On the spectacular Platinum Coast, surrounded by fine ivory sand and the warm Caribbean Sea, this picture-perfect villa is a private oasis in the heart of Barbados. Boasting a private pool complete with a waterfall, you can relax in the cooling waters for a truly tranquil start to the day. The beach is just on the other side of a gate, placing you mere moments from the beautiful shoreline. Spend some time sunbathing or trying out some watersports on the calm blue waters. While Holetown has plenty of fabulous restaurants to choose from, we highly recommend a more intimate affair at home, which is easy when you have your own bar and gas-fired barbecue in the garden. Get the family together for a laid-back, hearty meal served alfresco on the patio, then fix yourself a post-dinner tipple. Why not take your drinks up to the spacious terrace to watch the sunset? The views have to be seen to be believed, and the comfy sun loungers are the icing on the cake. Home truths: *This home is spread out across two floors with no internal lift *There's free private parking available here *At full occupancy, one guest will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the master bedroom – we think this bed would be best suited to a child *While some of the bathrooms aren't photographed, we expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home *You'll have the whole home to yourself here, so there won't be any other guests using the pool *Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace *The swimming pool isn't fenced, so children will need to be supervised at all times
