SMabey April 2012
We have just returned from our second rental in april 2012 and we will be back! Our first time renting the villa was in March 2010 when we rented it for two weeks and over the course of the two weeks had extended family join us as well as highschool kids and young adults. It was a fabulous experience in part because of the grandeur of the villa; in part because of the incredible staff who get service; and the generous and kind owners who followed up to make sure everything was done right. Two other couples joined us for a week (one returning and one for the first time) this time and our early regret was that we only came for 1 week but we won't make that mistake again. We had sung high praises of the villa and the staff and so we were somewhat nervous that we had oversold the place (memories do tend to get fonder with the passing of time) but that went out the window on the first day. Our trip was delayed due to airline issues and so we were saddened to think we would have one less day there but that was dispelled when Carolyn the local manager arranged for us to stay at the sister Villa for an extra night at the end of the week at no charge! If that was not enough the warmth and charm of Sabrina removed any doubt that may have remained. She is a jewel and contributes in no small way to the charm and specialness of the property. And speaking of the property it was every bit as special as we remembered it between the magnificent views; the open air feel to the villa; the new day bed jutting out over the cliffs where the ocean sounds and pounding waves lulled us to nap time on a number of occaisions; the refreshing infinity pool; anf for those of us needing to ease into relaxation a robust wireless network that allowed us to work and still enjoy the surroundings. The staff are incredibly helpful in arranging reservations and transportation to a wide variety of venues including golf, restaurants, and touristy venues. The proximity to the Crane Resort and its facilities only serves to enhance the whole Windermere experience. And we were able to participate in some local cuisine thanks to the staff arraning for a wonderful local cook to come in one night and cook for us. So we will be back and next time we will be staying for the 2 weeks again

We are still here at the villa but this place is so beautiful i had to write about it right away. The house itself is fantastic and beautiful. Large open area which acts as a family room dining room and the kitchen is big as well. The bedrooms are huge and the beds comfortable. All of the amenities are second to none. But where this house really shines is the outdoors area. The pool is decent size but the grounds around the pool are excellent and beautiful. There are daybeds, chairs and gazebos everywhere making it easy for everyone to get what they want, be it sun or shade. Carolyn who met us at the house was awesome in getting the house prepared with 3 cribs and stocking the fridge. They also recommended Emanuel tours who picked us up from the airport who have also been awesome. The driver, Justin, has been amazing and patient, reliable and very friendly. We have used him to travel the entire island and I can't recommend them enough. In all, this place is spectacular and the views are incredible. I am typing this while watching the sunrise from our patio!! Beautiful!!Recommended for: People with disabilities, families with young children, age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, sightseeing.

In order to celebrate my 50th birthday, my husband and I decided to rent Windermere Villa for 4 days and invite 3 other couples to join us. We all live in Barbados and appreciate the beautiful beaches and surroundings that the island provides us with on a daily basis. However, on entering Windermere we knew that we had found a truly hidden gem! Carolyn gave us a wonderful welcome, and called during our stay to see if there was anything that we needed. The housekeeper was very friendly,helpful and courteous.The villa itself is both spacious and comfortable inside and there is plenty of outdoor space too, from the pool deck to the upper rooftop deck, to the most wonderful daybed on the cliff. The view is magnificent! We invited other friends to a barbecue and everyone was totally blown away by this beautiful hidden gem. Forget the platinum coast of Barbados and think paradise on a cliff top with cool breezes and a million dollar view!! We would highly recommend this villa for a wonderful getaway or as an idyllic location for any special celebration.Recommended for: People with disabilities, families with young children, age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, sightseeing.

Beautiful Villa Offering a Spectacular!
I recently stayed at Windermere Villa ...wow what an beautiful property! Travertine marble, calm cream interiors and Mahoney furnishings throughout the villa set a tone of relaxation. The jewel of the villa is the swimming pool overlooking the stunning ocean view! The villa offers very large rooms with high ceilings. Ac is available but I preferred to open the deck doors to hear the crashing waves and capture the great ocean breeze. Three bedrooms have king beds and one room has twin beds all have full private bathrooms. Windermere is located a short walk to Crane Resort, so it's convenient if you want to visit the L'Azure Restaurant or the Crane Spa. A ideal choice for larger families or 4 couples travelling together
The Unique Benefits at this Villa:

Stunningly appointed with mahogany furniture, cozy couches, fully equipped granite kitchen and stunning bathrooms. No detail has been sparred – from an outdoor speaker system and lights to air conditioning in each of the bedrooms.
Location:
Located on the Southeast coast of Barbados, this villa is within walking distance to two of the best beaches in Barbados; Crane Beach and Foul Bay. The Crane Resort, a few minutes walk away, is world famous for cuisine, duty free shopping and their beach was ranked number one in the world. The Crane beach can be accessed through the Crane Resort next door if you buy a meal (only a 5 minute walk) or around the resort (which is about a 10-15 minute walk).
We also off pick-up from the airport, which is a gift to you from the Villa; car rental if you want that, purchasing of groceries ahead of time for the start of your stay and hiring of a cook.

WoW! WoW! WoW! Left on 01/03/2013 for a stay in November 2012
This is an excellent villa and ticks all the boxes. There were four of us staying in the villa for four days before picking up our cruise. The welcome from Carolyn was exceptional! Her knowledge of the local area and the island is second to none. The villa itself is immaculately decorated and the design is modern living - ie open spaced downstairs living area incorporating the lounge and kitchen. Then you also have another superb outdoor 'living' space. The pool is a decent size and the added luxury of the 'day bed' situated in the rocks is just bliss. We would not hesitate booking this villa on a return visit to Barbados.
