As well as a private pool at the villa you can also swim in the large Beach Club pool with lockers, showers, changing rooms and loungers directly accessing the beautiful sandy beach and adjoining the Beach House bar and restaurant.

Whether you decide to hire a car or not, there is plenty to do around Sunset Crest and Holetown all within walking distance. Travelling around the island is easy by bus, hiring a car or by taxi.
The villa also has access to the Sunset Crest beach club, via a security card. There is a large communal pool with free loungers and access through a security gate to the sandy beach and West coast board walk.

About Katie Shellard
Hi, I am Katie. Welcome to 180 Biflora Row, Sunset Crest. This villa was purchased in 2012 and has been carefully renovated. Modernising this lovely villa was quite a task, but I hope you will agree this is now a very comfortable holiday home.
The villa was built in the 1960s and we wanted to keep the traditional charm of the villa but add some modern touches, such as the pale ceramic floor tiles and useful dishwasher, All the linen and towels have been upgraded to cool clean cotton and crockery and cutlery are all new with a generous supply of wine and cocktail glasses. We hope that you will find this villa a warm and welcoming holiday home.
We have high standards, keeping the villa clean and tidy. We expect our guests to do the same and respect the villa. The villa is beautifully cared for by our lovely housekeeper and guests will find crisp cotton sheets and towels on arrival plus beach towels for use by the pool or beach. If you are looking for a smart, comfortable, Non-smoking, family villa, we would be pleased to welcome you.

Why Katie Shellard chose Sunset Crest
Sun, sun, sun! There are few places in the world you can go during the winter and guarantee it will be sunny and warm. And this is one. If you're looking for an escape from the gloom and rain in the UK or perhaps Canada, look no further. Even when it does rain in Barabados it is always warm.
What makes this villa unique
This is one of the few properties in Sunset Crest that has a private pool. If you'd like to take a dip at 6:00 a.m or midnight, the pool is only a few steps away. No need to share with the neighbours!
We have a very friendly and knowledgeable property manager - Rachel. She will meet you at the villa and show you round. She is happy to advise on anything you may need during your holiday, such as groceries, baby sitting, restaurants.
A membership card for the Sunset Crest beach club is provided and will also get discount at several local stores and cafes.
As we spend several weeks every year in the villa ourselves, we do try to ensure that there is everything you need for a really enjoyable vacation.
Holetown is the centre of the glitzy West coast and staying at Biflora, you are minutes away from all the amenities.This villa is within walking distance of the beach, supermarket, restaurants and bars. If you don't want to hire a car for your stay, you have everything you need a short stroll away. Taxis and buses are easy to get if you are sightseeing or going to the airport.
Guestbook comments from the owner
What a find! We stayed in the same area (Sunset Crest) last year which we found to be quiet and safe and only a few minutes walk from the beech, shops and restaurants. The villa is set in the centre of a fenced garden and has been cleverly upgraded recently including a private, illuminated swimming pool and sun deck which is perfect for those looking to get away from people and not fight over sun loungers.
One of the highlights of our stay was that we seemed to be on the monkey route and several mornings we were being stared at by a troup of at least 15 monkeys walking across the fence. Magic!
The villa is very clean and smart and the kitchen is modern and well equiped and has a verandah perfect for dining and takes in the breeze. If the housekeeper Shirleen offers her daughter's services for an Island Tour take it as we did. We had a great day out which included St Nicholas Abbey (its a plantation house not an Abbey) and now makes its own rum.
Our favorite restaurant was The Cliff which was complete restaurant theatre and a must for a special occasion but Google it and book from home before you go as it is that popular.
We had a wonderful time and would have no hesitation in recommending 180 and we would be happy to go there again (and we have never said that before).

