The view was absolutley beautiful, and everything was neat and amazing. The boardwalk was great to walk at night, if you want to find a nice cheap or expensive bar/restaurant on the way you can. (We recommend Oasis Bar) Easy to contact the owners, and overall a wonderful experience. Unforgetable!

Was extremely happy with our accommodations during our 3 week stay at South Ocean Villa, unit 601. The view was amazing, the turtles swam by in the morning. We would go take a swim in the ocean steps away and come back for a cold drink on the patio and pool area. Staff was excellent and the furnishings and appliances were all very satisfactory. We would rent this unit again in a minute. Thank you for the hospitality.

Beautiful, clean, spacious condo that offeres everything you need to enjoy great holidays! We loved every minute spent in it! Cooking dinners, having a glass of wine , watching incredible sunsets and admiring beautiful views of the sea ! Truly an amazing location that offers steps to the beach, boardwalk and a pool! We loved watching turtles and stingrays from the balcony! Great communication with the property owners Mark and Susyn! Would like to thank you again for the opportunity given to us to enjoy your piece of paradise! We will be definitely back, counting the days!

Barbados is a wonderful island, is this is a wonderful place to stay. It could not be improved upon IMO

Had a fabulous time at the condo. Well equipped and nice space. Location is good. Close proximity to lots of stuff and right on the ocean. The boardwalk being right in front gives you the opportunity to not have to walk on the road which could be dangerous based on the speed some of the vehicles are going when they pass thru this area. Would definitely recommend this space for anyone interested in visiting Barbados. Missed the sea turtles, none to be found anywhere.

What a gorgeous place, Mark and Susyn were amazing hosts. They truly know how to make the trip easy with their extensive itinerary and recommendations. The villa was spotless, very comfortable, and so close to everything. Hastings is the perfect area to be because you are right in the middle of Bridgetown and St. Lawrence Gap. Also being close to the airport and Oistins was amazing. We loved the walk to Dover and Carlisle Beaches and all the fun bars/restaurants on the Boardwalk. The amazing view from the Villa also made us able to spot the sea turtles right from our balcony so we were able to run down and swim with them. Mark and Susyn were also very helpful while we were there and responded to our emails quickly to help us with certain questions. I can't wait to go back, thanks again for the best honeymoon!

We stayed here for a little over 2 weeks, best choice ever. My kids and husband loved it, the view from the balcony is awesome, we even saw turtles swimming, the villa was nice and clean, no complaints, we enjoyed the ocean sounds at night. Even though the beach was right there we enjoyed our morning walks to Accra beach, not too far and great excercise, which you need if you plan on eating the awesome Island food. The owners were very friendly and didn't lie when they told me that I would have a great time staying there. Hoping to return next year.

We stayed at this condo for 2 weeks in February. The weather was fantastic and the views from this condo are so amazing! You can watch the turtles from the balcony of the condo while having your morning coffee - yes the water is THAT clear! The condo is big and clean and it had everything we needed and we had an issue with the A/C upon arrival but Mark was on this for us and took care of it! The only downfall we had was no beach chairs or umbrella and going over to hotel down the beach to use theirs, the security guard said no you aren't a guest here you can't use our chairs. They are for guests only and I guess they were full occupancy and their guests have been complaining of having nowhere to sit by the beach. So we spent our time mostly at the pool/sundeck at the condo. Then when we wanted to cool off- we went out to the ocean and floated in the beautiful clear waters. The people on the island are very helpful and friendly. We walked to most things but also took the little white ZR vans to get around. They are all over and cheap and some are very entertaining to be on with the music. We also walked over to the horse track, which is a fun experience as well. So thank you Mark and Susyn for sharing your beautiful condo in paradise with us. I sure hope that some day we can come back again. WE would stay here again in a heartbeat if returning to Barbados.

This was our 5th year staying in the "Boardwalk" area of the South Coast and our first at Mark and Susyn's place. It was by far the nicest location we have had! In fact, it is hard to imagine a better location in the area. The unit sits on the 6th floor on the East side of the complex which gives it the best views and the most privacy of any of the units in the building (except for the penthouse above). The owners were very pleasant to deal with and their attention to detail was outstanding. The place was clean and very nicely furnished. Air conditioning was unnecessary with the lovely ocean breezes whistling through the place all day and night. The pool area was quiet and immacualtly maintained. We spent mornings counting the turtles in the sea and the evenings toasting the sunsets all from the very private balcony. A wonderful and memorable month!!

The unit itself was spacious and bright. Exit one side of building and you are on the boardwalk at the beach. Exit the other side and you are on the main road close to restaurants. The AC in the main area was disabled but the overhead fans kept it comfortable. AC in bedrooms worked very well. Overall, I highly recommend it.

I had a wonderful time with my family. We enjoyed the view, the beach, the turtles and swimming pool with kids..

We have stayed at this condo 2 of the last 4 years we have visited Barbados The location remains idyllic---near the beach, secure, near restaurants and shopping! The actual condo is also “nice”---2 bedrooms, kitchen, living area, two balconies with an ocean view! Noticeable problems have, however, become obvious: minor rusting on the refrigerator and door locks can easily be fixed; while there, the AC in the small bedroom was fixed so that it blows cold air. However, the biggest problem is that the living-family room area’s air-conditioning has been disconnected! Indeed, the air-conditioning in BOTH bedrooms operate, but the AC in the main housing areas has been disconnected (by order of the owner). This means that---because very few individuals spend the majority of their (in condo) time in the bedrooms, the heat in the larger part of the condo can become over-bearing! I can understand why (perhaps) the disconnection was made—too many renters leaving it on for too long! However, that should not be reason enough to “punish” those who have (in the past) followed the instructions to turn-off the AC when not in the condo or to leave the AC on for all “hours” of the day. There were miserable hours spent in the main housing areas. Perhaps a “timer” would be beneficial in preventing mis-use!

This was our first time doing a vacation rental through VRBO and Home away. Being from Barbados born and raised, we knew the area we wanted to be in where we could enjoy the beach, family and friends. And this was ideal. Mark made the booking experience very easy , and was professional, he answered all our questions in a timely manner and provided an over abundance of information in regards to his unit and island . We even switched our usual car rental company to one that Mark suggested . The apartment view was awesome and hearing the sounds of the Ocean was very relaxing The apartment was very clean and spacious, it has a beach, casual homey feel . Not glitzy and glamorous but the way a beach setting should be. Upon arrival we noted a few issues that had to be corrected, contacted the property manager , Laila and she responded promptly and the issues were rectified in a timely manner and it did not interfere with our vacation schedule. The living room AC did not work, but this was not missed, as we took advantage of the ocean breeze which kept the unit comfortable. and a Rum Punch helps to keep things cool One thing to mention, we rented a car to visit family and friends, its great having an indoor secure parking spot, just be prepared to utilize all your parking skills, as the garage is challenging to negotiate. We would enjoy breakfast and sometimes lunch on the veranda and head out for dinner . Would definitely recommend this unit being Beach front and updated good value for the money .

For 5 years we have been vacationing together during our spring break and wanted a new location. And what a location this was!! Right on the water, clean, and spacious. The owners were quick to respond, provided wonderful information, and assured everything was perfect. By far this location was the best. They are not exaggerating when they say you will love the views. We had a very relaxing time and also found plenty to do when desired. The security provided by locked gates and doors was a comfort. We would do it again!!

I would rate my overall experience in this property as great. It was me and 3 of my girlfriend who stayed at this property for about 4 days. The property was clean and enough room for 4 women. The real seller in this property is the amazing view from the balcony. This property is right on the beach and in a great location. I would def stay here again.
