This is a lovely apartment; the area was so quiet and peaceful. The inside was beautifully decorated, room cozy and clean and the added surprise was that the kitchen was well equipped for a great stay.
Recommending it to my friends for their Cropover stay.

Great place to stay. Close to beach, stores and restaurants. Would definitely come back. The main road to the beach has no sidewalk in places. Could be an issue for some, especially at night. Recommend a taxi at night if you don’t rent a car. Unit is very clean, well equipped and quiet.
It is a very quiet and peaceful place, and was perfect for our requirements.
Our hostess was very welcoming and meticulous about providing a good environment for us.
While we only spent 5 nights, we have to say it was the perfect place for us and highly recommend this apartment for anyone looking to stay for a much longer time. The hosts are kind and considerate people who were helpful and friendly in making sure we were comfortable. Thank you for your hospitality!
Suited us down to the ground, quiet, lovely shaded area for morning coffee, host very helpful; walk back didn’t bother us but lack of any pavement won’t suit some.
We loved our stay in Barbados! This apartment was the perfect location on the west side. Certainly could have walked to the beach, mall, grocery store, etc but ideally needed a car to see the island. REALLY LOVED seeing the troupe of monkeys passing by several times a day! Sonia and Ian were the perfect host, made us feel welcome and comfortable! We'll be back!

I definitely would stay there again and highly recommend it to anyone.
Very nice and clean apartment. Easy to communicate with Sonia when needed. She had a few items for us when we got there, god bless her! We kept in shape by walking back and forth to the beach.

This property is very clean and situated in a beautiful neighborhood. However, transportation is a must OR plan for a hired vehicle (Taxi, etc).
The hosts are very accommodating and wonderful a couple. Sonia (owner) made sure I had everything to my comfort and would check in periodically to ask if I needed anything. I felt at home and slept well.
I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend booking this property.
Apartment was just what we needed. Quiet, safe neighborhood with all the necessary amenities. Owners were great to work with - very hands off, but able to answer all questions when needed. Would stay here again.
The lovely spacious apartment with patio in the garden was quiet and private yet it was good to know Sonia and Ian were just next door. The bed, shower and kitchen were all great, as was the AC.
I liked the location close to Holetown, but although I am a good walker I tried to avoid the walk down the winding hill in the busy traffic and would have a car next time. I appreciated the welcome and kindnesses. Thank you!
Sonia and Ian were wonderful hosts, very kind and helpful. The apartment was immaculately clean, communication was great, and the location was perfect for exploring the island. Thank you so much for hosting me in your beautiful home.
I would recommend booking a hire car as the road into Holetown has no pavement, there are a few blind corners and cars can travel quite fast. I enjoy walking and it’s only 10mins, but having stubbornly done it once I agreed with Sonia’s recommendation to drive the short distance instead!
Check in was quick and efficient.Apartment spacious well equipped and comfortable, all as advertised. Safe , quiet neighbourhood. Strong Wi-Fi . Sonia & Ian available by WhatsApp but not intrusive. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to return
Smooth sailing all the way. Quiet neighborhood, lovely hosts who were very easy to reach for anything. We interacted primarily with Sonia.
All as advertised. Great location, strong wifi. Super convenient for easily accessing west coast beaches and establishments. Highly recommend!
Me and my mom stayed for 4 nights after a cruise. The apartment is located in a beautiful house with a garden in a nice, sae and quiet neighborhood. Spacious, with elegant decor, very clean and with all necessary amenities. Refrigerator, microwave, washing machine, ac are all new. The bathroom is also a good size with very good water pressure. It takes me about 7 minutes walk to the Limegrove Lifestyle Center, MS supermarket and another 5 minutes to the beach.
Sonia and Ian are very friendly, helpful and attentive. Ian met us at the port and took us to the airport on the last day. And Sonia was so kind that she even did some shopping for me.
I can only highly recommend this property if you are looking for something beautiful and affordable in Holetown.

Ian showed around the apartment and wished us a pleasant stay.
We turned in exhausted after our long flight and four hour time difference,. But the bed was so hard, we couldn’t sleep. We tried all angles,
The following day we told Sonia that it was so uncomfortable and she said no-one had ever complained. We asked for a mattress topper at least. We made up the other bed with both counterpanes under the bottom sheet, but it was just as hard. We spent two nights on this before there was a knock on the intervening door - Sonia bought in a smaller mattress and put it on top of the hard one.l. As the replacement mattress was rolling around on top of the original, we removed the original to the spare room. Only to find the it had been on the bed upside down. Further investigation found the mattress was dated 1990 and had a huge stain in the middle of the upper side. The mattress in the second bedroom was also upside down.
The sofa and chair cushions in the lounge were also very worn to the extent that we needed to double them up to prevent sitting on the wooden frames below.
The patio was fine, but had not the garden outlook we expected from the description, but was cramped into the corner of the plot, looking onto a breeze block wall and next doors tatty chain link fence. The drains from the main house were just by this patio, and let by odours quite frequently.
The original VRBO description of timing from Halcyon Heights to the beach was claimed to be 5-7 minutes walk (which has now been changed on the description from 10 - 15 minutes).
The actual mileage from the property to the beach is 1.1 kilometre and not 0.6 kilometre as described on the VRBO website.
This road has hardly any sidewalks and is extremely dangerous to walk in the daylight - so after dark absolutely a no no. Therefore we had to hire a car for the whole of the month’s period we were there.
When talking to Sonia about the main garden with its mango trees, she told us she had lived there for 20 years.
To sum up, the description of this property needs to be wholly reviewed. We spent a lot of money for a very disappointing inadequate property, and had to spend further on a car for the whole period. We are so out of pocket and think VRBO ought to check further on prop

Excellent property and lovely hosts. I would recommend this to short stay visitors.
Communication was great. The apartment was clean and bright. The neighborhood is lovely. If you do not have a car there is a fifteen minute walk to the main road, which was good exercise for us. The main road has all shopping you need. Thanks Sonia and Ian , we enjoyed our stay.
The perfect, conveniently-located bolt hole in paradise
We had a wonderful time. Sonia and Ian were fabulous, friendly hosts and made us feel very welcome, while also being very respectful of our privacy. Communication was excellent, as was collection from the airport. The flat is in a great, safe location. The kitchen and laundry facilities are very well maintained and new. The air on was also super powerful. We felt very welcome and well looked after. Seriously, what more could you ask for?
