Excellent accomodation and location
Beautiful penthouse suite. Gregory was excellent as a host- great communication leading up to the stay, would respond promptly to any questions. The view from the property is stunning. It was such an experience to wake up to the sounds of the waves and to open the shutters to the view of the white sandy beach and calm ocean- picture perfect! A couple of upgrades such as a new bathroom and stronger WiFi inside the property would be good. Location wise, this place is perfect. ZR vans stop right outside the property- it was very easy to get around and everyone is so friendly. In terms of the beach, deck chairs and umbrellas would be set out daily by Nolan and it was our favourite part of the day to recline and watch the sunset. Overall, this felt like a week in paradise. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we will be back!

Perfect beach location
This property is perfect for anyone who wants to stay on beautiful Carlisle Bay. The property has gorgeous view of the bay and is only steps away from the beach. Gregory, the owner, is very friendly and he provides chairs and an umbrella which are set up daily to use which made it very convenient. In the bay you can see sea turtles, all types of fish and even a shipwreck! Would definitely recommend for any couple or family.

The location is the best on the island. The access to the beach with chairs and umbrella, exceptional. There is a bit of street noise to deal with, but not that bad. Greg was very helpful. Would definitely stay again. Thanks

Juwel an der Carlisle Bay
Bei diesem Apartment stimmt einfach alles, die Fotos können die Lage direkt an der Carlisle Bay nur unvollkommen wiedergeben. Die Lage ist direkt am Strand nach Westen auf's Meer hinaus, vom Verkehr an der Bay St. hört man auch Nachts wenig, wenn man die Schlafzimmerfenster geschlossen hat.Die Carlisle Bay ist eine der besten Schnorchelbuchten der Insel, man kann direkt vom Strand aus losschnorcheln, währed draussen die Katamarane der Veranstalter ihre Kunden auskippen.Zum gelassenen Strandaufenthalt tragen auch Liegen und Sonnenschirm bei, die man gratis nutzen kann. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet zur Zubreitung von Frühstück und Abendessen. Es gibt auch einen gut funktionierenden Gasgrill im Garten. Das Bad ist großzügig und gut beleuchtet. Die Kommunikation mit Gregory hat sehr gut funktioniert. Seine freundliche und hilfsbereite Art ist äußerst wohltuend, wenn man gestresst vom Flughafen ankommt.

March madness getaway
I recently spent a week here with my son and Daughter (visiting my oldest daughter who goes to Ross Medical school in Barbados). What a view! Postcard pictures right out your living room window each day. Host was excellent and was very easy to talk to. We loved having beach chairs each day literally right outside our bedroom door. It’s a very short walk so you can grab food or use the bathroom and still be very close to your beach spot.. The beach to Savvy’s which was a nice place to grab drinks and food. Snorkeling is literally at your doorstep. The house was great and the bedrooms were very nice with air conditioning. I would stay here again without hesitation. Great host, great house, beautiful views. I’m highly recommend!

Amazing views, beautiful location
We really enjoyed our stay at the Brick House. Greg was really friendly and gave us a thorough check-in on arrival. The condo was well equipped for the things we needed, very comfortable living space and much appreciated A/C in the bedroom for us North Americans not used to the heat. Having on site access to the beach was such a treat, Carlisle Bay is beautiful. We enjoyed many walks and runs on the beach, snorkeling to the ship wrecks right from our shore, swims with the turtles and time with our feet up on the beach chairs provided. The location was great for getting out to see some things in the neighboring towns and around the island, walks into Bridgetown for the market and sight seeing but not right in the midst of where it gets really busy. My favorite part of staying here was being able to get up in the morning and enjoy a coffee and breakfast while looking out at the ocean and listening to the waves.

Paradise
**We stayed in the top suite of the Building, if it's available during the time you are looking I 100% encourage you to book it.** Gregory is the most considerate, helpful and kind host! The morning we left he messaged us to check with us to anticipate the coverage we would have when we landed. He then waited up well past midnight to make sure we arrived safely and to give us our keys and show us our bungalow. For the duration of our stay he was exceptionally helpful with tips about locations to check out, gave us advice about staying safe and where to shop for groceries and more. We truly enjoyed having conversations with him about his experience on the island. The space is perfectly located next to the most insanely perfect beach that you could spend your entire vacation on and it would be the best vacation of your life. The snorkeling is not typical in anyway, the fish are plentiful and turtles frequently just off shore. But the shipwrecks are an experience I hope everyone can enjoy. They were magnificent. We spent every evening watching the sunset from the open living room and loved having a fully functioning kitchen with everything you'd have at home. Book your vacation now and my advice would be to extend it by a few days you will not regret it.

Beautiful apartment, great beach, perfect for swimming and snorkelling, beach is very busy at the weekend, quiet and peaceful during the week. Good restaurants at south coast (Tapas, Champers). Very nice and helpful host Gregory. We had a wonderful time.

Amazing stay
This condo is amazing. Right from the moment you walk in the door the view hits you and you cannot believe it. From the pictures on the listing we knew it would be great, but it is so much better than the pictures. We have rented many places over the years but this is one of the nicest places we have stayed. The location is on Carlyle Bay and we snorkelled with turtles, manta rays and so many beautiful fish. Gregory the owner was fantastic. He was so friendly and had great recommendations on what to do and see in Barbados. Nolan who helps out on the beach was so upbeat all of the time. We feel so blessed to have met them both. The master bedroom is huge with a king size bed. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need. We would like to say thank you to Gregory for being a fantastic host and we cannot wait to return.

fabulous location
View, view and did I mention view. Location is great as well. If you are coming to relax and enjoy the beach this is it. You can go snorkeling 100 feet from your door step. Nolan our beach helper was great. Helpful hits, make sure you make reservations for dinning in advance. We would highly recommend Champers. We would not recommend Fish pot. Oistins for fry night fish fry is fun and the fish is delicious. Friday night is fun but Oistins is open every night for dinner and highly recommended.

