About this property

Fabulous Sugar Hill Penthouse with Roof Terrace

Exclusive Sugar Hill apartment. Gated estate, close to local beaches. Complimentary Fairmont Royal Pavilion Beach Club membership included.
Enjoy the warm sunshine of Barbados from Yellow Bird, this beautifully refurbished top floor penthouse apartment based in the luxurious Sugar Hill resort. As an end unit it has a larger footprint with additional space, privacy and seclusion. The far reaching sea views can be enjoyed from a newly renovated sun deck.

Named after the famous Yellow Bird of Barbados, this very private apartment overlooks lush tropical gardens and one of the two swimming pools with views into the distance of the Caribbean sea. As well as enjoying stunning views from both the dining terrace and rooftop terrace, you will be able to relax and unwind in this peaceful haven. Perhaps start your day taking breakfast on the dining terrace while discussing your plans together. You might even be lucky enough to spot a green monkey roaming in the grounds who often make an appearance early in the morning! The large rooftop terrace on the top deck is for your own personal use and access to it is up a short flight of stairs leading directly from the dining terrace area. You can enjoy sunbathing here in complete privacy during the day and in the evenings it makes a wonderful spot to watch the sun go down and listen to the tropical sounds of the rustling palms and the tree frogs.

Very near to the fine dining restaurants of Barbados' West Coast, as well as more local bars and restaurants where you can sample some of the delicious Bajan dishes. Or why not enjoy alfresco wining and dining in Yellow Bird beneath the stars. Take your pick between the dining terrace or the rooftop terrace where you can sip your cocktails or even enjoy a BBQ.

Yellow Bird is very close to the amenities of upmarket Holetown as well as some of the most stunning beaches in Barbados. It comes with complimentary membership of the Sugar Hill Club and the Fairmont Royal Pavilion Beach Club.

In the apartment you will find all the modern conveniences you would expect including air conditioning in both the bedroom and lounge/kitchen. Maid service once weekly (more at extra charge). Alicia, my excellent property manager, can also arrange car hire, taxis, book tours, restaurants and organise pre-arrival groceries if required.

It is just a five minute drive to Holetown and local amenities. Car rental or taxis are recommended.

We understand the clubhouse pool and onsite restaurant & bar (The Deck) will be closed in September for maintenance, so we have reduced our rates by 20% for this month. The garden pool (nearest to our apartment) will be open at this time.

Lovely Property

We really enjoyed our stay at thus property, the layout of the property is great and we really liked the flexibility of the two outside terrace areas. Everything was exactly as described and we would have no hesitation in booking again.

Gorgeous apartment in a stunning location

Great communication with the owners & booking process. Perfect apartment, in a wonderful complex. Stunning well kept grounds, two beautiful pools, very quiet & relaxing. The apartment is very well equipped with everything that you could possibly need. We would recommend staying here & wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again in the future.

Peace and quiet

A lovely stay in a lovely property. We have stayed on suga hill a few times. It’s a really nice development. The property was as described clean and tidy. We were out all day and and every evening so didn’t use it too it’s full potential. However all the staff were very welcoming and even came and found me to tell me I had left the lights on in my car this was very much appreciated. Great place for a visit to the island.

Wonderful beautiful getaway

We had a wonderfully relaxing getaway at Yellow Bird. The apartment is ideally located on the west coast not far from the beach in a lovely garden / pool setting. This is our second time to Sugar Hill development and we enjoyed it as much as the first. We enjoyed walking through the development, swimming in the pool, visiting the local Lime grove restaurants & shopping area and going to Fairmont beach club. The apartment deck area was wonderful place to read and relax. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals or snacks and we enjoyed our meals, smoothies and tea on the veranda dining area overlooking the pool. We would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a nice getaway. Bill

For a couple, perfect.

The apartment was exactly as described. Comfortable, well equipped, situated on a very pleasant estate overlooking the pool and only a few minutes drive from the beach and Holetown. An added bonus is guest entry to the Fairmont Beach Club, although it has to be said that it belies its 5 star rating. Mattresses left out in the rain and car repairs happening on the grass are just a couple of examples of lack of focus. Special mention about the excellent cleaner who came twice a week and the owner who is very responsive and proved extremely accommodating when it transpired our flight was delayed. All in all, I can only recommend.

No hesitation in recommending.

