About this house rental

*Please note that the beach in front of Whitecaps was damaged by storm surges over 2024 and a crew is going to be completing works to restore the beach by December 2024. Due to this, the beach may be accessed in front of Whitecaps by walking along the rocks or around from the Mullins entrance. We are hopeful that the beach will be restored by March 2025.

Whitecaps is ideally located on the beautiful Mullins Beach on the West Coast of Barbados. The airy traditional beach cottage has a cozy open plan with amazing views of the Caribbean Sea. There is a large shady open front yard with beautiful mature trees - great for kids and family hangouts. You'll feel as if you have stepped back in time, and are on your own slice of tropical paradise.

There are 3 spacious bedrooms which are cooled by A/C and ceiling fans, and have en suite bathrooms. The open plan dining and sitting area is enclosed with decorative wrought iron and there is a sit-up wet bar with a fridge. The kitchen is fully equipped with a fridge, stove/oven, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, cutlery, cookware, etc. To make this a true holiday - there is also a friendly cook on hand who can prepare three meals a day for you, and a housekeeper who cleans daily and also does laundry.

Whitecaps offers guests a casual, comfortable and relaxed beach home with old fashioned touches just steps away from the ocean.

You will be well taken care of by a local property manager, and a concierge will be in touch to assist with any requests. Airport pick up and/or drop off, tour guides, baby sitting and all other services can be arranged.

*The size of the beach varies due to seasonal changes

This was a beautiful house on a fantastic beach. We loved the outdoor patio space overlooking the beach. The beach was perfect, quiet at the house, and busier further up the beach near the restaurants. The staff were all amazing. Some of our group went snorkeling with the turtles by the shipwreck and were picked up straight off the beach in front of the house. Others went and played golf. The location was perfect, everything in the house worked, and it was great to have staff who would come in and cook for us, great food by the way, and do our laundry for us. The yard was kept in amazing shape by the gardeners and there was security at night. I've been to quite a few islands in the Caribbean and Barbados has gone to the top of my list. What a great stay!

What an absolutely perfect holiday my family and I had. I would strongly urge whoever reads this to go ahead and book. Being located on a quiet beach with two fantastic bars on it, we had a great time. If you chose you can have three meals a day prepared for you, by a lovely lady that has worked at the property for over 25 years. If not there are many great bars and restaurants within a short drive and in some cases a short walk. There's a security guard at night as well as a cleaner there in the day. The house is lovely, it's got a very authentic feel about it. It could do with a little bit of TLC however the location of the property makes up for it. My only complaint would be that the Wi-Fi was unusable, so if you're planning on working on your holiday then the beach bar next door has good internet or alternatively purchase a good mobile data plan.

Wonderful Time at Whitecaps

Wonderful Time at Whitecaps

This property is so magical. You hear the waves every night, have a beautiful garden area of your own, and an open air living area to enjoy the quiet evenings. The check in and out process was so simple. The house is cleaned daily, and we were able to have the house supplied with some provisions before we arrived. Visitors can arrange to ride on a glass bottom boat, water ski, ride jet skis, and do pretty much any other water sport from the beach right in front of the villa. Each of the three bedrooms has an en suite which was very convenient for traveling with teens. We were able to quickly prepare ourselves to visit botanical gardens, Harrison's Cave, and Bridgetown. All of which were easy routes from the villa. We were sad to leave and can't wait to come back to Whitecaps and the sea.

Old World Charm

Old World Charm

Location, location, location! This beachside cottage has all the charm and funkiness you could want if you like to live "local" and is situated right on the surf, with a large, glorious shady garden. Inside, Whitecaps has old time character and history. Spacious and comfortable, the rooms are cool and dark for a good nights sleep. The bathrooms are spotlessly clean, though definitely from another era. The veranda is enclosed with rather grim dark wrought iron bars (they could use a drop of paint), so you sit right amongst the lush tropical foliage. Lovely birds come in and are quite at home sitting beside you on the furniture. Listen to the waves crashing and the frogs whistling while you go back in time and enjoy this unique escape. Just a few hundred feet away, some older houses like this one have fallen victim to development and become restaurants. They have made Mullins Beach very lively; a nice contrast to the dreamy, charming Whitecaps retreat. Very handy to get take-aways! Let's hope this old homestead does not suffer the same fate, as we are sure to want to go back. Blue Skies do a most professional job of maintaining the property! Gardener, housekeeper and cook were all delightful.

The house is run by two magnificent ladies Julie the chief concierge and Wendy the chief renting agent who are very professional. The house itself is dated needing desperately modern locks and a secure gate to the beach. The cook makes wonders in cooking butts expensive . cleaning service suzanna professional genUineand very-friendly. It is becoming my most favoured house choice on the island. It offers you an excellent home-base to enjoy the beauty of Barbados.

Whitecaps is a well-situated, family friendly cottage. Mabel and Suzette were fantastic and took care of us the entire time. Mabel is an excellent cook, she asked us what our preferences were but we were happy to have her make her Bajan specialties! The fresh fish is not to be missed. One note about this property is that it is relatively close to the road, so the two bedrooms that are closest to the road do get a fair amount of road noise. So if you have light sleepers in your group, it may be worth finding a different house with BSL. But I can't speak highly enough of the BSL service - they made everything so easy, from arranging the covid protocols, to pre-stocking the house with food, hiring a nanny, hiring a car, all of it! Highly recommend renting from them and we look forward to doing it again.

The house is in a great location. Several doors down from a popular tourist location, so the beach area is often busy with jet skis and chartered boats that dock close to the house. Great if your looking for a happening area, a little less desirable for privacy. Dennis the groundskeeper is amazing and keeps the outside garden area beautifully kept for enjoying the greenery and beach. The concierge, Julie is amazing and is extremely helpful with all needs. Make sure to bring mosquito repellent!
