Barbados Apartment Rental Listings
There are a variety of reasons for renting an apartment in Barbados and all will
be dependent on your budgeted allowance. Perhaps you are relocating to Barbados
for employment reasons, in which case your employer may be offering a housing allowance.
If so then you may be able to afford an apartment within a complex that offers laundry
facilities and a swimming pool for your convenience and enjoyment of your time off.
If you are not fortunate enough to have an employer offering to help pay your apartment
rental you can expect to pay approximately $1,000 BDS monthly for an unfurnished
apartment in Barbados. If you would like a second bedroom then you can expect to
pay approximately $1,500 BDS per month for a long-term rental agreement or lease.
These types of apartments normally do not come with the luxury of a swimming pool;
if you would like the luxury of having a swimming pool you can expect to pay an
additional $500 BDS for the same amenities of a 2-bedroom apartment.
Many long-term apartment rentals will include water, electricity and telephone costs,
while others will require you as the tenant to pay these charges monthly in addition
to the monthly rental fee.
If you are looking for a long-term rental it is advisable to enlist the help of
a local
Barbados real estate agent as they can be helpful in finding the type of property
that meets your requirements. You will need to advise them of the length of time
you would like to rent an apartment for, the number of people occupying the apartment,
and your monthly rental budget. They can then advise you of the properties available
for lease within your budget.
For short-term rentals apartments average from $75 to $500 US per night, depending
on the amenities and features available.
For those on a lower budget you may be able to get a short term self-catering apartment.
These will be basic apartments and may not have amenities such as a swimming pool
within the complex, but if it is located near the beach then this may lessen the
concern. These budget apartments are ideal if you are coming to Barbados on a water
sports holiday/vacation and will spend your days in and around the many water related
activities and are simply looking for an apartment that is clean and comfortable
to rest at night.

coasts, or choose an apartment complex with amenities that include a swimming pool,

without leaving your apartment complex.
