About this property

Cliff Edge Villa - St. Philip

A cliff-edge breezy villa, also known as the Lilac Villa, facing the Atlantic. Quiet and secure residential neighborhood. Private dedicated pool. Gated parking. Grocery nearby. Dramatic cliff-side views and scenic evening strolls.

There are 3 ensuite bedrooms, all with terraces opening onto the sea. Perfect for 3 couples or a larger family. A foldout couch is suitable for small children. The morning sunrise over the ocean greets you from the balcony and can be appreciated with an early dip in the pool before coffee. Screening the sun by early afternoon, the shaded 2 level terrace overlooks the pool with the ocean just fifty yards beyond.

Two identical spacious master suites are upstairs with ensuite baths, all opening onto the upper terrace facing the ocean. The modern equipped kitchen and granite island seating expands outside as a focal point for conversation and relaxed dining on the tiled terrace.

Fully equipped, the coastal get-away has cable HD TV, local phone and stable wi-fi. The traditional Barbados multi-louvered house design, without glassed windows, provides constant flowing ocean breeze and a cool airy atmosphere. At night and during quiet moments of the day, you can hear the ocean surging against the rocks below.

The immaculately maintained 200 square foot pool faces the cliff with ledge seating for meditating on the deep blue and turquoise horizon. A BBQ allows for quick grilling of fresh fish from Oistens market. Less than 15 minutes from the airport, the safe residential neighborhood is quiet in the evenings for relaxing strolls along the escarpment and lanes.

Two beautiful white sandy beaches, including the world-famous Crane resort, are within 10 minutes’ drive north of the house, and more calm Caribbean beaches are plentiful 15-30 minutes south along the coast to Bridgetown. A grocery store and bakery is a short walk from the house, with a quick connection to the main island highway allowing fast access to tourist areas.

The Villa is located in a very quiet residential neighborhood therefore we do not allow gatherings other than those registered for the stay without prior approval.

Our local key holder can arrange to meet you at the airport and orient you to the property upon your arrival.

Would Return

If you want your trip to Barbados to provide a great pool, fantastic views and to be quite and removed from tourist traps, then this is the place for you.We absolutely loved our stay here, the property was spacious, open and the cooling breeze from the Atlantic, with the open louvres made sure that we were never too hot.David, the property manager, was wonderful, and thank goodness he was waiting patiently at the airport to show us the way to the property. He was very accommodating and available to help if needed. We would return.

Disappointing

Photos not recent, property looked neglected. No glass in windows so wind howled through louvres. Electrics were temperamental due to corrosion. About 40 planes a day pass over at around 1500 feet. Checked out early.

Amazing view

This is amazing house located right by Atlantic Ocean with amazing views from all rooms. Though house does not have AC you don’t really need it as Atlantic breeze makes the atmosphere very comfortable. Though Some of equipment (washer, fans) are quite old and rusted the view and location is great trade off for those cons. We did see atleast 4 centipede during our stay in house but I think that does come with location the house is at. Over all amazing stay and great unforgettable views.

Beautiful view every morning

This property overlooks the ocean and every bedroom faces the ocean as well. The kitchen and living room areas have doors that open to a pool and a view of the ocean. The cool breeze from the ocean was welcoming at night. There is no air conditioner. The property is dated and needs some fixing up. It will be sold soon, so hopefully the new owners will spruce up the place. David, the property manager was very helpful with getting us settled in and providing tips to get around Barbados. There is a bakery and busy grocery store nearby that is about 5 min away by car. Overall a nice property with amazing views.

The greatest view on Barbados

The house with great view over the Ocean was more than comfortable for our group of 5. Upper bedrooms have magical view also, from your bed! We rented a car and explored the island. The location was great. In very quiet area, surrounded with villas, and the breeze was just perfect. If you want a good rest, a relaxing view, a lot of space and lovely terasse in two levels, this is the best choice for you. The grocery market is 5 min drive away, for swiming an party you need a car. We warmly recomend the house. Last, but not least, the owners and their local representative David are very kind and helpful. Pick up at the airport and late check out were welcome presents for us. Thank you all!

A little worn around the edges.

Hi Your property has a beautiful view out across the ocean. Thank you for letting us stay. Wow, I totally appreciate the impact that the salt air has on the infrastructure. A couple of things worth considering: There is not a sharp knife in the place for chopping vegetables and fruit. David brought a new toaster after we mentioned it, thanks. The other one was dysfunctional. Worth setting up a monthly plan for the shower head descaling. Of 4 showers only 2 actually worked and they needed cleaning. The outside shower we were told had never worked. We took off the head and found that it did work and so cleaned a shower head and had it working. The other shower we were told just had to have the head cleaned. The fact was that it did not work at all. Might be worthwhile having the cleaners do a little check before they leave to make sure everything actually works. Although we found it fun to see where all the different planes were heading it is not quiet for a stretch of the afternoon and late evening. I can appreciate why you dont want to mention it.

Overall a lovely stay

The neighborhood is nice, quiet. It’s my favorite area to stay in Barbados. The view from both verandas is absolutely gorgeous. They layout of the house is well done, and airflow is great. Sunrise and moonrise are a sight to behold. The only true drawbacks are minor: most of the pots and frying pans need replacing (peeling/scratched/old). We were able to use 1 out of the 3 frying pans for breakfast, because the other 2 Teflon pans were so scratched up that they wouldn’t have been safe to use. Again, minor because everything else about the house and experience made for an enjoyable vacation.

