About this villa rental

We invite you to savour the hospitality of Rio Santo Residences, a charming, typically Barbados stone property, designed with striking hardwood balustrades on its patios and verandahs. Nestled in a quiet cul de sac, it is undoubtedly an ideal retreat from the daily hustle and bustle.

We offer a well-appointed traditional three-bedroom house and two adjoining modern one-bedroom apartments, all on a self-catering basis.

In this three-bedroom ground floor house, you will enjoy the convenience of a large patio and wet bar; a living room, cooled by ceiling fan, that seats six comfortably; a separate entertainment area with TV, radio/stereo facilities; a kitchen fully-outfitted with large refrigerator; four-burner stove; microwave oven; toaster; kettle; pots and pans; crockery; cutlery, etc., and a laundry room equipped with washer and dryer.

You will be able to sleep six persons in the air-conditioned bedrooms and an additional two persons on the sofa-bed, if required. Two bathrooms complete this very desirable villa.

Rio Santo Residences is advantageously located close to the famous St. Lawrence Gap in Barbados, and across the street from a white sandy beach, washed by the crystal clear turquoise waters of the Caribbean sea. Mere yards away is the popular Rockley Beach.

Nearby, within walking distance, are supermarkets, banks, medical offices, pharmacy, shops, hotels, restaurants, bars and nightclubs. The area is heavily trafficked, well-lighted and safe for walking.

As the property is virtually on the bus transportation route, a car is not essential but most people elect to have one, especially for sight-seeing and travel to venues outside the immediate vicinity. For those preferring not to drive themselves, taxi service is readily available.

Within ten minutes by car are the Rockley Golf Club, the National Tennis Centre, the Garrison Historic Area (including the headquarters of the Barbados Defense Force and the Garrison Savannah horse racing track), and the Museum and Historical Society. It is about 15 minutes to the capital city Bridgetown and 20 minutes to the Grantley Adams International Airport. UNESCO designated Bridgetown and the Garrison Historic Area as an international heritage site.

The South Coast of Barbados has great appeal to the visitor. It is vibrant, with great night-life and many excellent restaurants. Mojo's is next door and a short walk away is everyone's favourite Champers Restaurant and Wine Bar. The best known area is the popular St. Lawrence Gap where you can find many popular night clubs, restaurants and bars. Also within easy reach is Oistin’s Town, famous for its fresh fish fries and down-to-earth ambience.

Rio Santo is your home away from home. From there, you can Reach Out And Touch Barbados!

Lovely, simple, spacious, super-conveniently located. Walk to beaches and supermarkets. access to buses from the main road. Great communication with hosts. What more could you want? Highly recommend if you don’t need/want super fancy.

The property is as described. Spacious, comfortable and airy in a quiet and safe location. The only blemish is that the lounge area is very hot....could benefit from a/c e only concern

From the start Anton, the landlord/owner, was amazingly friendly and patient with me. The house is well maintained, but inside a little bit aged. It is situated in a quiet and safe neighbourhood (and yes, Mojos is directly on the backside and you hear an astonishing reggeaband(ritesideofred) playing every Wednesday, but I did not mind. I was here on holidays, totally chilled, so it did not bother me at all. But there seem to be people that want to spend their holidays by the beach and then complain about the sound of the waves. Nonsense.) The bathrooms are also a bit aged and look probably due to the climate situation not so good, but they function very well. You have easy access to the main road to use any transportation you like. The closest beach is also only a walk accross the main road away. 5 minutes walking and you reach a Massy supermarket, where you can shop anything you need. I really enjoyed it here, as well as my familymembers did.

We completely enjoyed our stay! Relaxing hours on the veranda watching parrots play in the trees, just steps from touching the sea and the charismatic Worthing beach! Perfect for the self catering traveller’s experience. Check in and check out were flawless. We had some minor wifi issues but they were resolved in a timely and professional manner. Would recommend and would also stay there again.

Location is outstanding as it is very close to the supermarket, multiple beaches, restaurants and the coast road making it easy to get on the ZR minivans. Although it is close to Mojos, noise was not an issue from the bar. It has an outstanding large front porch with a large table that made it easy to have dinners there.House is well equipped and was clean and tidy. Property manager, Anton is an absolute gentleman, easy to communicate with and he was very accommodating to our party by allowing us to check in early and store our bags at the end of our trip. Overall highly recommended!!

I have stayed at Rio Santo Residences on ten occasions and have been completely satisfied on every occasion. I and family members have rented the house on many occasions, which features a large porch with comfortable lounge chairs and table. On other occasions I have rented the apartments. The facilities in both the house and apartments are well laid out to provide very comfortable accommodation. When staying here you have convenient access to a wide selection of restaurants such as the Park Café, a five minute walk located in a beautiful tropical park. Massey grocery store is another two minute walk beyond the park. Rockley Beach is an eight minute walk. You have everything here to make a great vacation. Doug Watson

Our host Erskine was very responsive prior to and during our 7-night stay. The property was as described. It was clean and in a great location within walking distance to a supermarket, convenience store, cafes, restaurants and the beach. The kitchen was adequately appointed. We only made breakfast however. Both bathrooms could benefit from some updating. The bathroom in the main bedroom is tiny and the shower very confining. The ACs (in bedrooms only) worked great. The ceiling and floor fans in the spacious tv/sitting area offered tolerable relief from the heat. If you aren’t a nitpicker, and want comfortable, convenient lodging at a very reasonable rate I recommend Rio Santo. Thanks Erskine!! Hope to see you again.

Host was very communicative before arrival to make certain of no surprises. This made check in an excellent experience considering our flight was delayed and we arrived on island after 1am. Location is perfect, close to beach and easy to get around in any direction plus many conveniences nearby. Well prepared and clean making our stay comfortable and relaxing. Recommend this location for a value priced comfortable accommodation in safe and convenient location.
