This villa is beautiful, comfortable and well appointed. Nice deep pool, well equipped kitchen. Odessa, our housekeeper was wonderful, helpful and unobtrusive. Great location -10 min walk to lovely beach with crystal clear turquoise water, and 20 min walk to Holetown where there are lots of restaurants and shops. Difficult to think of a single negative. We had a fabulous time.

Villa Horizon is a lovely, quiet and spacious villa with a nice swimming pool! My kids really enjoyed their 3 day stay here. It was a great 3 day stay in our summer holiday. Odessa is a very pleasant, jolly, helpful lady who really helped me throughout my 3 days. Really looking forward to coming back here again. My kids didn't want to leave the pool. My siblings who visited really had a fantastic time here as well. Adrian was just a phone call away. We will definitely tell many of our friends and family about this fantastic villa. I think we are the first Muslim family that stayed here. We hope we set a good example for others to come and enjoy this beautiful villa. Sorry for any damage that may have been caused by our four kids.

It was such a pleasant stay at Villa Horizon. The house was lovely and my family had a wonderful stay. Odessa is a gem and made us very comfortable. Adrian was always a phone call away. Thanks for a great summer. Blessings from the Tudors. P.S. Mich said the pool is awesome!

What a beautiful villa and Odessa was truly amazing. Fantastic facilities and a brilliant sound system. Thank goodness for the short cut to the beach and highly recommend Freddie for sunbeds. We will be back again next year.

Dear Adrian, Thank you so much for your hospitality. It's been such a wonderful experience to visit your country and to enjoy your beautiful home. Everything was easy and pleasant and Odessa really made us feel like we were on vacation. The house always looked clean and nice. It was a pleasure to meet you. Thank you for everything . We hope to come again

Hi Adrian, I just wanted to send a quick note as we left in a bit of a hurry today (enjoying our last lunch!) and didn't have time to write in the Guest Comments book. The villa really is peaceful and in a beautiful setting and it is very well thought out with everything you need. The outside space really is a delight and there are areas for everyone to sit and have their own space which is really appreciated. We worked out this was our 11th trip to Barbados and we have stayed in a number of hotels and villas on the west coast but enjoyed Villa Horizon more than any of the others. Thank you again for making it such a smooth experience and also to Odessa who was charming and efficient.

Yet another wonderful stay in the beautiful Villa Horizon and on the magical island of Barbados. The villa has provided the perfect base for our family to get together and enjoy ourselves. Spotlessly clean and so comfortable, all aided by the amazing Odessa - what a delight! She is a kind, sweet, friendly Bajan who is fantastic at her job and a real asset to the villa. We will be back! Wishing you all a happy and a healthy 2019.

Thank you so much for hosting us in your tremendously beautiful Villa Horizon. The place is incredible, we really do not want to leave. It is the right balance of quiet and serene, just a short walk to the beach & shops. The sound system and additional details are impeccable. Your work on this villa does not go unnoticed. Thank you again, we will be back! Matt & Charlotte

Dear Adrian, Villa Horizon was beautiful, fun and relaxing. My friend Cee from Canada enjoyed the pool, deck and the tropical scene. We had a lovely BBQ and enjoyed ourselves. Odessa was very helpful and did a great job. Thank you also Adrian for assisting us whenever we called you. Will definitely recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful villa. Thank again.

Dear Adrian, Thank you for a lovely stay. I must say that Villa Horizon exceeded my expectations. Everything was lovely, from the decor, the garden and the pool. I had an amazing and relaxing time. This villa has definitely topped my books. The surroundings were very clean and tidy. With this, a special thanks goes to Odessa. Her hospitality was very welcoming and she made sure that everything was in working order. I can definitely say that I will recommend and share my experience with friends and family. With special thanks, Antonio

Dear Adrian, Laure and I had a fantastic time at your picture-perfect and immaculate villa. We appreciated the thoughtful touches (e.g. bugspray in the bedrooms and coffee in the fridge), but the surround sound system & the pool were our favourites. Thank you for your hospitality. Warm Regards, Amy & Laure

Adrian, Although we did not get a chance to meet in person, I wanted to say thank you for sharing your beautiful home with my students and I. I've stayed at AirBnbs in the past but this place is by far the BEST! You did an amazing job with making sure your guests had a 'hotel feel' and you did just that for us. Odessa is a plus because she is not only kind but she literally makes sure everything is perfect and your guests are happy. We will definitely stay again! xoxo Tasha Tull & the students of NMHS Class of 2018

