About this property

Delightful garden villa, realistically priced, 3mins to Gibbs or Mullins beaches

Warawee villa is well designed, airy and set in over half an acre of beautiful tropical manicured gardens. The pool situated near main house is available when house is unoccupied usually May to end of October. This delightful villa is secure, tastefully furnished and comprises one bedroom with vaulted ceiling, shower room, separate fully fitted kitchen and lounge-diner. It has it's own landscape garden and private terrace surrounded by hibiscus, ginger lilies and bougainvillea. A wood gazebo with table and chairs for you to enjoy alfresco dinning and sun beds for topping up the tan. There are ceiling fans throughout, Air conditioning in the bedroom, satellite TV, with sports channels/package, WiFi and secure parking. The walk to both beaches is level and takes 3-4 mins. The housekeeper is on site between 08.30 and 13.00 Monday to Saturday. Wendy has been with us for 25 years. She is utterly trust worthy and a fountain of local knowledge; so if you have any queries about the bus or shops, just ask. We can arrange for a taxi to collect you from the airport and food items in the fridge for your first 24 hrs. Just email us a list. Wendy cleans the villa twice weekly, linen and beach towels are changed. Wendy meets and welcomes all guests on arrival, shows them around and demonstrates access and lighting. Her time is adjusted to suit your flight arrival,

Our 3rd stay at Warrawee cottage which I think sums up our feelings. We have already booked for next year. Great location close to Gibbs and mullins beach. Good WiFi. Everything you need. A home from home. Wendy did a great job looking after us and keeping everything clean and ship shape. See you next year. Happy happy

Our 5th trip to this lovely cottage and still special. A great place to stay with everything you need, including humming birds buzzing about. Opposite best beaches in Barbados, in my opinion, and very easy access to multiple restaurants, bars and locations.

Beautiful 1 bed cottage
Sam’s place is a British 1 bed cottage in the grounds of her property. Ideal for a couple. It is tranquil and walking distance to the beaches. Cottage is fully equipped for all you need if you want tea eat in and also has portable sunbed chairs To take to the beach. Highly recommend for a quote stay in Brasil Barbardos

Wonderful stay
What a wonderful garden villa, in the most amazing gardens with the perfect hosts including Wendy, a wonderful housekeeper. It has all you need for a truly relaxing break, Gibbs beach is awesome and Mullins beach bar is the perfect end to a long lazy day on the beach with the nicest staff. We couldn't recommend it enough and the local knowledge imparted by the owners on where and when makes it so much more special and personal.

2 weeks at Warawee in November / December 2024
3rd time at the cottage, it just gets better, Brilliant place for 2 adults in a perfect location. Totally private and quiet. Good location for anywhere on the west coast by bus or explore the island by car easily from here. Gibbes beach still undergoing repairs after hurricane Beryl but should be back to normal soon, in our opinion this is one of the best beaches on the island and only 5 minutes walk, Mullins beach also 5 minutes walk. A really beautiful garden to relax in if you don't want to go anywhere. The main electric gates with code entrance provide security and piece of mind. Wonderful Wendy is on hand most mornings to look after your every need.

Another lovely stay
The peacefulness and tranquility of the gardens and cottage bring us back. We spent most of our time outside under the covered patio enjoying all that Warawee offers. Thank you to Wendy and Sam for looking after us. We had some lovely chats with Sam the owner who knows so much about Barbados past and present. As always Wendy took care of the cottage and us so well.

2nd visit, another fantastic week
It feels a privilege to sit in this stunning tropical garden and watch the hummingbird busying itself on the flowers - our second visit to Warawee was just as lovely as the first. The cottage is ideal for a relaxed visit and is well furnished and very comfortable, has easy access to the beach and is a short distance from several restaurants. The marine reserve at Folkestone is fantastic for snorkling and the coral looked in very good condition this year. Wendy, once again, made us welcome and looked after us extremely well. Thank you.

Paradise
This is the most beautiful place we have ever stayed. The setting is superior to any five star hotel. The house itself is very well equipped and comfortable with a lovely shady seating area overlooking the lush garden. Humming birds in abundance! It’s just a short walk to two beautiful beaches and a lovely beach bar/restaurant. Regular buses pass the end of the drive. Wendy the housekeeper looked after us very well and can answer any queries you may have. Sam, the owner, is the loveliest lady. She is most thoughtful and kind and it was a joy to meet her. We have already recommended the property to family and when we return we wouldn’t dream of staying anywhere else. Thank you Sam for sharing your beautiful property.

Pleasant, affordble, peaceful and attractive property
We greatly enjoyed our stay at Warawee. The property is in the northwest, about half an hour north of the capital Bridgetown, with good access to the west coast beaches, but far enough from the bustle of Holetown and points farther south to be quiet and peaceful. The house itself was comfortable and suited our needs. The air-conditioning and fans worked well to keep things cool, the bed was comfortable, and the covered patio in the garden was a nice place to relax in the evening before or after dinner. The amenities (kitchen, bathroom, beach stuff) were modest but reasonable, and although the hot water in the shower was inconsistent, the consistently warm temperatures of Barbados made this a nonissue for us. Aside from the above, everything was terrific and easy, and the cottage and its location continued to grow on us over the course of our stay. There are some terrific restaurants within walking distance of Warawee (Sea Shed and Grandene's), and don't miss La Cabane farther down the coast. Overall this is a very pleasant place to stay and an excellent value.

Peaceful and relaxing vacation
The cottage is set in lovely, lush, thoughtfully planned gardens. We enjoyed sitting under the gazebo watching all the birds especially the hummingbirds. The cottage is very comfortable, well laid out, and spacious. We were well looked after by Wendy and had some lovely chats with her. Looking forward to our next visit.

Perfect location
We have just completed our 4th visit to Warawee and I am convinced it is the best location in Barbados. A quiet beautiful garden to relax with privacy but completely accessible to beaches, restaurants, bars and all Barbados has to offer. The cottage is perfect for 2 and you are always well looked after by Wendy. Thank you.

About the host

Hosted by Sam Brooke - Moyes

Host profile image
We had been visiting Barbados since 1980 and built Warawee in 1993. The small villa was completed in 2000 with parents in mind who spent winters here. Both houses have a traditional feel and look, but European standards. Being keen gardeners we developed this at the same time and it has become a lovely oasis.
We retired from business and in our 60's we divided our time between Barbados and a home West Sussex.
Barbados to us is England in the sun. Since my husband passed away I have maintained Warawee and regard this very much home. My time continues to be divided between Barbados, UK and world travel. Warawee is to relax and recover.
