The best holiday of our lives!

My husband, myself and our 7-year old son had an incredible time at the Spyglass house. Our experience on this island topped our expectations. We thank Mark, our house manager, and the cleaning staff for making our stay unforgettable. We really got to connect as a family by going hiking and snorkeling everyday! Thank you and hope to see you soon!

World-class views

Very nice villa with some of the most spectacular views you’ll find anywhere in the world. Good hikers can walk into/from the village of Windwardside — be prepared for a steep hill on return. We were 4 adults, though 6 would be very comfortable. All conveniences are in the house. Mgmt: 1 sink awaiting repair parts; we never found the orientation book. We appreciated the mid-week cleaning service, but would like to be notified of that before they intrude on our privacy.

About the host

Hosted by Barney Gibbs

Father and Son, Chris and Barney Gibbs are born and bred-Barbadians. Saba and Barbados have shared seafaring traditions since the 17th century, and the flat, limestone island to the South is a vastly different landscape to Saba's volcanic peaks. But both islands are home to Chris and Barney.

Why they chose this property

Purchased as a virtual ruin in 2009, the Barbadian owners of Spyglass Villa have meticulously renovated the property as a refuge for all who choose to stay here. Through careful study of the unique Saban vernacular in its over 100 year old cottages, we have not departed from the well-crafted and intricate details of Saban architecture, while also maintaining a contemporary, but comfortable feel in the property. Saba is a quiet and charming island surrounded by spectacular sea and mountain views and each space in the home was designed to ensure that visitors enjoy peaceful respite from the hustle and bustle of the outside world.

‘Spyglass’ is the current name given to the property which was formerly constructed and occupied by well-known Saban Calvin Holm.

After a few visits to the island the current owners decided to undertake a renovation of the property to make the house befitting of the beautiful, almost 360 degree views of the sea and mountain.

What makes this property unique

Spyglass offers guests the comfort of tradition with modern conveniences. Spyglass is a sanctuary where you can choose to switch off and just contemplate life as the clouds circle around your little mountainous retreat.

Spyglass features a large modern kitchen and several indoor and outdoor dining options. Bedrooms are generous with full en-suite bathroom/shower.

Guests of Spyglass Villa will have access to free WiFi, Cable TV and the full amenities listed.
