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.

Another fantastic trip
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.

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.

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.

Tropical Garden Paradise
My husband and I loved staying in this sweet cottage surrounded by a beautiful tropical garden. So peaceful. We were there for seven days and wish we could have stayed much longer. It felt like we had our own private retreat. The location is great. A 10 minute walk to the gorgeous Gibbs Beach and then about 10 minutes in the other direction to Adrian’s Corner beach bar on Mullins Beach for rum punch and music. Many thanks to Sam our host for a wonderful stay. We hope to return again soon.

Lovely holiday
What a meditative, peaceful break! I travelled here on my own at the tail end of a family holiday gathering and found it the perfect retreat and respite. The garden is stunning, the simple cottage comfortable and attractive. Wendy is helpful and kind; Sam is the perfect hostess.

We had a terrific time at Warawee. Across the road from the beach but set back enough to avoid any noise, the gardens were idyllic, the pool lovely, and the house comfortable and safe. Wendy the housekeeper was extremely helpful. We had a wonderful stay and would gladly return.

Wonderful stay in Warawee!
Enjoyed an excellent 2 week stay close to Mullins and Gibbes beach on Barbados west coast. The villa had just about all we needed for our stay including wonderful care and attention by Janetta and Wendy. Speightstown 8-10 mins by bus or 20 mins pleasant fast walk. Excellent communication by Sam before and during our stay. Would recommend!

Pre Christmas Trip
Warawee was the perfect place for a relaxing getaway. The cottage was comfortable and well equipped. The garden is stunning, a wonderful place to sit and relax and watching the hummingbirds was a real treat. The pool was a very welcome way of cooling down. It was a short walk to both Gibbs and Mullins beach. Gibbs was our favourite - very quiet and beautiful. I'd recommend a walk round to Reeds beach and lunch or sundowner at the Real Jamaican Jerk bar. The Sea Shed on Mullins beach is fabulous too. Sam was very helpful before we headed out to Barbados and Wendy was great while we were there. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay - we thoroughly recommend it and hope to go back one day. We really recommend Bike Caribbean - a great way to explore the island. We did a 3 hour ride on the East Coast, hilly but stunning scenery and views.

A wonderful place to stay
We were fortunate to travel with the resumption of Manchester flights and after 2 years away delighted to return to Barbados. We wanted a restful and relaxing holiday and this accommodation helped us achieve that. Communication with the owner was excellent both before and during our stay. The cottage is set in the most wonderful grounds and it was blissful to sit under the pergola early morning or early evening, watching the wildlife, in particular the hummingbirds that come very close. The cottage had everything required for a complete self catering holiday. The bed was very comfortable, and the air conditioning in the bedroom made sleeping easy. Husband was very pleased with the sports channels available on the TV. The pool was a godsend on hotter days to cool off. The housekeeper Wendy was a diamond, very helpful, we loved her beautiful flower displays. The location of the cottage is ideal, just a short safe walk to Gibbs beach, yet close to a main road for travelling by car or bus to Holetown or Speightstown. We highly recommend this cottage, it completely met our expectations, it is excellent value for money, has everything we need in a holiday rental and we hope to return.

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.
