Great. We will be back.

Review Submitted: January 2, 2012 Date of Stay: December 2011
Great villa.
Having been to Barbados more than 20 times I have finally found somewhere, comfortable, private, clean, and well equipped. The villa is located on a quiet residential street in Sunset Crest, within walking distance of Holetown beaches, restaurants and shops. A large lounge area, great outdoor seating terrace and BBQ. Lovely pool.
We were greeted by Louis who was very pleasant and informal, and Emerald the maid, worked well without ever getting in our way.
Both bedrooms are a good size, 1 with en-siute, both with air-con.
The photos on this website really do not do the property justice. In reality the property is actually much larger than it looks and the driveway and pool area too.
The facilities were very good, well equipped, reliable internet wifi, CD player and ipod dock.

My only negative comment would be the noise of the neighbours dogs. There was constant barking from 2 different premises (4 different dogs) on the other side of the road which sadly disturbed sitting in the garden or swimming in the pool.

However, I loved everything else about the villa and am sure we will return.
Thanks.
Owner's Response: I really do appreciate guests writing reviews. So many guests tell me how wonderful the property is and are really impressed with the location but do not often take the time to write and post the review online.

As the guest stated the property is deceptive in that it is much bigger than it appears in the online photos and though not specifically mentioned by this guest the villa and pool are situated in wonderfully landscaped gardens.

We are frequently complemented on our villa manager regarding his willingness to take the time to provide information on things to do and places to go, restaurants to visit
and our housekeeper regarding the cleanliness of the villa and the ability to provide
Regarding the barking dogs, we are attempting to address this situation with the Sunset Crest Property Association and I am hopeful that I will be able to have this addressed in the near future

Love at first sight

Review Submitted: June 7, 2011 Date of Stay: June 2011
The warm reception we received from Louis the Manager set the scene for a one of the best vacations we have had in a long time.
We always stayed in Hotels but chose a Villa this time.Villa Bliss is just that.. blissful.This villa's size layout and decor was perfect, fitting the description.
Waking up to our own private pool and breakfast on the patio is holidaymakers heaven.
The villa is within walking distance to some of the best places to eat,shop and the beach....
The garden is beautiful, lots of Heliconias and Bourgainviia in bloom.
Really a great place to stay and be safe in Barbados as special attention is payed to security.
Go enjoy Villa Bliss today.

It was Delightful

Review Submitted: May 1, 2011 Date of Stay: March 2011
Connie and I and our guests were delighted with Bliss Villa. It was just as advertised and Louis and Brenda did their jobs perfectly. Louis is very knowledgeable about the island and regaled us for more than an hour answering our questions. The villa and especially the pool are just delightful
