Loved the close proximity to the beach/ocean. Great views of the sunsets and watching the cruise liners coming to port nearby. Dated and worn interior conditions and deferred maintenance of the exterior and landscaping is evident.

Beach house
We would stay here again The host was great to deal with, check in and check out were flawless Pool was clean and property amenities were as advertised Location to the beach was incredible - beach was one of nicest and cleanest that we visited on the island Location in Barbados is fine - we had a car so we were able to travel everywhere quick and easy. If you wanted to go to a restaurant or bar and drink you would need to taxi or bus as it is a bit away from the touristy areas (which was great for the nice quiet beach but not great for eating / drinking / shopping) There is a Rum bar / distillery only a 4-5 minute walk on the beach which ahd good food and drinks - we tried Rascals but they closed at 6pm so were unable to eat there The suite we stayed in was pretty clean, the bed was very comfortable, everything worked but the appliances could use a refresh as they are older Overall a very pleasant stay and would recommend Walking out your door on to the perfect beach was worth the stay itself

Perfect quiet spot right on the beach
Loved our stay here. The 1 bed apartment was spacious with a large kitchen, living area, and a big patio. The grounds included a pool with nice gardens providing lots of shade. The location right on a long sandy swimmable beach was fantastic. Mario was on site regularly, or easily reachable, to answer questions and assist with anything needed. Very happy with our stay here and would stay here again!

Great location for spacious beachfront apartment
I stayed here from Christmas 2023 to New Year’s Day 2024. Check in was easy and Mario kindly stocked the kitchen before my arrival. The place is quite spacious and clean. It could use some updates because it is showing a lot of wear & tear. As a woman traveling alone, I felt very safe and the neighbors we are very kind and friendly. Also, the kitchen could use a bottle/wine opener. I would definitely return. The beach is amazing too!

Great place to stay!
We really enjoyed our stay at this location & would definitely consider returning. The beach in front of the property is a lovely sandy beach which was usually always quiet. Our unit could have used some freshening up and more supplies in the kitchen, particularly since we were there 3 weeks but the bed was comfortable and the unit was clean. Light cleaning was provided twice a week. Rose was very accommodating any time we had any concerns or questions. She also drove us over to the local grocery store upon our arrival (which we very much appreciated) but otherwise it was approx a 15 min walk to get to the near by store. We visited the Cheapside Market and nearby fish market twice during our stay which gave us access to fresh local fish and produce. Rascals is the only restaurant within walking distance but we also utilized a restaurant delivery service (Hopscotch) several times. Sent from my iPad

This property was comfortable and felt secure. It has an amazing veiw of the beach just beyond the wall. The trees in the yard makes it feel so relaxing offering shade from the sun when by the pool, the room itself was nice, very well furnished. I cant wait to stay there again.

Location, location, location
Perfect location, clean apartment, the host was very nice. Spectacular beach right outside the back gate, nice pool. We will definitely stay again. The ONLY issue is the neighbors just got obnoxious dogs that bark all night. ***** The host stated (and I believe her) that she is going to fix the issue very soon **** This is the only reason this isn't a 5 star review. Ask her about the dog situation, if it's fixed? 5-stars, with no doubt.

Needs Improvement......Great Potential
We didn’t really feel safe at this location. First, the host didn’t communicate via HomeAway per safety policy. Second, the host wasn’t at the house when we arrived (because of their communication style) and while we waited, their family members showed without introducing themselves and entered the house...weird. Third, there are bars on the windows which I don’t recall are shown in the photos of the place. Fourth, she never told us that the pool boys nor the gardener were going to show up which gave us a scare when we walked in the gated area and saw some random guy in the plants. There was also fungus in the bathtub, cockroach on the floor, and the beach towels (in a beach house) were nasty. The only good parts of this place was the amazing location on the beach and the restaurants/activities close by.

Great beach!
If you just want a simple apartment right on a great calm-water beach away from crowds and bars, then this is a great choice. Comfortable and clean. Great AC. The owner is very nice and helpful. We stayed three nights in March, bought groceries at the supermarket 3/4 miles away and cooked in. You are in a residential neighborhood, so it's a short drive to decent restaurants for dining. A beach umbrella would have been handy, but we pulled our chairs under a palm tree.

Just what I needed - a relaxing holiday!
The place was what I expected. You get value for what you pay. Yes it is a bit rough around the edges (kitchen) but it was clean, quiet and comfortable. It is right on the beach as described and the pictures are completely accurate. The bed was excellent. The air-conditioning (that I only used at night) was extremely quiet. The pool is as pictured and although described 'shared', it is very rarely occupied and only shared with the other tenants in the building. The internet is stable and high speed. Easily able to watch Netflix. You do need a car (or a taxi) if you plan to eat out. Yes there is a huge grocery store a 5 minute walk away but I would suspect that many on vacation like to eat out occasionally. There is one small restaurant on the beach 5 minutes away but the menu is limited and the food so/so. As others have commented, you could never meet a nicer person than Rose. Nothing is ever a problem and she constantly goes out of her way to make sure your stay is the best it could possibly be. I have rented apartments in many parts of the world and never have I encountered such a personable owner. She just makes your vacation that much better.

Thank You, Rose
On short notice you came through for us with a clean, confortable, nicely decorated place for us to enjoy our time in Barbados. Our rental was an excellent value for the cost we paid. You did more than anyone would expect to see that we had everything we needed. Thanks you, so much. Bill and Betty
