The turquoise shallows of the Caribbean lap at bone-white sand just beyond the terrace of this Bajan hideaway. A set of steps lead from the back garden to the soft sand of Gibbes Beach, and sea views can be seen from bedroom balconies and terraces. Float in the lagoon pool to the sound of waves and dine under the gazebo as white yachts cut across the horizon before you. The house itself is designed, plantation-style, by architect Larry Warren and makes the most of Barbados’ balmy climate. The living and dining room has a wall of arched doorways, opening up to an ocean view wrap-around terrace furnished with rocking chairs, coffee tables and sun loungers. The classy kitchen is a chef’s dream with its huge range-style cooker, wall-sized fridge and walk-in pantry, though a private chef is available to cook all your meals if you wish. Sunsets here are legendary, and with a dedicated bar between the kitchen and living room, there’s no better place for a sundowner.
Home truths: *The home is between Gibbes Beach and popular Mullins Beach, which can get busy in peak season, but there is lush greenery around the garden for privacy
*A security guard is on duty 12 hours a day
* The house is staffed with a housekeeper, laundress and chef
