Barbuda is the perfect holiday destination because we are a very small unspoilt island with no mass tourism or chain hotels. We are quite different to our sister island Antigua, sometimes difficult to get to but not far away. Frangipani is based on the Atlantic side of Barbuda where it is a little more windy, rough and rugged than the calmer Caribbean sea – but great for bird watching, snorkelling, fishing, nature, peace and quiet and searching the beach for random treasures!
The Guesthouse is a building of concrete and lapwood construction with amazing views on all sides, of the sea and the Barbudan countryside. It has two generous sized bedrooms – each with their own shower bathroom. One bedroom has a king size bed and the second bedroom has twin beds which can be made into a queen sized bed. It has an open plan kitchen sitting room, very well equipped for cooking your own lobster and four small galleries – one off each bedroom, one off the kitchen overlooking the Highland hills and one off the front door over-looking the Atlantic Ocean, with Two Foot Bay to the east and Fishing Creek to the west. The Guesthouse is fully equipped with solar powered lighting and fridge, charging facilities and has water coming direct from our well. Under the Guesthouse there is a breezy area with seating for barbecues and happy hour drinks in the shade.
The Guesthouse caters for visitors who are looking for affordable accommodation close to the ocean, with your own beach, where the only people you might see will be local fishermen or your neighbours in the Cabana. If you have already stayed with us in our Cabana, our Guesthouse offers you, your family and friends more space to enjoy Frangipani and can be booked with the Cabana for a larger group.
The Guesthouse rate is $400usd per night for the whole house, comfortably sleeping four people, with a three night minimum. It can be booked direct through us or via airbnb.
As part of the Frangipani experience, we offer a free transfer to the guesthouse from the airport or ferry, with a short village tour. We give you a welcome pack, advice and information about Barbuda, and a fish pot for you to catch your own fish. There are several outdoor cooking areas with barbecues and a bonfire; hammocks, books, toys, games, binoculars – but no wifi!
We also offer a cocktails and canapés service, and grill nights with local fish or lobster. For more information on this and our prices, email us when you book.
Please click on the buttons below for more information about Barbuda especially on the Barbuda website. We recommend you book our tours and grill nights with us prior to arriving on the island. You will need a car if you want to see Barbuda and really get to know the island and the people. We sometimes have one that can be hired if you ask in advance. Frangipani is off the beaten track but is within easy reach of the village and other beaches with a car and maybe possible on a bike depending on your cycling ability.
