Party of 5 - lovely Villa, perfect for us (2 adults and 1 child) in the main house and our parents in the attached cottage. Had everything you needed in the kitchen, plenty of towels available, air conditioning in the bedrooms, lots of storage, and the bathrooms and showers are a very good size. Plunge pool was a bonus if you didn’t want to visit any of the main pools. Views from the terrace were outstanding, lovely to watch the sun set. The Deck on site bar/restaurant at Sugar Hill is also an added bonus. Will definitely visit again without hesitation.

Beautiful and fantastic villa. The absolute relaxing property. Marcia was a lovely host and the Fairmont resort was an added bonus with Infinity pòol, entertainment, happy hour and 10% discount for food and drinks made the stay affordable. The resort is also on the beach to top up your tan. We would stay at this villa again.

Brilliant villa & stay

This was our third time in Barbados and we had a wonderful time. The villa was exactly as pictured / expected and it was brilliant having the main pool and bar / restaurant area to enjoy too. Security was great, all staff on the complex were extremely friendly and our villa manager and owners comms was brilliant. Would really recommend!

Fabulous host, fabulous villa, fabulous manager!

Rosie and Marcia were so wonderful and made us feel right at home, they were there to answer any questions we had and made many wonderful suggestions for dinner! The beach club was a real bonus as it is difficult to park at the beaches and there was plenty of parking and beach chairs at the beach club, not to mention the wonderful lunches we had there! I highly recommend this villa and look forward to returning!

Perfect small villa with a view

Very conveniently located with ocean view. A wonderful garden with a plunge pool perfect for when you don't want to be at the stunning infinity pool at Sugar Hill or the beach at the Fairmont. All 3 bedrooms are lovely, air conditioned and the whole villa is very easy to run, We were just 3 people but it would be equally comfortable for 6.

Westholme was all we could ever want in a vacation villa. Very well equipped and comfortable. It had everything we needed including lots of games, books, DVDs.

Perfect stay on the west coast

We have stayed at Sugar Hill a few times, but always in an apartment and this was definitely our best stay ever! Now that our kids are older we wanted a bit more space and it was so nice having the garden and pool too. We felt very much at home and stayed in for dinner nearly every night as the restaurants have got very expensive. The beach club included is the absolute best thing for us - top tip is to go early 9.30 or at lunchtime/2ish as the best sunbeds near the restaurant get full up quickly during school holidays.

Beautiful Condo!!

We really enjoyed our time on Sugar Hill. The complex is beautiful with 2 amazing pools and beautiful views. The condo unit was really spacious and clean. It was nice to have A/C units in the bedrooms to keep cool at night. We needed a car to get to and from the beach but that was easy enough. It would be about a 25-30 min walk down quite a good hill and back up a big hill if we walked this everyday.

Perfect Caribbean Holiday

A family of five adults, the villa was perfect for our needs. The villa is large and airy with beautiful views to the sea and sunsets. It is close by the clubhouse, with its beautiful infinity pool and gym. The location is peaceful with cool breezes. The villa is well stocked and there was everything we needed. We had great communication with both the owner and manager who were very helpful. I would highly recommend this property as the perfect Caribbean holiday spot. A car is essential.

Peaceful, beautiful views and pools, convenient location

This was or seventh trip to Barbados and we all agree it was the best. The house and location were exactly what we were looking for and we would definitely stay again (and hopefully will). We hired a car which made everything very convenient, Holetown and beaches just 5 minutes away and the house offered a wonderful place to relax after a day exploring the island too, everyone had their own space with pretty, mature and lush gardens and we loved it. We didn’t want or need anything, the house has is well equipped. We visited at a quiet time of year so it felt like we had the entire estate to ourselves. Stunning pools too. For us it was perfect!

The villa was lovely, clean and had a well equipped kitchen (important to us, as we like to cook on vacation). The check-in process was very smooth and Marcia was a wonderful host. We very much enjoyed The Deck, which is the onsite restaurant/bar - it was nice to have that option when we didn't want to drive to go out for drinks. We also enjoyed the plunge pool and two other pools nearby, which we had to ourselves most of the time. If you enjoy birds and wildlife, we saw a wonderful variety of birds (including parakeets) a monkey family and fireflies. Our only complaint is that the listing said it had a BBQ (under popular amenities); however, when we arrived there wasn't one available. This was disappointing as we were planning to go fishing while we were there and wanted a BBQ to grill the fish afterwards. It has since been removed from the listing, according to our host. It would also be nice to have screens on the kitchen windows as it gets hot in there but the birds like to fly in if you have the windows open. Otherwise, a great stay and would recommend.

Hi Caryn Thank you very much for your review and for your kind comments about your stay i’m really pleased you enjoyed your overall time. I’m sorry for any confusion regarding the barbecue while it appeared in the property description at the time of your booking. I just like to clarify that l haven’t actually ever had a barbecue at the villa it seems this was an error in the listing which im now correcting to avoid any future misunderstanding. I completely understand this may have been disappointing if you were expecting one so thank you for bringing it to our attention Regarding the wildlife. Barbados is known for its beautiful natural surroundings and the birds can certainly be quite lively. As is typical for properties in the area we don’t have screens on the kitchen window so we do recommend keeping them close when preparing food to avoid any curious visitors. That said we really appreciate your feedback will take it into consideration. Thank you again for your helpful comments and we do hope to welcome you back again in the future. Warm regards, Rosie. -

Beautiful tropical villa

A beautifully kept, white painted tropical villa with fans everywhere to keep you cool upstairs and downstairs. The Villa provides everything you need with basics kindly provided to last before you are able to go shopping. Gardens all beautifully kept and plunge pool and sun loungers a bonus. Marcia super helpful and in touch to check all is well. Lovely to have the two big pools to use aswell as the restaurant, gym and tennis courts. All of this just a drive up the hill from gorgeous beach, shops and restaurants! To sum it all up ….. perfect!

We had an amazing time in this beautiful villa and hope to be back next year. I can not fault this property in any way at all. The location is very peaceful with beautiful views overlooking the ocean and the sunsets are stunning. There are two large pools to use on the estate and we had a private pool at the villa. The rooms are really spacious and the villa is equipped with everything you need to a very high standard. The beach club passes are a huge bonus. I would definitely reccomend hiring a car.

Perfect location and house

This was our first overnight stay in Barbados. Sugar Hill is a really perfect location. It’s a quiet residential area but has nice sea views and is a very short drive into town. The amenities at Sugar Hill are really nicely maintained with tennis, playground, gym, huge pool and super convenient restaurant and bar at the pool. The house itself is really well maintained and very well equipped in the kitchen. The plunge pool was a great touch and we used it more than we expected. The owners are extremely responsive and helpful. Use of the beach club was convenient, but it was quite busy - although we travelled on a very busy week on the island. Would definitely stay here again!!
