This house and cottage with a total of 6 bedrooms was a perfect place for our recent stay with 10 friends and would also work well with 2 families because of the separate cottage. It is located at the end of a quiet cul-de -sac. The outside eating and lounging area had plenty of space for us to gather and yet when needed provided ample room to find a quiet space. Mornings were lovely to sit and listen to the many birds. Some of us remained on the property lounging in the chairs (sun or under the big canopy) and air conditioned bedrooms, while others ventured to the nearby beaches. Mullins beach is about a 10 minute walk (uphill coming back!) where you can find many water activities, chairs to rent and buy food and drinks. We enjoyed the quieter Gibbs beach, ample shade under the trees especially in the morning., beautiful entry into the water and some good snorkeling.
Buses on the main road are frequent, there are more private buses than city buses, cost is the same 3.50 Bbd. Holetown, where the bigger Massy grocery store is located, is about 15 min away by bus. Much more of a tourist town with many stores, The Surfside Bar has steel pan every Sunday night!. Jordans, the other grocery store, is in Speightstown and is a fairly easy 2km walk. There is a shuttle available from both stores if you want to take it back home with your groceries,(if you are lucky enough to be there when it arrives!)
It was great to have a pool, not huge, but big enough to swim a bit and cool off, many lounge chairs and towels available. The stove was a bit of a challenge, but we eventually figured it out. The kitchen is a small work space, but manageable. and reasonably stocked. We didn't use the stove in the cottage
Natasha, the property manager was most helpful, friendly and always available by phone or in person. Wonderful find
