Lovely Flat, Aircon faulty in one room
Both Michael and Angels were amazing hosts, helped us get groceries on our first day and gave us really useful information about getting around on the buses. The beach is a 5 minute walk away, it's beautiful but you must be aware when swimming as the waves are massive. You are a short drive / bus to Malibu beach which is beautiful and you can swim there!! The only niggle is he Aircon didn't work in my room, it only worked as a fan. I moved a stand alone fan into my room for my stay and this worked for me. But it might be worth looking into prior to the next booking. Other than that it was a wonderfully situated flat, super clean, responsive and helpful hosts. Would recommend!

First time in Barbados
Excellent hosts, helpful, friendly and attentive to anything that came up. We spent 3 weeks at Cranemist. Well appointed apartment in good repair. Very near a lovely beach (200m at most). Felt very safe and at home. Really enjoyed being out of the city but still had good access. Good local restaurants in immediate vicinity. We will return to Barbados and this property in particular. Best island vacation ever, and at 60 we have been to a few!

Fabulous stay!
Crane Apartments were absolutely ideal for the month I stayed on beautiful Barbados. It was 5 star clean, 5 star service from Michael and Andrea, owners. They are simply amazing! We had a couple small issues, whichthey had attended to same day!! Just an over WONDERFUL expeience. Crane is on quieter coast. I rented a car for the month to travel all around the island, so the apartment was excellent base to do this. I also felt, as did my numerous guests that visited during the month. The flat is very spacious, with lots of opportunity for cooking, if you like to do so on holiday! I like to eat out,but theete is impressive array of pots n pans, etc. Large fridge to house the bottles of duty free gin. A brilliant utility room off the kitchen with inside drying line and outside line too.The apartment is great and I would highly recommend it. 10 out of 10!

Great stay! Wonderful hosts!
Our first trip to Barbados was enjoyable! The rental accomodation was clean and exactly as described in the listing. Michael and Andria are lovely hosts. Very thoughtful and kind! The location is perfect for travelers who want something away from the hustle and bustle of the tourists and city. The area is quiet and serene. The beaches are just across the street. The 5 minute walk to the beach is lovely. The beaches were too rough for swimming but we had some memorial adventures exploring the beaches and caves (walking). We ended up renting a car to get around - I recommend renting a car in advance to see the island. It was hard to find an available car last minute. Once we had the car we were able to reach beaches, towns, restaurants in minutes. The apartment has air conditioning in the bedrooms only. The cross breeze cooled the apartment down somewhat but it did get quite hot on a couple of days. We enjoy the heat but it might not be for everyone. The wifi was perfectly reliable - we had to work during the first few days of our visit. We were able to work, attend all virtual meetings with no problem whatsoever. We recommend this rental! We will be back!

Extended remote-work stay in paradise
My friend and I were looking for the perfect place to stay to escape winter and work remotely for a few months, and found this gem. Michael was incredibly flexible and welcoming; he ensured we had tables to use as desks, confirmed the wifi speeds (they are incredibly fast!) and responded to our questions promptly. While we were under curfew for much of our stay, the quick walk to the beach, the fun waves, and the beautiful views in the surrounding area was perfect--and the nearby baker at Pekish made it all that much more wonderful. Cutters and smoothies were also within walking distance and so delicious. We took buses into Oistins and Bridgetown and they were easy to get the hang of, and everyone was so friendly. Would definitely recommend this as a place to stay!

Very nice
Nice and clean property. Whenever we had a request Michael was there to help us. Very prompt in responding. A little noisy because of the road but you get used to it soon. Andria was also helpful with the aeroport pick up and drop off. We would return for sure! Thank you both!

Greater value than most hotels
My daughter and I travelled from the USA and stayed here for one week. It was a great experience. Michael and his wife are very considerate, flexible, sociable and hospitality hosts. The unit was spacious, well maintained and ideally located. The courtesy airport pick up and drop off speak to the generosity of the hosts. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience with zero complaints. Whenever returning to Barbados, our family is likely to stay here again because of the greater value received when compared with most hotels.

Can I live here?! Mr.and Mrs. Laurie were amazing hostess. Starting with our flight being delayed by 3 hours they still greeted us with their complimentary car service to their home which is top notch and would definitely make for a repeat guest. Their beautiful apartment is clean, bright, efficient and most importantly airy due to the East Coast breeze. You are 2 minutes away (depending how fast you want to get there) from the world famous Crane Beach voted one of the 'Top 10 Caribbean Beaches' according to USA Today! Thank you again Mr. and Mrs. Laurie for your true, famous warm 'Bajan Hospitality'! You will not be disappointed.

Enjoyable stay
I had a nice time while staying in this apartment. It had everything we could need as far as cooking goes. I will say it was hot in the house, but the balcony was very nice and breezy and the air conditioned bedrooms were great. Plenty of parking space and an area to hang our clothes outside to dry. Plus boogy boards, beach chairs and towels. As well as beautiful sunsets every night. Overall it was very enjoyable.

Great spacious 2 bedroom apartment.
We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 weeks stay in this lovely apartment. The 2 bedroom apartment is airy, clean, spacious and comfortable. We especially enjoyed having breakfast on the balcony every morning and planning our day. A 3 minute walk to Crane Beach on a hot day makes this location paradise. Michael and Andria have thought of everything to make the stay enjoyable. Renting a car is preferable, specially if you want to see the island in all it’s beauty since the local bus service takes up to an hour to Bridgetown one way. The restaurants nearby are great, Marco Polo (best thin crust pizza is our favourite if you need a change from chicken and fish), Cutters and Del Roti. If you have never been to Barbados you will fall in love with island and it's people. It’s our third time and we will be back.

Pleasant, clean, and relaxing .....
What a nice place to reside for a few weeks. Spent six weeks here and had a wonderful time. The apartments are very nice, spacey, and well appointed. Beaches were a short walk from the apartment. The bus stops into and out from the city were very close by. Getting somewhere on the buses was easy - getting back - not so reliable time wise. There are a few places to eat nearby but mainly you needed to travel a little ways to get into the heart of cities. Weather was wonderful even with the occasional little shower. Michael was there when ever needed, but the need was very minimal. He picks you up and drops you off at the airport any time of day. Grocery stores and mini-marts are fairly close but food costs on the Island are fairly pricey. Autos for hire were readily available but a bit pricey and the roads not so good. Also, right hand drive, but just had to think a bit.. All in all, We had a very memorable winter break on a Beautiful Island with wonderful residents who were all very friendly .....

We had a wonderful stay at the apartment, which was a very short walk away from the crane beach. All the facilities worked well such as the washing machine,air conditioning and the oven. Micheal was always on hand if we needed any help. The rooms were clean and spacious. We also enjoyed playing in the garden with our toddler and baby. I would definitely recommend this apartment to a friend. It was perfect for our small family of 4. Thank you very much.
