as the prices are exorbitant. New year at Barbuda Belle was wonderful. The owners were there and prepared a feast for us as if we had been family friends. We were the only guests, but the staff and their children who had been invited for the evening joined in and we danced away to a steel band until the early hours. What fun! Thank-you for giving us such a wonderful time. We will be back. In the mean-time, the Barbudan smiles will be etched into our memories for ever. We love you!

Barbuda Belle is a gem of a place. Located on probably the best beach in the world. It goes on for 11 miles and we didn’t see one other soul during our walks on it. Privately owned by a family and run almost like their own home. Seven rooms beautifully designed and appointed. Absolutely breath-taking location. The best service, nothing is too much trouble. The answer is ‘yes, no problem’ to any request and they are magicians at making dreams come true. Delicious food, prepared with love and attention. I can’t recommend it more highly.

Thank you Claudette and team for a magical stay. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our time with you in your unforgettable corner of paradise. We hope to be able to come back soon and stay longer next time. We loved our boat trip to see the puffed up frigates, chilling on your truly pink sand beach and all the delicacies served up by your kitchen. We look forward to the next time!

Having had a slightly stressful journey to get to Barbuda Belle, we arrived to the most heavenly place I think I’ve ever stayed. The attention to detail, the friendliness of the staff, the beaches, the turquoise water; it was all perfection. We were a large group of 2 families with 5 children, who also completely fell in love with Barbuda Belle. It is truly an incredible experience and the only negative was that we didn’t get to stay for longer. Thank you for an incredible stay, we will be back.

Going to Barbuda feels a bit like going to the end of the world - then getting to the Barbuda Belle you go even further - and it's amazing. Totally on its own on miles of crisp white sand tinted with blush pink seashells the scenery looks photoshopped. The staff are amazingly helpful and this solar-powered boutique resort has all mod cons. Really, really sublime. Go at least once in your life.

My wife and I stayed at Barbuda Belle for 3 nights over a long weekend. From the moment that we arrived, we felt like we had been welcomed into the nice, cozy beach home of a family member. The one- bedroom “Frigate” bungalow that we stayed in was well-appointed with a large balcony, wooden floors/furniture, L’Occitane toiletries in the bathroom, and a large window that opened up to a splendid view of the pink sandy beach. During our stay, there were no more than 4-6 other guests, so we felt very fortunate (and spoiled!) to have this paradise largely to ourselves. Having traveled extensively throughout the Caribbean to islands such as Anguilla, St Barth, Grand Cayman, and Great Exuma we are not easily impressed by most beaches – but impressed we were by the beach at Barbuda Belle as well as other beaches on the island and other forms of nature more generally! Apart from the sheer beauty of the location, Barbuda Belle’s key asset is its warm and caring staff and the high level of service they happily provide. Caroline was extremely helpful in handling our reservations, as well as answering questions about the resort and Barbuda months ahead of our arrival. Once we arrived at the airport in Barbuda, the manager, Claudette Thomas, warmly welcomed us and accompanied us for the 10-15 minute boat ride to the resort. She was wonderful at organizing our trips around the island to places such as Princess Diana Beach and the Frigate Bird Sanctuary (many thanks to Scott and Rell for the tour!). She also checked in regularly to see if we needed anything. The food at Barbuda Belle was phenomenal, led by their French chef! He cooked up most dishes from scratch. Some of our favorites included the conch fritters, lobster bisque, lobster and foie gras ravioli, beef filet, the French toast, the apple tart, and the Chocolate Fondant (not to mention the breakfast pastries and homemade yogurt). Ann Marie was extremely hospitable at breakfast and offered helpful suggestions for things to do on Barbuda. The bartender Alexander made a wonderfully potent rum punch and was a fount of Barbudan knowledge. The resort also has a spa and the masseuse Afiya provided a stellar massage treatment. In short, we had a nice relaxing holiday at Barbuda Belle and look forward to returning to share this special place with our children and/or other family members!

Staying for extended weekend of 5 days total, Barbuda Belle is the right place to be. A remote and secluded place with only eight bungalows but best service, excellent chef, confirmable rooms, very clean, with everything u need in a superb accommodation. A big wow to the view and wonderful piece-full location. If one is looking to relax a couple of days - definitely Barbuda Belle is the right place.

I think it will take all my writing skills to describe how much we enjoyed the Barbuda Belle without writing page after page, but I will try. We were scheduled come last year about this time when the hurricane devastated the entire island. We had already made a sizable deposit so naturally were concerned. The Belle offered to honor our deposit and give us a sizable discount if we would return at a later date. So we did. Presently the only way to get to Barbuda is from Antiqua (unless you charter a private plane). The island has a small but adequate landing strip and our flight took about 15-20 minutes using a small aircraft with a maximum capacity of 8 persons. Upon landing we were greeted by the properly manager, Claudette, upon arrival, got in a pick up with luggage in back and driven through town still showing many effects of the hurricane, and five minutes later we arrived at a boat dock. We had no idea we were going to boat to our destination. After a ride of 15 minutes we arrived at the Barbuda Belle and greeted warmly by the small staff. Our stilted college offered a large outdoor breezy porch, a four poster mosquito proof netted bed and bathroom with a wonderful shower with large fluffy towels. But the most amazing thing, besides the view of the ocean, was the food. We can only gush at how wonderful the chef was. Three meals a day were a culinary delight. If you are a foodie this is the place for you. I humbly suggest that it is worth coming here for the food if nothing else. The place is completely environmentally sufficient with solar panels supplying electricity and water desalination treatment. The lodge is beautiful with a fully equipped bar. There are big plans for the island’s future with a possible golf course and expanded international airport.
