About this property

5 Porters Court, Luxury 2 bed villa, 5 mins walk to beach, including Beach Club

Located one mile north of Holetown, opposite the Fairmont Royal Pavilion Hotel with included Fairmont Beach Club membership. On the exclusive West Coast and close to glorious beaches (200m) and within easy reach of a wide selection of shops, bars and fine restaurants. 5 Porters Court is a luxury 2 bedroom, 2 en-suite bathroom villa with wrap around veranda, spacious open plan living area, well equipped fitted kitchen and private car parking adjacent to the villa. The charming villa is built in traditional chattel house design with high pickled pine ceilings. The living area has two sets of French doors opening onto a wrap around veranda (with gas BBQ) for outside dining and relaxing. The villa is air conditioned throughout.

Porters Court is an exclusive gated development of 8 luxury villas with a communal swimming pool and patio area with sun loungers and umbrellas. The villas are set within beautiful well-maintained tropical gardens. No. 5 has a great location right by the pool.

The villa comes with membership of the Fairmont Royal Pavilion Beach Club, a five minute walk from the property. This gives guests free access to sun beds and umbrellas and use of the beach bar and water sports facilities at your own expense. The famous Lonestar restaurant is also about a 5 minute walk as are three great beach bars.

Our housekeeper will visit three days per week. We provide all guests with a complimentary welcome grocery pack of tea, coffee, orange juice, milk, eggs, bread, butter, fruit, local beers and rum punch so you can relax immediately and enjoy your holiday. Our on-island property manager is always available to help. We can also arrange airport transfers and recommend car hire.

An outstanding property! I stayed along with my adult daughter and her friend. Holetown is a wonderful location and the villa is beautifully appointed, with all of the amenities that one needs, including a full kitchen, laundry, etc. We very much appreciated Tracy‘s quick responses to our questions and also the friendly and warm support from Veronica! We definitely hope to return, soon!

Tracy was amazing, so helpful with restaurants and excursions, even down to the taxi driver. The villa is beautiful, reality is even better than the photos. Membership to the Fairmont is a huge bonus. Location is great, handy for Holetown and with the buses being so accessible, it’s very easy to travel up and down the coast. All round an amazing place to stay.

From making our first enquiry to today as we leave, everything has been amazing.Tracy has been a brilliant host and the accommodation was just perfect with every amenity you could wish for. It was spotlessly clean, thanks to the lovely Veronica, and a beautiful oasis of peace and tranquility with easy access to the stunning beach at the Royal Fairmont and a little further to all the facilities and restaurants at Holetown.I would recommend a car if you want to go further afield. Everything about our holiday was wonderful and made even more special by No5 Porters Court.Already planning our return trip

Fabulous Holiday Villa

My friends and I have been coming to Barbados for many years and have spent each of our holidays in a self catering villa. 5 Porters Court is right up there as one of the best places we have stayed. The location is perfect, very close to the beach and some lovely bars/restaurants. It is also very convenient for transport to both Holetown and Speightstown.The villa itself is very tastefully presented and extremely comfortable and welcoming. We don't always like to go out in the evening and love to cook so it was a delight to find the kitchen so well equipped. The villa was also spotlessly clean. We will definitely be returning.Kate Rossiter

We feel most fortunate to have been able to spend a week in peaceful surroundings and superb accommodation in number 5 Porters Court. Such a perfectly equipped property, everything so cleverly thought of. Newly modernised showers, the most comfortable bedding and spotlessly clean.

A great stay at Porters Court.

We just loved our stay at Porters Court. Tracy gave us lots of helpful information before we arrived and everything we could possibly need was there - beautifully cool and comfortable patio, very short walk to the beach, easy access to local buses (great fun), a pool and, as an extra bonus, lovely Veronica who came three times a week to clean, change the towels and generally look after everything.

Lovely Villa

The villa is exactly as described - in very good condition with tasteful and comfortable furnishings. The membership of the beach club is great and we used it most days as the pool is a little small and sometimes busy with the guests from other villas. We would certainly visit again.

Palm Cottage 5 at Porters Court is perfectly located for access to the beach, shopping and dinning.

Porters Court is a well maintained block of cottages directly across from the beach. Palm Cottage 5 provides access to the Fairmont’s Beach Club for your beach chairs, food and drink. You don’t need to go anywhere but it is also in a perfect starting point to explore Barbados. A perfect experience!

The experience was first rate from start to finish! The host was highly attentive to our needs, the villa including the surrounding property was charming and very well appointed with everything you’d need, housekeeping (Veronica) was meticulous (and friendly) and the location was a very short walk away from the beach where access is allowed to the Fairmont Royal Pavilion beach club. Access to shopping/groceries is 5 minute taxi ride away and a handful of restaurants are within walking distance. All in all, we highly recommend 5 Porters Court as a base where you can simply relax or explore all that Barbados has to offer. Highly recommended!

A dream villa.

Villa Number 5 at Porters Court was the most perfect little villa one could possibly wish for.Immaculately clean and beautifully furnished.On arrival we were welcomed with a wonderful array of food and drinks to help us through our initial two days. Our housekeeper was the kindest, warmest and most helpful and fun lady and we always looked forward to seeing her 3 times a week. Our host kept in touch with us to make sure we had everything we needed. I could go on and on but suffice to say we had the most wonderful time staying at #5 and would recommend this villa to anyone who is looking for a first class holiday home.Aileen and David Weston.

Hidden Gem

This property is as advertised. Great for family of 4 and ideally located just a few mins from the Fairmont Beach Club. The check in process was seamless and the instructions were so easy to follow that we let our 11 year daughter took us through it. Both Kelly the property manager and Veronica the housekeeper were extremely pleasant and always available. They really made us feel like we were home away from home. Tracy the owner was also exceptional with communicating with us and making sure that everything met our needs. We utilized the kitchen and the grill a few times when we did not want to go out for dinner or lunch. We also took a short bus trip into Holetown to Massy, the supermarket to get some food supplies. Riding on the public bus was a great experience for my kids. I would really recommend staying at this location. It has everything that you could need and ask for. Oh, the pool was a nice touch for lazy days when you do not want to make a trip off property.

The photos don`t do the property justice. We had a lovely relaxing stay in a great cottage style property. The pool was right outside the patio area and Tracey provided everything that was needed during our hols, from beach towels to the lovely Veronica who kept the place in tip top condition. There was only two of us but the cottage would comfortably accommodate four. Thanks Tracey, will be back

About the host

Hosted by Mrs Tracy Palmer

Host profile image
In May 2017 we realised our dream of owning our own property in Barbados. Since then we have spent time making it a comfortable home from home in paradise. We live in the UK and aim to spend as much time as we can in our second home. We hope to share it with you!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Porters Court because of the charm of the villa which is built in the traditional chattel house style with wooden floors and high pickled wood ceilings. We also enjoy being very close to the Lonestar restaurant and JuJu's beach bar, two of our favourite places for sunset drinks on the beach!

What makes this property unique

The location is perfect and just across the road from the Fairmont Royal Pavilion where we enjoy the beach club. It is very easy to get around as the bus stops are just outside the gate and
BD$ 3.50 will take you anywhere on the island.