What a wonderful villa! The kitchen is better equipped than ours at home. We had a few technical issues which were sorted promptly (on a Sunday) and without fuss - such professionalism. A wonderful location - 10/15 minutes walk to Holetown. Incredibly quiet and peaceful. It was hard to leave the pool but glad we did. Do tour the island. Recommend Freddy & Nougat and Sonlis (next to Lone Star restaurant) for sunbeds on a turtle friendly beach. Do go to Animal Flower Cave but walk out along the cliffs. North, East, South, West coasts all have charm. Surfside & Coral Reef for excellent sunset cocktails. Enjoy, we did!

What a fantastic place! Thank you Adrian for booking us 'last minute' and having the place ready ready for us on Sunday. This was much more than we ever expected! The house is beautiful, the pool deck is amazing! We cannot say enough about how happy we were to find this villa. We will definitely recommend this to friends and family and we hope to be back next year. Odessa is wonderful! It was so nice to come home to a clean house after a long day of beaches and sightseeing. Barbados is the best!

Adrian, we had a wonderful time at your villa. It was so well equipped and when the electrical power in the area went out, we felt so fortunate to have the standby generator, which automatically kicked in and provided power to the entire villa. Odessa was sweet and kept everything clean and organised. We will be in touch for our next visit. Thank you.

In Barbados to celebrate our friend's 60th birthday in this beautiful villa, which exceeded our expectations. We had a wonderful time although the weather could have been slightly better but it didn't spoil our enjoyment. Adrian, Michelle & Odessa couldn't have done more for us to make our stay memorable. What a lovely villa, felt quite at home. Everything we needed (apart from some plastic boxes - tupperware to put sandwiches in). Loved the view from the swimming pool especially when having a sun downer. Enjoyed eating at Lone Star and Fish Pot. Toured the island but still felt we were in the right spot here. We were also with our good friends, all six of us felt we made a good choice with this villa, an absolutely wonderful place.

6 of us stayed 4th to 15th January 2018. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and Adrian was on hand to sort out anything we needed help with . Odessa the villa maid came in every week day and cleaned and put out fresh towels. It was lovely to come back to a clean and tidy villa. We thought the villa was ideally placed and we walked to the local beach, had sundowners, GG,s and ate at Lone Star one night which was really nice we even bumped into Simon Cowell . We really enjoyed the Sonos music system the pool area. We did hire a car and did prefer this area to the south of the island. Which we thought was a bit touristy . We thought speightstown was more true Barbados than the south. We catered in a few nights and the kitchen is well stocked with everything you need we even baked a cake . Just down the road is Limegrove shopping centre and we did enjoy riding on the reggae busses for $2 . Massy supermarket is also next to Limegrove and it stocks everything you need but it is expensive especially cereals cakes wine etc. We used a bakery in speightsown to pick up some lunch on a few days, sausage Rolls were $2.50 Bbd . The area around the villa is very quiet apart from some baking dogs but I think they bark when the monkeys are about. No dogs roam free here! It felt very safe and we had a alarm we could put on and plenty of security lights. The Barbadians are such friendly people. Thank you Adrian for looking after us. I would definitely recommend this villa.

Exceptional holiday to celebrate my 60th birthday. Beautiful island, beautiful villa, beautiful people. What more can I say? This villa is run with an amazing level of professionalism which is rare these days. We dined at The Cliff and The Tides restaurants. In our opinion, The Tides is better. Recommend The Cliff for drinks and the Tides for dinner.

We had an excellent stay here at Villa Horizon. The villa is amazing with lots of space for the four of us. Odessa was wonderful and ever so friendly. We have all decided that Barbados is one of the friendliest places in the world and would love to come back again. Thank you so much for accommodating us in this beautiful villa with its beautiful surroundings.

Sad to leave such a beautiful and serene place. Our 4 year-old grandson leaned to swim front and back the length of the pool - we all enjoyed the pool very much & went to the beach twice. Thanks to Odessa for her attentive service & cleanliness. A very relaxing time.

The villa is in a perfect location for getting around to the many adventures Barbados has to offer. The villa is layered out so there is plenty of room for everyone (we were a family of six) to find his or her own space. It is beautifully decorated with everything possible that one would need in a kitchen. The pool deck is perfect for sunning, cooling off in the pool or enjoying the late afternoon sunsets. I would highly recommend Villa Horizon for a Barbados holiday .

