Great location, everything we needed
Quick walk to necessities, right on the beach. Fell asleep every night to the sound of the waves. Powerful shower, comfy bed, good size fridge w freezer, full oven/range. Laundry on site. Wifi. BBQ!!!!! The deck is spectacular and even has an external tap for rinsing off. The unit is pleasantly bright and you can get a good breeze through.Lex picked us up at the airport and went above and beyond with a special detail for me! Joyanne is lovely, does a great job and was straight up with us. . We will be back! Thank you!

Wunderbar
This place for use was the hammer, Lex who is the property supervisor offer to pick use up at a reasonable price. He checked use in show use the place. You are two steps from the beach. This place has a safe also. Beautiful gas stove.We had the use of the paddle board, all beach furniture, there is a new washing machine to wash your clothes, toaster,tea pot. You are with in walking distance to everything. We did not rent an auto, with this property you need no auto. We walked to Central Kitchen to eat very good food. Liz and her husband are the greatest hosts you could ever have and she see to it you enjoy yourself. Liz will go out of her way to make sure you are comfortable. If you pass up this rental you are crazy. We will rent from her again @ Chill a Bit when we visit Beautiful Barbados. We miss you Liz, Ciao
