Outstanding Condo

We loved this condo. It was perfect for the 3 of us. Easy access. Met by Sarah, who showed us round. The bedrooms large and bright. The lounge beautifully set out and the huge balcony was just what we like on holiday. The view of the ocean was just gorgeous. Condo was equipped with everything we needed. We moved to the Gap after 1 week but we just wanted to pick up this condo and take it with us. Thankyou Jude. It was perfect!

Another Awesome Visit!

We just spent our second January at the beautiful Coco de Mer. The sunsets on the beautiful terrace were fantastic. The layout of the unit is perfect for two couples. Jude is a great host. She responds very quickly to any concerns. Already looking forward to our third visit!

Great Location

Clean and safe. Constant tropical breeze through the living area and kitchen made the house temperature very comfortable. Location was perfect, as it was easy to walk to bars, restaurants and the beach. A/C in the bedroom took a little bit of time to figure out how best to adjust. Sarah was spot on with all of her suggestions.

Marvelous Vacation

We stayed three weeks in that wonderful location which is the perfect spot in a quiet area, wonderful furnished you feel really like being home. a big terrace to watch spectacular sunsets and everything is just in walking distance, the beach , nice restaurants, groceries etc. Good updates from the owner and things we should be aware.

Coming Back Next Year

We are coming back next year! The apartment was great for us and we look longingly at the photos of the blue caribbean ocean taken from the balcony... Speightstown takes you back in time and we miss all the street stalls with the fresh mangoes pawpaw and bananas which we made smoothies with for breakfast! Thank you for a special holiday in beautiful Barbados.

A very nice condo with a great location!

We enjoyed our stay at this condo. The location was good and we were within walking distance to many restaurants and shops. There is a small beach right across the road from the condo but just a short walk north and you are graced with the beautiful Heywoods Beach. We also spent time at Mullins Beach because there are lounge chairs to rent. The only thing that I would suggest for this condo would be to invest in some better beach chairs and maybe stock the kitchen with some essentials (pepper, saran wrap, etc.) Some other condos that we have been to also will leave some non perishable things from previous users that didn't get used.

Beautiful apartment in relaxing beach town

We stayed at Coco de Mer for one week and wish we could have stayed longer. The apartment is just as well-kept, spacious, and beautiful as it appears in the photos. The balcony overlooking the beach was our favorite spot to relax in the morning and in the evening watching the sunsets. The Speightstown fish market is a short walk away and a great place to get fresh fish to cook. We did our grocery shopping at the two nearby super markets also in walking distance and bought fresh bread at the local bakery. There are beachfront restaurants within walking distance, but we chose to cook and eat the majority of our meals on the balcony. If you are looking to stay in a less touristy area and experience the local Bajan culture Speightstown is perfect. We took the bus a couple of times from the nearby terminal, but it can take an hour or more to reach destinations in the South of the island. There are plenty of beaches close to Coco de Mer. We swam in the beach directly in front of the apartment, but it can be rocky. Just a short 3 minute walk there is a long stretch of beach in front of various hotels that is perfect for swimming and also has shaded areas. This was our first time in Barbados and we would definitely come back and happily stay at Coco de Mer again.

The Yaya's from Canada

Speightstown was a delightfully quiet town. Jude was there to meet us upon arrival and available anytime we had questions. The town is easy to walk around and everything you need is within walking distance of the apartment. The bus station is a 5 minute walk away where you can go anywhere and everywhere on the island for $2 Barbados. Labush, Wave Riders, Orange Street Grocers and Jumas all have excellent food and great prices. The small bakery across from Orange Street Grocer has the most delicious bread! Fruit and vegetable vendors line the streets in the morning. A must do in our opinion is the Cool Runnings Catamaran Cruise out of Bridgetown....snorkelling with the green sea turtles was amazing! The beach across the street from the apartment gave us refuge from the heat and the stunning sunsets from the deck every night were a sight to behold! We kept our neighbors amused with our antics on the beach and came home with some wonderful memories of our stay in Barbados. Don't miss out on the Bathsheba Rocks or Harrison Caves all marvels of wonder! Everything in the apartment was fantastic it is very well furnished and set up for all of your needs. We all were in need of quiet and relaxation and we got it here in Speightstown. Everyone here was so friendly and delightful!! We hope to come back again someday.

