What a remarkable achievement in such a short time, not a large garden but what amazing plants a must see for plant and garden lovers, background music while Anthony shows and talks you through what he has made a tropical gem. Well worth the visit.

An incredibly beautiful tropical garden, a surprise around every bend in the path. And peaceful. Anthony was most welcoming and informative; his creation is wonderful.

Beautiful and intimate garden, excellent music playing in the background, with each little corner having comfortable chairs useful for enjoying the flowers and birds, or just sitting in quiet contemplation. I nearly had to drag my wife out of the place she loved it so much!

Well worth a visit. Antony Hunte is a charming man, showed us around his house and told us a lot of its history. He also serves the best rum punch I've had in barbados, and only 5BD, The garden is full of amazing exotic plants, plenty of seating areas to relax.

I just found out that they will be doing some replanting and landscaping in June and will not be open -- however, am very very happy to hear I will be able to spend time there... More

We took a taxi from downtown Bridgetown straight to Hunte's Gardens. We were welcomed by the guy who takes care of all the plants, where we paid and entered. It is literally breathtaking!!!! The pictures online DO NOT do Hunte's Gardens the justice it deserves!!! The whole time we walked through, we were in awe of it all. After we... More

Even though it was nice and beautiful, I thought the 15usd was completely ridiculous because it wasn't that big or anything excited, it was just very pretty but not worth 15 bucks if u ask me. I don't know why it's number one. The only reason I visited it was because trip advisor said it was number one. Well never... More

This is a magical place with the feeling that time froze a hundred years ago. The pathways wind around with several seating areas. I wish we had taken a picnic and some cold wine to enjoy although if I had sat down I would probably have slept such is the soothing affect if the gentle piano music
