About this property

**SUMMER SALE** Stunning 3 Bed Child Friendly Villa, Private Pool. St James,

Hummingbird House is situated on the idyllic West coast of Barbados in a quiet cul-de-sac overlooking the Caribbean Sea. The whole house and gardens are detached, very private, secure and fully fenced. Lined with beautiful bougainvillea it is set amidst a gorgeous, colourful and immaculately landscaped garden with palm trees as well as a mango, lime and cherry tree. Sun-loungers surround the large private pool which is exclusively for your use. Hummingbird House is only accessible via our gated driveway, to which only the guest has the combination.
It’s just a 5 minute walk to the Caribbean Sea where water sports, picnic areas and restaurants can be found, as well as the local supermarket, chemist and deli. The house boasts 3 large air-conditioned bedrooms 2 with en-suite bathrooms. The master bedroom opens on to a balcony with seating and breathtaking views of the ocean. The ground floor offers a fully equipped kitchen as well as a laundry area. The large lounge and dining area with vaulted ceilings lead onto a covered veranda, which, with its great views of the gardens and the ocean, is ideal for Al fresco dining. There is also an outside play area for the children. A maid will visit each week to ensure you are comfortable and to change linens etc… and a house manager will be on hand to meet and greet you and help with any questions or issues you may have throughout the duration of your stay. We are situated just a few minutes from Sandy Lane and their amazing golf course and just 10 minutes from Holetown heading North and Bridgetown to the South. There are a number of attractions available for adults and children alike, including swimming, jet skiing, scuba diving, boating, tropical island gardens, and catamaran trips... to name but a few.

We had a great time staying at the family-friendly villa and were very well looked after by the lovely manager Jackie, ably assisted by the wonderful Annette, Richard and anonymous pool guy who ghosts in and out brilliantly.We had everything we needed and the garden and pool are particularly excellent. The whole booking process was very smooth and we were met personally on arrival, which was a great stress relieverIt's a shame we had to leave, but am sure we will be back at some point !Thanks !!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the garden and pool were amazing, all the staff were great - Jackie, Annette and Richard. Any small hiccup was dealt with very quickly and efficiently.if you don’t have a car, the hill could be a challenge - we are both in our 80s and could manage it! Many thanks for a great stay.

Jackie the house manager was on hand at all times , a charming lady who provided as requested our first meal on arrival and an excellent goodie bag to get us going, inc 6 of the local beers ! I can highly recommend hummingbird house and hope to return again soon.

What is advertised is what you get and the pool is a godsend. But the only moan i have is the steep hill to get up if you go out walking. Hiring a car is a must to get around, but buses are frequent and cheap. Had a great time

Hummingbird House, Prospect, St James.

Great property, Plenty of space to move around, Feel like being at home, we felt comfortable immediately. Lovely size pool and gardens. Great view of the sea and sunsets. I would advise hiring a car to get around, shopping, site seeing etc, we like that you can use UK plugs in the extension leads. We told friends & family about the property and pass on details, because they are interested in staying at Hummingbird house when they visit Barbados. Highly recommend.

Retiree getaway

Manager, Jacqueline was very accommodating and helpful. Unfortunately a few members of our party contracted Dengue due to the excessive rain which is exceptional for January resulting in more mosquitoes that carried the virus. A suggestion would be to install screens on doors to minimize mosquitoes entering your beautiful home. Hummingbirds was a beautiful home. Having a pool was great.

Superb

I was sceptical when we booked, because the listing looked too good to be true. We needn't have worried, the house is perfect. The downstairs bedroom was ideal for our son, as he has mobility issues. It's comes with everything you could need, even laundry detergent! Annette the cleaner is a joy, the garden is immaculate, the pool, while showing some signs of age, was crystal clear, and great to cool down in after a day in the sun. The location is perfect for the west coast of the island, a car is recommended as there's a cheeky hill to get up from the main road Couldn't recommend it enough. Neil the host is very proactive and friendly, accommodating, even organised some shopping for us, very handy. Love it, we will be back

Perfect Location, accommodation and service !!

I just wanted to pass on my thanks from myself and the family for the stay at Hummingbird. We had a fabulous time – the villa was fantastically equipped – handy when Virgin break your pushchair on the way out ! We didn’t want for anything and Jackie and Annette were fabulous – truly made us feel at home. The gardening and pool team likewise – lovely people who did a great job. The location is superb and we felt safe at all times. We were truly sorry to leave but back to the real world until next time ! Thanks again to you and Jackie and please pass on our thanks and appreciation to the other team also.

Fantastic

Hummingbird House was exactly as described and shown in the photos. It was the perfect base for our holiday being near beaches, shops and facilities on the West Coast. It was equipped with more things (cool bags/ice packs, etc) than I have previously experienced in a rental to make self catering easier. The pool was brilliant for days we didn’t want to go to a beach and the villa had enough space for all of us to relax. We were well looked after by Jackie, she couldn’t have been more helpful, answering queries promptly and checking in on us regularly to make sure everything was fine. And her staff were friendly and polite. This will be our first choice if (when) we return to Barbados.

