We had the most amazing stay!

This property is exactly what we needed to relax by the beach, every minute of our stay was fantastic. We had a minor issue with one of the toilet during our stay (not their fault) and it was dealt with immediately. Thank you for a beautiful holiday!

Quiet seaside hideaway

We’re just finishing a weeklong stay and are not looking forward to leaving. The beach apartment had many features that we found to fit our needs. The neighborhood comes with a rum shop, fish market and unfortunately, a power plant. Nevermind the power plant, it’s a minor, but necessary distraction from an otherwise beautiful vacation spot. We would consider it a privilege to stay here again.

You are more than welcome to visit again! You all fit in well and it was so much fun to see you enjoying the grounds and all the island had to offer. The apartment was left very clean and tidy. We hope you enjoy the rest of your time in Barbados and return! Sorry the fishing village rooster attacked your kite! We rate you 5 stars on all accounts

Found it!!

after 4 years of searching for a place to return to on Barbados, we have found it. The apartment and grounds are beautiful. proximity to Bridgetown and the South Coast could not be better. Morning strolling on the beach was amazing and the vistas are stunning. Judy, the property manager, is professional, considerate, and easy to talk to. We will be returning next year, and hopefullu many years to come!

Thanks, Kevin. When you settled in it felt like you were part of the Freshwater Bay family. You took advantage of the grill by the gazebo, buying fish next door, and mellowing out on the patio and gardens. We look forward to welcoming you again.

Apt 7

We appreciated the good communication with the landlady, the apartment had a lovely garden and on a beach. However, it was located next to a power plant, a public beach which brought in loud crowds and music, and several roosters who were the very early morning alarm clock. The advertised Bush Pub across the street was open one evening just for a beer, no famous pork chops, and the Thursday Karaoke was actually late Friday night and went until 2:00 AM. Do not stay in the end Apartment #7. Things are not walking distance, so rent a car. We were able to find a very helpful Taxi driver. Barbados is reopening after a lock down from Covid and many places are still closed, so call before going anywhere. We enjoyed the lovely and friendly people of Barbados, and wish them well with reopening their country.

Un appartement parfait, une hôtesse parfaite, un presque-coin de paradis

L'appartement est très bien équipé, idéalement placé en bord de mer. Accès direct à la plage quasi déserte et couchers de soleil époustouflants chaque soir. Ventilation et climatisation impeccables. Un grand merci à Judy, notre hôtesse, toujours disponible, qui nous a accueillis avec un coconut bread :) Seul bémol : la proximité immédiate de la centrale électrique avec sur nos deux semaines de vacances, trois jours d'odeurs de fuel très fortes (le vent n'était sans doute pas dans le bon sens) et une journée de bruit insupportable : nous nous sommes consolés avec l'une des nombreuses autres plages magnifiques de l'île. La résidence comporte 8 appartements, la disposition fait que nous n'avons pas du tout été gênés par la présence de voisins ; au contraire le cadre rend l'atmosphère familiale. Le jardin est magnifique, entretenu chaque jour. Nous avons pu en profiter pleinement grâce aux chaises longues et au gazebo avec barbecue.

A nice property but a bit remote from things to do and see in Barbados

Overall a good place to stay.

Thanks for your review Delphine. It was a pleasure having you and your family stay with us at Freshwater Bay. It is indeed a bit more remote when compared to staying in the busy south and west coast areas. We always recommend hiring a car to guests staying here. Thanks again and we wish you all the best for 2020!

Fabulous!

