We only had a one night stay due to a canceled flight. So surprised once we arrived. It was absolutely beautiful. Ann Marie made you feel like you were at home. The facility had all the amenities of a high-end hotel Gorgeous pool, bar, veranda's and a block from the ocean. It is the best B&B I have ever experienced. I highly recommend if you are looking for quiet, tranquil beautiful accommodations. Perfect for couples to unwind after a busy day. Next time we visit we will be staying at the Hidden Gem. Thank you Ann Marie!!!

I booked a room at Hidden Gem due to a cancelled flight. It was close to the airport and the price was reasonable. It is located in a residential area, with a restaurant that is within walking distance. The food at Ocean Blue was delicious and reasonably priced. Our hostess with the mostest, Ms. Ann Marie, is the sweetest, most hospitable host that I have ever encountered. She is personable and attentive, with a fantastic sense of humor. Her house is absolutely gorgeous. It is sparkling clean, tastefully decorated, and comfortable. Although there is no beach access, there is a large pool that will make you appreciate the home that much more. I can't forget to mention that she makes the best rum punch I've ever had! Needless to say, I loved our short time with Ann Marie and Hidden Gem, (special shout out to Clarence <3). I hope to visit again soon.

The house is so BEAUTIFUL! Ameena is so wonderful and accommodating. It was her actual night off and she stayed and waited for us to arrive after our flight landed late. She then made sure we had transportation to arrive there and drove us HERSELF to have a night out on the town. She ensured we had transportation back. I only have great things to say about our stay. We were only there for a few hours since we had a long layover until we headed to another country. Ameena I appreciate the hospitality, the security and most importantly the time you took to make sure we had everything we needed for our short stay. Thank you ❤️

Great Stay
The Hidden Gem Barbados was truly a gem to stay at. The room I stayed in had a nice theme and was decorated nicely. The bed was comfortable, and I really enjoyed the rainfall shower. I had to leave early for the airport, but Ann-Marie had prepared some fruit, cheese and coffee. I enjoyed eating and enjoying my coffee at the table by the pool in the backyard. The fact that I didn't arrive at the Hidden Gem until early morning, I didn't realize how close the ocean was to the property. I took a chance by staying here, but it very much lived up to the name. Truly a hidden gem nestled near the beach. When I pass back through Barbados, I will definitely entertain staying here again. Thank you Ann Marie for a great stay. Your place is awesome.

Inch Marlowe is a quiet neighborhood near the ocean and away from the traffic and bustle of Bridgetown. The pool and the large shared upstairs shaded balcony are wonderful places to relax after a day exploring Barbados. Breakfasts are bountiful and delicious! Ann-Marie and Ameena are gracious and helpful hosts. Thank you!
