SPECTACULAR VILLA with Electronic Gates, Private Pool and Tropical Gardens

A beautiful 3 bedroom luxury villa with electronic gates and lush tropical gardens surrounding a private pool with integral seating for spa-jet massages. The Golden Palm villa has a sun-deck with sun-loungers for cooling and relaxing sun-kissed bodies, as well as a covered poolside terrace, equipped with barbecue and patio equipment perfect for all-fresco dining.

The Golden Palm gets its name from the beautiful palm trees located in the mature tropical garden with sprinkler irrigation system. The covered terrace leads into a spacious, open plan, living area with SMART TV, DVD player and stereo ipod deck for unwinding. The luxury kitchen and dining area is equipped with all mod-cons including coffee-maker and crockery for fine dining.

The property has 3 beautiful large double bedrooms all with air conditioning: the master bedroom has its own en-suite bathroom, whilst the other two bedrooms share the main bathroom. All bedrooms are equipped with built-in wardrobes.

The master bedroom has a king-sized bed, bedroom 2 has a double bed whilst bedroom 3 has twin beds which can be converted to a king size bed upon request.

Situated in the popular parish of St. George, we benefit from a beautiful countryside location, close to local attractions including Orchid World and the historic Gun Hill signal station with panoramic views of almost the entire island! Close to local shops and bars and approx. 15 min drive to the Barbados Golf Club and coast with white sandy beaches, surrounded by the beautiful waters of the Caribbean Sea. There is plenty to see and do, and for those days out at the beach, picnic equipment is available.

Perfect for couples and families, the property is family-friendly, equipped with travel cot and high-chair for younger guests. A beautiful, unique location, easily accessible to the sights and the sea - your perfect villa.

Beautiful house. 100% as advertised. Pool is lovely. Up on the hill. You need to get a hire car. Not for people who just lie on the beach all day because you have to drive everywhere. But if you know Barbados and want a perfect stay. This is the place.

Inland Barbados is a Vibe!
We had a wonderful stay at Golden Palm. It’s central location was a great base from which to explore the island. We enjoyed coming back to the peace and quiet away from the hotels and tourist spots on the west and south coasts. Inland Barbados is so beautiful and this property gives you the opportunity to see it daily. The living areas are comfortable and air con in the bedrooms was very welcome! As others have said the garden and pool are terrific- it’s a good size for a family and great for swimming, dipping or lazing on a lilo! Will never forget walking out to the sound of the birds on the first morning of our trip…garden gets good sun all day. The kitchen is well equipped, place is clean and a good size generally. In a quiet residential neighbourhood where we felt safe and secure. The property is in need of a bit of cosmetic TLC here and there but nothing that impacted our visit. The Welcome Pack was super useful and big up the property manager Juliet - she’s a real star and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. Vrbo hosts also very responsive in lead up to the booking. View from the master en suite bathroom was my favourite, especially if you’re lucky enough to catch a sunset whilst showering! The wifi and cable TV worked well, so teen daughter kept happy. Car is essential. We were very happy with our choice to stay here as of course accommodation can make or break a holiday. Golden Palm was definitely a make!

Very good value Villa
The villa was fine, a few things were not working when we arrived which was frustrating but most were fixed during our stay. The house was clean and comfortable with some areas in need of a little tlc but you really can't fault it for the price. Location is OK about 25 mins from the coast the thing that is not mentioned is the traffic, if you are returning from Speightstown/Holetown area between 4-6pm allow about an extra hour as the traffic is terrible. We very much enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful setting
We had such an amazingly relaxed time at the villa. We were met by Juliette and Franklyn at the property - who were just delightful. They were so accommodating and welcoming. Certainly the best property managers we’ve ever dealt with. The pool is great and my family never wanted to leave! The beaches are a must and Fish Fry was so worth experiencing. We will certainly be back in Barbados. It’s so worth the flight!

Three spacious bedrooms with good air conditioning and plenty of storage. Large open plan downstairs with comfortable seating in the lounge, dining area to easily accommodate six and a kitchen with everything you could need. Excellent outdoor secure space for lounging, barbecuing and cooling off in the pool. Were met at the Villa by Juliet, the property manager, who was very helpful and friendly. A great central base from which to tour the whole of the island.

Lovely Property, Great Stay
Lovely house in rural Barbados, really nice, deep pool for cooling off in, comfy beds and everything (literally everything) you need for cooking/entertaining with a large cable TV selection to boot. We had a couple of problems that were swiftly dealt with by Juliette and Franklin (the house management company) and the communication with Peter and Donna in the UK was always prompt, the welcome pack they send with all the info in is great! Very highly recommended, lovely stay. Try and pop down to Cheers Bar for a game of pool with the locals, really really friendly people.

Central location, great facilities
Had a great 9 nights in this centrally located villa. With a car, it is ideal to explore the whole island, but without, would be remote as it is some 20 minutes from any beach. Facilities are excellent, with all modern amenities to hand, including a family pool. Residential area, with secure feel, although the local guard dogs can be a pain at unsocialable hours.

