Need info on damage from Ivan to Barbados

[zuzanne]

:06: We are headed to barbados Oct 16th for a week at the Bougainvillea Resort. Does anyone know if the resort & Island had any major damage from Hurricane Ivan. I checked out a BBS on Barbados but did not find any info on Ivan other than it was brushing the South Coast area. Not known at the time how much if any damage there was.

Barbados fared remarkably well. The expected uprooted trees & foliage, downed powerlines & damaged roofs, but they're back in action, including diving, and the sun is peeking out.

Have no idea about the Bougainvillea Resort, but can email at res@bougainvillearesort.com.

Have fun.

Thank you for the info. I just got a response from the resort also. Shelley Foster Reservations manager said the resort had no damage at all and the Island had very little damage as the storm went to the South of them and did not make land fall there.
