There were three couples and one single in our party. The home was well equipped for our stay and we were able to cook several meals both inside and outside. Shopping, restaurants and the beach were all a short walk making the area perfect for our needs. The host and their team were friendly, informative and quick to respond to any questions we had about the house or area in general. We would absolutely recommend this property for your trip to Barbados.

Lovely well equipped villa in perfect location

Just returned from an amazing 2 weeks in Barbados staying at Palm Tree Villa. Beautiful Villa which is well equipped with anything you could possibly need. Perfect location for shops and restaurants and Holetown beach where you can swim with stingrays close to the beach, Bus stop is very close so you can explore the island on the reggae buses. But equally lots of taxis available. Can’t wait to return

The villa was excellent. Fully equipped and excellent quality. The one thing we could have done with was an umbrella to shade while lying by the pool. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Palm Tree Villa and thank you so much for the welcome basket on arrival. It was the perfect holiday. Having the key passes to Paul Owens pool area by the sea was perfect. Thanks so much once again

Perfect Holiday in Paradise

We had a wonderful stay at Palm Tree Villa - it really is a home away from home. Communication with the property owners and the property manager were very good. We had a smooth check in and enjoyed our stay very much. The location is brilliant - a large supermarket is a few minutes walk away, as well as some local restaurants and bars. Access to the beach club is a wonderful bonus. We would recommend Palm Tree Villa as a great place to stay in Barbados.

Fantastic Stay at Palm Villa

Our family had a fantastic stay at Palm Villa. The villa itself was beautiful, clean and well equipped with everything we needed. The exterior space was beautiful and we loved spending our mornings by the pool before heading off to the beach. The location is just a short walk to the beach, restaurants and grocery store. The hosts were very friendly and communicated well with us leading up to our stay. We can’t wait to return.

Lovely villa in perfect Holetown location

My partner, friends and I had a fabulous week in this lovely villa, which is situated in Holetown within a five minute walk of the gorgeous beach. There are also some lovely restaurants, cafés and amenities in the area. We wanted for nothing during our stay and enjoyed taking dips in the small swimming pool, sunbathing in the garden as well as cooling down inside with the air conditioning mercifully running. Communication with the host and manager (not to mention the fabulous housekeeper Sandra) was always quick and easy. I would recommend this stay without question.

Best Time in Barbados

Our vacation in Barbados was wonderful. The owners, Jules and Michael, we’re warm and welcoming with excellent information well prior to our arrival on island. The villa was beautiful, well maintained, user friendly, and comfortable. We were also in an excellent location for walking to the beach, groceries, dinning, shopping and entertainment. The property manager and staff were also very helpful. Our family looks forward to returning to Barbados and Palm Tree Villa, and we will recommend highly to others. Thank you Jules and Michael for a beautiful and relaxing vacation.

Fantastic family accommodation

Lovely property which for our family of 6 adults & 1 infant worked really well. The BBQ & pool were really good & allowed us to have some really great family time whilst our baby needed to be in house. Location is great, with a wide range of restaurants to suit pocket & style. Only negative for area was high cost of taxis. They charge per person & not vehicle so a 5km trip was costing 50 US. Thanks Michael & Jules for excellent help & communication.

Beautiful villa in a perfect location. Very comfortable, well equipped and clean. Communication with the owners was nothing short of excellent. Very close to the beach, shops and restaurants. As a family of 6 with an infant it was perfect for us. We didn’t use the beach house as we had everything we needed at the villa. The house management and maintenance staff were also very helpful. Would thoroughly recommend this property to anyone looking for a holiday home on the west coast. We all had a fabulous time. Thank you Michael and Jules

Excellent host and accommodation

This property is well appointed in a great location. It is spacious, clean and well maintained. The kitchen is very well equipped and there is comfortable furnishings and beds for upto 8 adults. There is a very pleasant garden and plunge pool ideal for cooling off. The local beach is only a couple of minutes walk as is the beach club with its changing rooms toilets and sun beds. There are an array of shops bars and restaurants all within a very short walk of the property. There is also a very good supermarket very close by as well as a medical centre. It’s hard to imagine a more convenient location and a car is not necessary- however there is ample parking too at the villa too! Michael and Jules have been terrific hosts and the local team manage the property to a high standard. We had a great family holiday at the villa and we have no hesitation in highly recommending the villa.

Magnificent!

I don’t know where to start with this property. It is absolutely beautiful, I actually don’t think the pictures do it justice. It immediately felt like home, it had everything we could possibly need. Communication from Michael and Jules was wonderful, they were very attentive and made sure that they were able to meet our individual needs. We travelled with a 8 month old and they ensured that we had a suitable cot for her. In addition, we were unaware that it was a bank holiday the day after we arrived, which meant we’d be unable to buy food from the supermarket, so the hosts arranged for essential food items to be waiting for us on arrival. I can’t begin to express how grateful we were for this. Both the house manager and housekeepers were just as lovely and attentive, everyone we came into contact with with regards to this booking was absolutely wonderful. The location of the villa is so close to bars, restaurants and shops and was just perfect for us. We would absolutely stay here again and I’m just sad our trip wasn’t longer.

I could have written this review from the first evening of our arrival because the villa and location was perfect for us from the start to the end of our vacation. The pictures don’t give the villa justice. We found it to be clean, well curated and comfortable. There is a television there but no one in our party of eight adults turned it on. The pool was refreshing after a day at the beach. We didn’t get to use the bar area or barbecue grill because we were so busy eating out at nearby restaurants. Maybe next time, as we do intend to book this villa again. We were mindful to turn off the a/c units when going out for the day as we are aware of the high cost of service on the island. Special thank you to the housekeeper Deborah, she is good at what she does.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Cotton

Host profile image
We are Michael & Jules, a professional English couple who enjoy travelling and love beach holidays that offer a blend of activity and relaxation. We are both foodies and love eating out, enjoying international cuisine and sampling the local specialities.
We started choosing villa stays over hotels several years ago, finding the freedom that it offered, better suited the way we wanted to spend our holiday time, enjoying the privacy of having our own living areas and pool.
That's why we chose Palm Tree Villa! We have visited Barbados many times and love the fun and friendliness of the people we meet on this beautiful island. The sun, the sand and the Caribbean Sea collide to make Barbados a perfect location to spend time with friends and family or enjoy quite time and romantic walks along its many soft sand beaches.
We live in the UK but will visit as often as we can. When we are not staying in Palm Tree Villa we will rent or swap it for similar properties around the world.

Why they chose this property

Location, Location, Location! We wanted a property that gave us access to all that Barbados had to offer and a place that first time visitors to the island could feel comfortable, knowing that everything they need is on hand without having to hire a car if they didn't want to.
Palm Tree Villa is a short walk to the beach, shops, restaurants & bars and the beach club facilities, of The Beach House.
The villa is spacious and feels like a home from home, not a holiday rental and we have tried to make it comfortable as well as practical . It is spacious, allowing families to spread themselves and find their own space.

What makes this property unique

Palm Tree Villa was architect designed and rebuilt 10 years ago and stands out among its neighbours as the only 2 storey house on the street. The pool with waterfall and coral stone arch surround, has been beautifully designed and is a great place to relax at any time. The roof terrace, added in 2018 is a lovely additional space to enjoy.
Simply entering the house, though the gate leading straight into to the garden and onto the arched terrace feels like the entrance to the start of a great holiday