The Apartment is exactly as described, in a beautiful and peaceful location up on Sugar Hill, but only a 5 minute drive down to the Shopping, Beaches, Bars and Restaurants of Holetown. Speightstown is about a further 10 minutes away and Bridgetown about another 15. Car hire is the best way to go, although there is a good & cheap Public Transport system all over the Island. It would be quite a walk to the nearest Bus Stop though, so a car is recommended, and you do get to see a lot more of this beautiful Island. The whole process of booking Yellow Bird was very easy and the owner was quick in responding to any queries. Everything in the Apartment was spotless, and during our stay was kept that way by the delightful Ms.Phil. Thank you for allowing us to use your wonderful Apartment, we will be booking it again!

Beautiful home, even better service.

Yellow bird was a great choice for our trip to Barbados. The home itself was lovely, very nicely decorated, equipped with extras like a cooler bag and plenty of nice beach towels. The bed was comfortable and the AC worked great. We were greeted by a caretaker on our arrival who walked us through how the appliances worked and clearly explained when she'd be back to clean during the week. We chose to visit during an especially active hurricane season and our flight out was cancelled. I contacted the property manager, Sasha, who kept in close contact with us while arranging with the owner for us to stay until our flight was rescheduled. The owner, Kate also personally reached out to us about staying until it was clear to fly. I was very impressed with the manner both Kate and Sasha treated us. The hurricane could have caused major stress for us, but amazingly it didn't! I highly recommend the Yellow Bird to anyone visiting Barbados!

Wonderful vacation in Barbados

We spent 10 days in Yellow Bird (extended from 7 days because we were enjoying ourselves so much.) The property is exactly as described and depicted in the photos. Beautiful location in Sugar Hill with the birds singing and palm trees swaying in the wind. So very peaceful and relaxing. It is very well equipped and the King size bed is very comfortable. The rooftop deck was wonderful. We spent many mornings and evenings up there, having coffee and just enjoying the spectacular view and refreshing breeze. The pool area is beautiful, the perfect place to lounge after a busy day touring or at the beach. Sugar Hill is just well enough removed from the hustle, bustle and noise of the main roads yet close enough to drive to town, grocery store, restaurants and beaches within minutes. The entire property is perfectly maintained. We rented a vehicle and drove around the entire island, visiting many of the locations suggested by Kate. I highly recommend Kates place, and Barbados for a spectacular vacation. I would definitely stay there again when I get another chance to travel to Barbados, which is a stunning island filled with beauty and warm friendly people.

Sugar Hill is one of the best places to stay on the island.

Overall the apartment is excellent. The one thing that lets it down is the air conditioning set up. The sitting room works fine, but the bedroom another matter! For the air con to stay on the windows and doors must be closed and the motion sensors must be kept active, which is all very well during the day but as soon as you lie down in bed the inactivity of the motion sensors switches the unit off. This means that in practice there is no air con at night in the bedroom. With nighttime temperatures of 80 degrees it was stifling and very uncomfortable. Not everyone wants to sleep with both the bedroom door and patio doors open at night whilst sleeping, to minimise the stifling heat, as there are rats mice monkeys and bats as potential bedroom visitors. Keeping the doors and curtains closed all day helps to keep the temperature down but the air is rather stale as a result. I do appreciate that the sensors are in place to save electricity costs, but this is a "luxury" apartment and a properly functioning air con is a must in my opinion.

Perfect property that met all our expectations. It was very well equipped and very clean and comfortable. The management was excellent and very responsive when requests were made. A great place and perfect location to key points of interest on the island. If I had any negative comment would be the sun beds on the roof terrace are very uncomfortable and need cushions. Yes I would stay here again if I returned to Barbados.

The aptly named”Serene Shores” was all that we could have asked for- what a beautiful home ! With ten family members there was plenty of space to gather for dinner and if needed, escape for a little private time.The oceanview and the beach itself was the best of any home we’ve stayed it! It had plenty of spaces to gather on the any of the three levels of decking.The house was very clean and well appointed!

Paradise in Yellow Bird

Very enjoyable stay in Sugar Hill. The resort itself is beautiful and there are 2 pools to use with one of them having fantastic views of the sea. The house itself was very clean and had a lovely balcony and rooftop to sit at. A 20 minute walk downhill to the main road where you can access the local buses which will take you up and down the coast to wherever you want to go