Beautiful, spacious and well equipped villa in a quiet, friendly central location.
We abslutely loved our stay at Golden Palms. This is a lovely, spacious, open-plan villa, with a light, airy feel. Even as a family of 6, we didn't feel overcrowded here. The location was great - being inland gave us a nice insight into local village life, and we weren't more than 30 mins away by car from any destination on the isalnd. The beds were very comfortable, and we all slept well, lulled by the gentle sounds of the caribbean (crickets, or frogs?). The property is secure and very well maintained. There is a lovely pool to relax in after a hard day exploring the island, and if you're an early riser there was a family of green monkeys that regularly wondered into the garden attracted by the mangos. We liked to walk into the village to buy eggs from a neighbour, or use the local shop. My husband enjoyed the odd beer or game of pool at the local bar, everyone was really friendly. The kitchen was very well equipped, with everything you could possibly need to cook well, including a huge fridge freezer for storing food. The addition of good laundry equiptment was also invaluable with four children. We really couldn't fault the villa. The owners (Peter and Donna), provided us with lots of information and were hugely helpful. If we return to Barbados, we would absolutely return to this villa, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to others.

Property has everything you need. Home away from home. The management company was fantastic. Even though this property isn’t on the beach, we went almost every day, and was happy to return to a quiet place to wind down. I can’t say enough good things about our stay here

Spacious, well equipped villa with great pool and gorgeous garden
From the moment of booking the villa to the moment of checking out, everything that was within the control of the owners Peter and Donna was managed really efficiently and we were not left disappointed with any aspect of the holiday. Yes, there are dogs that bark uncontrollably at times but it’s infrequent and not incessant noise, and the villa is in land so it’s a fair old schlep to some of the beaches, but that shouldn’t detract from the villa. However, the pool and garden are great for just doing nothing, so after you’ve stocked up at a local supermarket and fish monger, just open a cold one, throw some amazing fresh tuna or flying fish on the bbq and enjoy. We also enjoyed the delights of some Barbadian food, home cooked by chef Pauline; Jason at Bryce rentals provided us with an excellent car rental deal and Juliet was on hand to help us out with any additional requests. All in all a most exceptional introduction to the delights of Barbados.

Best holiday ever
The house was really really lovely, we had the best time. The rooms were very clean and the garden was really beautiful. A brilliant idea that beach towels, noodles, beach chairs were provided, we used them every day! Phillip and Juliet were just the loveliest people so helpful, engaging and we all loved them very much. We really enjoyed the 'wildlife' of big toads, fireflies, hummingbirds, cats, monkeys, big snails, barbadian green finches, blackbirds; all an added bonus. We would come back in a heartbeat, thank you so so much

Beautiful Barbados
Arrived at airport in the evening and Jason met us with our car rental. Followed him to the villa and soon after, Juliet arrived. She was so informative and stayed quite a while with us. The villa was great, we had snails, frogs, sparrow and a kitty that visited regularly. It is centrally located and once you get your sense of direction, it is quite easy to travel about. The villa had everything you needed to make yourself at home. One problem, when I would use the frying pan on the stove, the smoke detector would go off. So I would just let my husband sit there with a towel and wave the towel over it. Also, it would be great if one of the lights in the dining room was changed to a ceiling fan and light combo. It would get a little warm in there after cooking. However, we ate outside most of the time. It was so nice to get up and have tea out by the pool and the privacy is terrific. Neighbors are all very nice: however, no one tells their dogs to be quiet, so they bark morning, noon and night. Booking with Peter and Donna was quite easy and we can't thank them enough for renting the villa to us. P.S. There is so much to see and enjoy in Barbados, you just have to go!

Stylish, clean, minimalist and great location
We stayed for three weeks in August /September and had a wonderful time. Property was clean and tidy with minimalist theme which encourages relaxation. Outside is an ideal sized swimming pool which is cleaned weekly, gardens maintained fortnightly and all enclosed with security gates for peace of mind. The estate the property is on is a highly sought-after area in St George so all clean, tidy and pleasant neighbours. As others have mentioned the noise made by the neighbours dogs is, really, the only gripe. The house is equipped with full kitchenware and domestic tools to help you stay comfortable in this, your home from home. We were thoroughly pleased with our choice of accommodation for this holiday and will consider for future trips. We would also recommend for others with a family intending to stay in Barbados. For us we had four adults and a toddler and we all loved it. Thank you to the owners and the property maintenance team for this property. Xxx

very clean, exactly as seen in photos. All amenities working perfectly
This was our third time travelling to the beautiful island of Barbados. However we bought my cousin, brother and their partners this time for their first experience. The villa was perfect for this! There was plenty of space, it was very clean and Juliette was so helpful the entire time. We were expecting a storm on the Tuesday of our stay and Peter called to make sure everything was okay. We also had a delayed flight and Juliette phoned us first thing to inform us which meant we were able to organise ourselves rather than arriving at the airport and finding this information out. We had a wonderful time in the pool and the garden is a definite sun spot. There were a lot of dogs in the area barking but we are aware this is completely out of the owners control. Overall it is a wonderful villa with plenty of space and very clean. I am very pleased that my family had their first experience of Barbados at this villa and I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Lovely Villa, clean and comfortable, well equiped with the added bonus of the large pool.
Thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay at Golden Palm Villa. A lovely, relaxing retreat away from the busy tourist areas but easily within 10 to 20 minutes drive of all the major attractions on the island. The Villa has the added advantage of a welcoming pool; a great place to escape the heat. A car is essential.
