A wonderful 3 weeks in Barbados
Beautiful property with amazing views and sunsets. Bedrooms are huge with lots of storage which was great. House does need a little TLC in places but that would not stop up from returning to this property. Great location, very quiet, close to Holetown and glorious beaches and restaurants. A couple of minor issues during our stay which were dealt with very promptly by property manager Michael. Wildlife was amazing too with visits from local monkeys. All in all a wonderful 3 weeks at Harpers.

Amazing Christmas and New Year stay at Harpers
This villa is amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here over Christmas and New Year. The property is spacious with massive bedrooms, all en-suite and air-conditioned, as well as a number of indoor and outdoor seating areas/verandahs to suit your mood. There is a wonderful view west towards the sea and we were greeted by a full rainbow on our first morning. The master bedroom balcony is the best for a beer and watching the sun set. The kitchen is very well equipped, and the pool was cleaned twice when we were there. The gardens are beautiful and we saw and heard so much wildlife, including a family of monkeys. The villa was cleaned twice while we were there - thanks to Deborah for looking after us. Minor point to note - hot water can take a few minutes to come through for showers - give it time! Very many thanks to Simon the villa manager who was always contactable. He met us at check-in, recommended places to eat, organised some groceries for when we arrived and allowed us to stay a bit later on check-out day as we had an evening flight. Our first visit to Barbados was truly memorable, and I am sure we will be back.

Sibling and spouses get away
We found the home provided great space together and equal space to spread out. The bedrooms are the only air conditioned areas of the house but could provide pretty good ventilation with a lot of windows and doors opened. The pool was fantastic as well as the many outdoor sitting areas. Great privacy with the house not directly facing any other homes. The monkeys visited often which was always fun to see. The area of Holetown is fairly upscale area with great beaches not too far away. Showering at alternate times was required to ensure we each got hot water. With temperatures in the 30’s for us walking to Holetown was not an option therefore a car was helpful. Overall wonderful stay and should we return to Barbados we would definitely want to stay at Harper’s

Family and friends holiday
We had stayed at the property 8 years prior so knew what to expect and overall we had another great experience. The view from the master bedroom is hard to replicate. My only feedback would be the property it starting to feel a little tired in places but we would highly recommend it to friends

Everything we could have wanted and more
We had an amazing stay, the villa was absolutely perfect and had everything we wanted. Every room has their own bathroom and the Villa is very spacious, with several relaxation areas. Simon the Villa manager is lovely and gave us a thorough tour of the house and told us everything we needed to know. We will definitely be returning! Thanks again for a perfect stay.

Anxiously awaiting the next time
The visit was simply wonderful. Check in process was a breeze. The owner and the property manager were responsive, accommodating and a delight to work with. The rooms were spacious, clean, comfortable and reflective of the pics shown on the listing. Several large sitting areas inside and out to suite the needs of couples or a family. Mornings were glorious with the sounds of nature while the view absolutely stunning. Will definitely be returning as soon as possible. Thanks Lee and Simon!!

A great villa
The property was clean and spacious, with beautiful sea views. Large, comfy beds and well equipped kitchen. House manager Simon did a very comprehensive shop for us prior to our arrival. We did manage to walk to the beach, though you definitely need a car to get around. Lovely quiet neighbourhood, with the occasional cow waking us in the mornings! All in all a wonderful stay in a great value for money villa.

Beautiful
This was a beautiful property, views from the pool were amazing. would have liked to have been closer to bars and restaurants. You can walk into Holetown but a good 30 minutes via the road, Walked back but not recommend as no street lighting and up hill. Would have liked air con in the living area rather than ceiling fans. Saw lots of animals while sitting outside, monkeys, kittens, sheep, huge toads, firefly’s amazing. Had such a fab time but be aware of supermarket prices, very expensive.

Paradise at Harpers
We had a brilliant holiday. Simon was very helpful and communicative throughout our stay. The villa is lovely and in a great location to explore the beaches up and down the west coast, and indeed the whole island. There was some building work going on next to the villa during our stay, so it was a bit noisy at times (as well as a keen gardener out strimming before 8am!), but it didn't detract at all from our holiday experience. We would definitely stay again!

Lovely week at Harpers
We had a great week at Harpers. It is very spacious and airy and the view to the sea was lovely. We enjoyed sitting out on the patios, using different ones at different times to catch the breeze. The private pool was great and well kept. The house was well stocked with equipment and was cleaned mid week. There were plenty of towels for the pool and beach and the air con in the bedrooms was very effective. Simon was very flexible on checkout time as nobody was arriving that day and we appreciated not having to rush in the morning.We loved our time here and would definitely recommend it.

Excellent stay at Harper's Villa
We have just enjoyed a wonderful 2 week stay at Harper's Villa with our family. The villa has a great location and is extremely spacious, clean and well maintained. The bedrooms are all large doubles and the kitchen is well equipped with plenty of stuff. The pool and gardens are superb and we enjoyed many evenings at the two outdoor dining areas. Simon (the villa manager) was very welcoming and couldn't do enough to help us. The communication from both him and the owners has been great. Deborah and the cleaning team were also really friendly and helpful. Overall we have had a wonderful stay and we would definitely recommend for families.

Excellent property , communication & service
We stayed mid January with friends & family. The property is spacious, well kept & has everything you need from a holiday let. Simon the property manager arranged shopping & taxi from the airport, he also arrange our transfers to the port where we picked our cruise up. There are bars & restaurants quite near if you use the shortcut but you can’t do that in heels. Taxi’s are quite reasonable. We had visits from the monkeys in the day which was a joy! Would definitely stay at Harpers again!

Spacious, light and airy very comfortable house
The house is really spacious with several balconies and terraces and a choice of 3 dining areas. The 3 main bedrooms are large with large beds and nice bathrooms. You can be all together or separate out as desired! The view to the sea is lovely, the pool is good (we did our lengths most days) and there are sun loungers and chairs to suit all plus a garden with lime tree and coconut palms and a bbq. We would definitely recommend this villa. The agent Simon was amazingly helpful, very responsive and got us huge family shops as we were not allowed out pre second test results - luckily we were in this place so felt on holiday anyway!

Covid Perfection
We booked this villa back in 2019 in readiness for a special family holiday for a 50th Birthday celebration and we 100% cannot fault the villa - its everything you would wish for - spotlessly clean, well equipped, good Wifi, in a quiet loctaion, with beautiful views and the beds were amazingly comfortable. But what really made the holiday for us given the global situation with Covid and quarantine requirements from Barbados was the planning, reassurance and communication from Simon the property manager - not to mention the huge family sized grocery shop he voluntarily did for us prior to our arrival to see us through our first few days. He managed to turn a stressful situation into an idyllic break away for us and we truly thank him for all his help.

Perfect for a large family
The house was exactly as described but larger and much nicer than it looks in the pictures. Very good-sized bedrooms with a lot of stoarage and recreational space (particularly outdoor lounging areas). Simon was very welcoming and helpful on check-in and check-out and Deborah was great too and had the house looking great even after 4 under 5s running round all day. Great location near Holetown but you do need a car to get round. Although it’s near to the beach (Lonestar) still about a 10-15 walk so much better to drive especially with kids.

Great Stay March 2019
We stayed at Harper's Villa for 9 days with our first visit to Barbados. The house was exactly like the pictures- very clean thanks to the housekeeper Deborah. Simon the property manager was very friendly and helpful. He was there to greet us and give us advice and information.If you needed anything he would respond right away. The house is very close to Holetown just a couple minutes drive to purchase all the things you require.Staying here we would recommend renting a car. The view to the ocean was wonderful and the pool was used daily. We would stay here again.
