Holetown…..it hasn’t got the most flattering name, but it definitely has some good points! This is where I stayed for my two weeks of glorious Caribbean sun. Although I stayed in self-cateringaccommodation, there are many attractive hotels within Holetown. The thing I loved most about this place were the trendyrestaurants, my favourite being Angry Annies, which had Jasper Carrott the much-loved comedian from over here, dining in whilst I was there. There are also many fast food restaurants if you need a cheap night out! The night-life in Holetown is not that exciting.....but if you prefer to spend your evenings just enjoying a relaxing drink like I do, then this is probably the place for you. It's very easy to relax in Holetown. The shopping here is very good, it is easy to pick up some cheap bargains and also leave with some of the authentic gifts....don’t forget to buy some rum before you leave! The only thing that disappointed me about Holetown is it’s beach and I do believe this to be an important factor on a Caribbean holiday. The beach is very small and narrow, and can easily become crowded. Many locals approach you to sell gifts on the beach here, it can get a bit much sometimes, and we noticed it didn’t really happen when we visited other beaches on the island. People are friendly in Holetown though, and they do make you feel really welcome. Despite this, it is easy to get to other beaches nearby, as public buses run through the town constantly.
