Had everything one needs aircon tv spacious car park lovely location very nice !
Good host clean comfortable beds !
Really nice place enjoyed it very much !
We had a great time. The location is quiet and private. 2 bedrooms with a living room and kitchen. Enclosed front porch and a paved back yard. Close to Speightstown and several beaches. We would stay there again. Driving up from Speightstown you have to be careful cause the gully area beside the road is quite deep. Great spot!

We're so glad you had a great stay and enjoyed the peaceful location, comfortable space, and easy access to Speightstown and the beaches. Your note about the gully is much appreciated—it’s always great to share helpful tips with future guests.
I would host them again.
We’d be happy to host you again anytime. Safe travels, and we hope to see you back soon!

87 Matilda Ville holds a very special place in my heart. Named in honor of my beloved thegrandmother, Matilda, who passed away at the age of 87, the villa celebrates her legacy and the warmth she brought into our lives.

Why they chose this property
The reason I chose The Whim is deeply rooted in my cherished childhood memories.

These experiences have left a lasting mark on my heart, making The Whim more than just a neighborhood—it’s a place filled with nostalgia, joy, and a profound connection to my past.
What makes this property unique
The Whim community itself adds to the home’s distinctive charm. With roughly 50 residences, the neighborhood cultivates a close-knit, welcoming atmosphere where neighbors know and support one another. This rare sense of camaraderie truly enhances the overall living experience.
