We have a family with two young boys and we travel all over the world looking for adventure that are safe for our kids. Zed's surfing class is top notch. We spent the week surfing Freight's Bay and found it to be a very easy left break with beautiful crystal blue water and long forgiving waves. Zed's team of people are wonderful and fully in tune with the vibe of a zen island lifestyle.

As I am thrust back into the hamster wheel of my daily grind back home, I am content to know that Zed is out there living the dream and sharing it with others that are willing to open their eyes to see it.

Also try Chicken Rita or Buffy's bar on Friday night for excellent local food.

Stayed with my boyfriend in March (a little late posting!) and like everyone else, loved this place and especially the people running it. Booked early for peak season so we were able to get the Driftwood Studio which we found out was Zed's original home on the property and that only added to the charm of the spot. Thought it was pretty funny to have a cable box installed under the TV but no actual cable or channels and had a good laugh about it when we went to ask Zed about it... decided that spending the night with him and the rest of the staff and their friends over some Banks was much more fun than TV anyways, so I'm actually glad. They do have a DVD selection and player for people that want them, but he had lent the whole box of movies to one of the other suites so just ask about it if you want a movie or anything.

The Driftwood Studio is particularly amazing for the patio area outdoors. We spent the majority of every day out there, going in between lounging around on the patio, to the beach, to the surf, and of course to the kitchen to make up some more rum punch or grab a beer - perfect spot. We didn't have much luck with the Wifi inside the suite but could sometimes get it out on the patio and it was good near the office if you just sat out on one of the many picnic tables. Bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. We did notice a funny smell on a few occasions and the only thing we could manage to link it to was if the shower area was wet, but I really have no idea what the small was and we seemed to fix this by showering outside with the awesome ocean view and who wouldn't prefer that anyways!

There is a bus that stops/picks up not too far, but make sure you know where to get off and on since ours ended up making a wrong turn and we had to walk for about 30 minutes with our supply of beer for our stay which can be HOT in Barbados weather! Oistens is pretty close to get some groceries and things from there and with all of the friendly people around the property, you might luck out like we did and be able to catch a ride into town. Also, the airport taxi that they use is totally reliable and friendly - I think it was $30 (Barbados dollars) to get to the airport and a pretty quick ride.

Make sure you spend some time getting to know Zed and the rest of his friends and staff - they are all amazing!

Surfer's Point is one of the best places in the world. Stayed there with surf buddies in January. Perfect waves, amazing view, great people, safe and clean.
I loved the chilled atmosphere, the owner's Zed & Claudia are always taking care of everything, boards, rental cars, BBQ. Zed and his surf teacher colleague Junior supported us with their caribbian surfknowlegde. Maurizio, called 'Dottore', who has always a band-aid, eyedrops and disinfectant in his pocket is around every day from 9 -17h.
Thank you all! God bless you!
I miss the place every day and counting the days until my next stay, still 7 months to go;-(

This was our first trip to Barbados and a first attempt at surfing too. The location is fantastic and hospitality of Zed, Claudia and Maurizio warm and friendly.
I was extremely apprehensive about surfing but thanks to Junior, Mike and Bodi I met initial success at it quite naturally.
All in all one of the the most wonderful holidays we have been to so far.
Would love to be back...

Special thanks to Junior - he is a great surf instructor with outstanding attention to detail - I bet he can get any one to surf !
