Calm, Restful, SupportedIf I could give more stars for owner and on site staff communications and support, I would love to. Too complicated to explain but on 2 occasions prior to our holiday our plans were compromised for reasons outside our control and nothing to do with the owner. However, on both occasions, Tinaâs communications were not only very responsive but went way beyond what we could have hoped for or expected and, itâs no exaggeration to say, rescued our special family Christmas vacation for which we will forever be grateful. Also, on the day of check in our arrangements were again upended for unforeseen circumstances and Tricia and Kay, onsite, also went out of their way to assist us.Villa Alcoutri itself is calm, restful, homely and bright. Just what we needed. Beautifully clean and comfortable, great AC throughout, the villa has every facility and accessory anyone would need. The beach club is an amazing bonus too. It is walkable to all the nearby facilities as other reviewers state. Though as British septogenarians with a few health conditions, not used to temperatures in the high 20âs and 30âs the little car we hired was just perfect to tootle around the local area. The guest handbook at the villa is also packed full of useful and very interesting information about the area and the island.We are very happy to recommend not only Villa Alcoutri but also particularly the owner, the booking process and especially communications.
Our adult sons and their partners stayed here during our family holiday trip to Barbados this year and had a great time! It's in a perfect location, close to beaches, shopping, and restaurants, all in a wonderful relaxed neighbourhood. A clean and organized space with a thoughtful layout. The host was very responsive throughout.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Alcoutri. It was perfect for us.We are a couple in our early 70s and we have stayed in the Sunset Crest/Holetown area of Barbados many times since 1994. The photos on VRBO are very accurate and Villa Alcoutri suited us down to the ground. We felt very safe and at home in the villa which is in a quiet location at the end of a small cul-de-sac. We slept so well in the comfortable bed.The villa was very clean when we arrived. Kay, the housekeeper came to clean the villa twice during our 18 night stay. She is a very friendly, lovely person. We hired a car for the majority of our stay as we like to visit our favourite places around the island. If you don't want to hire a car, you can catch buses or taxis which are readily available. The beach, The Beach Club with its pool and other facilities, Limegrove Shopping Mall, bars, restaurants and other amenities - including Massy Supermarket, Clifton Market and a couple of mini markets - are all within walking distance.Prior to our holiday, Tina was very helpful and friendly and she replied to our messages promptly.Tricia, the villa manager met us at the villa on arrival and she showed us around. She responded to any queries that we had during our stay in a friendly and efficient manner.We would like to stay at Villa Alcoutri again at some point. We will certainly recommend it to our family and friends.Many thanks to everyone for ensuring that our stay was such a happy one.
The property was all that they say it is. The location is fabulous with easy access to the beach, beach club, wonderful restaurants and shopping, all within walking distance. I would definitely stay there again!
We have stayed multiple times within the Sunset Crest area in a variety of villas depending on our group size with mixed levels of satisfaction. However, Tinaâs villa exceeded all our expectations. I have never stayed in such a clean villa. Kaye the housekeeper has very high standards and is a truly lovely person. The images on the site accurately describe the property. You can walk everywhere. We managed and are 70 plus so very easy access to shops, beach and restaurants. Taxis easily available. Lots of information about the local area in the villa. Tricia the local manager was always on hand if needed and very responsive.The outside area is small but again that is shown on the pictures and it is landscaped very cleverly with trees and flowers. The plunge pool was great but a bit difficult for us to get in and out but great for families to cool down in. Very very comfortable beds.This villa represents excellent value compared to many properties we have stayed in.We loved our stay and would recommend unreservedly.We used the beach club again great addition included within the price.
If you are looking for a quiet and serene place to enjoy paradise, this is the perfect spot. The deck surrounded by greenery lets you enjoy the outdoors and dip in the plunge pool. Close to pool and beach! Our host Tina was very responsive and everything was wonderful!walk walk to the beach
This is the 2nd time we have stayed here and again we had a fabulous time, itâs a lovely quiet location which we love. Tricia the property manager is always on hand if you have any questions/problems.
The property is also spotlessly clean
And we would definitely return
My wife and I stayed three weeks at Tina's lovely residence and had a wonderful time.
