Barbados Airport Transfers

The Barbados Airport, the Grantley Adams Airport, is located on the southeastern coast, about a 45-minute drive from the majority of the Barbados villas which are located on the west coast of the Barbados Island. It is our recommendation, therefore, that Barbados villa rental guests permit Villas Caribe to arrange private Barbados airport transfers for their arrival for additional fees which generally run approximately US $60-$200 per passenger round-trip depending upon the proximity of the Barbados rental villa to Barbados airport and the number of people in the party. We may then have the car rental delivered to the Barbados rental villa for arrival.
