Beautiful spacious villa, very well equipped, with a lovely clean pool, beautiful sea views and close to a lovely beach

Nothing

The meals were wonderful and elegant. The host was gracious and meted me when I arrived with a lovely tour of the Villa. Dorothy and her staff were excellent hosts and very helpful, kind, and a delight to be around. Thank you for making my stay absolutely wonderful and amazing. The pool was great along with very tailored and neatly kept grounds. The bedrooms are very comfortable with each room having a different theme with their own individual bathrooms. Thank you for the beautiful flowers and being able to have a personalized stay. A book was there to assist with tours and other fun things to do in Barbados. The Villa really felt like home away from home.

Nothing. I wish I could have stayed longer!

Everything. The villa was the most luxurious and beautiful place I've stayed. The staff is phenomenal and professional. It's literally an oasis. I love that you are away from the tourist area because you get the real feel of how beautiful Barbados actually is. The Chef is amazing and his food was delicious everyday. The housekeeper cleans and does laundry without you feeling like she is even there. The Villa is massive and the common spaces are so perfect to socialize with friends and family. The views are breathtaking every morning. We were all so sad to be leaving but we will definitely be back again.

Nothing. Everything was amazing.

Huge lovely very clean villa with really friendly staff with your own excellent private chef and maid. Peaceful beautiful location with monkeys , mongoose and humming bees. Felt like Kings and Queens.

Really beautiful property. Lots of rooms and very spacious. The pool is great for hot sunny days in Barbados. The villa comes with a chef and daily housekeeping which felt very luxurious! The staff had great communication throughout our stay. We felt very spoiled.

It’s quite secluded. You’ll require a car to get anywhere. There’s a tiny beach across the street but you can’t really hang out there because of the massive crushing waves.

spacious, comfortable and clean. loved the balconies. easy stroll to catch bus to Holetown and beaches.

We were very grateful for the support from the Sea Symphony Villa team. The house is owned and run by a local doctor and her husband (also a doctor); Dorothy will exchange informational emails with you before your arrival and greet you with the staff (Lindrey (chef) and Beatrice (housekeeper)) on your arrival. Dorothy keeps a careful eye on the house's operation. Lindrey, who is a gifted cook, will recommend excellent dishes for breakfast, lunch or dinner (you set the times for meals, and can of course eat out instead). Lindrey has cooked professionally all over the Caribbean, as well as on cruise lines, and can prepare classic international dishes as well as Caribbean specialties (from Barbados, Jamaica, Grenada, etc.). Beatrice does the laundry daily and keeps the house absolutely spotless, and is a cheerful voice every morning. Finding the villa is relatively easy, as "Sea Symphony Villa" shows up on maps on your phone, and if needed you can ask for directions once you're close. St Lucy Parish, where the villa is located, is the northernmost in Barbados, and so a 40-minute drive from the airport. The west coast beaches are 10-25 minutes down the coast, the northern coast (remarkable cliffs at the Animal Flower Cave) 15 minutes away, the east coast (en route, a beautifully restored mansion and miniature railway to overlook point at St Nicholas Abbey, and then the Andromeda gardens and lunch at the Atlantis Hotel) about 30 minutes away, and Bridgetown and the south coast beaches about 30-40 minutes away. It is very useful to have a car, and a driver who is comfortable driving on the left-hand side (UK rules) on sometimes poorly maintained roads with lots of roundabouts.

The Barbados roads can be challenging. If you rent a car, make sure to buy insurance for the bumps in the road. Also -- the world-class waterfront restaurants in Holetown (e.g., The Tides) can be expensive, but the cuisine and the sunset views are worth it.

A stunning large villa with views to sea on a hilltop. Own pool too. A chef who cooks amazing food and a housekeeper who provides a laundry service too. A taxi service is available. The rooms are lovely and the master bedroom immensely comfortable bed. It's truly a marvellous place with first class service. It's so spacious and big tvs too. A few verrandas for drinks. Quiet location. Close to the brilliant new restaurant The Fish Pot. It's hospitality at its best. Superb place.
