Villa Beachcliff, The Perfect Island Sanctuary

Rick was very responsive and accommodating. The property itself is old and tired, and in need of some maintenance. The lack of hot water and low water pressure for showers was disappointing. No air conditioning in the main living area made for hot nights when the doors needed to be closed at night. We enjoyed the island but would stay elsewhere next time.

Beautiful home, amazing views. We will be back!

It IS “ The Perfect Island Sanctuary “ - very accurate VRBO description! Especially a perfect place for families or groups. The Villa is large, spread out, quiet, relaxing, peaceful with great views and unique decor. Rick was the perfect host and readily available for all needs and suggestions. He was especially helpful arranging excursions, private chef, and rental car. Everything was so easy. I would definitely recommend sailing/ snorkeling one day and an island tour with Andy (fun and a wealth of knowledge with numerous connections). We loved walking across the street to see the Atlantic cliffs and blow holes and to the end of the street to see where the Atlantic and Caribbean meet - panoramic views!! We also walked to the university club for a great dinner and went to the beach and bars located on the same street as Villa. If you go, you have to get Rick to arrange Chef Kim to come to the house and cook your own private dinner - it was the best of the week (also convenient, and reasonable and so worth it) we wished we would have had him a second time. Book now because we will be sending all our friends and family to experience this wonderful place!

Rick was so responsive and helpful when our vacation travel plans got uprooted. Before our planned trip, he was very communicative. We are so upset that weather and wordly activities kept us from experiencing this beautiful place

We had a fantastic stay for our three generation, Grenada homecoming! The house was perfect with so many different outdoor spaces to enjoy with incredible views. Even with 10 guests in the house, we didn't feel like we were on top of one another at all. Rick was also a wonderful host who made sure we had everything we needed from a rental van, to a chef and groceries, and excursions. He was very responsive. Neighborhood was beautiful, quiet, and safe. We loved it!

We stayed at Villa Beachcliff for 9-days and had an absolutely incredible time. We booked the villa earlier in the year looking for a “no holds barred” kind of vacation with mom as she was recently diagnosed with early-stage Alzheimer’s so want to do as many amazing things with her while we can. The villa and Rick helped us meet that goal and more. There were 9 of us total, 5 adults and 4 kids, ranging in age from 16 to 7. The villa was perfect for us. As noted in other reviews, there was plenty of space for everyone to spread out, especially the older teenagers who unexpectedly even got their own room. The younger kids could also run around on their own without us having to worry about them…same deal for mom with her cognitive issues. We loved everything about the villa. There were so many different places to sit and enjoy different spectacular views. It was neat to have the Atlantic on one side and Caribbean on the others. There was always a great breeze coming off the Atlantic side to keep things cool. Our favorite thing to do while we were in Grenada was watching the evening sunsets from the upper deck balcony. Whatever we were doing during the day, we always made sure to get back each evening for the sunset. Simply amazing. We always felt safe there, as was the case in all of Grenada. The villa is located near the end of a street so traffic was minimal. We walked to dinner down the street a few evenings without issue. It was an easy 10 minute shot to

The property is LOVELY and in an EXCELLENT location. The owner/property manager, Rick, is very responsive which is great because we had several issues arise.When we checked in (per the check-in time), the house keepers where finishing up the kitchen We had gone grocery shopping so we worked around them, but felt bad since they were trying to finish up.We live on our boat all year so having a washer and dryer available is a BIG DEAL. And given the rental rate, you would expect to have a working washer/dryer. We were told upon check-in it wasn't working. Rick had someone come out 3 days later and completely dismantle the washer and repair it.In the meantime, the housekeepers came for their mid-week cleaning and we saw they had a washer/dryer in their storage room. We asked if we could use that one in the meantime and never got a direct answer. We used it once the housekeepers were done. That evening were told the closet was going to be locked-we had laundry in the dryer so we asked if it could please remain unlocked. Against his will he left it unlocked. We brought our own laundry detergent.A kitchen light bulb was burned out (along with others) so we tried to replace it and it popped the breaker which wouldn't reset so we cooked in the dark. The next day Rick came and completely rewired them to get them to work.We NEVER had hot water-told him about this multiple times and he tried to fix it.Overall great time!! But, the house needs some maintenance.

