Barbados villas all are equipped with telephones and Barbados villa rental guests will be advised of the particular phone number of the property prior to departure. Please do note, however, that the majority of Barbados villas properties have a de-bar system on the phones which permits only local calls and collect international calls. If Barbados rental guests would like to have the de-bar removed from the phone, it is imperative that they notify us well in advance as an additional deposit is required.
