About this property

2200 sq. ft. Glitter Bay Penthouse on the best beach and resort in Barbados


Welcome to the Sea Turtle Penthouse at Glitter Bay Estates; the premium destination for comfortable rental living on Barbados' spectacular West coast.

We are situated on the most scenic and quiet beach of the famous West Coast, where the endangered Sea Turtles safely lay their nests. We are next door to many private mansions and the Fairmont Royal Pavilion Hotel. You can leisurely stroll for miles along the beach and within minutes you will find the Folkstone Wildlife preserve for amazing snorkeling, shopping in Holetown, and many other hotels where you can dine such as the famous Lone Star Restaurant and Hotel.

The Glitter Bay property is more than a simple condominium, as it was for many years part of the first class Fairmont Hotel: you will enjoy the amenities of a full service resort within a gated community, including concierge service, maid service with in suite laundry facilities, and the excellent beach bar offering refreshing drinks, a light lunch, or a sun-down rum punch!

The architecture reveals a definite Spanish influence, with whitewashed walls and terra cotta roofs. All of the balconies face South West with an excellent view of the grounds, the sunset and our own family of Green Monkeys! The Sea Turtle Penthouse has an excellent view of the sea. Glitter Bay is the only property in Barbados where the footprint of the buildings is only a small portion of the beautifully manicured grounds. This can clearly be seen on Google Earth (13º 12' 02" N, 59º 38' 29" W).

The Glitter Bay Estates Sea Turtle Penthouse is a 2200 sq.feet penthouse on 2 levels, with 3 bedrooms each with their own private balcony and en suite bathroom. There is a full kitchen, large living room, and large dining table for 8 people on the main balcony. It is fully refurbished to hotel standard. It can also be rented as a 2 bedroom penthouse (please inquire about rates).

The amenities include:
Daily maid service (except Sundays)
Washer & Dryer
Fully Air-Conditioned
Satellite TV in the living room and each bedroom
High Speed Wireless Internet
CD player with iPod connection

About the host

Hosted by Sea Turtle Penthouse -

Host profile image
We are a family from Montreal, Canada who used to own a condo in Florida UNTIL we tried Barbados. We simply fell in love with the island and its wonderful people.

Ironically, our first stay in Barbados was at Glitter Bay when it was run as a hotel. We tried other Caribbean venues, but always came back here.

When Fairmont decided to sell the property in 2005, we were lucky enough to be here at Glitter Bay and were able to secure the only Penthouse available!

Glitter Bay is now our 'feel good' place, and we stay here at least 8 weeks every year

Why they chose this property

Simply put:
Best beach
Best property
Best amenities (concierge, beach bar, reserved seating on beach)
Gated community with 24/7 security

What makes this property unique

Peace and quiet!

Glitter Bay is an expensive venue attracting a sophisticated clientele. You won't find the college crowd on their Spring break!
