Here we are in October! The evenings are getting darker earlier, it’s still hotter than hot but the promise of cooler December breezes are just around the corner. The cruise ships are coming back by the end of this month and everyone is hustling getting ready for the holidays.
Traditionally in Barbados, people get their houses ready for the season! We have lots of great ideas in this issue and super choices for accessories that will lift any property! Whether it’s painting and decorating, washing soft furnishings or pressure washing the outside, this is when Bajans do a through ‘spring clean’.
A huge well done to the Monique Archer and Terri Archer of Archer’s Hall Design Centre in Speightstown for their magnificent re- build after the tragic fire a few years ago. Speightstown remains a charming, quaint part of the island where you can wander around bustling streets and enjoy some great food and drink. Now that Archer’s Hall Design Centre is open with a wide array of furnishings and gifts, a beautiful light has been relit in the town!
The sale and rental of property on the island is looking healthy. We are hoping for a good tourism season but challenges are still there with the airlift from Europe taking a hit by the cancellation of Eurowings to the Caribbean and the current world situation. Barbados remains a gem in the Caribbean Sea and most people realise that a holiday here or owning a property is an excellent investment. Our pages are full of excellent choices and we invite you to explore both here and on line at www.barbadospropertynews.com.
