The most wonderful holidays
It's a place to be! It was our first time in Barbados and staying at Angela & Richard's place only added to the great experience we had. The property is perfectly located - easy walking distance to bus stops and the beach. If you have a car, you can get to the city centre and to a fish market very quickly. The property itself is clean, cosy and everything you need for your stay is there. All you need to do is get some groceries. Breakfasts and dinners on the veranda are perfect. I could go on and on and on... Anyway, I couldn't recommend this place more! Book it quickly and enjoy your getaway.

A wonderful holiday
We loved our time at Porters Court... the property is exactly as described, it is a really charming little house in a great area with easy access to the local beaches and beach bars. The swimming pool is great too and really convenient being right on the doorstep of the property itself. We stayed there with our 16month old daughter and it was ideal being able to relax poolside while she was asleep! All of the amenities were great and whilst we decided not to get a car, the busses go from the main road and are very frequent. Holetown is a short distance one way and Speightstown the other way. There are great local options for food with the Lonestar just over the road and Juma's a little further on. And there is also a lovely patisserie a 10min walk towards Holetown. The hosts were great and arranged a light shopping list for us so that we had food upon arrival. Communication was really good throughout and Tonya the house-keeper saved us when Virgin Atlantic left our travel cot at Heathrow(!)... she managed to get us another cot at really short notice which really was a life-saver! Maxine the housekeeper is also great and our little girl took a real shine to her. Overall we loved it and were already discussing our next visit before we left! Highly recommend, you won't be disappointed...

Holiday under covid
The villa is nice and in a very quiet area. We would probably have enjoyed it more had we not been under quarantine rules. This restricted us a lot. We were frustrated that we couldn’t sit by the pool, which was 6 steps away from our patio and there was no one else around. Social distancing could easily have been put in place. If we had known this beforehand, we would have booked a villa with a private pool. There is only shade to sit in if you are a sun worshipper, and you are stuck in that for 5 days. It is a pretty property though and handy to all you need, once you escape quarantine. We didn’t see or hear the property manager, other than once we needed to contact her. A check in call would have been appreciated. Little overpriced for what you get.

The perfect home away from home
We absolutely loved our stay at this property. The location was perfect - just a couple of mins walk to the beach. There is a lovely bakery just along the road as well as a small grocery store. Lonestar is a lovely restaurant for eating and there are a few others on the beach which are great for something less formal such as Ju Jus. You can hire comfy beach beds and umbrellas from Rico at the beach. Holetown is just a few mins by car and has a supermarket and lots more places to eat. We would recommend Tides for a special night out. The house itself has everything you would need and is extremely comfortable. We spent nearly all of our time when we were home on the veranda or at the lovely pool which us literally five steps from this property! Richard and Angela were excellent hosts and the information pack we received in advance was the most comprehensive we have seen in over 30 years of staying at vacation rentals. They also arranged shopping to be delivered to us since we were in quarantine for a couple of days on arrival. All in all, just the perfect home away from home, in a wonderful location! We hope we get the chance to return to Barbados and we would definatrly stay here again!

Welcome to Sandy Lodge!

Thank you for your interest in our villa.

Please do contact us by email or mobile 07860 892015 (text if you get no reply) if you have any questions regarding availability and pricing. We will do all we can to help. Our website www.staybarbados.co.uk has a lot of information about our villa and the beautiful island of Barbados.

We love the island - the people, the laid back feel, the beaches and the wide range of things you can do on the island. Barbados is a very easy place to holiday - nowhere is too far, nothing is too much trouble!

We look forward to welcoming you to Barbados!

Why they chose this property

We really liked this property because not only is it poolside, but in a traditional chattel style design. The lovely wrap around veranda is perfect for relaxing, chatting and drinking a cool beer - well that's what we do!

Our villa is surrounded by beautiful, well cared for tropical gardens and in a well run and small development, which is secure.

We were also attracted by our villa's fabulous location. Porters Court enjoys the best of both worlds - within a peaceful and tranquil garden yet just 4 minutes walk from a beautiful sandy beach with bars and restaurants. Lone Star and JuJus are two well known bars and restaurants and are a 5 minute stroll away.

You do not need to hire a car as the shops, beaches, bars and restaurants of Holetown are a 5 minute bus ride away. Speightstown is a 10 minute bus ride away. The bus stop - with frequent buses - is a 2 minute walk from Sandy Lodge.

We want you to feel as at home as we do and we have furnished and equipped our villa in a contemporary style with quality finishes to make you feel comfortable and relaxed and have all you require for a safe and very enjoyable holiday.

What makes this property unique

Not only is our villa in a fabulous location but we feel very fortunate to have a superb, small team of people - Property Manager, Housekeeper, Maintenance man and Gardener - who look after us and who will look after you too!

All members of our small team are there to make sure you have a comfortable, relaxing, safe and very happy holiday.
