Stunning Family Villa with Private Pool Near Beach - Gibbs Glade Villa

Magnificent villa! Everything is very well thought out, even the little baskets at the entrance for carrying groceries or beach towels. The kitchen is perfectly equipped, and despite its size, the house impresses with its very high ceilings. The outdoor living and dining areas are superb, well-covered, and ventilated. Daily housekeeping service, extremely friendly staff, and the host was always very responsive to our requests. A car is necessary (grocery stores are 14 minutes away). The fourth bedroom is located in a small, separate cottage by the pool, which is very pleasant and private, but quite small. We would return without hesitation.

Had a fantastic stay and Gibbs Glade villa. The house was spotlessly clean, with a well maintained garden and pool and great outdoor space. Everything required for a relaxing stay was provided. Beautiful beach is a short walk away but a car is needed if you want to explore the island further. Chanice was always responsive and helpful with any queries. I can't fault anything!

I had an amazing stay at this villa in Barbados. From the moment I arrived, everything was clean, beautifully maintained, and exactly as described. The space was comfortable, relaxing, and felt like a true home away from home.The location was perfect—close to the beach, restaurants, and everything I needed throughout my trip. I especially loved how peaceful and private the property was.Our host was kind, responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed for a smooth and enjoyable stay. Check-in was simple, communication was easy, and any small questions we had were answered right away.I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation in Barbados.

We had a wonderful family vacation at your Villa. It was perfect for our large family and close to the beach and restaurants. The Villa was extremely well kept, clean and comfortable. We'll definitely come again. Thanks

We had a great time. The house is comfortable and large enough to relax in the beautiful lush space. Rooms are comfortable. The outdoor space is fantastic. Less than a 10min walk to the beach. Definitely worth the money!

I would like to thank Charmaine and team for such an amazing stay at Gibbs Glade Villa. From booking to check out, the process was flawless and the actual villa was beyond anything we could imagine. We had all the expected conveniences and beyond, especially when traveling with little ones the fear is that something essential would be left at home, but this villa was equipped with everything! We spent our final day at the beach and in packing to head to the beach I realised that I forgot our beach bag at home, but right there at the front door were 2 beach baskets that held all our stuff. I will definitely be returning to this beautiful villa and also recommending to our friends and family. Our boys will never forget this vacation!

Our family of 7 adults stayed at Gibbs Glade villa for 14 nights in June and it was wonderful. The photographs on the website do not do it justice - light and airy, beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. The kitchen is fully equipped and there is a large barbecue. Shann was lovely, she took great care of the villa without ever being intrusive and Shanee was a huge help when we managed to lock ourselves out! Relaxing by the lovely pool was heaven, as were strolls to Mullins beach and Gibbs beach. The villa is in a great spot - very quiet and a short walk to Sea Shed, Larry Roger’s, Devon’s Corner and Bombas. There is also a garage/gas station just across from Bombas, handy for essentials. It was really easy to pick up a bus to get us to Holetown and Speightstown. We would all recommend the villa unreservedly and would all love to return - we had a ball!

The villa is well presented, situated ten minutes walk from two of the best beaches on the island, Gibbes and Mullins. It is large and open plan, with two double bedrooms and one twin bedroom each with plenty of storage and AC as standard. Two of the bedrooms are en suite whilst the third bedroom has the use of the 'family bathroom'. All bathrooms are clean and reasonably modern. The beds and bedding are of excellent standard. The fourth bedroom is in a garden room the other side of the pool and is smaller than the villa bedrooms. It has an adequate en-suite bathroom, also on the small side. The AC unit in the room leaked the day we arrived and resulted in soaked through mattress/pillows and bedding. We had to strip the bed and make the best of it until it was repaired the next day. The engineer told us the unit was dirty. The kitchen is large and modern and has most of the accessories you would expect. However, the drawers in the fridge were broken which resulted in limited storage space for bottles etc. Not what we expected. A spotlight in the kitchen flashed constantly but was not replaced during our 10 day stay despite more than one request. The highlight of the villa is the outdoor space, with a BBQ, large seating area for dinner and a separate lounging area. The pool area is great. However, there were only six sunbeds despite us being a party of 7. The cleaner (Shan) was helpful but communications with the housekeeper were slow. In summary, a nice stay.

we chose this location as we have been to this part of the island before and were able to have other family staying in a villa close by. It is our favourite area- so quiet but so close to the beach , easy to catch buses from the main road and drive the beautiful spots to visit in the north. The property is so clean and well looked after . We couldn't imagine why we might need a housekeeper and gardener so often, but in fact it kept the house, garden and pool area looking so good, clean and tidy. The communication with the owner is quick , seamless and helpful. The kitchen is well equipped - we were able to cook many family meals without struggle, the air con works perfectly and the daytime breezes keep the house cool in the day. The little cottage was perfect for a young couple and the mini gym was used by our group. Mullins and Gibbes beaches are so close, -all in all couldn't be better. Thanks Maria.

We’ve been coming to Barbados for years and have rented quite a few places. We know what makes for an enjoyable stay and this villa is the best of the best! We have stayed here a number of times and it’s like home to us. Besides being pristine, very-well appointed, spacious and a very short walk through a lovely, clean neighourhood to the best beach in Barbados, what we really like about this villa is: It’s QUIET!. No roosters, goats, chickens or dogs nearby. No traffic because it’s not a throughway. No kites flying. No noisy neighbours. Very few tree frogs singing in their loud voices at night. The breeze! We are comfortable all day and sometimes don’t even turn on the AC at night. We love hearing the gentle wind in the trees. It’s really soothing. The shade! The covered terrace facing the pool is huge and provides protection against sun and rain. Sun lovers can lounge around that pool and get their tan but the shade is welcomed relief. We live on that terrace. No mosquitos! This is a problem at many other rentals. We can leave the doors open and sit out at night. The furniture. The furniture is top quality and have thick cushions. Even the pool loungers have great cushions. The beds and pillows are comfortable. The bed linens are soft. There is comfortable seating for everyone, it’s not musical chairs. The ambience. The grounds and the house are so pretty. Night time can be enchanting. The lighting on the terrace is soft and the lights in the pool add to the magic. Restaurants within walking distance. Sea Shed, Royal Westmoreland, Adrian’s, Real Jamaican, Bombas, Cici’s and Grandene’s! The Housekeeper! Sophia is the best housekeeper on this island; she has very high standards for herself and she’s meticulous. She is very welcoming, caring, thoughtful and respectful. She starts early but stays at the back of the property doing laundry. She will very quietly sweep the terraces, tidy the cushions and wipe the tables. You won't hear her. She does not come inside until she sees you up and about. She’s very fast and very thorough. Sophia zigs when you zag, she’s never in your way. She will do what makes you happy. Response-time. When even the littlest problem crops up, the staff and owner are on it and it’s resolved as quickly as possible. They are really big into customer satisfaction. These are the reasons we keeping coming back!
