About this property

**** SHIMMERS ****<br> A stunning, stylish West coast villa close to Mullins beach

Shimmers is a light and airy modern townhouse style villa. This spacious 2354 sq ft home is situated in Battaleys Mews on the Platinum Coast between Holetown and Speightstown.
Nestled in a gated community of only 30 homes with 24/7 security, guests can enjoy a luxurious swimming pool area with a clubhouse and bar alongside a large, secluded garden with ample sitting and picnic areas ideal for reading, respite from the hot sun underneath mature trees and humming bird spotting!! Guests may also make use of a superb hard tennis court, a small gymnasium and a children play area.
Shimmers is an ideal spot to be based on this wonderful Caribbean island. It is a short walk from the world famous Mullins beach with its sensational shoreline, watersports and fabulous bar/restaurant with weekly live music.
A bus hop away or 5 minute drive will take you to Lone Star, arguably the most hip restaurant on Barbados. Adjacent is Santi, a truly idyllic beach and bar with food which is perfect for turtle and celebrity watching! There are many other food service establishments nearby to suit every pocket from casual street food to elegant high end cuisine. A comprehensive list of these will be available on your arrival at the property.
Offering 3 air conditioned bedrooms that sleeps 6 in comfort, Shimmers has a tranquil master bedroom with glazed doors and balcony overlooking the mature flora and garden. It has a super king 4 poster bed with muslin drapes and a huge ensuite bathroom featuring his and hers basins, a deep set bath with views onto the tropical panoply and a large walk in shower. Quality coordinating towels complete the refreshing experience!
The 2nd bedroom has a Queen size 4 poster bed and the 3rd benefits from twin beds with colourful exotic fabrics. All 3 bedrooms have fine quality linens, ample storage and wardrobes. The family bathroom has a walk in shower and is immaculately finished in marble with luxury towels.
Downstairs an entrance lobby leads to a comfortable and large open plan living area with flat screen tv, matching sofas, easy chairs and a dining table and chairs. Feature archways lead to a spacious and fully fitted breakfast kitchen with electric hob, oven and grill, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher and lots of top quality cookware, cutlery and glasses.
The living area has French style doors opening to the rear terrace with a refreshing private plunge pool - ideal for cooling off and sipping cocktails ( we even provide equipment and non breakable glasses with this purpose in mind ! ) There is an outside dining area and soft chairs overlooking a superbly maintained private garden.
There are full time staff at Battaleys Mews in the event of you having any queries and Shimmers comes with a weekly maid service which includes cleaning and change of towels and bedlinen. A twice weekly service is available as an option.
Although Barbados is considered a safe island to visit, guests, particularly those with children will appreciate that 24 hr manned security offers a peace of mind when you are a long way from home.
There can be few finer places from which to explore Barbados. Shimmers is a pristine home which is lovingly maintained by ourselves - we have been coming to the island for many years and have lived here for some time with our children attending school in Bridgetown. This first hand local knowledge led us to choose Battaleys Mews as THE place to be based on the beautiful tropical island of Barbados.
We invite you to come visit and find out for yourselves!!!

Host profile image
Hi - we are Lis and Carl and we bought our dream holiday home in October 2016. We spend a couple of months a year at Shimmers and we invite you to stay in our lovely home. We live the rest of the year in North Norfolk so we are never far from the Ocean.

Why they chose this property

Shimmers is very well appointed and has everything you will need for a marvellous stay. The Kitchen is properly kitted out so you can prepare the fresh food from the Island at the house.The house has lovely linen and towels and there are beach towels too. The bathrooms are luxurious and spacious and the property boasts two four-poster beds - a Super King in the master suite and a Queen in the second bedroom. Downstairs is mainly open plan and with the doors open to the plunge pool - the outside really does come in!