Villa Horizon has been home to an assortment of Wilton family and friends ranging in ages from 3 - 65, for the last two weeks. Some of us (though clearly not the 3 year old) have been to Barbados many times and this must be one of the best, if not the best place, any of us have stayed in. The villa has been kept in immaculate condition by the excellent Odessa who we'd like to take home with us, but she wouldn't appreciate the -3 degree temperature which awaits us there. The surrounding gardens and their wildlife and birdlife, such as tiny hummingbirds have been a delight, as has been the villa's many other facilities. If one turns right, and right again, past the front of the villa, walk between the two houses being built, turn left, then by weaving your way right, right, left, left, it will bring you out on the main road near the Lonestar restaurant, after only a 10 minute walk. Located on the far side of Lonestar is Santi's Beach Bar which we recommend. Sorry if the instructions for the route are so vague but it is a lot quicker than going via the main road. Finally, give a big pat on the back to whoever thought of putting a printer in the villa, which enabled us to print out our boarding cards - brilliant! One day, we'd love to come back.

Such a fantastic stay - found Villa Horizon by chance on the internet and booked last minute flights to follow. We have all dined, swam, explored and rested. Beautifully maintained and stocked and thank you Odessa for making it feel so homely, clean and a pampered experience. With love from all of us.

This is a beautiful and luxurious villa we would actually be very happy to live here..... if only. Very well equipped and Adrian and Michelle ensure you have a lovely time. The pool and deck are very private, if like us you prefer the pool to sea then this is absolutely perfect. However, the sea is a short walk away if you want to spend your time there. You definitely require a car or be willing to take taxis if you want to visit the shops for groceries etc. The entertainment system is great, allowing you to play your music both downstairs and on the pool deck.

House of Soca family lime, it was perfect here at Villa Horizon, we were able to relax, have fun and generally reflect on 2015. The surroundings, the pool and all the facilities were on point. This villa has a perfect view and also has an atmosphere to help you clear your mind. The pool is lovely, the rooms are comfy, the bathroom water temperature is just right. Would recommend for future references.

Dear Adrian & Michelle, My family and I had an excellent stay at your Villa Horizon. The interactions prior to and on arrival was very professional. The housekeeper Necia was a great complimentary package, she gave us a warm and professional greeting on arrival to the villa and carefully attended to our everyday needs, I think in some cases she went above expectations. Thanks Michelle for the professional greeting on our arrival, ensuring all our questions were answered. The level of security at the villa was great, ensuring safety is #1. The villa made my family and I feel so much at home that we decided that when we return to Barbados we will definitely stay here again. On behalf of the Brereton family, I just want to say thanks, well done and God Bless. Regards, Lerry Brereton & Family

My boyfriend and I had a beautiful stay at Villa Horizon. We plan on coming back very soon for his birthday. The house was very nice and what I enjoyed most about it was the pool and the way the living room and dining room have the feeling of you being outside, very spacious, breezy and quiet feeling, like one with nature. The housekeeper Necia was very helpful and went beyond her duty to make sure we were comfortable. The privacy and security system was excellent. This villa made by birthday one of the best birthdays ever! Thank you, Much Love.

This house was just as beautiful in person as it is in the pictures. It comes with daily maid service who also cooked breakfast for us every morning which was unexpected and an absolute bonus. The house is walking distance to the beach and a cab ride away from the town. The host was amazing, and whenever I had any questions Adrian responded immediately. I would definitely recommend staying here if you plan on visiting Barbados. The cost comes out better than staying at any hotel and you have your own privacy. The only thing you have to bring is yourself and groceries, everything else the house has for you.

Truly wonderful place which fits perfectly with the pictures on the website. Thoroughly enjoyed the generous outside spaces, particularly the verandas and the inside of the home was well designed, super clean and with nothing missing. Really worth it!!!

A big "Thank you" to Adrian and Clyne. Six of the Kemp family stayed for 12 brilliant days. We'd come back in a shot, so much nicer than a hotel.We recommend the Fish Pot restaurant in Speightstown (for Lunch) and Oistins for a special evening on Friday night....anyway we went to Bath beach and it was memorable. Thanks again.

