About this property

Fitts Village: Beachfront 2/2 Home On The Exquisite West Coast Of Barbados

Ocean Hollow is a charming 2 bedroom split-level house situated on the beautiful Fitts Village Beach on the highly sought after Platinum West Coast of Barbados. Each bedroom boasts an ensuite bathroom, one with a king bed and one with a queen. The main living room has a huge sliding glass door which opens up to the sparkly, clear, blue water of the Caribbean Sea.
NOTE: This house is totally self-contained, but there is a sister cottage on the property that is also self contained. The two properties are completely separate, with the only thing being shared is the access to the beach. If you are interested in adding the sister cottage (2 bed, 2 bath) to your reservation, just let us know via message.
The house is also perfectly located 10 meters from a bus stop which can take you to almost any part of the island. Also, being located on the West Coast of the island you will have access to some of the top cuisine and shopping destinations. We are also just a 4 km drive from the elite Lime Grove Lifestyle Center featuring some of the best shopping on the island and a beautiful cinema.
This house is perfect for the travelers who just want to sit back and enjoy watching the sun set over the Caribbean Sea and spend their days walking on our white sand beaches. It is also perfect for the more fast-paced traveler who wants to stay in a rich, vibrant area with access to some of the best bars in the busy 1st and 2nd Streets of Holetown, just a 15 minute bus ride away.
We are also situated just 3km from the University of the West Indies Cave Hill campus which makes us a perfect place for visiting students or parents.
Please do not hesitate to contact us with any further questions. As locals to the island, we can help you plan the most perfect vacation on our beautiful island Barbados!

Perfect tranquillity.
Fantastic location right on the beach. The bungalow is clean, well maintained and well furnished and kitchen has all that you need for adventurous cooking and cocktail making. If you’re not a sun worshiper, the mature trees provide and large veranda provide plenty of shade during the heat of day and a superb frame to the spectacular sunsets. The beach is never crowded. Bikini Beach Bar is 200m to the south and provides great snacks & drinks during the day and a full menu in the evenings. To the north is Crystal Cove where you can do all the usual water sports if desired.

Great location for our first visit to Barbados. The house has everything you need and with bus stops just outside it's easy to get around without the use of a car. Although not the most modern property it is clean and comfortable, at a great price. Chloe the host was very helpful and replied immediately to any enquiries we had. Would definitely recommend Ocean Hollow for your stay in Barbados.

Sweet place
We had a very nice stay. Lot's of keys to lock and unlock when you come and go, but got used to that pretty quickly. Internet was great, view could not be better. Kitchen well stocked so cooking was easy. Loved the trees on the property. Met the owners and they were helpful and delightful.

Highly recommend Ocean Hollow
We stayed at Ocean Hollow for 16 days in June 2023 and had such a great experience. The house is a cute beach cottage and is literally steps from the sea…just open the back gate and you are on the beach! The two bedrooms are comfortable, quite large and both have en suite bathrooms one w king bed and one w queen bed. Both bedrooms have air conditioning units that work very well. The indoor living area is comfortable but the best area to hang out in the evening is the back patio which is spacious with ceiling fans and has comfortable furniture. The kitchen is well equipped and the washer/dryer are so nice to have, especially when you stay for a longer period. Parking by the house is private and spacious and parks about 4 cars comfortably. Chloe, the Property Manager, is great and provides very detailed info and is available if you need her and is super responsive. Can’t wait for our next stay at Ocean Hollow ☺️

Typisch Caribisch verblijf
Alles wat je nodig hebt is er. Op de veranda staan comfortabele meubels, maar wat vernieuwing van het meubilair is aan te raden . Lekker dat er ventilatoren bij de veranda zijn. Op de slaapkamers is goede airco, dus de nachtrust is uitstekend. Huis staat aan zee, je kunt zwemmen voor het huis maar door de hoge zee niet altijd makkelijk. Je loopt zo naar het strandje ernaast. De woning voelde veilig, was schoon en had ruime parkeerplekken. Zou hier zeker nog eens heengaan. Het contact met Chloe de eigenaar was zeer goed. Ze reageerde snel op vragen. Top vakantie!

