This villa was excellent. Extremely comfortable, spacious, superbly appointed - it has everything. Its location is brilliant - nice and private. You have the sun all day on the terrace, the pool is wonderful.
The owners have thought of everything. Cool boxes with ice blocks along with sandwich boxes so you can make a picnic and take out with you. Hairdryers and hair straighteners provided. Books and games to entertain if required. CDs and music player/ipod dock and good strong WiFi.
Outside there is super quality garden furniture - two areas to dine, several sun loungers and chairs around the pool, a lovely suite of garden furniture under the veranda and a fabulous hammock in the garden to chill in.
Ceiling fans are under the veranda and in the living room area and air conditioning in all the bedrooms.
A housekeeper comes in every couple of days and keeps the villa pristine.
There is just a slight sea view in the distance and a lovely view across the golf course and the Royal Westmoreland complex.
Royal Westmoreland facilities also great. The golf buggy belonging to the villa is brilliant for getting around the site - going to the club house, the Rum Shack and tennis courts, or the gym if you are feeling energetic!
We had a hire car and the location is a short drive to Holetown and the beaches (5-10 mins).
But there is also a shuttle bus to take you to Mullins and the Royal Westmoreland beach club.
The Royal Westmoreland staff are brilliant - extremely friendly and helpful.
It was our first visit to Barbados and we loved it.
The people are so friendly and welcoming.
The location of this villa is perfect for exploring the island.
It is simply stunning and we seriously didn't want to leave.
Thank you Caroline Shaw and family.