We had a wonderful 2 weeks staying at White Sands. Upon arrival we were met by wonderful Sarah whose passion and meticulous explanations about the property were invaluable. She really took immense care of us and offered her number in the event of any issues and recommendations for restaurants etc. Thank you Sarah, we were so lucky to have your wisdom. The house was exceptionally comfortable, beds were great. Everything worked as you would expect. A suggestion that having some toilet paper and light bulbs on hand would be great if they are placed somewhere prominently and if I had to flag anything, it was that there were a few lamps with no working bulbs and some fans that didn't work, otherwise, everything else was great. We arranged for the maid to come by most days (Angela) and she provided great service. Lovely terrace overlooking the sea and beaches, very quiet even though we were there at Christmas. What was nice at the property were all the little extras that someone thought about to make us feel as though we were staying in a home vs a commercial establishment such as a decorated Christmas tree and small decorations around the home....super, so nice to see that someone was so looking out for us. Kitchen was well supplied in equipment to conjur us 3 course meals. Speightstown offer a couple of super markets within walking distance, otherwise you have to hire a taxi to go to the well-stocked Massy super market about 20-25 mins away. We would def stay again.

Speightstown penthouse

This was the first time we had stayed at Coco de Mer, although we know the area pretty well. The apartment was excellent. Amazing sunset views from the terrace, lots of space all very tastefully decorated and furnished and ( importantly) the beds were very comfortable! Everything worked and all the equipment you could want, and more, for a self catering holiday was there. No hesitation in recommending this as a great place to stay!

Special Speightstown trip

The property was more than what we expected. Yes the photos show it superbly, but the feel of the place was amazing. My wife and 2 friends shared the property, initially we had some concerns about being on top of each other however, this quickly was dismissed as the layout almost felt like 2 different places, with its downstairs bedroom and bathroom facilities. Location - perfect. We know the area so was always comfortable, anything you wanted was within easy strolling distance. Absolutely will be back. Loved it!!!

Beautiful apartment

The apartment is very spacious and comfortable. It benefits from being on a corner so the breeze flows through the apartment on a hot day. The air conditioning in the bedroom is a welcome addition and the bed was very comfortable. We really liked Speightstown. It felt a little more authentic than some of the resorts, whilst still having a number of nice restaurants. The highlight was the beach opposite and the snorkelling. Although it’s a relatively small beach, it often felt like our own private beach and you can snorkel safely from shore.

Not A Good Experience

Property is located right across from small beach front. A/C only in bed rooms and the WiFi only works upstairs. We could barely get TV to work in the family room. Upon arrival we were met by House Keeping not property manager. Upon Departure we weren’t met by anyone. During the stay of 8 nights we had an issue with downstairs bathroom and I items come up missing from the secured property. I find that kinda funny but overall I wouldn’t stay in this location or at this property again.

From the moment we met Sarah the housekeeper to when we left, everything about Coco de mer was fantastic. The property is beautifully furnished and very well equipped, with everything you could possibly need. The view from the balcony is stunning and the beach could not be much closer. The local restaurants and shops are all within an easy stroll. We had a wonderful holiday and will definitely stay at Coco de mer again when we return to Barbados.

Heavenly Paradise

This is an absolutely picture perfect flat down to the smallest details. The views are outstanding, the breeze kisses your skin all day and the birds sing to you whilst the sound of the lapping ocean sends you to another world The photos don’t do it justice. The beach is like your own private space. Sometimes you may see two other people or a small family, but most of the time it’s yours. Speightstown still has that original Bajan charm. The people are lovely and it’s quiet. There is an excellent restaurant across the street and two more down the road. There are shops for all your essentials in walking distance as well as a local fish market. The house manager, Sarah is extremely helpful and goes the extra mile. The flat has a great kitchen with everything you need to cook an excellent fish stew or any other dish I can’t recommend it more and I hope we will be able to return next year.

What a shame… sadly not for me again.

A delightful location, but…..the property was way too hot to enjoy the great benefits on offer. The air conditioning in the sitting room was I understand intentionally switched off. I assume to save money. Mobile fans did not compensate. Keeping the patio doors open for the breeze was totally inadequate and this penny pinching, spoilt our stay. Such a shame. The heat was at times so hot - the only place of escape was the air conditioned bedroom. Which was hardly the place to constantly be. Also, the barking dogs in the neighbouring property were an audible evening nuisance which the delightful and very helpful housekeeper tried to address.

Wonderful apartment...perfect location...

The property is lovely, exactly as it says in the description. Views were better than in the photos and the sounds of waves is something we will miss. The location is a stones throw from the beach, very peaceful but within walking distance of shops, bars and restaurants. Local & co is a lovely spot for dinner and we would recommend lunch at the Animal flower cave, in the north of the island (a 20 minute drive) The views are stunning! For a chilled out drink try Caboose it's a 2 min walk near Heywoods beach a quirky little bar with a boat as it's focal point! As with most properties there were a couple of minor hiccups but these were resolved very quickly. Sarah (the property manager) and Jude were very responsive to anything that we asked them. Nothing was too much trouble. We would highly recommend and will definitely be back
