My family and I stayed here for my birthday. The host was extremely helpful, even before we arrived. She helped with transportation, that we used the entire week. She set us up with the chef, who was amazing! And she provided recommendations on places to go on the island. The accommodations were just as advertised, and we loved that each bedroom had an en suite and balcony. Everyone was comfortable had their own space. The easy access to the beach was just icing on the cake! Thank you Emma.

Wonderful property right on the beach which feels like your own slice of paradise. Local buses right outside the front of the property to transport you anywhere along the coast. Villa exceptionally maintained and equipped with everything you could possibly need. Beautiful home from home decor throughout.

My friends and I reserved “Mahogany Pod” for our annual Girl’s Trip. Emma’s home was beautiful with all the comforts required for an enjoyable and relaxing vacation. It was very obvious that the owner has taken a great deal of pride in adding special touches in the decor throughout the home. The staple food items and homemade banana bread she provided was a thoughtful special touch. We especially appreciated Emma and the manager’s assistance with airport transfers, a chef and recommending the best masseur on the island. I would certainly recommend Mahogany Pod to anyone visiting Barbados. A. Fleet

Mahogany Pod was perfect for our family! The location is great, with easy access to the bus into Hole Town and a short walk to QP Bistro and The Cliff. The property is clean, private and well stocked with dishes and everything you would need should you want to eat in. Emma was an amazing host, with timely communication and she made our arrival to Mahogany Pod easy, comfortable and welcoming. Tamica was warm and friendly, I will miss her. We were sad to leave this home away from home and can’t wait to return. Thank you Emma!

The house is absolutely gorgeous, even better than the photos. It has a calming and relaxing vibe and is tastefully furnished. Plenty of space and equipped with everything you need. We had such a lovely family holiday, our first time to Barbados and I’m sure it won’t be the last. Communication with the owner was great. The housekeeper and manager were both very helpful during our stay. We would love to visit again

Mahogany Pod is a beautiful property with stunning architecture. The house was very clean and well stocked. The views from every bedroom are stunning! Each room has its own full bathroom and dressing room. The fish market next door is convenient and inexpensive. We went to the upscale restaurants in the area and they were all lovely, but the fresh fish on the grill was certainly a treat. The beach in front of the property is great for snorkeling. If you walk on the beach to the right of the property, you will walk past many hotels. All the beaches are public, so you can utilize these areas to lay out or find swimming areas. The water comes up to the house at high tide and the sound of the ocean is wonderful to hear slapping against the sea wall. Suggestions: Go to Clifton Market in the Limegrove shopping area rather than Massys for food shopping. They have meats and foods that are closer to the comforts of home. They also had lots of gluten free/allergy options. The house is on a busy street. The sound of the street is loud. You can hear it throughout the house, but not when you are on the beach. The resorts are also on this road, so if the noise will bother you, Paynes Bay may not be the area for you. Our vacation was lovely! We very much enjoyed having the plunge pool!! We miss Barbados and the warm weather! Thank you Mahogany Pod for wonderful memories! 💛🇧🇧
