Amazing location. Pool is Huge and fabulous. Outside space just brilliant. Liz is amazing and was on hand to answer any questions. She even had a xmas tree delivered for us to enjoy. We will definitely book again! ##### Christine F.

Liz was incredibly helpful answering all our questions about the Villa and the area as well as providing us with lots of local contacts for excursions. The Villa was just a dream.....amazing pool, outdoor lounging areas, lovely gardens and everything you need inside. It's 5 mins walk to Holetown Beach which is stunning and the Holetown area was lovely too, so much so we didn't venture that far. Cannot recommend this place enough. Thank you Liz (and Little Lex) for giving us the dream holiday we were after. ##### Jason C. Stayed 9 nights in Feb 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine F. 13 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Me and my husband stayed here last year for 18 nights and had an anazing time. This year we came back with our Son, Daughter in law and our 6 month old twin granddaughters for 4 weeks. We love everything about this wonderful villa. Its location is fantastic for us as we love Holetown. Liz has everything you could possibly need in her place she really has thought of everything. We had a huge amount of rain on our 4th night there which unfortunately caused the pool to become unusable and it flooded the gardens, veranda etc! Liz, her husband Curt and their amazing team of people arrived 1st thing and worked so hard to clear everything up for us. The communication was outstanding and Liz even tried to get to us but got stuck herself in the process! Any issues we had ( there were only 2) were sorted out immediately. The twins enjoyed the pool as did we all its pefect. We hired a car and saw the whole island even visited Liz & Curts new venture "The Nothing Box" on the east coast in St Margarets which is amazing and a must see. Our 4 weeks were spent between the beach and the pool, when we didnt have the car, both of which we loved so much. We will be booking to stay again next year maybe not for 4 weeks as this was a special occasion for my husbands 60th birthday. We all felt right at home here and didnt want to leave. Thank you again Liz & Curt and all your team for making our stay a memorable one we will see you all again next year 🥰 ##### Christine F. Stayed 29 nights in Nov 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Neil M. 18 Mar 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Check in easy. Lex picked us up from airport, did villa intro/check in. Outside space the best we have ever had. Lived outside - great pool, space around whole bungalow; covered terrace huge and lived there. Hardly used inside space. Kitchen very well equipped; ice dispenser very useful too. Easy/responsive comms with Liz (host) for any queries. Location perfect - quiet but so close to everything. We really enjoyed it. We were two couples. ##### Neil M.
