About this villa rental

Barbados is calling! And a stay at Holders Retreat is the perfect way to answer. Part of the sought-after Holders Hill community, Holders Retreat offers an incredible resort-style setting for your group of 12. Walk to three stunning golf courses, greet monkeys over your morning coffee and indulge in spa services right at home at our on-site Cavern Spa. Stroll to the powdery sands of Paynes Bay Beach or stay in and enjoy 14,000 sq. ft. of lush grounds and pristine indoor/outdoor living spaces.

Holders Retreat is a resort-style experience that you don't have to share. Inside, this 5,500 sq. ft. residence boasts three self-contained suites. Spend the day together as a group, then retreat to your own private quarters, each with their own entrance, kitchen, dining area and outdoor spaces.

With this reservation you will have the entire property to yourself—all three suites. (Holder’s Retreat suites can also be booked individually when availability allows. Message us to inquire!)

A DAY AT HOLDERS RETREAT

Wake up in one of the six plush bedrooms, each with a double, queen, or king bed, and each decorated in its own style—from Boho chic to Bajan luxury. Linger under sumptuous sheets with a sea breeze rifling the curtains (each bedroom has A/C, as well).

If you’ve chosen, the king-size master suite (a great choice!) you can freshen up for the day in a spa-style en suite with a jetted tub and walk-in shower. Or opt for “next level” pampering at the boutique spa within Holder’s Retreat, which we lovingly call "The Cavern Spa" for its stone-inlay walls, which make the space feel even more tucked away and serene. Upon arrival, our Guest Services Manager can arrange for private in-house massages, accompanied by treats like herbal teas, a champagne cocktail, or a cleansing juice. Your group are the only people who have access to The Cavern Spa.

Rejuvenated, head to your suite’s kitchen to brew coffee or tea to sip in the sunshine. Connect to the free, whole-house WiFi to catch up on email, or connect with the group in one of several indoor/outdoor living spaces. Stretch out on the patio, with “refresh breaks” in the plunge pool. If your group loves swimming—or lounging poolside—we may be able to offer you access to an additional plunge pool and larger outdoor area at the private residence next door for an additional fee to cover the cost of cleaning, maintenance, etc. Please let us know in advance if you're interested.

At dinnertime, choose from a laidback barbecue on the patio or an elegant seafront dinner at The Cliff, often considered one of the best restaurants in the world, thanks to its truly incredible cliffside view. If you bring a car to explore, plenty of on-site parking awaits.

The property is great, clean and it's a secure neighborhood. The check in process is Awesome and Ashley was a great help. The only 2 minor caveats are that there was no body wash or shampoo/conditioner in the rooms and the pool was smaller than what was shown in the pictures. Other than that it was a great experience for all of us. Also, the closest beach is about a 15 minute walk.

The property location is very convenient to beaches and many attractions if you have transportation. There are multiple units so ideal for families within families. However, our stay was impacted negatively by multiple issues indicating that the property is not maintained well. Fridge water leaks, dryer timer broken, toilet tank leaks, burnt out lights, mal-aligned door jams, shower taps that are jammed or fall off with use ... The list mounted every day and the property manager took days to respond and was unable to fix most deficiencies. The owner was responsive and stated he would find a way to compensate but this did not materialize. Overall, liked the space and location but disappointed with the stay.

We had a family holiday using all three areas which are spacious and comfortable, the area is quiet. Rheama was available if we had any queries and was very helpful and professional organizing our travel and taxis. The walk down a steep hill to the main road and Paynes Beach is about 20 minutes, the buses are very regular up to Holetown and into Bridgetown. There is a local store 10 minutes walk up the hill and main shopping is in Holetown. I would recommend a starter pack of milk etc if arriving in the evening. Robin and Jerome were charming and very kind, New Year on Paynes Beach was fabulous. The only downside were the mozzies otherwise it was a great holiday.
