Baranga Cottage is a beautiful little haven on the east coast of Barbados. The pool and lush grounds are outstanding. We enjoyed watching the sun rise every morning while sitting at the pool. Everything was easy due to Gillian and the staff at Stoutes. She even arranged for our rental car which was seamless and easy. As this was our first time to Barbados, her advice leading up to our trip was very helpful. The bed in the master was extremely comfortable and the new soaking tub was an unexpected treat. The entire staff were warm, welcoming and helpful. From the kind landscaper to the housekeeper and the security men who stopped by to check on us daily. We felt very safe and enjoyed every second of our stay. We cannot wait to return to Barbados and to Baranga Cottage.

Hidden Jem

Beautiful Place. Great Location. First rate from the time we arrived, until we left. The beach is very close. Floated in the waves and had the beach all to ourselves. We explored the island during the day and enjoyed the pool after.

Chill Out @ Baranga

My husband and I and our two twenty-something daughters spent a relaxing week enjoying Baranga and Barbados. We loved the park-like feeling of this classic property. The over-sized pool, waterfall and gazebp were perfect hang-out spots before and after sight-seeing, shopping and dining out. The house-keeper Esther is a pro, and we enjoyed sharing jokes and observations with her as she efficiently completed her work the 3 days she was there. While we didn't walk to the beach we did have delicious meals at Dis Ole House, Champers, and Animal Flower Cave. We already miss the tradewinds, random scampering monkeys, and the distant sound of breaking waves.

Lovely stay

We enjoyed our stay. The house had plenty of room for all of us. The kitchen is smaller and a bit dated but suited our needs. We did have an issue with the stove and it was repaired promptly within a day. In room AC kept us cool at night. Laundry facilities were a great perk. The pool is amazing. It is large and well kept. The grounds of the home are amazing. We loved seeing the dogs and occasional monkey visit.The beach closest to the home is walkable but not a swimmable beach (at least not during our visit). The best beach for swimming is about 40 minutes away. This home is definitely not in a touristy area. Barbados is beautiful. We definitely enjoyed the island. We did a great snorkeling excursion with cliffsharker and island tour with Alan Highton. They were the highlight of our trip. Great house and pool. Thanks for a great stay.

Wonderful Vacation!

It’s always a crapshoot when booking a villa based on photos/listing only but we weren’t disappointed with Baranga in the least! The layout of the villa was perfect for privacy especially with each bedroom having its own ensuite bathroom. The bedrooms were ample in size and closet space was more than enough. Having individual A/C units was great since some of us preferred A/C and some didn’t. The villa was spacious, clean (thanks to Esther, a wonderfully friendly woman who keeps the villa spotless) and well-equipped though we spent very little time actually inside the villa other than to sleep and cook. Having the covered outdoor area was key as this was where we spent the majority of our time when we weren’t by the private pool which the most used area during the entire time we were there. The property itself is huge and very well looked after. There are chairs (including loungers) and tables around the pool as well as chairs and a dining table on the outdoor patio which is where we ate all of our meals. Baranga is situated in a gated community. The nightly visits from Sean & Casey (the security staff) who were just “checking in” to ensure all was well, added to the relaxed atmosphere. A car is a necessity as groceries are close by but not within walking distance. Also our favourite place to eat wasn’t within walking distance either and it’s a spot you shouldn’t miss for a memorable dinner/evening out (La Shack). Getting to/from the airport is also easy if you have a car. We’re so happy that we stayed at Baranga during our week in Barbados and look forward to a return visit in the future.

Wonderful three weeks

A peaceful location. We will miss the refreshing breeze and sounds of waves crashing on the nearby rocks and even the neighborhood monkeys scampering by. Esther, the housekeeper is a Barbados national treasure. She has earned her retirement! Guests will be very sorry to see her go.

Paradise

Baranga cottage is a gorgeous property and lacks absolutely nothing. The gardens are stunning, pool is large, clean and inviting, the outdoor spaces are both expansive and sheltered and the indoors is functional, bright and welcoming. The location is quiet with only birdsong in the morning and the sound of the surf lulling you to sleep at night. Esther the housekeeper does a wonderful job keeping the place sparkling clean and providing terrific insight into Barbados and the castle close area. Gillian and her colleagues made check in and check out painless and seamless. The area is a perfect place to walk and We did so each morning, making a 4 mile round-trip to Castle Beach. There are also convenience stores within a very easy walk as well as Dis Ole House, a splendid and delicious restaurant right at the top of the street. I can’t recommend this cottage and its property managers anymore highly!

Fantastic Pool

This is a very comfortable and enjoyable property. Can't say enough about the pool and gazebo area. The property was clean and well maintained. A great vacation overall and would come back to Barbados, loved the island.

Great Barbados vacation in a fantastic villa

We stayed at Baranga in July 2016, for 16 days. It was a perfect time. The villa is simply perfect: everything is there when you need it, the staff is super attentive and helpful, always there to help when you need, but not intrusive. They arranged everything for us: we arrived late at night with a huge delay on a Sunday night, and the taxi driver was there waiting for us, the next morning all other pending things were sorted out before 10 am, so we could only concentrate on relaxing and enjoying this beautiful villa and the beaches of Barbados. Barbados is a pretty large island, and Baranga villa is located in a strategic area, close to the beaches on the east and south part, a bit far away (45m to 1 hr drive) from those on the west. But in many cases we wondered why leave, when you have such a comfortable house there, with a large and beautiful pool and a very curated park, yes, park, not garden, surrounding it, full of tropical trees and flowers, occasionally visited by yellow monkeys and hummingbirds. We even had one day a fisherman bringing us a 10 kg barracuda he had just fished, for bargain price, that he even cut in pieces for us. If you can, plan your next vacation to include the first Monday of August, we did, following Gillian’s suggestion: you will be able to enjoy the Crop Over festival, something you will not forget all of your life! Thank you Stoute & C. staff for a perfect vacation.
