Our family of 4 stayed at the Chateau Monique in August and all agreed it was our best vacation yet. The house was mainly open air except for the bedrooms and bathrooms which was pretty cool. The cleaning staff and property maintenance were amazing too! Highly recommend staying here.

The location right on the beach is second to none, being able to walk right into the water from the backyard was amazing. The house itself has everything you could ask for, but with the windows being open 24/7 I definitely recommend bringing bug spray. The housekeeper was a nice touch it allowed us to relax more and enjoy our vacation. The driver they recommend was great and super friendly. Would go back for sure!

Chateau Monique is where to stay in Thunder Bay! Everything from the friendly housekeeping staff to the most beautiful beach ever sitting right outside the front door was all we could ever ask for. The only bad part was having to leave! Chateau Monique will always have a special place in our hearts!

This is the most amazing location!!! This beautiful Bajan style home is nestled in on the most pristine beach in Barbados. I never wanted to leave!!! It was the perfect jumping off point for everything we did, but I just couldn't wait to get back to the house! The house was spotless and the house keepers lovely. We can't wait to return!

What an amazing place in Reeds Bay, a prime beachfront location in Barbados! Home is spacious and bright with a huge back porch just a few steps away from the Beach. It is very peaceful, quiet, very private and secured. We truly enjoyed the beautiful, calm, and quiet beach, so ideal for swimming and relaxation. Everything was perfect. We will definitely stay again. Thanks to our wonderful guest, Chanice!!!

This was a very comfortable, enjoyable place for our family vacation. Very private, and well kept up. It is not in the main tourist area of Barbados, which for us was a definite plus. Since there is so much great public transportation we could get anywhere while still having lots of privacy in our place. Recommend it for anyone wanting that experience

My friends and I loved the space. The home is beautiful and unique. The house cleaners were friendly and very helpful. We used the local bus out front to go the supermarket and local stores. This location is in the less busy part of Barbados. Like 40 mins from the airport and popular spots like Oistins Fish Fry. Will definitely visit again!

I loved working with BSL. They were easy going, communicative and prompt on reply. The house is fantastic! There is some construction next door, usually just a couple of guys drilling and hammering mid morning and mid afternoon. We will definitely stay here again.

This house was better than we could've imagined! Cynthia (housekeeper) was so kind and helpful- took care of the house every day. The house was so well stocked with equipment, making it easy to grocery shop and cook in. The house was very spacious, so well maintained, and just beautiful!! If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!

We loved the house however, the mosquitoes were ridiculous. It was uncomfortable at night to sit on the deck, we tried spray, coils and repellent. That's the only downfall.

Wonderful beachfront villa

Our group of four had a great time at Chateau Monique. We loved being able to walk out to the beach through the back gate. Cynthia the house keeper was lovely. Our only negative was the noise from the construction next door. We had been advised prior to arrival but did not anticipate it would be so intrusive. We previously stayed at Chateau Monique in Nov 2021 and were not affected anywhere near as much. We love the properties you manage and have stayed several times with you previously. We are already booked in at Whitecaps next year andnwould love to stay at Chateau Monique in the future, once the house next door is finished. Regards Michael

Perfect location

We had a wonderful family stay at this house. There's nothing like walking out the back door and finding yourself at a magnificent beach. Private sunsets each evening! Just a short walk up the beach to a couple of beach restaurants (just allow plenty of time to wait for your order). That said, the house itself is a bit tired and could use an update. Also, I received a welcome email which said to respond to it, if we had any questions. I did this, but never got a response. The only way to reach them was by calling the rental company, or reaching out through the VRBO platform. Which is fine, but it took some time to figure it out. One other thing to be aware of: the house comes with housekeepers, and they are normally there every day. We asked them to come back only once after the first visit (during our weeklong stay), which they respected. But they are there for the entire day. Don't get me wrong, they were lovely, very friendly people. But, we would have appreciated a bit more privacy.

Thank you for your kind review—we’re so glad you and your family enjoyed the beachfront location and those beautiful sunsets! We did a check on our end and unfortunately can’t see any email replies, but we're happy you were able to connect with us through VRBO and WhatsApp. The home does come with a daily complimentary housekeeper to ensure our guests don’t have to lift a finger! That said, as you mentioned, we’re always happy to adjust the schedule for more privacy when preferred. Thanks again for your feedback—we appreciate it and hope to host you again!

We will be back! As returning locals, we know the island well and have stayed in several beach homes during our visits. This was one of our favorites. The beach was quiet without much foot traffic. The house was clean and comfortable without being too fussy. The kitchen was well equipped and we cooked several meals during our two week stay, which we enjoyed on the beautiful deck overlooking the sea. The house is located between two supermarkets with a wide variety of dining options within a short driving distance (a few walkable). The housekeepers were friendly and helpful, and kept the place very clean each day. There was a variety of places to relax, including loungers, deck seating, and couches. We swam and snorkeled right in front of the house each day, and just popped in and out as we needed a break. Overall, 10/10 experience!

Perfect rental

This place does not disappoint! On one of the nicest beaches in Barbados! The deck was perfect for outdoor eating and lounging in and out of the sun. It had all amenities and was so clean!! Currently there is construction going on next door but eventually you forget it’s going on, because everything else is perfect. The lounge chairs for the beach were very much appreciated. We sat under the palm trees most days. Would return again in a heartbeat.