Lovely Villa at a great location
My wife and I stayed for 19 days at the property and it was perfect. Everything we needed, lots of space and right on the sea front. The location of the Villa is excellent, just a stroll down to Fitts village and Jordans supermarket or a bus ride into Holetown with the bus stops more or less right outside. A short walk along the beach takes you to Crystal Cove beach which is perfect for swimming and sunbathing. When we arrived there was a 9pm curfew, but that did not in any way detract from our enjoyment. Overall a great relaxing holiday with no issue.

Magical!
What an amazing experience! Everything exceeded expectations from the start. The owners, a wonderful family, ensured I was settled in comfortably from the first day. The bottle of rum punch, rock cakes, coconut bread, pitcher of cold water and plenty of ice were most welcome gifts and extras to start my stay. Heidi returned at the end of the day to drive me to the supermarket so I could fill the pantry with food. She shared so many ideas of places to see and things to do. Andrew, her husband, was equally engaging and helpful. If I ever needed help Chloe, Heidi and Andrew's daughter, was a text away. Felt spoiled with the immediate attention any of my inquires received. I'm sharing a few highlights. Know that you are gong to are about to have a most magical time. Location and home were ideal. Large two bedroom house, fully equipped with attention to important details. Had laundry detergent available, the kitchen was fully equipped, shampoo and conditioner, lots of hand soap and the list goes on. You walk down 8 steps and maybe 10 strides to arrive at the sea. Paradise my friends! Access to about 1 mile of beach - great for my morning walk. Ocean Hollow is the place for you to stay if you want to immediately start enjoying your time in Barbados and leave your worries behind. The owners, like all Bajans, only want you to enjoy everything the island has to offer. Welcome to Paradise Plus my friends.

A Piece of Paradise
So much better than advertised is all we can say about Ocean Hollow! Stunning beach and sea views serenaded by the rolling waves, this wonderful property did not disappoint. Any questions or concerns we had were dealt with promptly and courteously. Especially during this challenging time, Chloe was invaluable with her recommendations and assistance when we needed it. Situated just off the main road, fully fenced with direct access to the sand and sea, Ocean Hollow is a rare find! It is suitable for couples and small families. Pets are also welcome! We can’t wait to return!

Sea Glass and Sunsets
Ocean Hollow is a beautiful place to stay while visiting Barbados. It is on the west coast just south of Holetown and north of Bridgetown. The house is a large two bedroom, two bathroom with everything we needed for a family of four. The bedrooms are air conditioned for comfort at night and the multiple windows allows for the ocean breeze to flow through the house. My favourite place was the back porch where I enjoyed yoga each morning and a cup of coffee watching the waves of the ocean. The ocean is literally at your back steps. During high tide it is sometimes splashing into the yard. I hope you take a moment to say hi to your neighbour. He is the kindest man and made our stay even more memorable. We enjoyed many a sunset together talking about the island and the world. We took our family to Barbados for over a month to experience the country and live somewhere safer than home at the moment. The experience was invaluable. My partners family is from Barbados and for all of us it was like coming home. The island is beautiful and the people are kind and warm and welcoming. Ask Chloe for the contact of an amazing taxi driver, Ronald. We decided not to drive and used a taxi a couple of times a week instead. He may be a little more expensive than others but he is kind, informative, reliable, punctual and warm. We made a friend for life. Jordons Supermarket is right down the street and I preferred it over Massy but I also cooked a lot of local meals and everything you need for that is there. The fish market was incredible. We ate a lot of seared tuna steaks, flying fish and marlin. The Esso close by to the market had a vegetable vendor, atm, and staples. The best Roth’s can be found next door at The Roti Place. Lovely people too. On your way to the fish market or home, the Crane has a French pastry cart for your morning croissants or dinner baguette. Wendy’s Restaurant and Bar is super close if you cut through Brewsters lot and has great local food and also ribs and chicken and fries. There are huge screens to watch sports and lovely people. Being there through a pandemic is eye opening. The government is well run and incredibly careful and thoughtful. Those of us coming from the Western World do not realize the impact of the reduction of one industry like tourism and how significantly it impacts a whole island. Tourists are needed and encouraged but so is safety, understanding., and respect. Thank you Chloe!

