While searching for a 60th birthday celebration holiday for my wife, we discovered The Wicket at White Sands and booked it for 10 days. It exceeded our expectations!
Jon and Nicky were incredibly responsive, staying in touch throughout and answering all our questions. Upon arrival, Gael greeted us, handed over the keys, and walked us through everything we needed to know. She was also available to help with bookings and transport arrangements, making our stay even more enjoyable.
The Wicket is bright, clean, and tastefully furnished. As you go upstairs, the "wow" moment hits as you step into the open-plan kitchen and lounge, with the balcony offering stunning sunset sea views. The location is ideal—just a short walk to the town center and right on the beach.The property is spacious, luxurious, and well-equipped with everything you need, from kitchen essentials to beach chairs, umbrellas, and towels. It truly felt like a home away from home.
Speightstown is a wonderful place to explore, with a variety of restaurants. Despite visiting during a quieter season in early October, we enjoyed Tides Restaurant, Local & Co., and The Caboose, just 200 yards away. We wished we could have tried Baia, which opened two days after we left.There’s a bus station nearby with low fares ($3.50), but in hindsight, renting a car would have been convenient and affordable.Overall, The Wicket's prime location, quiet atmosphere, and breathtaking sea views made for an unforgettable experience.
