From the time we made our reservation through the day we left regretfully for home we had open communication with Richard, the owner and Tricia, our host. Not enough can be said about the home and its location to anything and everything Holetown has to offer. Walking distance to the beach, grocery store, shopping, restaurants and local nightlife made it the highlight of our stay along with the private backyard oasis with covered seating area and in-ground pool. We thoroughly enjoyed our 7 day stay at Villa Cerise and highly recommend it and looking forward to returning. Thank you so very much to Richard and Tricia for providing us with a fabulous vacation in Barbados!

Great location, convenient to walk to the beach and many local restaurants and shops. Villa has a lovely pool and garden, and everything you need for a happy stay in the west coast of Barbados. It also has beach chairs you can take to the beach which is a really nice touch! Owner responds promptly to any questions or requests and property manager is very helpful. House is spotlessly clean!
Perfect spot for morning coffee.

Great location, lovely property

We stayed at this villa with two friends for two weeks, perfect location being very near the beach and also Massy’s supermarket just round the corner. Exterior looks are deceiving but beautifully modernised inside. The facilities were fantastic including swimming pool, which was great for a cool off as soon as we got back from the beach, nice garden, big bbq, washing machine, plenty of hot water, American fridge, air conditioning in the bedrooms - the quietest we’ve ever known. Amazing outside covered area for eating and also a comfortable chilling area which we used all the time. We would definitely recommend.

Two weeks of paradise!

We have had a ball here, the proximity of everything to the house was fantastic, We loved the property and it was ideal for our needs, pool, bbq, cooking facilities etc. The upkeep of the property from pool cleaners, gardeners and housekeepers while we here was fantastic also. It was our first trip to Barbados and it won't be our last. The pace of life and the lovely local people really suits us, and we have had the opportunity to do lots of things on offer. Whenever we are coming back we will be in contact with you. Your attention to detail and frequent messages have been great. There are not many hosts that do as much as you do.

Our favorite stay!

This was our 4th time in Barbados, and we know Holetown very well. This was the best property we had ever stayed at! Villa itself is impeccable and spotless - fully renovated, with all the modern amenities one could wish for. Sleeping arrangements were very comfortable with 3 Bedrooms and 3 Bathrooms. The outdoor terrace with a pool was great! Our favorite part that it was within a few steps to everything: Beach, restaurants, mall, supermarket with yummy lunches, and if course our kids favorite - swimming pool right on the beach as part of Villa membership! We enjoyed drink from the bar at the pool overlooking a spectacular sunset at the beach with a friendly members of Sunset Crest. Never crowded - but just enough to feel a part of community. Amazing stay, highly recommend it. Both owner Richard and Patricia - villa manager were extremely welcoming and helpful. Looking forward to returning there again, Thanks, Nina, Richard and 2 kids (9 and 11) (Boston)

Fully equipped villa - everything you need.

We stayed in Villa Cerise as a family of three adults. The villa is lovely and in an excellent location for shops, beach, bars and anything else you may need. Last year we stayed at a hotel and it was a nightmare for getting a sunbed by the pool, but certainly didn’t have that problem here! The pool was perfect for cooling off. We didn’t do any cooking apart from boiling eggs, but the kitchen was well equipped if needed. We did however find the washing machine very useful (need to take own detergent). The ice maker was fantastic for the rum cocktails . The garden is very well maintained. There is a large tree with a perfect horizontal branch that is shouting out for a swing. Communication was excellent with Richard and Tricia. This was our first stay in Villa Cerise and we look forward to returning.

Amazing villa fabulous location

Stayed at villa cerise for 14 days, the villa is fantastic, not sure were to start so here goes. Brilliant check in by an amazing professional lady called Trisha, excellent kitchen, fully equipped along with a large fridge freezer, lots of ice n chilled water available. Beds were so comfortable we couldn’t wait to get in. Air conditioning was in the rooms, perfect for the nights as it was very humid and hot in Barbados. Lots of storage for clothes, toiletries, iron, hairdryer in villa, smart tv, barbecue with a beautiful pool which changes colour at night. I can’t recommend this place enough, our friends thought exactly the same, enjoyed a few barbecue nights around the pool eating the fresh barracuda and tuna my husband caught. Location wise 5 mins if that to beach and all the amazing restaurants around holetown. I really do recommend villa cerise, professional and preside from booking to leaving.

Amazing location, fantastic villa, excellent host!

From the start, the owner Richard kept in touch. Every messaged was answered promptly. We were met by Tricia who was waiting at the villa, even though we were late arriving. The villa was excellent! Great indoor space, fantastic pool and garden. Cleaned halfway through by Jennifer (thank you). The pool was cleaned regularly and early enough for it to be ready for our pre-breakfast swim. The location was ideal. Close to Massey supermarket, Limegrove shopping centre, the Chattel village, plus the restaurants, bars and beach. The Sunset Crest Club was a gamechanger for us this year. Being our 8th trip to Barbados, we have never had the luxury of a seaside pool! We had a lounger, a pool and the sea all at our doorstep. Highly recommend the whole experience. Thank you so much Richard and the team. We will be back!