Excellent property and good location
Everything was as described. The property is excellent for 2 couples having 2 large bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. The kitchen has all the essentials needed and the dishwasher, and washing machine and dryer are very useful. There is a large lounge/dining room with comfortable seating. The best place to sit is on the outside terrace watching the waves coming to and fro and the sunset in the evening. The location is good with a regular bus service along the main road, and the bus stop just a few steps away. We walked to the Jordans Supermarket for supplies which is about 10 mins walk. The pavement does not run all the way but it is possible to get off the road when traffic passes. I would thoroughly recommend this property if you are looking for somewhere on the West coast.

Sea lapping at the gate!
Just returned from our second stay in this property. What a location, right on the beach (literally) as the sea comes up to the gate! Value for money you would be hard pushed to get a more idyllic position. Ocean Hollow is a very spacious property with 2 large air conditioned en suite bedrooms, an open plan sitting room/dining area and a kitchen. The beds are very comfortable and the sofas are more comfortable than the ones we have at home! A car isn't essential but we hired one this time and it gave us much more flexibility for eating out and getting to a bigger supermarket. Buses are readily available and cheap but having seen how fast they are driven we decided to give those a miss! Chloe is an excellent host and responds immediately to any contact.

Charming Beach Property
We had a wonderful 10 day stay at Ocean Hollow. The cottage was well appointed and tastefully decorated. The house was set back far enough to avoid any traffic noise. It actually provide a sense of intimacy and privacy. The sunrise and sunset views were priceless. There were sandy, swimmable beaches within a short distance right off the back of the property. The convenience of having washer/dryer was a big plus. We had a few minor maintenance issues that Chloe promptly addressed. Bottom line, this was an excellent bargain for a hidden gem on the platinum west coast of Barbados. Thank you so much for a allowing us to stay.

A little slice of Paradise
This little gem of a house is perfect in so many ways - convenient location for so many reasons; steps away from the beach; the view through the mature mahogany trees (which help to keep it cool on an afternoon) which you never tire from; comfortable furnishings; well equipped kitchen. We wouldn't stay anywhere else on the west coast! Thanks to the super host Chloe who always makes sure we are happy!

It's like being on a desert island!
We have just returned from a 10 night stay and we loved it! The property has 2 big bedrooms with very comfortable beds and pillows and the living area is very spacious too. In addition there is the large veranda with 2 seating areas and barbecue which we used several times. The sea literally laps at the gate of the garden and as you can't see the property to the left when you are on the veranda and there is nothing immediately to the right it really felt like we were on our own little desert island! You do get a few people passing the gate at low tide and, talking of tides, I strongly recommend downloading the tide tables for the area so you know when you can get along the beach as it is a much more pleasant walk than the road! We loved the 2 nearby restaurants Il Tempio (on the beach) and Caribe which were about 10 minutes walk away. By Barbados standards they are not expensive and the food was excellent! The house itself isn't ultra modern but it is extremely good value for the amount being charged and it has a natural charm about it. The kitchen has a good range of gadgets and cookware and we bought food at the local, very well stocked, supermarket Jordan's which is opposite Il Tempio restaurant. The garden itself is well shaded due to the number of trees but the beach to either side of the property is stunning. If I went again I would take a lilo to use on the beach as a lounger! If you get woken up at sunrise by a loud noise on the roof don't panic, it's a visitation from the green monkeys who sometimes appear! One even walked bold as brass across the veranda one afternoon too! Chloe was great before and during our stay providing us with all the information we needed and she and her family were extremely helpful and promptly fixed a problem we had with the air conditioning while we were there. Thank you to all of you.

A delightful cottage
We really enjoyed our stay at Ocean Hollow. The cottage is roomy, well appointed and fully lived up to the description provided. Very comfortable furniture. All facilities worked fine. The washer and dryer were a nice feature. Chloe, the property manager [and her family] were very cooperative and obliging. Bring your snorkel and mask as the coral comes close to the beach here and offers plenty of opportunity to view all kinds of tropical fish. At low tide and with a couple of short detours you can walk the beach for several miles towards Bridgetown. The market at Fitts Village is quite convenient especially for those, like us, with no car. We loved the place and hope to stay there again on a future visit.

A Good Stay in Feb. 2019
We enjoyed our stay @ Ocean Hollow. 2 bedrooms with ensures were great for two couples. Beach patio was a pleasant way to enjoy the evenings after a day swimming or hiking the island. The house is far enough off of and on the water side of the busy roadway. Noise was not an issue. This property is not the lap of luxury but its good, honest accommodation for the price.
