Hyacinthia gave us a very warm welcome and Breezy Villa provided excellent accommodation.The property is well situated on a quiet road and not too far to walk to the beach and the nearby shops.A really great place to stay.

It was a pleasure hosting you and Viv. You were kind and respectful guests who took great care of the property. We’re grateful our place could be part of such a meaningful trip and pray that you will be able to make one more trip to visit our beautiful island. Stay blessed.
Fantastic stay at Breezy Villa within walking distance to beautiful Brighton beach, restaurants, grocery store. Our accommodation was equipped with everything you need. Our host Hyacinthia was very helpful, kind and generous. The neighbors were very friendly and we felt safe. I highly recommend Breezy Villa for a relaxing, stress free stay. Thanks, Tony and Deborah.

Thanks Toby; I hope that you and Debbie will consider staying with us on your next trip to Barbados.
Was perfect for a holiday stay in Barbados. Didn’t want a touristy experience so we stayed close to family and this location provided the perfect respite at a great value. Host and on-site manager super attentive and responsive. Would stay again.

Paradise in Barbados
I travel a lot (India, Brazil, Europe, US and more). As an avid traveler the accommodations at Breezy Villa were excellent. Close to everything including the beach, downtown and a grocery store where I could buy both local and common North American eats. The space had everything I needed and more spacious bedrooms (tons of closet space), air conditioning, gas stove and microwave and a good coffee machine to make my morning coffee. I really felt like a local. This was no tourist trap, everyone in the neighbor hood was friendly saying hi. I felt completely safe and super relaxed. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants am truly amazing experience in Barbados! Rhia N.

Why thank you Ms. Rhia. We loved having you and hope you will consider staying at Breezy Villa on your next trip to Barbados.
Our stay started off a bit stressfully because the keyless lock on the door didn’t work when we arrived. We were also pressed for time because we were rushing to get to a surprise birthday party for our best friend (who had no idea we were even in Barbados!). We had to contact Henrietta to help us get inside, and she was always patient, kind, and responsive while helping us sort things out.Overall, the stay was comfortable. The home was very clean, the beds very comfy, and the shower was great! Every morning we woke up to the sound of chatty roosters — definitely part of the local wake-up call!Since we didn’t rent a car, we walked to a nearby beach and grocery store, both about a 15-minute walk away. The home is in a residential part of town rather than a resort area. One thing we noticed is that the streets can be surprisingly confusing to navigate.Even some cab drivers seemed unsure — so it’s easy to lose your way. The good news is that people in the neighbourhood were always friendly and willing to help when we asked for directions.A tip: use the cab driver Henrietta recommends — it’s much easier on the pocket:-)Also, look out for the buzzing kites overhead. They make a noise that sounds like angry bees. While flying them is a long-standing local pastime, even locals say the noise can get annoying after a while.Overall, we appreciated Henrietta’s responsiveness and the comfort of the family-friendly home, and we thank her for helping make our stay a pleasant one!

The Heart of Barbados
From the moment we arrived we knew we were in the heart of Barbados. Chickens and roosters greeted us, as did our friendly neighbors and some locals headed to work. When we entered the villa, we were warmed with sunlight passing through the many windows. (Each window has curtains if you’re looking for privacy.) The island breeze blows consistently keeping fresh air flowing. There are perfectly working air conditioners and fans if needed for the warmest part of the day. The villa has such a cozy feel and immediately lowered our stress levels. It is clean and bug-free, and the bed in the room we chose allowed us uninterrupted sleep. It was one of the highlights! The grocery store (full of brand name items and delicious local baked goods) is an eight-minute walk away and the beach is about 20. The beach was not crowded and there is a local bar if you’d like drinks and a meal. The property manager was available for any questions we had and she is extremely kind and welcoming. While we were there, the owner checked in with us via email to see if we needed anything. She even recommended a cab driver, who was punctual and reliable. If you want to escape the busy city and live like a local, this villa is your place to stay in Barbados.

Ann Marie, it was a pleasure hosting you and your fiancé. Sherrill spoke very highly of you and we enjoyed you as a guest. I am happy that you felt welcomed at the villa. That's what we aim for. We did say that it's a cultural immersion and we're glad that you got to experience the essence of Bajan living. Please come back to your 2nd home anytime.

Thank you for your feedback. I’d like to clarify a couple of points. The washing machine was not broken — the technician simply pressed the same reset button I had asked you to use. The oven light also remained on because the light button had been pressed inadvertently and just needed to be switched off.
Regarding the claim, the cabinet door was broken and several towels were heavily stained beyond professional cleaning, so they had to be replaced. Filing a claim is never personal; It’s part of maintaining the home for future guests.
As for the backyard, the cemented layout is intentional to keep it clean and low-maintenance year-round. We do appreciate your suggestion in your direct message about adding grass and flowers along the edges and will keep it in mind.
Wishing you the best in your future travels.
My husband and I spent 17 days at the BreezyVilla. It was our first trip to Barbados and we'll definitely be back. Hyacynthia was so accommodating and responsive to questions. Even when WestJet cancelled our flight home she was able to accomadate us for a few more days to make the next flight.
The house was safe, clean and comfortable. Sherrill, Hyacynthia's niece took care of any needs we had and her father, Lionel lives right behind the house. Lionel was so kind and came by to chat. We never felt unsafe even though the area was not the typical tourist location. We were living right with the Bajan people. It's a 15 min walk down to Brandon's beach where we spent many afternoons reading our books and playing in the Sea.
We toured the whole island many times over and met so many fantastic souls. The Bajan people are so relaxed, down to earth and kind. I would highly recommend as stay at the Breezy Villa if you want to immerse yourself in the Bajan coulure away from the typical tourist locations.
Don't forget to ask Lionel about his hot sauces. They're very flavourful and will curl your toenails if you like hot stuff.
Thank you Hyacyntbia, Sherrill and of course Lionel for his wonderful hot sauces and friendly conversation.

Thank you for your kind words. You were wonderful guests and it was our pleasure to host you. Lionel was pleased that you enjoyed his sauces and was tickled to meet fellow Canadians. I hope that our paths will cross again in the near future.
