Wonderful

The apartment is an excellent location, only a 5 minute walk to the shops, bars, restaurants & beach.There were always plenty of loungers around the pool (though parasols might be useful in the heat!) & the communal gardens were nice & well maintained.The apartment was perfect & had all the amenities we needed for a week away.We would fully recommend!
We had a lovely time revisiting Barbados. Heather was a very responsive host and check in was easy. The apartment was very clean and had all the basics. It was homely. The air conditioning (1 BBD for 2 hrs) wasn’t very effective but once we found out the ceiling fan had a faster speed we slept OK and didn’t need it. A breeze blows through as it is on the top floor. There is a great short cut to the supermarket so it takes under 10 mins walk and the beach club only 15 mins walk. The pool at Golden View was always very clean.

Dated apartment
Apartment was very dated and could do with a coat of paint, also with far to much furniture in the space for the the size of Apartment.
We had a wonderful time in Barbados. From the time of booking the owner was very helpful and friendly. She answered all of my questions promptly. The arrival process was also very easy. The agent was there to greet us and helped us get settled in. The apartment has anything you may need. The views from the fourth floor are fantastic. We saw monkeys in the gardens almost every day. We did not need the air con as there was always a nice breeze. We felt very safe at Golden View and and were able to walk into Holetown in minutes. All in all the perfect vacation. Thank you Heather for sharing your wonderful place with us. Hope to return soon. Mariam
Comfortable apartment in good location at Holetown.
The apartment is very well equipped and comfortable for both short and long stays. Less than 10 mins walk to the beach, restaurants, local supermarket etc. Beautiful, well kept gardens and pool. Temporary membership of the beach club is very useful too. Great communications from Heather (the owner) and Jan who lives on site. Would highly recommend.
The property even though part of a very large complex it was very quite and a soothing environment for all ages. I think it would work well for honeymooners.
Heather's place was a great getaway with everything we needed for a fantastic stay in Barbados. The apartment is well furnished with modern furnishing, the internet was fast and reliable and the checkin process was easy. Dealing with Heather was a breeze!
Although you have to pay for the AC, we found this not to be a problem at all as we rarely used it due to the great breeze that flows through the space and the tinted windows on the front.
All in all, 5 stars!
Thanks again!

Fab apartment
Just got back from a fabulous 2 week stay in this apartment, Heather was a dream to deal with she answered all of my questions(even when she was on holiday herself). Cy the manager was a star making sure we were settled in and also offering to take us shopping. The apartment itself had everything you could possibly need and everything was perfect for us, we loved sitting on the balcony at night relaxing. The complex is quiet but that suited us down to the ground everybody we met was friendly. When we visit the West Coast again there is no doubt we will be trying to book this apartment. Thanks for letting us use your beautiful apartment Heather.

Tranquil and idylic.
My husband is from B'dos and we have stayed at Golden View many times over the last 28 years. This was the first time we had stayed in this particular apartment which had been recommended by my sister. The apartment is excellent value for money, well equipped and benefits from large opening between kitchen and living area. Being on the third floor offer's an excellent view and additional benefits for a cooling breeze. It is quiet, comfortable and will book to stay here again on our next visit to the Island.

GOOD POSITION AND WELL EQUIPPED
The apartment is near some of the most beautiful beaches of the Island (even if we suggest to rent a car for having a look on the Whole Island). To reach the beach it takes about 10 minutes walking and about 5 to the small village and supermarket). Nice garden with swimming pool and Chinese restaurant. Well equipped kitchen and balcony having nice view. No night- life. Perfect for old people or a family with kids. .

About the host
Hosted by Heather Haddon
We are a married couple in our late 60s. I am a retired teacher and my husband is a semi retired chartered accountant.
Why they chose this property
We bought the apartment for 2 reasons - to have somewhere to stay when visiting our grandchildren in Barbados and for the convenience of the situation. We are near all the amenities in one of the main holiday areas but in a quiet position.Everything you need is within walking distance. The gardens are great, being cool and shady and the pool is big enough for real swimming. As the apartments are only one bedroomed, the block tends to attract couples and is quite peaceful and alot of the apartments are not rented out ensuring that it is never very busy.
What makes this property unique
We particularly chose our apartment as it is on the top floor( with 2 lifts) and it has views over the trees to the sea and it catches all the through breezes making a/c usually unnecessary. In December 2009, the kitchen was refitted with new cabinets, fridge/ freezer and cooker. We have also knocked a wall down to make it more open plan which makes it cooler for cooking. The bathroom was modernised in May 2016 and now has a walk in shower. We have cable tv and wifi in the apartment. Our apartment renters are temporary members of the beach House for the duration of their stay . This includes a pool restaurant and beach access
