Family-friendly vacation rentals in Mullins Beach

Fantastic villa with beautiful views, spacious, serene & comfortable. We went as a family of four, (2 under 2), and the place was exceptionally comfortable for us. Even though the house does have stairs, there was plenty of space for our toddler to play and roam the balcony etc. Amanda has a delightful villa manager who looked after our initial shopping needs, extra baby equipment that we decided to rent (bedrail) and was on hand to deal with any queries we had. The rooms were very comfortable, super king bed ensured we didn't miss home one bit with AC in the bedrooms. The showers were great, spacious, clean and with good pressure. The kitchen was great, with pretty much every utensil we required and a large american style fridge freezer. The views from the balcony transport you into an idyllic place and I could sit there for hours enjoying the cool breeze. We did not use the pool on this visit however we did use the hot tub which was lovely and ready for us to use. Highly recommend.

This was my first time staying at an AirBnB in Barbados after several visits to either family members or hotels while visiting the island. My entire family (wife, 2 kids and my mom) were all highly impressed as were friends and family who visited us. The pool was perfect, the beach was amazing and listening to the waves on the balcony became a way for all of us to find peace and quiet. The security was friendly and informative. Our host Jameela was an ANGEL! We have many travel struggles getting to the island and she was always responsive, supportive and helpful. The cleaning lady was so friendly and did an awesome job. We will definitely be coming back the next time we are back in Barbados!!!

We stayed at 204 Mistle Cove for one week. The location is right in the heart of Lawrence Gap with all restaurants and amenities within walking distance. The apartment itself is just as advertised, although the view is actually nicer than the pictures. The main room sleeps with a broadview of the ocean and the calming sounds of waves. The patio is spacious and perfect for breakfast , lunch and dinners in front of the ocean. My daughter loved the pool and the ocean front was a lot of fun with the high waves. A calmer and longer beach was only a two min walk from the apartment at Dover. Overall, we had everything we could have needed here, and would easily stay again if we go back to Barbados.

We stayed at Steven’s apartment for 10 days and had an amazing holiday (2 couples). The apartment was wonderful and just as described and there were lots of additional touches that were really thoughtful such as the Cool box and ice blocks and a couple of snorkels. The Sugar Hill complex was beautiful and peaceful. The pools were a lovely temperature (lit at night and open until 9pm) and grounds very well kept. We had a couple of lovely lunches at The Deck (Shrimp Pad Thai excellent!) and the rum punch during happy hour very good. We utilised the Fairmont beach club membership particularly to go and watch the sunsets but also travelled around the Island - which always felt friendly and safe. Kavell was super responsive when we had any questions. I had to do some work whilst out here so had to use the table on the balcony (only minor point was that there wasn’t an electric socket close by). It is an approx 20 min walk down the hill (via Store house Road) to the beach club.

Jeff and Vicki's place was perfect! It is on the slower side of the island so it was great for relaxing and enjoying each other's company. They were extremely responsive and left some snacks and a few beers to get our vacation started. Amazing views of the ocean! Looking forward to staying again when we return.

I had a great stay at Wayne's place, and found it easy to get everywhere I wanted without a vehicle. Loved walking to a new beach each day, and took rides back to the condo via easy-to-access public transportation. Plenty to do in close proximity, including bars, restaurants, a supermarket, and plenty of sunny beaches. Neighbors were friendly, and it was easy to sleep at night due to the quiet surroundings. Would love to come back!

Only a 5 min walk to the freights bay surf break - so if you’re going to surf this is an awesome place to stay. The house was very spacious. Highly recommend.

Absolutely loved our stay here! The beach access across the street is a 2 min walk, very quiet, and is absolutely beautiful! There's lots of restaurants, beaches, and convenient stores within walking distance. Taxis and the little white "taxi" vans are running constantly so you never have to wait for a ride. The condo itself is well laid out, has everything you need for cooking at home, and the pool was an added bonus! Thanks again for hosting us and I look forward to a return trip in the future!

Lex’s place had it all. There is a beautiful beach right outside the back door, it’s walkable to a grocery store, several cafes and bars and the Friday fish fry. We also could grab busses right outside the house to get to Bridgetown for more beaches and restaurants. Walking around felt safe (well lit) but of course be aware of your surroundings and the cars wiz by so be aware of where the sidewalks are. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space. We loved how there were lots of towels and pillows! The only thing to prepare for is that the second bedroom gets traffic noise so maybe bring earplugs if you’re sleeping in that room.

We loved staying at this place! The home was very comfortable, it had about everything you’d need, and the beds were very comfortable. Communication with the host was easy, and the location was great, especially if you like to surf. The beach nearest the house is great if you like to surf, watch surfers, or see sea turtles. If you want to swim, walk a few more minutes down the road to Miami Beach, and you’ll have one of the best swimming beaches in the area. We would definitely stay here again.

As a family of 2 adults and 2 teenagers we really enjoyed our stay at Lion Castle. The apartment is spacious and has great views from all sides especially the rear balcony where Polo horses graze and you can see the coast which means great sunsets. The estate is spacious a d well keptand the pool area is a beautiful setting. The pool was a great bonus for our kids. The driveway to the estate is majestic and you could never tire of the site of the palm trees that line it as you approach. Elizabeth was a great host and extremely helpful and attentive as were other family members also within the grounds. The location is peaceful and beautiful and ideal for exploring the whole island as it is centrally based. How was others have said you do need a hire car but I would recommend that for anyone visiting the island who really wants to explore its beautiful beaches and scenery wherever you stay. Overall we had a fantastic 2 weeks and would definitely recommend Lion Castle and host Elizabeth

We had a wonderful months stay in Elizabeth's cottage. We felt at home as soon as we stepped inside. The kitchen was very well equipped. Super comfy beds and lovely bed linen and plenty of towels. It was extremely clean and we loved the outside space. The locals were so friendly and we always felt safe. Elizabeth's Dad, Tommy was near if needed and Heather did a wonderful job cleaning each week. Had some great chats ! Missing the sunshine and having breakfast on the veranda. You can see the sea from the cottage and be swimming in 5 minutes! There is a great fish market at the end of the road where the fish is so fresh. We visited last year and stayed in a hotel but staying in a cottage for us was so much more enjoyable. We did hire a car as we wanted to explore the island but it's not a necessity. Thank you, Elizabeth, would love to return in the future.