The property was lovely. Rick was available when we had a few issues - one being the power went out. It was the entire street and it was fixed quickly. Rick kept us posted. Our grandchildren loved the two pools. The outside patios had beautiful views that we all enjoyed. We highly recommend Villa Beachcliff.

House was very nice and in a great location. Sunrise over the Atlantic in the morning and sunset over the Caribbean in the evening. Both can be viewed from the lookout. Perfect size for the 8 of us.Rick was very good with all communications. The only issue we had was the hot water did not last long enough for the entire shower. Rick had it worked on a few different times while we were there. Thank you for letting us share your home for our family vacation!

The villa is absolutely stunning, the location is perfect and close to everything (but not too close!) and Rick and Karen are amazing and the most gracious hosts. Thank you, guys!

The house was amazing, with beautiful bedrooms each with a private bath, plenty of communal space inside and out, two lovely pools, and easy access to the rocky beach. You can view both the sunrise and sunset from the house. The hosts are very helpful, knowledgeable, and quick to respond to any communications. Don't hesitate to book this villa!

Our extended family of 8 enjoyed a wonderful week at Villa Beachcliff. We range in age from 13 to 80 and there was something for everyone. The two pools, private beach and lots of places to curl up with a book, beautiful views and ocean breezes. The villa is located in a wonderful area of Grenada where we could walk/jog and always felt safe. Rick and Karen are great hosts and communication was wonderful. They gave us some great recommendations including lunch at the University Club which is right down the road, the BBC beach which is a truly beautiful spot with lots of shade as well as sun. Breakfast at the West Indies brewery, cocktails at the Umbrella Beach bar. We took an excursion to the 7 sisters waterfalls and hiked down and jumped in the falls which our teenage daughters loved. The list goes on.... Thank you Rick and Karen for having us! We'd love to come back someday!

We traveled to Grenada to celebrate 31st wedding anniversary. My wife and I are usually accompanied by our sister and “aunt” for these trips to the Caribbean. We usually stay at a resort; this was our first time staying at a VRBO. There were pros and cons. The pros-Rick is an excellent host! He arranged a chef for a dip Ed our first joght-food was superb. He helped arrange excursions that were awesome and not offered through Viator. We was responsive when we found ourselves locked out of the unit. The villa is beautiful and in a great location. He arranged a car rental which came in quite handy which was brought to the Villa and picked up as welll which was quite convenient. He arranged out transfer to and from the airport. You could t ask more from a host! The cons-the group’s biggest gripe, not mine but I was the only male, was air conditioning. There is no central air and the individual units in the rooms did not always work well. You won’t have piping hot showers. That was less of an issue. The biggest complaint was the AC and for that reason I can’t say the group would return. I still would highly recommend staying at the Villa as I feel the pros outweighs the cons.

This house is beautiful and is as advertised! Rick was a wonderful host. He met us at the house for check in and showed us around the property. He was very responsive during the entire booking process and was a huge help with setting up a catamaran charter and private chef at the house. I would recommend this property to everyone! Would love to make another trip in the future.

The villa is in a stunning location - the view cannot be beat. Atlantic Ocean morning sunrises, Caribbean Sea evening sunsets. Walk down access to the sea is rustic but idyllic, we searched for shells, floated on the provided paddle boards & just enjoyed swimming in the sea. Definitely pack water shoes as it’s rocky and slippery. The deck landing close to the water was not suitable for hanging out, chairs could be updated and wood needs to be replaced. However, there are plenty of other spaces to sit and enjoy the view up at the main house. My personal favorite was the landing above the pools. Morning coffee, reading, extraordinary breezes - simply the best spot in the house. Suites were cozy and spacious, rustic island vibes. Wish there was air conditioning in the main house, the fans were not enough to stay cool comfortably, especially when the doors had to be closed to avoid the bugs. Not a property issue but the mosquitos are intolerable! Bring repellent, and extra! Half of our family got bit even in the suites despite taking closed door precautions. Pools were refreshing & perfect, hard to walk barefoot on the rocks near the lap pool & preferred the outdoor shower to the cinnamon suite one. Quirks of an island home but our family of 6 LOVED our stay! The owners, Rick and Karen are wonderful hosts with excellent tour/dining suggestions, top notch responsiveness + patience with our many questions/needs - check in with rum punch🍹& overall thoughtful attention to detail.
