Well kept grounds and pool , and a weLL presented apartment, containing all you need for a home away from home

We had a great stay in 330 and Kim and Sandy were thoughtful hosts, bringing water supplies when there was a threatened 24-hour water outage (it didn't happen). Golden View is a large '60s block in extensive and well-kept grounds with a large pool. 330 has everything you need for a self-catering holiday but GV is also well-placed for local restaurants in Sunset Crest and Holetown - really just one very small town. Kitchen and bathroom are dated and we had a small problem with the toilet refilling but this was solved with a bit of fiddling. Large balcony with sitting and eating furniture but beware birds coming in for food. One or two managed to get into the apartment. We found wi-fi good (we caught up with The Archers!) and Kim and Sandy have excellent taste in box-sets, which we enjoyed most evenings. Yes, GV is popular with the over-60s and you can see why: it's comfortable, very safe (24-hour security), near to everything including a reputedly excellent medical centre and a large supermarket. Food and eating out are expensive as everything is imported from the US - there are some Waitrose brands too. We bought fruit and veg from the ladies at the stall opposite the medical centre - better selection and prices here than at the Massy supermarket in Warrens (the Holetown one hadn't reopened when we were there in November). Cemetery backing on to GV is no problem - you can't see if from the apartments and grounds and the funerals we did see were large and colourful with excellent singing. Visits to Hunte's Gardens and St. Nicholas Abbey recommended. A hire car helps as buses into the centre are fewer than along the coast. Altogether a very nice experience, if hot and steamy!

The apartment was comfortable, it was very quiet and close to the beach and town of Hometown and there were easy walks to some nice restaurants. Its nice to have a welcome pack when arriving as the local supermarket was being refurbished so the essentials were very welcome. The pool was large and almost always exclusively ours to use.

Lovely clean, comfortable apartment with everything you need. Great location, restaurants and beach short stroll from Golden View. Love Barbados, will be back. Thank you Sandy and Kim for your lovely welcome and making our stay enjoyable. X

The position in Holetown was brilliant and the outside areas were good, spacious and had a lovely pool. The apartment was adequate . The complex should be advertised as attractive for long stay retirees as the residents return year after year and are mature to say the least ! it is like a club for older people ( ironically situated next to the graveyard! ) If you are of this age group then Golden View is IDEAL

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 330 Golden View. We were met by the sister of the apartment owner, who had waited very patiently for an hour after we were delayed at the airport. She showed us the apartment which was bright and cheerful, and had obviously been updated and refurbished recently. The owner had left a generous welcome pack of basics which was a very nice touch after a long journey. Our only problem was, that the 2 weeks went too quickly! We may have to book a month the next time!! Ian + Marie

My husband and I stayed at Kim and Sandy's condo from December 26-January 2 and had an unforgettable experience. The condo is very safe, clean, and in a perfect location (walking distance to plenty of restaurants, markets, beach, and the bus stop). Holetown is a great place to stay. The pool at the condo was great and there were always lounge chairs available. We loved sitting out on our private balcony either morning, noon or night. The kitchen has a great supply of cooking utensils and we can't thank Kim and Sandy enough for the goodies they left for us to get started. I highly recommend staying here and look forward to returning ourselves in the future!

This is a great apartment, very well equipped and an unexpected welcome pack which saved a journey to the supermarket that evening. The bed is very comfortable with plenty of towels. The swimming pool is great as is the on site Chinese. It's a short walk to plenty of restaurants and bars and beach. The owners are lovely and could not do enough for us. Highly recommend this.

We stayed there for two great weeks in early October 2016 in which the only complaint was that the weather was too hot (30-34C) for us oldies. This was compensated by a superb 50 m outdoor pool with an excellent poolside chinese restaurant which served breakfast, lunch and dinner if you didn't want to self-cater. The apartment had everything you would need and was very comfortable. Being on the third floor served by a lift and overlooking a delightful garden, it was cooled by the seabreeze and free from mozzies. The air-conditioned bedroom ensured a good nights sleep. Although the local buses are cheap, frequent and get you anywhere, next time we will hire a car just to provide some mobile air conditioning. The owners Kim and Sandy were there to greet us and just about covered the waterfront with detailed instructions in the apartment on shopping, restaurants,taxis, buses etc. It was a real plus to have such nice and considerate hosts which make you feel at home. All in all, a real find which was much appreciated. Tony and Cilla, Chichester