Really convenient location, nice local beach and close to shops and restaurants. The Housekeeper was meticulous, helpful and friendly. Se, were there any negatives? No. not really, the Internet is a bit slow but the availability of a wireless printer made online check-in and printing boarding passes really convenient. We are a family of six adults....we had a great time. Villa Horizon gets our full recommendation:-)

First time in Barbados for our family of 6. Stayed for 3 weeks. Villa Horizon was outstanding! Centrally located just a 2 minute drive to central Holetown. Villa was immaculate and had all the luxuries of a 5 star hotel and more. Accommodated our entire family and highlight was the pool and outside patio area. If you're lucky, you might even get a monkey or two swinging/running by the property! Housekeeper Marva is outstanding and catered to our needs. A long way for us to travel but definitely worth the trip! We hope to be back.

Wow! What can I say other than our party of 8 people have thoroughly enjoyed staying at Villa Horizon, St. James.You have ensured that we are well catered and nothing has been left off, ensuring we have a comfortable stay. A huge thanks to Marva who has been on hand by cleaning and washing for us. We have been well and truly spoilt and we thank you both. The villa is nicely laid out and it is like home away from home. We will definitely stay here again for 2015. We really don't want to return to the cold but have to go to come back.

Ten days living in Villa Horizon, a very splendid villa. There are many things we love apart from the pool - the cleanliness and freshness, such as space, the coolness of the open side for lunch and BBQ, the warmth of the pool patio, and lots of places to sit, play with a toddler and read. We had to be very carefull around the pool with our 20 month old grandson as the pool is very deep. We have all had a very happy 10 days. We tried many beaches and decided the best for our toddler is the nearest one, Heron Bay beach. The best restaurant was the Cliffs, although all were of a high standard, Beach Hut, Tides, Lone Star, Fish Pot, Just Grillin, but we loved the Roundhouse restaurant on the Atlantic side at Bathsheba beach. We saw plenty of wildlife around the villa, ginger cat, ginger dog, monkeys, a mangoose! So thank you Adrian & Michelle, will certainly recommend your villa.

Adrian & Michelle, your lovely villa has helped to make our two week stay the most enjoyable and most memorable yet in Barbados. The pool and patio are our favourite places to hang out. We appreciated all the extras, including the sound system, wi-fi, well appointed kitchen and washer/dryer. Along with some of our old favourite eating places, we discovered some news ones too. Best find was Island Plates in Speightstown, across from Jordan's Supermarket. We even had Pat and Marie come to the villa and do dinner for us one night. Excellent!

This was the perfect location for our family to come together from various parts of the world, midway between Los Angeles and London. We loved the villa; the pool was lovely for our lazy mornings. Adrian was so accommodating and even provided us with a new Blu-Ray player and DVDs. When we mentioned we liked to watch movies, romantic comedies and adventure, he was so kind to drop off a great selection. Our favourite place to visit on the island was Hunte's Gardens. We also really liked Crane Bay beach, but the local beaches here are excellent and tranquil. We found ourselves eating more than once at Just Grilling, which is just on the south edge of Holetown. We love the easy-going way of life here that includes a mellow, courteous, give-way style of driving and free & easy parking - heaven for London and Los Angeles dwellers who often find themselves in the middle of terrible traffic jams and unfriendly parking wardens. We truly relaxed, communicated and healed as a family while we were here and for that we are grateful. Many, many thatnks. We will see you soon again.

There are so few places we have found like this. Fantastic villa, great location, perfect island. Just wondeful for our family of seven plus baby. Many thanks to Adrian and Michelle who provided us with the cot and high chair. Nothing seemed too much trouble for these kind people and their flexibility was much appreciated. It was a pleasure to deal with such professional people who ensured our holiday was a delight from start to finish.

We five friends from various parts of the UK have had a great relaxing time here. All the facilities are excellent. Lots to do nearby, with or without a car (which we hired for the 2nd week). Many highlights including cattlewash, Bathsheba beach, the crane resort and beach, swimming with the turtles but also snorkeling, which is fantastic. Just walk down to Folkestone Marine reserve - the variety and number of fish is amazing. Thanks Adrian and Amanda. Best Wishes.

Villa Horizon is a fantastic place to stay. It is close to the beaches and shops around Holetown. We are a family of seven and the kids loved the villa (as did Mom and Dad) and we comfortably fitted in. Most days were spent by the pool and down by the beach at Ramshackle, the best little beach bar in Barbados. Thank you for a great relaxed holiday.

