We had a lovely family holiday in this exceptionally well kitted-out huge apartment. Marcia couldn't have been more helpful and responsive to queries. It was a little further to walk to the beach than I thought - 15 minutes at a good pace to Mullins (you could get to a quieter beach quicker) but a reasonable walk if you are dressed up and want to get a bus rather than a taxi. The only other tiny niggle was that there was no full length mirrors in the master suite or communal areas. This did't affect our enjoyment. We particularly liked the huge terrace with panoramic views.
Fantastic apartment with superb outside patio and 180 degree views. Well designed with oodles of space, amazing master bedroom and walk in dressing room - furnishings and decor. Exceeded the photos. Loved the generous little touches - great art work, lighting and the tea and coffee, quality toiletries and other items provided. Well fitted kitchen and great laundry room.. Marcia was a great host. Nice, well maintained pool area even if pool could have been a little deeper. Quiet, well situated location with private secure parking and plenty of green landscaping (complete with monkeys). Lift was a godsend, although there are some steps up to the main hall and entrance. Well located if a good 10 min walk to the beach.
Loved this property, you couldn’t ask for much more. As long as you are fine with a 8 to 9 min walk to the beach you will enjoy the huge upper deck with shade or sun with wonderful views of the sun set. The kitchen is also equipped with everything you could think of.
Great location to celebrate any occasion. Never got tired of our view of Gibbs Bay and the Caribbean Sea. We really enjoyed our suite which was a 3 bedroom, 3 bath condo with a huge balcony with views of lovely green foliage and the Caribbean sea in the distance. Absolutely gorgeous. Although there was only two of us, we chose this particular unit for the patio and the views. We took full advantage of our private patio every morning enjoying coffee, reading and enjoying the cool breeze in the shade overlooking the sea. It was perfect for sunsets and we enjoyed dinner many times as we watched many sunsets. The condo was excellent. Very clean and well maintained. There was everything we needed in the kitchen for making our meals. There's plenty of extra towels and additional beach/pool towels. There's two pools, but we didn't spend any time around them as we prefer to spend our time at the beach. The best grocery store is in Holetown, but I recommend driving or taking a taxi/bus as it's a fair distance. We did walk to Holetown one day and it took us about 1 and 1/4 hour. Gibbs beach is a 10 minute walk (we timed it) and was never very busy, we could always find a spot in the shade or sun on any given day. Marcia, the property manager was wonderful to work with. She met us at the condo and went through everything in detail. She was very easy to communicate with. Pearl, the house keeper was lovely and personable and did an excellent job. Unfortunately we didn't get to meet the rest of the staff that contributed to this beautiful property, but thank you as well. We would absolutely return and strongly recommend if you are looking for a peaceful place to vacation in Barbados:)
I would certainly return. The only flaw for us was early check out at 11 when all uk flights leave around 6 pm. You do in fact lose a day of your trip . Otherwise it was a fantastic stay in a beautiful place.
Great view with everything you need.
We had an amazing time at the property. It would have been nice to be closer to the beach, but it was a few blocks. Other than that, the property was spectacular, beautiful view, clean and elegant. Marcia the property manager was so kind, helpful and attentive, I would definitely work with her any time. The property was perfect for pur small group of 3 as we each got out own room with bathroom. It was a great time and I would definitely recommend
Great property. Marcia was great. Communication between us was superb. The property is close enough to where you are going to want to be. The dishwasher didn’t work while we was there but that wasn’t a major issue for us. Property altogether was great. Yes I would go again.
Our family just returned from a stay at Aurora Tropical. This condo is beautiful; the photos really don't do it justice. The views from the huge and comfortably furnished deck are gorgeous; I wish I had had more hours to spend just sitting out there. At night, you can see the cruise ships lit up sailing from port. In the mornings, you can open the master bedroom windows and enjoy the views from your bed. Otherwise, the incredibly beautiful Gibbs Beach is a short walk. The condo is immaculate and Marcia is a lovely manager, professional, helpful, and gracious. Thanks for a fantastic stay! We look forward to returning!
Luxurious apartment with fabulous outside space & 180degree sea views. Beautifully furnished & decorated, well equipped with 3 large ensuite bedrooms including a magnificent master. The roof terrace was fabulous, both for eating outside, sunbathing & stargazing! Everything provided you could possibly need, washing machine, tumble dryer, dishwasher, American fridge freezer, coffee maker, beach towels, hairdryers in each bedroom! Truly luxurious. Great location, easy to walk to the beach & buses. Marcia very welcoming, friendly & efficient & professional. We all loved it & will be back. Can recommend it without hesitation.
This was our second time in Barbados, a family of 5 with young children, and we were looking to return to the same part of the island given our first wonderful experience. This stay was even better, something we didn't was possible. First of all Marcia made sure we were taken care of from the first contact by email and by phone, with instructions and advice for all needs prior o our arrival. She met us at the apartment, made sure all was well and was always available (even a local cell phone is provided to reach her and for ease of use in Barbados). The first thing to say about the rental is the terasse and the wonderful views of the ocean. The apartment is spacious, clean and breezy. Door stoppers are needed to prevent doors from slamming! This is such a welcome relief given the hot temperatures. We never turned on the AC which is available in every room, only the fan. Each room is big and fully serviced. The kitchen is convenient and part of the family space. The finishing is all new, clean and charming. One senses how much attention Marcia has put into hosting. The pool is a welcome option when one wants to cool off or just doesn't feel the desire to return to the beech. There is a BBQ there which we used daily to prepare the fresh fish. There is even a convenient foot rinse tap and a shower by the pool for the return from the beach. The place is secure. The staff very friendly. The decor is elegant and intentional and the walk to the beach (only 7 minutes to Gibbs Beach) is a welcome opportunity to fully dry before returning home. Gibbs is one of our preferred beaches as the fish are only a few feet from the shore and trees are available for those looking for shades through the hotter part of the day. Needless to say, we shall return. Thank you Marcia.
