About this property

Heritage & Heart in the Hub of Holetown

Experience a piece of Barbadian history at our cherished family bungalow. Passed down through three generations, this home captures the authentic spirit of the island while sitting perfectly in the vibrant heart of Holetown, St. James. Whether you're here for world-class beaches or local culture, our bungalow offers a rare blend of nostalgia and modern comfort.

The Space

Our bright, two-bedroom bungalow is designed for effortless tropical living. Both bedrooms are fully equipped with air conditioning to ensure a cool, restful night’s sleep. The layout is ideal for families or friends: the master suite features a private ensuite bathroom, while the welcoming second bedroom offers two twin beds (which can be converted into a King upon request).
Inside, you’ll find a full kitchen, laundry room, and high-speed Wi-Fi. The standout feature is the outdoor patio, where you can soak up the Caribbean breeze with your morning coffee or a sunset Banks beer.

An Unbeatable Location

The turquoise waters of the West Coast are just minutes away. You are within easy walking distance of the luxury boutiques at Limegrove, vibrant beach bars, and fine dining, with the local grocery store, Massy, walking distance for all your essentials. To explore the island further, we recommend Auto Haven Rentals (contact info below) for a seamless car rental experience.
For sports fans, the home boasts a truly unique backdrop: we are located directly behind a local cricket pitch. You can witness the island’s national passion firsthand from the cheers of a weekend match to the peaceful green views during the week.

Your Safety & Comfort

Your peace of mind is our priority. The property is securely gated and protected by exterior security cameras, window grates, and a lockable patio. Located in a friendly, safe neighborhood, you can truly lean into the slow pace of island life. To keep your stay breezy, an optional housekeeping service is available once or twice a week for an additional fee.
Stay where heritage meets the hearth of the West Coast. Welcome to our family home.

Great discovery

We arrived at the cottage a little after our scheduled time due to the snow and ice at Gatwick airport only to find no one to meet us with keys. A few long distance calls later and we were in and shown around. What a treasure of a find, great location and the house was exactly as the description stated. Loved our 22 night stay.

Hello Patricia, We appreciate you taking the time to express your satisfaction with our home and that you enjoyed your stay in Barbados. We are truly sorry for the unfortunate situation you encountered on your arrival. The maid (Shellon) made a terrible mistake. She should have waited for your arrival even though your flight was a bit late. We hope to have the occasion to welcome you as a guest in the near future. Elma & Eric

Good location. But very tired and dated accommodation. Door screens jammed regularly. No electric kettle and hob kettle took forever to boil.

Great location

We had a great stay here. We enjoyed the closeness to the main streets and restaurants in Holetown, which were an easy walking distance away. We loved sitting on the sun loungers in the back garden, watching the world pass by and various sports being played. We didn't feel anything we needed was missing.