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful property! The seclusion was exactly what we were looking for, offering a peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle. The place was perfect—cozy, well-equipped, and surrounded by nature. Ruth and Chris were amazing hosts, making sure we had everything we needed and ensuring our stay was comfortable. We truly enjoyed every moment and felt completely at home. If you're looking for a relaxing getaway in a serene setting, this is the place to be. Highly recommend it to anyone seeking tranquility and a unique experience. Would love to return!

Chris was a great host, very welcoming and responsive throughout our stay and was kind enough to accommodate our request on the last day. Place is exactly as per the photos, clean+had all the necessary items to make it a comfortable stay. We loved the fact that, although we were six adults, the space never felt small — loved the 2 bathrooms, and 2 separate showers + each room had a little en-suite vibe (working sink + mirror). The patio was spacious: the best hangout spot. Beautiful stretch of beach: very peaceful. Beach chairs were useful but very old, and some broken. The only downside of our stay, was that the six of us got eaten alive by the amount of mosquitoes/sand flies/no see-ums (not quite sure what it was) but in my 12 years of coming to Barbados (always around the same time) never had so many bites. No mosquito nets in the home. Reco: Highly recommend using mosquito repellent to avoid the pain. Overall would recommend this space for a great stay!

Very friendly and communicative hosts! Beautiful ocean view from the front porch and convenient walking to beaches, local restaurants, cafes, and shopping. Would stay again!!

We stayed for 2 weeks and the location was perfect ZR11 right out the front door takes you right to Bridgetown! Sheila is next door and will help with everything you might need and Katherine is just a text away We WILL be going back it was a great time and a great place to stay

This is our first time in Barbados and wow what a place. Makara our host could not do enough for us. Arranging collection from the airport to helping us get a hire car. The house was amazing and exactly what we needed for our holiday. Our house keeper Amanda was so thorough and kept the house immaculate. I would recommend getting a hire car. We would definitely stay here again. Such a beautiful house. Very peaceful.

Our host, Cathy is the absolute best host. She made herself available to us 24/7 and truly meant it. The house is in a safe area, however, it is up a hill which can be difficult to walk up. Regarding the house, there is absolutely everything one may need for the pool and beach. From beach chairs to pool toys, Cathy has got it. My family and I would definitely book again next time we are in Barbados.

Had a wonderful stay at Adrian’s villa. Everything you could ask for and in walking distance of some stunning beaches, a few lovely bars and restaurants and a very handy supermarket. The buses are easy to catch from the bottom of the road and plenty of car parking which is useful as we hired a car for our stay. No 6 overlooks the pool and amazing sunset views. Lovely quiet neighbourhood and the friendliest locals you could wish for. Would 100% recommend and would definitely return.

Rodney was the best host I’ve ever encountered on Airbnb. Started with an amazing welcome and got better by the day. He was always on hand to give us tips and advice. And helped us navigate the hotspots in more than one occasion. Ie getting to Oisten market early and where to eat when we got there to avoid LONG waits! Will be excited to book another stay in this amazing apartment.

What a lovely stay! Excellent location for a quiet and relaxing vacation, but lots to do nearby within walking distance, and easy to travel to neighbouring parishes. The pool was great and the condo itself had everything you could need. We can’t wait to come back.

Glenn and Pat were very friendly and accommodating hosts right from the start. Whether we had questions about places to visit, needed help with shopping or information about car rental, Glenn and Pat were always available and never hesitated to help us. The accommodation also left nothing to be desired. It was clean and had everything we needed for a great few days. The highlight was of course the large pool where you could swim and relax. One thing to bear in mind about the accommodation, however, is that it is a little out of the way and various spots such as beaches or restaurants are difficult to reach on foot. For this reason, it is advisable to hire a car, although everything important can also be reached by bus.

What a perfect place to relax and feel right at home. All the pictures are just what you see. Very well appointed condo with everything you need - especially the amazing view, really nice pools, and so close to so many restaurants of all kinds. The Gap gives you everything to enjoy a fabulous Barbados trip. Ray was so fast and complete with suggestions and helpful hints, plus right on with restaurants - go to Primo Bar & Bistro you won’t be disappointed - same with Cocktail Kitchen; Bliss for breakfast is a must - all these in walking distance. WiFi in the unit was great, cool A/C, comfy beds…did I mention the view!! What a treat to have coffee in the morning on the balcony watching the day start to unfold and listen to the waves so close. Ray’s condo has everything we wanted! Tony, mgr there, was at our door making sure we had everything within 20 minutes walking into this lovely condo. We’ll be back and tell all our friends too. Thanks, Ray!

Perfect home for a large group of friends/family! The house is very spacious and peaceful. It was lovely to wake up to the sounds of the ocean each morning. It also looks even more beautiful in person versus the photos! However, the location is a lot further from the main attractions of the island so be prepared to do a lot of driving. But if you want to stay somewhere more peaceful I highly recommend Melissa’s place! Overall we really enjoyed the space and it was a great getaway!