After a busy two weeks touring Alaska & the Rockies, we were delighted to arrive at the beautiful Villa Horizon. We have thoroughly enjoyed all the facilities offered, especially the pool and music deck. We certainly could not have wished for anymore home comforts! Over the past week we have toured your beautiful island enjoying all the restaurants, especially the Fish Pot; the scuba diving, snorkeling, swimming with the turtles not to mention the Oistins experience! So a big "Thank You" Adrian, Michelle & Amnada for lending us your wonderfully peaceful villa. We would love to return quite soon. We hope you had a great trip to London.

Perfect location, perfect house, everything was absolutely perfect! The house made my 30th birthday a memorable one and I would definitely recommend it. A big thank you to Adrian & Amanda!! We hope to see you again soon.

We have had quite the amazing time here in Barbados and Villa Horizon! We ventured out to Crane Beach, Bottom Bay, Rockley Beach & Bathsheba but at times was difficult to drag ourselves away from the pool deck where many hours were spent liming away. The movies and music on the Apple TV unit were a nice bonus. Flight out today and we have to leave a bit early to fit shopping in our way out. Thanks to Adrian for this wonderful vacation rental....many good times were had!

We have had the most fantastic holiday in Barbados. The villa has made it all the more special and memorial. A big thank you to Amanda who has looked after us during our stay. We highly recommend visiting the Concorde museum and the Atlantis submarine - truly magical. Don't forget to stop off at Flindt Bistro for their fab pastries and cakes - not to mention the best coffee on the island. This has been an enjoyable stay - thanks Adrian and Michelle for letting out your amazing villa.

Thank you for a wonderful holiday at this gorgeous villa! We are a family of five, with three small children and the villa accommodated all our needs. The kids loved the pool! Amanda, the housekeeper, is fantastic and looked after us very well. We shall all be back next year and shall look forward to staying here again. Thanks to Adrian and his lovely wife, Michelle.

Villa Horizon is a lovely villa with a lovely pool and air blowing across the area every evening. It was unfortunate that we did not have an icemaker or dishwasher that worked but the island is lovely and we had eight ladies who enjoyed all there was to offer. We used a fantastic driver “Curtis” Watson of “Curtis Taxi Services” who took us all over the island and was very reasonable. He even took some of us to see his gardens, which was featured in the local newspaper. Try Beach Club for lunch and Ragamuffins for dinner, both great. Beautiful villa, Adrian , Michelle & Amanda do a lovely job!

Thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay here at Villa Horizon. It was everything we could have hoped it could be. Thanks to Adrian, Michelle & Amanda. Eric, Barbara, Ryan, Vicky, Arron, Helen & Harriett - May 17 - 30, 2010 - UK Nestled in the hillside near Holetown sits Villa Horizon, amongst the chirping frogs, fluttering hummingbirds and other beautiful birds. The villa is comfortable, very spacious and beautifully designed. There are plenty of gorgeous places to sit and watch the sky, the flora or the horizon. We loved the location, it feels very private but is super close to beaches, restaurants and whatever you might need. The snorkeling at Folkestone was quite good, our favourite fish, the parrot fish were in abundance and as many different species. We liked eating at Zaccios, it was kid friendly ( but perfectly romantic with torch lighting) the food was fresh and too expensive. We will miss Villa Horizon when we go back to our apartment in NYC.

A brilliant holiday, wonderful villa - thank you very much. Recommend swimming with the turtles, (Ask for Marvin at Holetown beach!!) Harrison's Cave, Oistins fish fry on Friday night & Ragamuffins in Holetown. Ate too many yummy cakes from Flindts Patisserie!! Worth going to the north & East Coast for Animal Flower cave. Bottom Bay and Crane Beach are great! Villa met all our needs - from 3 years & upwards.

We had a terrific time due in no short measure to the attentiveness of you and Michelle and the quality of the overall service you provide. Amanda did a great job although I understand she has gone back home now. Jason was a great driver and the hire car company most efficient. The villa is excellent in its layout and amenities. Its best attribute however is its position. Close to the coast but it has a great feeling of solitude and a great view. We saw the Queen Mary 2 arrive and leave in all its fully illuminated glory while we were there. Maggie and I think that, although your web site is very good, you undersell the villa's position. The pictures are good, but you might like to consider the one I have attached, which we think does the place full justice. Just a few very minor quibbles. That beep never got resolved and we could not see how to get regular channels (CBS, ABC, local TV etc) on the TV. We could not find the iPod charger ourselves so it must have been missing before we arrived. We did mention this to Michelle one time on the phone. But these are very minor and we are looking back on a memorable trip and stay and intend to come back as soon as time , money and air miles allow.