Fresh, bright, beautiful, convenient

We had a wonderful two-week stay with our teenage daughters and my 85-year-old mother at this amazing rental house in Barbados. Tricia, the host, was attentive, and the house had everything we needed. It's the nicest rental we've experienced on the island, the perfect size with a lush backyard and pool, and close proximity to the beach, restaurants, and stores. You would be fine staying here without a car its very convenient and everything you need is within walking distance. The well-equipped kitchen allowed us to host a delightful BBQ for extended family. The pool was a hit with my daughter who blew up a bunch of the floaties, and the beautiful beaches nearby are some of the best on the island. The house was comfortable, air conditioned and well-maintained – the pool cleaner comes twice a week. The guys who were doing maintenance on the coconut tree out front gave us a large jug of fresh coconut water from the property. Many Bajans told us that the best takeout food on the island is the lunch counter at the Massey’s near the house so we bought lunch there a few times. We'd love to return for another stay!

Second time in Barbados

A fantastic second trip to Barbados. We had stayed near to Speightstown previously but Holetown offers much more, being closer to Bridgetown, excellent off-beach snorkelling and a wide range of shops and restaurants.Cerise Villa is an ideal place to stay. The bedrooms are of a great size (2 x double, 1 x twin). The kitchen is large and well equipped. Overall the standard of furnishings (chairs, loungers, kitchen equipment etc) is high. The key factor for us was its accessibility; two minutes to a large supermarket, the town centre and the bus routes, and barely three minutes to the beach. For such convenience there is a price, and there is some noise from the road that runs behind the property but it is some distance to the back of the garden and the noise is unobtrusive.Communications with the owner were excellent. His information was helpful and he always responded the same day to my inquiries. The property manager, Tricia, is outstanding and she helped us with some minor issues a couple of times without any hesitation or delay.We loved it here. My family (my wife and I, and two adult sons) all agreed we would happily return. Barbados is a great island and this is a great place to stay.

Richards Villa

Communication with Richard was excellent before our stay. He really has thought of everything and all your needs. The villa has everything anyone could ask for. Check in was easy and Tricia was lovely who checked us in. The outside space and pool is incredible and we spent most of our time here. There's air con in each bedroom. Smoke storage space and towels provided. The pool was cleaned during our stay. As was the whole villa and beds changed. The villa is that well located I reckon you could be swimming in the see in 3 minutes from bedroom to beach. It's in a fantastic location. I'd recommend this villa to anyone it really is fantastic and if youre thinking of booking it I strongly encourage you too. You will not be dissapointed. The WiFi is fantastic. The ice machine in the fridge freezer was a god send. Like I said Richard the owner really has thought of everything in the villa. The garden is beautiful the decking area is massive. We had such a good time and really is a credit to the owner. Thank you for letting us stay in your holiday home and we will certainly be back. We wouldn't stay anywhere else in Barbados.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location

Nice house but poorly managed

When we first arrived the grass in front and the back was overgrown and someone came to cut 2 days later there was left over paint can and used paint trays and bags of garbage left around the house. The first night we realized the hot water was turned off , so we’re able to get it on however there was a link and when the property manager came with plumbers they did not fix the leak but fiddled around on the roof then told us there is nothing they can do the system is too old and not strong enough for the amount of people the house can accommodate. This meant there was only enough hot water for one shower the length of our stay. The pool was not maintained at all filled with branches and leaves , when my 10 year old went in he cut himself on his foot , it was green by the time we left. Due to fact no one came the entire time we were there.

Hi Chad Thank you for your feedback. Being our very first guest in our brand new renovated villa, feedback is very important to us to make any improvements to ensure the best stay for all our future guests. In regards to the hot water, me & my family did personally stay in the villa at full occupancy to ensure we provided the best experience for future guests and we never had any issues with the water. That said I know Barbados experienced a lot of cloudy / rainy days when you stayed and customer feedback is very important to me so I ordered additional solar panels and an upgraded water heater following your comments. Our most recent pictures from the guests show the garden in perfect order, apologies this was not as you experienced it. Gardening is close to our hearts, as a result as part of the renovations, we have invested & installed nearly 200 additional plants which will quickly grow into the most beautiful garden. The pool is cleaned every week as part of its regular maintenance, I did however discuss your feedback with the team and they confirmed that they did come just before you arrived, their scheduled day during your visit and that day you left. During times of heavy rain this dilutes the chemicals in the pool and it can have an impact on the water quality but this is soon fixed as part of the regular visits. As you are aware you were my very first customer after a complete refurbishment of the villa and we thought we had everything tidied up but the painter who was touching up a few last bits up did leave a paint pot and roller tray down the side of the villa but this has now been removed. Since your last stay someone else has stayed in the villa and they had a great time and provided a 5 star review. Once again, thank you for your valuable feedback as this will help us grow and improve things for future guests. All the best for the future, Richard