It’s hard to find all the ways to discuss how much we enjoyed our stay at the Beautiful Barbados Beachfront Property Judy Marshall was incredibly helpful and responsive to our inquiries and requests. We were greeted with her friendly smile and found everything we needed in the apartment. Nikki who cleaned the apartment before we got there did an immaculate job. The place was clean, bright and shinny. Both her and Judy sincerely wanted to make sure we enjoyed our stay. The garden and grounds of the condo were like a little piece of paradise thanks to Carl, the gardener, who was also very friendly and helpful. It is absolutely beachfront and the beach is very private. We swam in the warm clear ocean every day and on several occasions walked up the beach to Batts Rock Beach to eat at the beach front cafe. We found it very easy to get around by bus. Some of the exceptional highlights of our trip were going to the art gallery in Speightstown and eating at The Fish Pot restaurant. Visiting Holetown and snorkeling at Folkestone Marine Park and Museum, walking around Bridgetown and going to Oistins Friday night and eating at the restaurant where Nikki works. We had a BBQ party on the condo grounds Saturday night with our daughter’s friends at UWI and Nikki made the salad for us in the traditional Bajan style. Thank You Nikki! The last day of our stay we hired a driver recommended by Judy and Nikki who took use to Animal Flowers Cave, Cherry Tree Hill and the East coast shoreline. I would highly recommend a trip to Barbados and staying at the apartment at Spring Garden if you want a relaxing, peaceful and clean and private place to stay.

Week Vacation in Barbados Beachfront Property

Our stay at freshwaterbay was magnificent. It is well worth it to stay in a beachfront property to get a relaxing experience. Waking up to the beautiful view of turquoise water and watching the sunset in the evening was a magical experience. The property itself was clean, and open. We spent a lot of time in the porch area looking at the water. I guess the only set back was there was no shampoo provided, but we just bought some at the local grocery. The road to arrive at the apartments were a little worrisome as there is a big factory nearby. But when at the beach property, we hardly noticed it. The beach by the property is really for walks and the water is great for swimming. All in all the experience was great and definitely worth the extra cost rather than staying in an airbnb 10 min away from the beach.
Stayed 5 nights in May 2018
Response from VrboOwner on 28 Mar 2020
Glad you enjoyed your trip! Being able to walk right out to the gardens and beach is definitely a plus!

Bajen holiday

This was a very relaxing week surrounded by blue water and sand, far from snow and closed schools and workplaces. We enjoyed toasting the sunsets from the patio on day one, and floating peacefully in the crystal blue water on lazy mornings just steps from the patio and wandering along beaches past palms, coral and bougainvillea, ginger and Bird of Paradise flowers. The community of like minded tenants were friendly and helpful, sharing favorite day trips and island favorite destinations . We enjoyed several very nice, sophisticated restaurants and several authentic Bajen menu features, rum bars and walk-up shops. We had breakfast at the Polo field while attending a craft fair. All part of the experience of Barbados. The cuisine was wonderful and the fresh fish plentiful from flying fish to barracuda. The tropical plants and foliage were indescribably beautiful at every stop throughout the island. We deplaned and stopped on the way home to tour a local rum distillery dating back centuries; we ended the week relaxing in a private garden tucked into this tropical paradise. You will find a car necessary to get to the many special towns and sites but it is easy to find your way. Take friends or family and rejuvenate yourselves and enjoy a week you will not soon forget.

This couple achieved the perfect balance of relaxation, sightseeing and finding a mix of elegant and local restaurants. The husband painted some amazing watercolours of the beach and gardens. He was kind enough to leave us one that has already been framed and hung!

Paradise Found

My husband and I spent a long weekend at the apartment. We couldn't have had a better time. The accommodations were ideal, including the spectacular view. We took long watches on the beach and captured the sunset every evening perched up on the brick wall. I highly recommend this getaway!

If you want to just relax and enjoy the view and not have to worry about any thing, then this is the place. If you're upset about something, just wait until the morning and the view and the sound of the surf will take it all away.We had ten wonderful days here and were treated like family.The apartment was very clean, the beds were excellent and the decor was A1. If you want to do a lot of sightseeing you really should have a car but there is great taxi service available. The owners were staying there at their apartment during our stay and did everything to make our stay very enjoyable. This must be the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow that we saw on our last morning.Truly a small piece of Paradise.

We really enjoyed "hosting" these two couples. They did fun things, embraced Bajan culture and added to the complex!
