Map & Owner's Profile
Welcome to Costa Vista #2 ... Paradise Has a New Address
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Prospect
The Caribbean is by definition, filled with fantastic beaches and scenery. We choose to purchase a vacation home in Barbados primarily because of the beautiful people, the golf and the reliable infrastructure which allows us to relax and still get some work done if necessary via the internet.
The Unique Benefits at this Townhome
Relaxing at night on the rooftop in the still of the night and staring up at the night sky is special. With at least a 90 degree view of the Caribbean sea from almost every room at three levels is simply special. A visit every now and then from the indigenous green monkeys makes the beer taste even better.
Owner's Map of Prospect
Hello,
My name is Neil and my lovely wife is Sonya. We were both born in Guyana which is closely tied to the British Caribbean in culture and economic activities. Today we live in Vienna, Virginia but have not forgotten our Caribbean roots. Enjoying our friends in Barbados, golf and a bit of peace and quiet with a cold beer and a good book is truly a gift from GOD. Oh yeah ... How can I forget the fantastic Caribbean cuisine and ... did I mention the Rum!

GREAT ESCAPE for anyone Looking for A HIDEOUT or ROMANCE or JUST CHILLING OUT

I spent 7 days with my Teenage and Young adult children and we had a BLAST. very suitable for 6 adults with lots of room to fit ever individual mood on any given day. just relaxing , Swim , take a stroll Listen to music or watch TV. The view was spectacular from the ROOFTOP. Location was perfect for transportation and food shopping. Perfect for travelers with out a car. The BEACH was just a stone throw down the hill and across the street. Early morning breeze was more than welcomed by all and the GREEN Monkeys were a thriller with their playful antics and presence with no fare of any one. Off all the Villa was well accommodating for us in all sense of the word VERY MUCH AT HOME. I know for the last three years of visiting the Island this was the BANG for the BUCKS compared to some of the more expensive Apartments on the Coast. I know I will be making future reservations and will be recommending COSTA VISTA 2 all my friends who ever plans to visit Barbados. In Love COSTA VISTA 2 Renter MD USA

Lovely Views in Beautiful St.James

My family and I had a lovely time here. We were greeted by the property managers who were very nice and helpful. Beautiful mountainside views and lovely modern condo. Short bus trip to Holetown which is great for those shoppers. Local beaches were all beautiful. My advice is to rent a car as the hillside walk to the condo can be a bit much if you are not as fit as you used to be (especially with groceries)! Otherwise, my family would love to stay again!!

My husband and I spent our Honeymoon here and everything was perfect! The home is beautiful and the views are spectacular. We enjoyed late night swims in the pool to cool off and morning conversations with the monkeys. We couldn't have had a better location. The home is literally minutes from the beach, a grocery store, and a bus stop. We didn't need to rent a car because of the convenience of the location. The people were so sweet and genuine, and the food was fantastic. We even learned how to make Macaroni Pie and did it at home one night. The kitchen is well stocked with everything we needed and more and to top it all off Vishal (the local property manager) was so kind and helpful and made sure we had everything we needed during our 2 week stay. Hope to make another trip in the future....THANKS for letting us enjoy your home in paradise.

Review Submitted: 09/18/11
well where can I start? The property was as expected. the photos were spot on. it was clean & tidy although we really didn't spend much time there. The pool was excellant although we did have some noisy neighbors of the monkey variety! I wasn't sure who was watching who! What a fantastic experience. The house is on a steep hill so thank goodness we had hired a car. however, I would recommend this to ensure you get the full flavour the Bajan way of life. the people are wonderful, very friendly & always willing to help you out. Vishel was a lovely polite man who came regularly to check everything was ok for us at the house & he gave us some good advice on where to go.thank you Vishel. You have to visit Surfside which is situated on the beach in Holetown. Mullins beach, which is another 10 mins (approx) along the same road is small & friendly. While you are there dine in Mullins restaurant. Food is lovely & the service is outstanding. We also ate at Zacchios & Just Grilling(in Holetown) and Scarletts - cocktails are fab! Our favourite beach was Dover at St Lawrence Gap. A catarmaran day trip on Cool Runnings is a must. We had a fantastic time swimming with the turtles. The crew were wonderful. We will be going back for our 30th Wedding Anniversary in 2013 & it can't come quick enough.

A wonderful island offering fantastic sea and beaches. The fresh local fish is an experience of a lifetime. Most local Bajans are pleased to welcome you to their island. A must to use regularly are the rum shacks!! (especially John Moores bar). Our villa offers good views to the sea with plenty of opportunity to sunbathe and enjoy the pool in a secure and safe setting. The availability of sun loungers would greatly enhance the enjoy9ment.