Great holiday home

Communication from the minute we booked was superb. David the house manager met us at the airport and took us to the home, showed us how everything worked and even took us to do a couple of food shops throughout our stay. Beds were comfortable, villa was lovely and spacious and the pool was great. Views over the ocean will be something that I’ll never forget! Thank you for giving us a great base to visit this amazing island!

The house is nice, spacious, clean and great to have your own pool and view of the ocean. We appreciated being picked up and dropped off at the airport. If you're nervous about driving on the left, this might not be the house for you because all destinations require driving.

Highly recommended

We stayed at this property for a couple of days. Phillip sent Angela to meet us at the airport and to help us find a grocery store. During the whole experience and even before traveling, Phillip was very helpful as he called us many times to check if we need anything. I give it a 5/5 for the hospitality and the amazing view. Very relaxing and quiet spot. I highly recommend this property! Even the neighbors are super friendly. But I really recommend you to get a car to easily travel around.

Beautiful setting on the Atlantic

We stayed for a week early December. Still quite windy that time of year and the house definitely showed signs of salt damage. We had a few issues with appliances but owner was very attentive to our needs. Getting used to the sounds of the waves and frogs was a bit of a challenge. Bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper! We were also kept awake by barking neighbourhood dogs. The constant breeze, lovely garden, pool and balcony and what felt like a safe neighbourhood were so appreciated.

Un paradis sur terre

Nous avons passé un séjour extraordinaire à la Barbade malgré la période compliquée du Covid 19 et la quarantaine plus longue que prévue. Mais heureusement, David nous a beaucoup aidé dans toutes les démarches administratives pour réaliser nos tests de départ. Il a été vraiment à notre écoute et il a fait vraiment tout ce qu’il pouvait pour résoudre nos problèmes de communication car nous ne parlons pas très bien anglais. La maison en elle-même est simplement magnifique. Un petit paradis sur terre. Quel bonheur de se réveiller le matin et d’admirer le bleu de l’océan et du ciel sous une température toujours agréable et égale. L’ile est de toute beauté, la côte Est est très sauvage, la côte Ouest est beaucoup plus touristique mais tout aussi jolie. Les plages sont magnifiques et les habitants sont d’une gentillesse incroyable. Nous recommandons à cent pour cent cette location . Steven, le propriétaire, a toujours répondu très rapidement à nos demandes, et a été très arrangeant à tous points de vue. Un grand merci à tout le monde et peut-être à une prochaine fois. Très cordialement Daniele et Pascal

Beautiful property on a beautiful island

We had a very good time at the lilac Villa. The view from the bedrooms is fantastic and there were almost no mosquitos in the property. The Villa has stable WiFi, which is fast enough for streaming services (we brought our fire tv stick). David was very kind and met us right at the airport, so we could follow him to the property. On the day of our departure we were allowed to check out late, which was very nice, because our flight took off in the afternoon. The Island has a good Highway so you can easily reach the southern and western beaches by car. Therefor the location of the Villa is good to explore the Island. The showers and the warm water were always reliable, just as the kitchen equipment and everything else in the Villa.

A quiet escape

This property is one quiet neighborhood and has ocean views that are amazing! You will need a car if you want to see the island. The airport is very close and planes fly over often. I would bring an eye mask for sleeping because the sun will wake you at 5am. But its quiet at night so we went to bed at 930 and woke early. The pool is so refreshing and right off your deck. There is sun and shade for all to enjoy. Bring your sun screen the sun here is hot! The wifi doesn't reach the upstairs most night but this forced you to rest which we all need to do. Kitchen is well stocked.

Un petit coin de tranquillité

un petit vent permanent bien agréable Une vue sur l’ocean plein Est, le petit déjeuner en regardant le soleil se lever et la température prendre 4 à 5 degrés en quelques minutes, quel bonheur ! La voiture est indispensable. La personne qui vous accueillera ..., est une personne extraordinairement gentille et disponible. Un séjour merveilleux, une population extrêmment accueillante, une nature préservée et la rencontre de merveilleuses personnes. Très proche de l’aeroport, des axes routiers permettant de vous rendre partout sur L’îsle, de certains commerces. Il vous faudra prendre votre voiture pour vous rendre sur les lieux festifs plutôt localisés dans le sud de l’isle. Bref un voyage qui nous laissera que de bons souvenirs, avec des images plein là têtes et une seule envie, y retourner !

About the host

Hosted by Steven Kelly and Phillip Miller

On one of our morning walks on a visit to the island in January of 2010 we came upon a surveyor working the cliff edge. We fell in love with the view, purchased the land and built a holiday villa soon after. While we built it for personal use, the design with the 3 bedrooms open to the sea had a primary interest for future guests to enjoy.

Our dream came to life in this wonderful home by the sea. We hope that you find the peace and relaxation during your stay that we do.

Enjoy the wonderful breeze, sunrises and crashing waves. Please enjoy your stay and treat our home as if it were your dream home.

Steven, Mari, Phillip and Teri

Why they chose this property

We had been renting in St Philip for many years and had always been looking for an ocean front to build a getaway home. This perfect spot has constant ocean breezes and dramatic views in a peaceful setting. An excellent spot for short visits or extended stays.

What makes this property unique

Dramatic cliff-side views in a quiet residential neighborhood allow for scenic evening strolls. All bedrooms open directly to sea views, with a 2nd floor large terrace connecting the two masters. The ocean breezes require no air conditioning. The traditional Barbados multi-louvered house design, without glassed windows, provides constant flowing ocean breeze and a cool airy atmosphere.
