Escape the hustle and bustle of the world in your own private holiday home hideaway at the exclusive Schooner Bay on the serene Platinum coast of Barbados. This spacious two storey condo is a stone’s throw away from the private pool where you can unwind with a book or just close your eyes and listen to the sounds of the waves lapping against the shore nearby. Schooner Bay has a very tranquil feel about it with loungers and seating areas strategically placed around the pool creating privacy for sunbathing while the bay is beyond perfect with powder-soft white sands and the turquoise sea is calm and crystal clear.

This luxury rental apartment itself is accessed from the breezy covered patio and features a relaxed open plan design with plush living room furniture, ideal for sinking into the couch to snuggle with a movie, and a fully equipped kitchen and breakfast bar where couples can whip up morning smoothies before getting ready to settle by the pool or on the beach for the day. There is also the option of dining on the patio al fresco with the fireflies and chirps of the crickets for romantic background music.

Upstairs in the loft is the master bedroom with a gorgeous plush king-sized four-poster bed giving it a tropical plantation feel. Double doors open out to a private balcony with glimpses of the ocean beyond. There is also a fold-out futon in the room where little ones can enjoy sweet dreams of the sandcastles they built and the green monkeys they waved at throughout the day. The walk-in closet is spacious and the en suite bathroom has a relaxing rain shower. The entire unit has central AC so you can plan your days in the sun and sand knowing that you can come back and relax in cool comfort before heading back out for a night of dining or dancing.

This stylish little oasis is ideally situated at the entrance of the charming historic town of Speightstown in the north of the island. The town itself is very laid back with a mix of beach bars, art galleries and shops and fine restaurants for foodies. The bustling Holetown area is only 10 minutes south and there you can find a more boisterous nightlife with the bars and restaurants along with 1st and 2nd Street lined with locals and visitors alike. We highly recommend you take in the karaoke at the One Love Bar on a Sunday night if you can! The Limegrove Lifestyle Centre, Chattel Village and Sunset Crest area are also popular hotspots with eateries, coffee shops and chic boutiques for duty-free shoppers. For golf enthusiasts, Royal Westmoreland and the world-renown Sandy Lane courses are also nearby. Life truly is best in the West, we guarantee you may never want to leave.
