Hotels in Speightstown, Saint Peter

This is a lovely place. If you are looking for that home away from home feeling, then this is the place for you. Very comfortable, modern and clean. The host, Dario, was wonderful. There is absolutely nothing I can complain about. This property is also close to a lovely beach. I absolutely love this place and will definitely be coming back.

The location and view is hard to beat. The unit is called Turtles Hideaway now after a refurb from when it was called Coral Sands. You are mostly tucked away from the hustle and bustle so it does appropriately feel like a bit of a hideaway and Sands Street beach is literally about 10 steps in front of the property. On top of this, you also have the incredible convenience of the local Speightstown amenities about 2 mins walk away with the restaurants and 2 mins walk in the other direction to what we considered the most quiet, peaceful and picturesque beach on the island hands down - Heywoods Beach. The incredibly popular street food stall Caboose is right there at the entrance too! Ashli the owner is very passionate and poured her heart and soul into preparing the spacious property for our comfortability. She is patient and accommodating and has thought of absolutely every single thing you could need for your stay. Things we thought maybe she overlooked were then found new and neatly packed in cupboards waiting for us to use during any weather. One of the room fans stopped working but Ashli turned up in the morning with a brand new, very decent one as a replacement. Her house keeper Sonjia also stops by regularly to service the place if and when desired. She is very nice and has lots of experience of the area. The security of the property also gave us real peace of mind. It has a dedicated, gated parking space at the rear, gates for the front entry and gates covering all the windows. Being a beach property, it is also all completely keyless entry if you want to use it that way. It's worth noting that the property is on two levels, upstairs and downstairs with another penthouse property on top of it; the pics may not show this explicitly. So even though the Baia restaurant obscures the gated view at the bottom, that isn't so much the case from the much wider view upstairs.

The location and the garden were excellent.

We were welcomed like family. De and Alex created the perfect place to spend some relaxing time in Barbados, and were always available to answer any sort of questions and give us some useful tips. This intimate condo was great for our family of 4 and perfectly equipped. The common areas are also very well maintained, with full access to an amazing swimming pool area, just perfect!

the beauty of the decor and the surroundings and the friendliness of the staff, with exceptional food

The location of the property is ideal. It’s quiet and safe and surrounded by monkeys, mongoose and hummingbirds which we saw daily. There is a beautiful view of the sea from the upper balconies too. It’s a moment walk down to a very quite sandy beach which was a delight to swim or board in every day. Some parts of the island are much windier and the sea wilder - this was perfect. We stayed at the end of April when there is a lot of seasonal seaweed on other beaches but it doesn’t seem to affect this part of the coast at all. We did hire a car (easily arranged by the staff who gave us a few numbers and choices and it was delivered to us) but often preferred the beach and the quiet of the villa. In nearby Spightstown there are some good lunch or dinner options. Caboose is instagrammable and prices to match but nice or Sunflower Rotis offer great takeout options at half the price. Similarly, restaurants range from stylish and concept to local too. The beach there (Heywoods beach) offers great snorkelling and sandy shores and good safe swimming. You’re also nearby 10 min drive to Animal flower cave - the breadfruit tacos there are amazing but for a group, the cave entry is quite pricey - but that’s similar for other attractions too eg Nicholas Abbey Distillery (also beautiful). Bathsheba bay is a 30 min drive (The Roundhouse is another good option for food and drink there or more local style Scotland View on the way). Part of the ease of the villa is the way it is managed and staffed. Housekeeper Dolorious kept the villa immaculate so it was like staying in a hotel in terms of crisp linen and freshly made beds and plentiful towels for beach and bathroom - and even managed our laundry for us. She was quietly, brilliantly efficient and much appreciated. There are some beautiful bedrooms and a lot of relaxing spaces - our main bedroom had a beautiful balcony overlooking the sea, and the wildlife - it was also enormous and similar to a Sandals suite we enjoyed years ago.
