Spacious apartment close to south coast beaches - Summer offers available

Welcome to Somnia, a holiday haven in the heart of the Garrison World Heritage Centre, and only minutes away from the wonderful beaches, bars and restaurants of Christchurch, Barbados. The apartment is on the first floor of a detached house in a residential cul-de-sac. Somnia is ideal for visitors who want easy access to the best beaches on the south coast, such as the famous Accra Beach (Rockley) and Hastings Boardwalk, as well as a fantastic range of bars, fast food outlets and fine dining restaurants to please all tastes. Local amenities, such as supermarkets, ATMs, pharmacies, and public transport, are within minutes' walk. Many popular visitor attractions are close by, such as the George Washington House, the Barbados Museum and the Garrison Savannah where visitors can mingle with locals and enjoy free horse racing during the season. The capital city, Bridgetown, offers fabulous duty-free shopping, including the famous Cave Shepherd department store. Somnia offers guests a comfortably furnished home-from-home. The spacious air-conditioned master bedroom has a double bed and offers views over the Caribbean sea. It has built-in wardrobes and masses of storage space. It opens onto a large, modern, tiled en-suite wet-room with a hot and cold shower and double vanity units. The second bedroom is also air-conditioned and offers a double bed, ample storage space and its own adjoining bathroom. After a day out at the beach or exploring Barbados’s many attractions, you can relax in the spacious open-plan lounge; watch internet TV, play board or card games, have a few rounds of dominoes, read a book from our small library or enjoy an eclectic selection of music. High-speed internet is available throughout the property for leisure or work purposes. Somnia is ideal for guests who prefer self-catering options. We offer a fully equipped kitchen with a good-sized fridge-freezer, microwave, six burner hob and oven with a grill, juicer, rice cooker, food processor, coffee grinder, coffee machine and just about every piece of kitchen equipment you will need. Perfect for guests wanting to try their hand at some Bajan dishes such as macaroni pie and flying fish. For those who prefer not to use their precious holiday time in the kitchen, there is a range of nearby restaurants and bars offering breakfasts, lunches, dinners and snacks, as well as a number of fast-food outlets offering free home delivery. Our agent, Trudi, can also arrange for a professional chef to come in and cook a special meal for you. Recent guests have used this service for Christmas dinner and for sampling traditional Bajan cooking. A special feature of Somnia is its large open veranda, furnished with easy lounging chairs and a dining table shaded from the sun. Take time to relax in an Adirondack lounger as you enjoy a lazy breakfast while planning the day's activities. In the afternoon, enjoy a chilled beer or wine, rum punch or whatever cocktail takes your fancy, (help yourselves to fresh coconuts and limes from the trees in the garden), while watching the antics of our resident family of green monkeys, or marvelling at the iridescent hummingbirds as they hover over the flowering plants. In the evenings, relax out here and enjoy spectacular sunsets over the Caribbean. Whatever time of day, the veranda is the perfect place to relax. Somnia is situated on a hill overlooking the Caribbean and is often blessed with a fresh breeze. But if you feel the heat you will enjoy the solar-powered air conditioning in the bedrooms, and all rooms have ceiling fans, as well as an array of floor and table fans for your comfort. A high chair and travel cot are provided for infants. Somnia accommodates four to five guests, so it is the perfect choice for a family, a couple or a group of friends. A housekeeper is available who will clean the apartment and change towels and bedding on a weekly basis. She will also give you a hand with your laundry if requested, though this is at the guests' own expense. The washing machine and dryer are in a separate utility room behind the house. There is free parking for up to three cars in the driveway, and guests are welcome to make use of the garden and the utility room. Please note that we also have a 2-bedroom one bathroom apartment on the ground floor of Somnia. This can accommodate up to four people. It is ideal for guests with limited mobility, e.g. who cannot climb stairs. For larger groups/families, both apartments can be rented as a single house. Please do contact us if you are interested in this option.
