Editor’s Comments

The buzz word at the moment is HOT HOT HOT! Not only are the temperatures challenging at this time of year but the island is ALIVE with Crop Over Fever! Parties have started and anticipation is high as for the first time since the pandemic, people are feeling the excitement and are ready to party!

Summer tends to be a quieter time for the real estate market but after speaking to a few agents, I’m not sure this is true this year! From all reports most of them are busy and sales and rentals are ticking over nicely. Barbados is always a good place to invest!

In this summer issue of BPN, we look at design in the home. We spoke to some of the island’s top designers about various rooms in the house and how they can be improved just by adding new interior décor, changing the lighting, a pop of colour with some new accessories. It’s often said that nice modern kitchens and bathrooms sell a home so if your house looks a little tired - take a look at our Design Section and get inspired!

The beaches are beautiful - take advantage of the sultry summer season and enjoy some of the best seabathing in the world! Take in the Crop Over Festivities and get to work on the home for the upcoming winter season. Now is the time when things are quieter. And don’t forget to prepare for the stormy times. More on that in the next edition…. Pamela x
