Little Reef was a great rental right on the beach. We snorkeled right at the front of this rental one - two times daily and saw a wide diversity of fish and creatures.Grantley, the rental caretaker lives right next door and was easy to work with on check in and check out.Little Reef is centrally located to reach tourist attractions and beaches located north and south of the location.We loved Little Reef and likely will return in the future.

Fantastic location

We loved falling asleep to the sound of the waves, snorkelling on the reef, and having the bustop a few metres away when we wanted to visit other parts of the island.

The beautiful beach is just steps away and perfect for swimming and snorkeling! AC worked very well in both bedrooms and the folding/sliding windows in the living room let the amazing ocean breezes in. Stunning views and easy access to busses all across the island.

Great beachside flat

Amazing location in Fitts Village, one of the most convenient places to stay on the West coast for access to the rest of the island. Direct access to the beach and incredible views of the sunset.

5/5After an unexpected change to our original accommodations, we relocated to this beautiful VRBO in Fitts Village and couldn’t have been happier with our decision.The location was outstanding. Situated directly across from a stunning beach on the west coast of Barbados, we enjoyed calm turquoise water, incredible sunsets, and a much more relaxing atmosphere than the busy south coast. The property was clean, comfortable, spacious, and well-maintained, providing plenty of room for our family to spread out and enjoy our vacation.One of the highlights was the exceptional hospitality. Richard was responsive and accommodating throughout the process, and Grantley was incredibly helpful upon our arrival, ensuring everything went smoothly. Their communication and attention to detail made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived.The location was also convenient, with easy access to nearby restaurants, grocery stores, and attractions while still offering a peaceful residential feel. We especially appreciated being close to Fitts Village, Holetown, and several excellent dining options along the west coast.After a stressful start to our vacation elsewhere, this property completely turned our trip around. We would not hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing Barbados getaway with great hosts and an excellent location.Thank you for helping make our family vacation memorable!
