Amazing Place

Thrilled to be your guests Montreal, Canada
Review Submitted: November 22, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
We found this beautiful property in Barbados that was clean, well maintained, well equipped, very comfortable and a great deal. There was nothing we lacked. Right on the water, gorgeous breezes, no bugs, and 3 different beaches to choose from at our door step. We did our swimming on one beach and our tanning on another. There is also a beautiful resort beach close by, if you so choose. The owner had told us we would have 2 of the beaches to ourselves most of the time and we did. To find a place anywhere on this earth that it is just you on these gorgeous beaches with white powdery sand, turquoise sea, endless sky with the cliffs embracing you, we felt truly privileged. We would spend amazing days on these beaches, enjoyed evenings dining out or cooking at the villa and ending our nights on the balcony outside the bedroom under a sky with thousands of stars, tropical breeze and sounds of the surf. We slept like babies.
The location of the villa was great. We felt very safe. Close and easy to get everywhere we chose to go. We had fun driving around the island in an open air jeep. We got some great tips from the owner prior to leaving on exploring the island, sites to see, restaurants, grocery stores, you name it. The caretaker and handyman were very nice and helpful and just a phone call away if we needed anything or had any questions. We returned home feeling great. Rested, tanned and rejuvenated. I was online looking up the property again, as we are already trying to figure out when we can return. We have so many fond memories of our holiday and loved the villa. I kind of feel like one of the other reviewers in that I am giving away a great secret destination. But it is the least I can do, as one can tell the owner has given 150% in making this villa an amazing place to spend a holiday. And we want to show our appreciation and thanks. We look forward to our next visit.

Wonderful Vacation!

Review Submitted: November 11, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
My daughter and I spent 9 wonderful days at this villa. It was even better than described. The house is beautiful, with so much room. The kitchen was complete with all things needed to prepare meals, i.e., pots, pans and utensils. The outside is even more gorgeous with tables, chairs and loungers both upstairs and downstairs. You have to walk a few steps to get down to the beach. It was great. It's not meant for people who are not great swimmers, but to have the waves wash over you is just wonderful. Great place for sunbathing also. You can walk down the beach to a resort for more quiet swimming where the waves are not quite so fierce. The owner helped us with all our plans and questions before we left. You need to rent a car or call a taxi if you are planning on venturing out. Barbados is like a big city, but this villa is nicely secluded with just 3 other homes down the block. You can't see or hear anyone unless you want to. We took tourist buses leaving from the resort down the way to take tours and enjoy the nightlife. We drove there. The bus picked us up and dropped us off. We drove back to the villa. Just a short drive. It was very hot and humid while we were there, but the ceiling fans in every room and oceans breezes helped a lot. I usually won't stay in a place with no air conditioning but the breeze was just so good we both slept wonderful at night. We did most of our grocery shopping at a mall which was only about a 10-minute drive. I hope everyone enjoys there stay there. You will not be disappointed. Hope to read your reviews also.

Unforgettable

Rainydaze Jackson, NJ
Review Submitted: October 28, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
I do not know where to start this review! This Villa met and exceeded all of my expectations! It was comfortable, clean, safe, in a perfect location, kitchen did not lack anything, decor was perfect, spacious, lots of closet space w/hangers, caretaker on property was helpful when needed, security/alarm system, loved the keyless entry system (no keys to lose!), wonderful ocean breezes, plush grass in backyard surrounded by fencing, auto night lighting system, unforgettable sunrises on upper deck. Villa is on a street with only 4 other properties so it is quiet. The owner takes tremendous care and pride in the villa and it shows in her decorating in all 3 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms and living and kitchen space. More than enough utensils and dinnerware. The entryway to the villa is thriving with native flowers and a banana tree. Villa is also located close to the Crane for dinners or the beach. There is a beach within 1 block walking distance that we used every day and virtually had it to ourselves. Villa is also close to Grantley Adams Inter. AP and many beaches. St. Philip parish is a good location for everything and we feel had the prettiest of beaches. If you are looking for comfort, relaxation, safe, close to activities and just a good at home feeling, this is the villa for you. On a scale of 1-10, this villa is a 12!! Also the owner was extremely helpful in all our planning. Every question we had was answered quicky and thoroughly. This was a big plus for me as we had never been to Barbados and had many questions. Owner even was helpful with info on flights and car rentals. Do not be afraid to rent a car so you can really see the true Barbados! Your visit to this villa and Barbados will have you aching to return - trust me on this one! You will return home with many wonderful experiences and memories. I am sure there are things I missed because everything is just fantastic but I hope this review has been helpful.

A Slice of Heaven

Jay & Colleen & family San Francisco Bay Area
Review Submitted: May 28, 2008 Date of Stay: December 2007
"My husband and I spent the Christmas and New Year's Holiday with our 3 young children at this beautiful property.
This was our 1st travel experience to a home rather than a hotel - and it exceeded our expectations on every level.
The upper decks allowed my husband and I to read and sun ourselves while the children were napping. The kitchen was so well equipped that we were able to prepare/cook a full American turkey dinner and all the trimmings for the holidays.
The ocean views are spectacular! We enjoyed falling asleep to the tranquil sounds of the waves hitting the cliffs and loved the breeze. What a delight - no bugs/no flying insects! The children loved watching the local fisherman on the cliffs and had a ball playing soccer in the picket fenced yard.
The caretaker was wonderful and most helpful to our family. We felt very safe. At dusk the outdoor lighting automatically illuminates the property - it is quite pretty.
We loved exploring the island.
This villa felt like our home away from home and we look forward to returning. "

Excellent Choice! This is a must to rent!

4 B's Connecticut, USA
Review Submitted: May 22, 2008 Date of Stay: February 2007
I have rented this property twice for family holidays with my four children. When I was contacted recently by the owner to write a review I did not want to do it, as I did not want to share my secret destination with the world! In all fairness though, I must tell you you would never be disappointed with this property, no matter what your ages are. This property has something for everyone. Incredible views, comfortable beds and soft linens, well equipped, a fenced in yard for the kids, and easy access to a beautiful private beach. This truely is an incredible find and I would highly recommend it, but please don't take my weeks from me!

We found Paradise !!!

M&K new york city usa
Review Submitted: May 21, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
So many choices of rentals when we were searching, it was all a bit confusing. We feel so fortunate and lucky to have come upon this incredible vacation rental. We just returned from a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. The views from the moment you wake are beyond words. The house and decks were lovely and most comfortable. We loved the privacy and unspoiled beauty of the beach right below the house. We just had a magnificent stay and can't wait to return to stay again and hopefully longer next time. The owner was so helpful in all our questions and gave us great information. This house and location is something you dream about. Then you wake up and realize it is real. And you just feel so lucky and so blessed to be there.

Fabulous House

Tsala Hampshire, England
Review Submitted: May 14, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
We have just returned from staying at this property and had such a superb time. The location is breathtaking, undoubtably the best location for a very relaxing holiday. The upper and lower decks are ideal for eating and sipping cocktails with the sound of the waves breaking the the background. Highly recommended. The owner of the property is so informative and assisted us with every query promptly. We would definitely return.