Thank you 😎?💜?😎?😎?😎?😎?
Perfect house and location!
We just spent a week in this great house- 4 adults (parents and kids ages 18 & 21). It is in a quiet, very safe neighborhood in Sunset Crest. Every night, we headed down to the beach club & waterfront for the amazing sunsets after a busy day of exploring all the beaches on the island. We're within walking distance to great restaurants and fun nightlife in Holetown. We were centrally located to everything. Our week was very unusual with a front that brought in incredible waves. Our son surfed in the beautiful Caribbean waters and was living the dream! We snorkeled in Brandon's bay and sweet loggerhead turtle swam with us! Unbelievable! We're already hoping we can make another trip and stay in this same house! Highly recommend!!!
This house was absolutely perfect for us.
This house was wonderful. There was more than enough space for the five of us and the layout was great. The outside dining area was perfect as was the pool area and garden. The kitchen was also very well equipped. The location was also very convenient for Holetown and the local beaches. We used the local buses to get around if we wanted to travel further afield. We would highly recommend this property.
we would stay there again!
We were impressed from arrival to departure. The villa met all expectations. Arrangements for our needs were met down to the last detail. The arrival package (tea/coffee/etc) were much appreciated. We were late arriving and it gave us the lift to get started.
Thanks to all involved!!
A lovely villa in a great location near the beaches and restaurants but also very quite and safe
We went to Barbados for my 50th birthday in June 2017 with my son, daughter, her partner myself and my husband. We were of various ages ranging from 19 to 60. We all loved the villa as it had lovely gardens with palm trees and beautiful flowers. it was very quiet but 10 minutes walk to the beaches and restaurants, and also the bus stop, so the best of both worlds. We also felt very safe. Sunset crest is a lovely area, which is well maintained all over, there is always a gardener somewhere keeping the gardens looking pristine. Our villa had everything we needed for a 2 week stay. Lots of games, all the bedrooms were of adequate size and all air conditioned. the kitchen was well equipped and lovely Charlene came twice a week to clean the bedding etc. The pool was an added bonus and was lovely to swim in the mornings while having breakfast. We also had monkeys and humming birds visiting us. A great bonus was the beach club pool right on the beach , we used this everyday after coming off the beach to cool down. This place is kept very clean and there is always a sunbed available and a great ice cream parlour a few doors away. Nothing is too much trouble here and everyone is very relaxed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Biflora and would recommend this villa to anyone wanting an all round great holiday in Barbados.

Great villa....great stay
We had a wonderful week in the Villa....very well equipped and of course made great use of the wonderful pool. Short 5 minute walk to Beach Club which is another huge plus. Enjoyed the support system of Villa manager (who was waiting for us on arrival) and the housekeeper who we chatted to while she was here....Villa is truly spotless. If you are looking for a peaceful holiday in Barbados....this would be it! Thanks >>>Steve & Brenda. Toronto
Location
If you are planning a beach or golf holiday in Barbados, 180 Biflora is ideal; only 5 minutes from the gorgeous West Coast sandy beach of Holetown. The villa is located in a quiet cul-de-sac in the heart of the peaceful residential area of Sunset Crest on the Platinum west coast of Barbados. It’s a quiet location with easy access to some of the best restaurants, bars and beach all within a 5 minute walk.
You have the added benefit of a private pool at the villa and use of the Beach Club pool and facilities at the Holetown beach. You can sun bathe all day long on the villa’s pool deck or sit in the shade of the patio, read and watch the bird-life. You’ll find in Barbados there is never a rush to do anything.
The villa is maintained to a very high standard which we expect our guests to respect. We value our maid highly and she will ensure the villa is spotless for you. All the louvred windows can be opened in the day to allow the east to west breeze to cool the house and give that outdoors/indoors feel to the place.
***
Sunset Crest is a lovely leafy mature residential neighbourhood scattered with interesting tropical trees, after which the roads are named. A tropical garden surrounds the villa with mature mango, palms, and almond trees for shade. Humming birds are regular visitors to the garden.
It is an easy stroll to Holetown, where you can find a supermarket, lots of different restaurants and cafes, boutiques, deli, Cave Shepherd department store and duty free, banks, post office and Lime Grove cinemas. First street offers live night-time entertainment on Friday.
For sight-seeing further afield there is a taxi rank in Sunset Crest, or the local buses run every few minutes to Bridgetown and elsewhere. Bus stops are within a short stroll. Car hire can be arranged.
We have a Welcome Pack at the villa full of ideas for trips around the island, useful contacts for all sorts of activities and a list of local restaurants and menus is included.