Perfection

Lovely villa with pool and gardens, in a quiet area which is Convenient for south and west coast. We hired cars for 2 weeks so easy to get about. Jackie the housekeeper is lovely and very attentive, alaso the cleaner Annette was a lovely lady. We were 2 mins drive from La Cabane where we spent a lovely evening food was perfect especially the lamb. We,ve been a few times to Barbados so had already done the usual sightseeing places. We know our favourite places now. But we hadnt been to Harbour Lights so decided to try it. So glad we did as we all enjoyed even our two granddaughters ages 5 and 7. The entertainers worked so hard to put on a show which we all enjoyed. Hoping to be back next year maybe for a longer stay.

Lovely villa with all amenities you could need.

Our stay at hummingbird was lovely. The villa has everything you need and has a beautiful garden and pool. It really felt like a home from home. The beds were so comfortable and air con was lovely at night. Jackie was amazing and was on hand if we ever needed anything. Full of knowledge and willing to help. We didn't need anything though as the villa is packed with everything you could need. Monkeys and chickens visited often, and the sunset view was lovely. We hired a car which was handy to get around, there is a bit of a hill to get to the villa but most people could manage it. The villa felt totally safe as well, not that we felt unsafe in Barbados though. Wonderful place and wonderful people. Would definitely return and would stay at the villa again if we did.

Home Away From Home

We thoroughly enjoyed our 12 nights at Hummingbird. Felt like we were at home. The house was well equipped. Loved the pool; the layout of the house; the neighbourhood was quiet and safe with friendly neighbours. We enjoyed the visiting wildlife: monkeys, roosters, chickens, black sheep and horses. Great location for walking to the grocery store and beaches. Also taxis were easily available in the neighbourhood. Excellent meals provided by Wesley, one of the local taxi drivers. Both Neil and Jackie were very good to deal with being prompt and attentive to our needs. We appreciated Jackie bringing in our requested groceries so that we could eat in on our first night. Annette, the maid did a good job of cleaning the house.

Heavenly Hummingbird!

What a fantastic place to stay! Walking distance to the beach, restaurants and local shop. Hummingbird House makes for the perfect destination for a relaxing retreat on the stunning Platinum Coast. The house had all the amenities you could need, including a blender for your own cocktail concoctions to sip by the huge pool and looking out over to the aqua marine Caribbean Sea, watching the glorious sun set - All whilst sitting out at poolside in the stunning mature exotic gardens. Neil, the property owner communicated everything we needed ahead of our trip and Cathy the property manager was second to none whilst on the island. If you get the chance you should definitely take Cathy up on her Coconut Curried Shrimp or the Macaroni Pie and Wings. - both were excellent quality and value at $120BD and $100BD respectively. We would return in a heartbeat.

Fantastic house in a great location

We stayed at Hummingbird House for 10 days in November and had a fantastic time. The house manager is lovely and very helpful, the house was perfectly clean with great A/C in the bedrooms, and the pool is fantastic. Loads of wildlife around you as you stay, great views and a good location for accessing the rest of Barbados! The house is a great location for accessing the West Cover and with a taxi you can get to places like Harrisons Cave within 20-30 minutes. If you're booking trips around the island with a transfer you can get picked up from Waves about five minutes walk away, there is also a well stocked supermarket within walking distance and both Bridgetown/Holetown are 10-15 minutes by taxi/car. There's a couple of bus stops within five minutes walk, the buses are regular and cheap to get around. There's a lovely beach at the bottom of the road, you can see the sea from the house and several excellent restaurants (La Cabane at Batt's Rock Beach, QB Bistro/The Cliff, and Il Tempio) within 15-20 minutes walk or a few minutes by car. You can go paddleboarding at Paynes Bay and I'd recommend the Submarine trip near Bridgetown!

Wonderful home, very child friendly

We stayed at this property with four adults and two children. The home was large enough so that we didn't feel on top of each other. As we were there in Sept/Oct, it was very hot and humid. The air conditioning in the bedrooms made sleep possible and comfortable. The furnishings and beds were very nice, and it was especially helpful to have a washer/dryer for all the laundry children produce. The pool and play-set was lovely for the kids during the day when we were home and the adults enjoyed the pool after dark to cool off. As we did not rent a car, we were pleased that the home was well-situated to a couple of beaches and there was frequent and reliable public transportation on the main road. There is also a grocery store within a 5-10 minute walk. If we wanted to go somewhere further, William, a taxi driver down the road, was extremely nice and helpful. All-in-all, we had a wonderful experience and would stay there again. Now if someone could do something about the mozzies...