It's in a quiet location which is only minutes from the shops in Holetown and the beautiful West Coast beach.
Booking was very easy and Tina was really kind and helpful.
The villa itself is extremely well-appointed with everything one could need for an enjoyable stay.
A special mention should go to the fact that there are individual air-con units in each room. If you've ever stayed, as we have, in tropical properties where only one room has air-con, then you'll appreciate just how splendid this is.
Trisha, the property manager, was so very helpful and answered any questions we had. Likewise the lady who kept the villa immaculately clean.
I have no hesitation in recommending this property to anyone wanting somewhere lovely to stay in beautiful Barbados.
We really enjoyed our stay at this villa.
However, we were concerned about the security.
No security cameras, hedges, trees and bushes all overgrown.( making it easier for someone to be unseen by anyone on the road)
The plunge pool was not that clean ( only cleaned once during our 3 week stay)
There was a terrible sewer type smell in the main bedroom. We told the maintenance person.Nothing was done during our stay.
Kitchen was well equipped.
Lots of towels and beach chairs etc provided.
The TV had a red line across the screen.
Follow up on the security issues... a chain was put around both gates, making access to the patio doors a bit more difficult.However, anyone could still access the patio doors by simply stepping on the wooden deck rails.
We loved the easy access to the beach, shops and the beach club pool.
We recently stayed in the Villa for 6 nights and had a great visit. The Villa was perfect for our needs (two couples). Clean and roomy. The beach club access was nice to have and we enjoyed our time around their pool and beach. We rented a car for our whole visit which made it very easy to travel from Holetown to all areas on the island, including the Friday night fish festival in Oistins. It is only a short drive to the local Massyâs grocery store where we did our shopping for breakfast and dinner items, which we prepared in the villaâs kitchen. The check in and check out process was easy. If we come back to Barbados, we would be happy to stay here again.
We booked a last-minute flight in December and needed somewhere to stay in Holetown. Tina was very accommodating in confirming the booking quickly and the apartment was exactly as described. Tricia was very helpful with check-in and check out. The apartment is a great location without the need for a car as you can walk to the beach, supermarket and bars, restaurants quite easily. Nice, quiet location
Lovely property and fabulously clean and tidy. Great location, walking distance to beach, barâs and supermarket. We did have a car but bus stop is at the end of the road 5 minutes away.
Villa was is a lovely and quiet area, and everything that we needed. We had a fabulous time and would definitely go back again.
The property manager Tricia was also lovely and helpful and met us at the property when we arrived.
Booking process was easy and Tina was very responsive to all of our questions before we arrived
On arrival we were able to check in slightly earlier than expected which was a bonus, Trisha was very helpful and her introduction to the facilities was clear and comprehensive
The house is in a good location a few minutes walk from the beach and shops
We had a car which was useful but we could have survived perfectly well without it
House well equipped and all in working order
Air conditioning was excellent
The access to the beach club was unexpectedly good, not busy and a great place to see the sun go down.
We were sorry to leave and would visit again.
This is a beautiful villa in an excellent area of Holetown.....only minutes from the beach, supermarket and all other amenities.
The villa is light and spacious and is spotlessly clean. The housekeeper, Kaye, is wonderful, and very high standards are maintained.
The attractive decked area makes a great place to relax and enjoy the tropical garden.
There is a good range of kitchen equipment, cooking utensils and a super fridge with an ice-making machine attached. There is a laundry room with very good washing machine and tumble drier.
The crockery is a bit limited and could do with being upgraded.
The property manager, Trisha, went the extra yard and immediately dealt with any requests that we made....eg....provision of a non-slip shower mat, which was necessary as one of our party had recently had a hip replacement.
We would come back to this property again in a heartbeat and would highly recommend it to others. Unfortunately, we were too slow off the mark and it is already booked for our preferred dates for 2024, otherwise we would have booked again without hesitation.
Great location, Great facilities, Great stay!!
Super clean, well equipped, amazing service from both the owner and the property manager (who is a true asset and went above and beyond)
Very happy with the whole experience.
If this villa fits your dates, Book it!! You won't be sorry.
