Wonderful Stay

We have just returned from a wonderful stay in Barbados. We could not have been happier. The location of 1 Smugglers Cove is simply hard to beat. We loved being directly on the beach and also being able to walk to Sandy Lane and some of the other restaurants. Ollie our housekeeper was amazing. She was always smiling and the kids loved her. Both Yvonne and Julie from Exceptional Villas were also great. We will definitely be back

Couldn't have been better

We have just returned from 1 Smugglers Cove. It was our best family vacation so far. Everyone was perfect from the moment Ollie our housekeeper met us at the door to the moment she waved good bye to us. We loved the location and the fact that it was on the ground floor was a big plus as we could run in and out of the ocean whenever we wanted. It was literally steps from our door. It was also great to be able to walk along the beach to all the different restaurants and to Sandy Lane. One day we took the bus to Holetown which was fun. The stop was right outside the door of the villa. We cannot wait to return. Thank you Yvonne for suggesting it to us.

unbeatable location

We split our time between two villa rentals this trip - absolutely loved this! super location on Paynes bay beach - we walked every morning down to Sandylane beach & swam & came back to a delicious breakfast prepared by the lovely housekeeper Ollie. She made us feel so welcome. Loved the terrace - such space & easy access onto the beach - the beach butler even brought us cold towels! Would highly recommend.

Fabbbbb

We had a truly wonderful time at this villa. The view was absolutely incredible and the service we received from Niamh and Julie at Exceptional Villas was excellent. We found that the villas bedrooms were all about the same and that worked very well for us as we were five couples. We also loved the fact that we could have access to the facilities at the Eden Rock Hotel. Overall we were very satisfied and hope that we can return someday

Wonderful

We have just returned from a great holiday in 1 Smugglers Cove. It is a fabulous property and I cannot speak highly enough about Ollie the Housekeeper. She went over and beyond the call of duty and was amazing with our kids. She is also a great cook and her breakfasts and lunches are great. The thing we enjoyed most about staying at this property was the location. It is on the ground floor and we were literally steps from the sea. Couldn’t have been better and hope to go back some day.

Fantastic location right on the beach

Fantastic location right on the beach at Paynes bay. Our housekeeper was so sweet and we could not have asked for more. I loved the villa and it was spotlessly clean. Yvonne and Julie were a great help in planning our vacation.

We have been to barbadose many times staying at diffrent houses and resorts and loving it every time however ,have to say our trip was made by far superior by smugglers cove staff Oly ,our house keeper was a treasure, she made us feel like home with her delicious cooking and warm welcome . Beach service was made amazing by David and his staff Every morning 50 meters of swim or kayak ride and you are feeding the green turtles Snorkeling , beautiful beach and turtles all infront of the residence . Place was walking distance to many resturants ( not that we Felt the need ,having Olys amazing jerk fly fish) We will be back again for sure Smugglers cove was one of a kind due to Flawless service , beautiful location and extreme attention to detail D & S

A great time

Hi Yvonne Thanks for following up. We had a great time in Barbados and Smuggler’s Cove. It is always relieving when the property viewed in person matches the photos. We were very happy with the property and enjoyed the location - all aspects of our stay were exceptionally well planned (including car hire which was very seamless as well). So thanks to you and your team for the effort and attention on the planning side.

Gorgeous place

Yvonne -We loved Smuggler's ,the place was gorgeous and the situation perfect, we loved being on Payne's Bay - it's such a nice beach - I'd forgotten how good it was! Having an onsite cook was a great luxury, it meant we didn't have to faff about with preparing food:) Most importantly the kids absolutely loved it. Thanks again for organising it all and recommending it. Lisa
