holiday at Ocean Two Resort & Residences in

warm and sunny Barbados !To make you feel even more welcome, we have decided there is one way to make you a “Bajan” for the duration of your stay and that is, giving you

a taste of our world with the terms/language that is most used around this time of the year.

Remember, once you use these terms here on the property or anywhere in the world any Barbadian would recognize your language.

You are now officially a part of our Ocean Two Team!
