We loved our stay. Home was impeccably clean, amenities were great. The location is very good, buses run frequently to take you into town. Lots to do nearby, great beaches nearby. Just a great residence.

Nice place. Clean and comfortable

This townhouse was nice, safe, and clean. The private pool was great. It is about a 15 to 20 minute walk along a busy road to the closest beach, and Holetown is about 25 minute walk. We didn’t rent a car (the driving on the left thing) and relied on taxis, friends, walking, or the Pick Up Barbados app to get around. There is a small grocery store (Ryan’s Happy Place) about a 5 minute walk away that you can get essentials during your visit.

Great villa

The villa itself is brilliant! The property is huge and had everything we needed for our two week honeymoon in Barbados. It was an excellent base for us to see the island and there was a large parking space right outside the villa for our hire car. It is well stocked with utensils etc., there is a large Massey supermarket a short drive away and it is a short walk to local restaurants and Holetown. However we were disappointed with BSL and their communication. The number provided to contact them would ring out and they were slow to reply to emails. Two men turned up at the back gate and said they were there to fix a new gate. This wasn’t communicated to us as guests and when we finally got through to BSL they weren’t very apologetic. We had told BSL we were travelling for our honeymoon so for them not to acknowledge this in any way and to then organise for work to be completed in the villa on our first full day in the property was disappointing. We were also told it would take 30 minutes for the work to be completed and took nearly 2 hours. One thing to note is the gardens of the neighbouring villas are very close together and it is unfortunate if you get noisy neighbours but obviously this just your luck. The road in and out of the villa is bumpy at the moment but if you take your time it is totally fine - could do with better lighting for evenings but I imagine it will all improve when the construction work is finished and this didn’t bother us.

Nice property in the middle of several construction zones. Walking anywhere was a chore. Muddy streets and few sidewalks. Management company unresponsive to requests -dishwasher inoperative entire stay. Still no accounting of security deposit. Would not would not stay here again.

Fantastic vacation spot!

The property is exactly as the photos show on the VRBO site - I don't think the photos are modified in any way. The location is great - less than 5 minutes' drive from Holetown and close to a lot of great restaurants. The rooms are kept spotless and we found all the amenities we need. A private washer and driver is so nice to have in a tropical place. The bedrooms are nicely air-conditioned and extremely comfortable to sleep in. The living room is huge. I think the place can accommodate a lot more than a couple comfortably. The garden is well maintained. I see hummingbirds coming to drink at the flowers every single day and saw a green monkey walking on the fence on the day we arrived. The property manager, Kerrie, is fantastic - very friendly and responsive. We had a few requests to her, including an unusual request for a heavier comforter, which she addressed very efficiently and timely. We cannot thank her enough. The rental office also assigned us a concierge, Taunia. She was great in helping us secure a rental vehicle (hard to get during high season) and provided really good advice on destinations and restaurants. All in all, thank you for giving us a fabulous place to stay! We will be back!

For the price it was ideal. Mosquitos were an issue though. Loved the monkeys when they dropped in.

Beautiful property but

Property was absolutely gorgeous. However the house had so many mosquitoes. I was bitten so badly I had a reaction. Woke up day after arrival with eye swollen from mosquito bite. I feel House should have been fogged before guests arrive.

Lots of choice - poolside or a short drive to seaside

Great place to relax and enjoy time with friends and family. A little too far to walk to the beach, however, it’s just a short drive. Great restaurants a few minutes drive away also. The small plunge pool is handy and the larger complex pool is lovely. The property is well kept and it is in a quiet, peaceful, safe neighbourhood, where the monkeys roam freely and can be seen in the early morning (7:30-8:00). Townhome amenities are ok, could be stocked with extra little things for guests. ie: beach chairs, water toys, cards, etc. Housekeeping comes at random times and not often, but not really a big deal except on check-out day. We would recommend this place to our friends and family. We love Barbados (that was our 15th trip) and will return again within the year.

A lovely property but a car is essential.

We arrived to find the kitchen empty so no tea coffee sugar salt pepper etc. Which is unusual for a quality rental. We were not told a car is essential as the beach is 15 minutes away and the nearest shop 15 minute drive. So rent a car at the airport and shop before you arrive! Sadly the owner has not renewed beach club membership which we think is essential for a beach holiday. We paid our way on the beach and had a lovely holiday with our friends also staying at porter’s gate who had club membership included in the rental charge.

This property is gorgeous! The staff is very welcoming and efficient! Thanks Shain, Kerrie & Grace!

My family loved the privacy of this property. With gated access and a lockbox for the keys, it made us feel quite secure. The home is very nicely decorated with local artwork and pretty furniture. It was super clean, spacious and had all the amenities of a modern home. We loved that it was close to the beach, there was a bus stop nearby and plenty of native fruit trees along the way. Our boys loved the private pool. It was great to be able to come home, wash off the beach sand, cool off and relax in the pool. We will definitely be back and will hopefully be welcome to stay at this property again. Thank you for opening your home to us!