Excellent Stay
Excellent location, with fantastic view! Third story of renovated house on Carlisle Bay. Property manager has everything well established and looked after. The house directions upon arrival were many, and a little overwhelming when having just arrived and being tired/jet legged, but property manager checked in with us the next day and we were able to clarify. A cheat sheet or laminated sheet outlining everything would also be very helpful.

Geniale Unterkunft für Beach-Urlaub
Wir (Eltern + 2 Jugendliche) hatten einen traumhaften Urlaub auf Barbados. Die Insel an sich ist natürlich schon ein erstklassiges Ziel in der Karibik. Das Appartement und insbesondere auch der aufmerksame, sehr nette und superhilfsbereite Service von Jens, dem Vermieter, hat das ganze noch getoppt. Die Kombination aus allen hat uns einen unvergeßlichen Urlaub beschert. Das Appartement war sehr gut ausgestattet und dessen Ausblick hat uns stets in den Bann gezogen - solange bis wir zum direkt davorliegenden Strand inkl. Liegen und Sonnenschirm gegangen sind. Der Strand ist beliebt und belebt - auch wegen der Meeresfauna (Schildkröten, Stachelrochen, etc.) - aber nie überfüllt. Wer einen Strandurlaub auf Barbados abseits der Hotelszenerie mit Selbstversorgung sucht, ist bei diesem Angebot bestens aufgehoben.

Great location
My wife and I enjoyed our stay in the Penthouse Suite at the Brick house. The view from the living room/kitchen is just like the picture on website. The kitchen had everything we needed. All rooms were clean and comfortable. The beach was a short walk outside . We enjoyed swimming and relaxing in the lounge chairs provided on the beach. It is a particularly beautiful stretch of beach and not crowded. We choose not rent a car and got around by walking and using the ZR vans ( it is only 2 BBD per person). There are many good restaurants easily reached from the Brick house. The owner, Jens, was on site during our stay . He was very helpful with any questions and offered assistance as needed. We hope to return to the Brick House next year.

This is a great place to stay...
The beach here is the reason we've been coming to Carlisle Bay on cruise stops for a few years. We decided we just had to stay ON the beach for longer than one day. Jens' Penthouse Suite is perfect for that. It takes about a minute to get to the greatest sand I've ever seen with calm, clear water to go along with it. There is a large umbrella with loungers just like you see at the beach bars for your use. The beach is just over one mile long from the rocks? by Bridgetown to the Radisson pier. You couldn't ask for a more gracious host. Jens as always ready with suggestions and set us up with a taxi driver to take us for an island tour. The penthouse was very clean, tidy and had everything we needed once we added our groceries. There was air conditioning in the bedrooms which we found we didn't really need. You can walk out the front door and get on a ZR van for $2 Barbadian and get anywhere from Oistins to Speightstown. A lot within walking distance, too. It isn't really a touristy area but takes only minutes to get to one. Being so close to the road you hear some road noise but after the first night I didn't really notice it anymore. We would love to come back and would not hesitate for a second to recommend it to anyone else. Two things; pay close attention to the instructions for the safe. They are very clear but you need to actually read them. And don't try vaulting the gate... :)

Perfect location great apartment
Lovely apartment that had everything I needed for a great stay just a few steps from a perfect beach . The plus point for this apartment is if you bring a snorkel and mask with you and you walk out on to the beach swim a short distance straight out you are guaranteed to see turtles every day as that’s where all the big catamaran tour boats moor up for them yet it still retains a sense of peacefulness as the beach never seems to be busy !! A very breezy clean open apartment with a fantastic view of the beach through the palms . Jens set everything up for us with informative emails etc before we arrived and Zico helped us with anything we needed whilst there . Ample parking spaces a few steps from the property a bit of traffic noise but everything I needed in the kitchen altogether so I was happy and I would definitely stay there again 😌

Excellent Location, Fabulous Accommodation & Great Management
My wife and I enjoyed a week at this location in early December 2016. We rented the Penthouse Suite and it is everything it promises to be and more. The "more" being the service that the is provided by the owner manager! We chose this location as we wanted to be close to the start of the Barbados Marathon. You couldn't get closer than this, as the event takes place on the Esplanade which is just next door to this vacation rental. Yet, the soundproofing of this building is so good that you wouldn't know that a sporting event is taking place just outside of your accommodations! The pictures provided with this property are exactly as portrayed. As are all of the extra's that are mentioned; the umbrellas, the BBQ, the deck chairs. Upon arrival, there was also a bottle of wine waiting for us to enjoy which was most appreciated. Both of the bedrooms are air conditioned, the floors are all nicely tiled and the best area of all is the huge open air terrace. (The air conditioning is nice to have but we found we didn't really use it a lot as the air here is so nice.) The furnishings are all modern and very up to date. There is a safe in the room, Bluetooth accessories and a big screen TV....not that we used these that much either as we were always at the beach or out seeing the sights. Also, power is available for both North American and European travelers which I find is a very nice feature. Shopping and eating out are just short walks and/or bus rides away. There is really no need for a car when you stay here. Besides, the short walk out your door and to the beach is where you'll probably be spending most of your time. The beach here is tremendous and it truly is where all of the snorkel tour companies come to look for turtles. The water was always calm, clear, completely safe and yes, there were turtles present. We will certainly return here the next time we come to Barbados! Thank you for a wonderful place to stay!
