About this property

Beautiful One Bedroom Ocean View Gem

Freshwater Bay is one of the best-kept secrets on the island. Your journey begins when you take that turn off of the Spring Garden Highway onto a private road. You first view the large Light and Power station and you start to wonder if you have made the right decision booking this apartment. As you round the first corner, there is a small fishing village with men attending to their boats and roaming chickens casually going about their daily routine. Your concerns heighten about this location, Freshwater Bay sign emerges on your left. Upon opening the wooden gate to the facility from the car park your breath is immediately taken away by the beauty of this place. The vibrant colourful flowers and tropical fauna that line the small pathway towards the lush gardens sprinkled with coconut trees which naturally welcomes you in. Meandering down the short pathway the beauty of the stunning calm ocean boasts of hundreds of shades of blue which is just steps away from your apartment. Now surrounded by the tropical gardens you are enticed to sit under the shaded palm trees to read, lay on the loungers and sunbath​ or sit in the Gazebo and watch the cruise ships or the local fishing and sailboats​ pass lazily by. However,​ before you get lost in just what to do first you have to get settled.

#6 is on the first floor and offers an open plan concept. The entrance leads you into the large living area which offers a futon and two large chairs for your comfort. The living room naturally leads you to the patio which is ideal for dining or just sitting and enjoying the ocean views. Off of the living room which is also equipped with a large 55" smart TV for your entertainment is the second bathroom. The Galley style kitchen which is outfitted with white countertops and blue trim is fully equipped with an electric oven, microwave, ​and large fridge. In addition there is ample cupboard space. Next to the kitchen is the air-conditioned large primary bedroom that boasts of a King size four poster bed and built in cupboards. The master bathroom is en-suite with a large shower. The apartment has for your use and enjoyment two garden loungers and FREE wifi. On site there is FREE parking in the private parking lot and a laundry room outfitted with washers and dryers for your use. (Washers require $5.00 bds coins per load)

Barbados Perfection
This was our sixth and best visit to the island paradise of Barbados! We loved the slightly off-the-beaten-path location and the proximity to small local hangouts and the fish market at Pile Bay. The apartment was beautifully appointed, very clean, nicely decorated, and had everything we needed during our ten-day stay. We LOVED the balcony! Listening to the waves as we watched the sun go down each evening was bliss. And drinking our coffee as the island woke up was the perfect start to each day. We enjoyed daily swims in the ocean - the beach was ideal for swimming and long walks. We enjoyed the great Stade's rum-tasting beach experience, it was just a short walk south along the beach to get there. La Cabane restaurant (also on the beach) is a slightly longer but manageable walk north. The owners, Lisa and Chris were very responsive and superb hosts. We hope to return one day soon!

Excellent Beachfront Accommodations
We had a great stay over the US Thanksgiving holiday and Barbados Independence Day holiday (sheer coincidence) - 11/27 - 12/1. All the positive reviews need not be repeated, they are all accurate. We must say that the light & power plant smoke or humming is barely noticed (if at all) with all else happening around you: mini resort with gazebo, loungers, stunning beach; cruise ships, sailboats, tankers and fishing boats for distractions. The property for us was in a remarkable quiet location immersed in the culture and still secluded by your private apartment. The laundry room is shared by everyone so it gets busy after 9:00 am so start early or late afternoon (3 washers ($5BD coins each) and 2 free dryers). Skip across the street for basic lunch or the light and power cafeteria (parking lot) for alternate lunch options which finishes around noonish or earlier. SeaCat Restaurant was a wonderful experience for dinner (get there early). Lisa was a pleasure to communicate with before and during our short trip. Thanks.

Excellent Stay, Lovely Grounds
Spent 10 lovely nights in Lisa apartment, communication with the host was excellent and everything as described Lost lost one star for being next to the power plant, which I knew when I booked and didn’t detract from my stay

clean apartment with amazing views
We enjoyed our stay very much. The apartment was clean and nicely decorated. And the views from the balcony were breathtaking. We particularly loved the welcome sign on the wall with our name on it! Overall, a really great place to stay, highly recommended.

Great secluded area
This property is tucked away in an area that doesn’t see swarms of tourists. Most days we were the only ones on the beach. There is a power station nearby that does emit a humming noise some days, but for the most part we didn’t notice it. Beach and water is amazing and picturesque. Property manager was very responsive and ensured we had everything we needed. Loved that we could easily access any area of the island from it easily. The unit was very clean and comfortable. We were more concerned with the beach when booking and the beach was exactly how the photos looked. You could walk quite a ways down the beach. We were able to do a lot of snorkelling right by the property.

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Coyle

Host profile image
We would like to introduce ourselves. Chris and Lisa. We both were born and grew up in Barbados. We both were educated locally and have worked on the island all of our life. Our three children, two boys and one girl are our greatest achievements. Although we like to travel and still have many places still to visit, we still feel Barbados is the best place to live. So we invite you to enjoy our island.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Freshwater Bay the day we stepped through the doors of the property. It took us 10 years to eventually be able to purchase a property here and love each minute we spend at the apartment ourselves when we have the opportunity. We found the place peaceful, charming, quiet and with just a few apartments on the property it is like home away from home.

What makes this property unique

When we visit Freshwater we enjoy just sitting in the patio looking out at the view. Kicking back in the Gazebo while Barbecuing some fresh fish. Watching the birds pick the small bait fish out of the water, observing the large cruise ships arrive and leaving from the port, walking the beaches, going for refreshing dips in the ocean. Meeting different people at Karaoke on Thursday nights at Bush Bar or simply just reading under the trees whilst slowly drifting off to sleep. However, at the end of each day we prepare to witness the beautiful sunsets to mark the end of another beautiful day at Freshwater Bay and look forward to doing this all over again tomorrow.
