Fabulous!
Our first visit to Gail & Chris’s apartment but it won’t be the last! The apartment was equipped with everything we needed to relax immediately and the Fairmont beach passes were a real bonus. Thank you both for a perfect stay.

Beautiful accomodation in Barbados
From the moment we stepped into the villa, we knew we made a great decision. The view overlooking the pool was beautiful. The furnishings are very comfortable and the villa is well stocked. The owners have thought of everything including some welcoming supplies in the refrigerator. The communication was excellent before, during and after our trip! We look forward to returning.

Wonderful experience
A lovely well equipped property set in beautiful gardens with access to the facilities of Sugar Hill. Well located to visit Barbados . A car is recommended but we managed well with taxis and walking (even uphill on the way back) to the beach club at stunning Alleynes Bay - membership really enhances the holiday. Local buses to Holetown are fun to ride too.The hosts were very informative and responsive. Rarely return to the same place but we have already booked to come back. Highly recommended.

Peaceful Paradise
How often can you say that you travel somewhere and EVERYTHING is perfect. This is rare! We are extremely selective with accommodations we choose and even more particular about cleanliness. This property is adorable, cozy, and most importantly clean! It is obvious that the owners take pride in their ownership! The finishings and furniture are of great quality. The outside spaces are beautifully furnished with inviting, comfortable pieces to ensure a restful experience. The apartment is located in a quiet, serene complex, surrounded by picturesque gardens that are extremely well kept. Although that alone would be enough, the owners have generously ensured that everything you could need is on hand. Besides all of the kitchenware that is present, they have gone above and beyond to provide soo many helpful extras that most owners don't. The list is too long, but to name a few items, seasonings, storage bags, cooking spray, laundry detergent, recycle bags for shopping, cushions for the chairs at the pool, an umbrella for the beach. If this seems too good to be true, know that we experienced it and it is just that. Now, as wonderful as all of that is and there seems no way to top it, believe it or not, it gets better. The owners are so nice, considerate and caring. Despite employing a property manager they still take the time to answer questions, provide suggestions and make sure that you have everything you need. Gail was a delight to communicate with! You will NOT be disappointed

Paradise
We had the best time at this stunning penthouse, the decoration and detail is absolutely amazing as this the whole estate. The Deck restaurant and bar service are fantastic and the infinity pool has one of the best views I’ve ever seen. All communication from Gail is exceptionally prompt, thorough and offered lots of recommendations and local knowledge. Everything you could possibly need is on hand and this truly felt like a home from home for us. We can not recommend this property highly enough and would definitely book again in preference to some of the top Holetown hotels we have previously stayed at. Hard to put into words how gorgeous this place is and clearly loved and cherished by Gail and Chris, there is so much love in every detail and decoration 😁 Thank you so much,

Had a lovely stay in Chris and Gail’s apartment. The size was just right for us at the roof terrace was an added bonus. We used the Fairmount pass many times but there are so many other beautiful beaches to choose from on the island. We would definitely come back.

Highly recommended!
This apartment is perfectly situated.We needed a recharge and the location is perfect, nice and quiet with everywhere easily accessible. The Clubhouse, the Deck and the pool were quiet and relaxing and a fab choice of restaurants close by. The apartment itself feels like home. Gail and Chris have thought of everything you need, and more! It’s lovely to have breakfast on the main terrace, and the upstairs sun terrace is perfect in the evening. Membership to the beach club at the Fairmont is a huge bonus. Gail is an extra asset to the property as she shares her wealth of knowledge of the area and her directions to Sugar Hill are spot on. This is definitely a property we will return to.

Absolute Perfection!
Stayed for 3 weeks to celebrate our 25th anniversary and … just didn’t want to leave! We’ve stayed in a fair few rentals over the years and this is hands down the best. Everything you could possibly need is in the apartment plus those extras to make your holiday even more perfect. The bed is comfy, lovely linens and towels (so often these are a letdown, but Gail & Chris have clearly gone that extra mile). Kitchen is really well equipped and was great to cook in. We were welcomed on arrival with a really thoughtful selection of essentials in the fridge - including Banks, rum & coke! The two terraces are beautiful - styled like an interiors magazine photoshoot, and super comfy too with seriously great quality furniture - it’s all so well thought out. Enjoyed the spectacular sunsets from the roof terrace. Sugar Hill itself gorgeous. Both pools are lovely, staff everywhere are great, helpful and funny, gym is good and the Deck restaurant (happy hour twice a week) has fab food and lovely staff. Sunbed service around the pool too which was fantastic! The grounds & gardens are gorgeous, and we loved all the birds! Watching the hummingbirds from the infinity pool was magical. Location is also (you guessed it) perfect - short ride to town for supermarkets & restaurants. Plus the beach club membership is a real bonus - stunning swimming, and the best sunbeds! Short walk to JuJus beach car too! It’s also a great base to explore the island further - not enough space here to list it all!

Lovely Apartment in a Beautiful Setting
We had a wonderful stay in this lovely apartment with views over the Beautiful mature and verdant gardens of Sugar Hill in close proximity to the West Coast beaches and numerous restaurants. The apartment is fully equipped for a long term stay, with cooking facilities for a change to restaurant eating. We enjoyed breakfast on the balcony overlooking the gardens and pool and sundowners on the roof terrace with views of the setting sun over the sea. Gail kept in touch from our booking to arrival and provided comprehensive information about the apartment and the Island. Access to the Fairmont Beach Club is a real bonus for beach lovers, located just a few minutes from Sugar Hill by car and there’s a well stocked Massy Supermarket in Holetown 10 minutes away. We collected a car hired from Stoutes on arrival and dropped it off on departure. We’ve used them multiple times and have always had first class service. Jeanette and Ray M