A fabulous week. Don't miss Crane beach, Lonestar for dinner and glass bottom boats for sun & snorkeling. Thanks for all of your help Adrian! Amanda's also been great. The kids really took to her and wouldn't leave her alone. This was our first trip to Barbados and Villa Horizon but will certainly not be the last. We absolutely cannot wait for our next trip to this amazingly beautiful place.

Adrian & Michelle have been extremely helpful and efficient. Everything we needed for our young grandchildren was provided. We have had a wonderful holiday with our family and will highly recommend Villa Horizon to our friends. Amanda has also been a great help and very warm and welcoming. We hope to be back soon!

Adrian, we have had such a fantastic holiday. Whilst emailing from the UK, we were so impressed with the professional response we received. On arrival, what a delight! Beautiful bedding, towels, luxury which so many people get wrong. It is truly a 5-star accommodation and the help and quality during our stay was excellent. I always look for a holiday that offers at least as good as I have at home (my standards are very high and I am an interior designer) and this villa easily comes up to standard. Amanda is an excellent housekeeper. We have enjoyed our stay with you and thanks to Michelle, we are hoping to buy something on the island. You are very professional, and the first impression was this, the quality of your help and standard did not drop at all. Excellent, Thank you.

We hope this is not our only visit to Barbados! Many thanks.

We have had a wonderful holiday; Barbados has been a truly relaxing experience for us all. This has been made even better by the exceptionally high standard of Villa Horizon, which is ideally located for magnificent beaches, shops and restaurants. Thank you to Adrian and Michelle for the attention to detail in the villa which makes it feel like home from home! Adrian’s preparations and concern for us during Hurricane Dean made us feel very safe. Amanda is a delight to have around the villa, inconspicuous but efficient. She keeps the villa immaculate and represents the welcoming face of Barbados. Swimming with the turtles is highly recommended. You have the most beautiful sea for swimming, so warm and calm. The Fish Pot was a great place to eat. A drive to the East Coast of the island is highly recommended. We will be passing on information about the villa to family and friends. We hope to see you again! Thanks to Adrian, Michelle & Amanda

We have had a fantastic fortnight in Barbados, made all the better by staying in an outstanding villa - which has been beautifully constructed and is very well equipped. Amanda manages to keep it immaculate and Adrian has been most helpful both before and throughout our stay. Brilliant location with easy access to the west Coast, yet peaceful and quiet. We recommend the 5 hour sailing trip with Cool Runnings, snorkeling with the turtles, lunch and a crew who are great. Also, Ragamuffins on a Sunday night at 9. 15pm for a drink and to watch the brilliant floor show! Thanks to Adrian & Amanda

What a week! Beautiful weather, great accommodation and a very friendly island. To date, this tops our vacation destinations and I'm confident we'll be seeing you in '08. Kudos to Amanda for taking great care of the villa during our stay. I have to say, great job for making a fairly high maintenance family all smiles.

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Horizon, the accommodations were perfect, the house was very well-equipped and well appointed and we appreciated Amanda's help. We made good use of the pool and the barbeque was a special bonus. We will definitely recommend a stay at Villa Horizon to others.

Thank you all for making our journey and our stay as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. We all had a superbly fabulous time. The pool, villa, location etc. were excellent and all six of us (plus two more hopefully!!) will be back within 12 months! Thanks again for everything you have done.

We have had a wonderful 10 days in Barbados made even better by staying in this fabulous villa “Horizon”. The accommodation is so well layed out and furnished to a very high standard. Great location on the St. James coast to Holetown & beaches and yet in such a private & quiet area. Thank you for letting us share this wonderful villa!

Your place looked magnificent on the website, but after seeing it up close and living in it for 10 days, I must say the pictures did not do it justice. A fantastic property, fine service and a tremendous location! What a find! I wouldn't stay in a hotel again.

Hi Adrian, just a short message to thank you for your assistance both before and during our stay. We found your house to be in a prime location for both restaurants and beaches on the west coast. We found the house to be both comfortable and very well appointed and furnished to a high standard. Your housekeeper Amanda was also a very pleasant young lady. We would have no hesitation in recommending your house to potential clients. We will see you again on our next visit. Have a nice Christmas.

Best Wishes, Garrett Maher

Hi Adrian, your lovely villa contributed to a fabulous two weeks in Barbados. The lovely pool and quiet seclusion was just what the doctor ordered. We will be seeing you on our next visit to the island
