Step Into Blue

The pool at this beachfront villa on the western shore isn't huge, but just step through the gate and you'll be right on the white sandy beach itself. Who needs a big pool when you have the Caribbean Sea anyway? Set back from the coast road, this home is pretty and welcoming, with tasteful decor and a laid-back coastal vibe. Vaulted ceilings and ceiling fans give it a traditional look but everything is sparkling new, from the sleek bathrooms to the huge expanse of bi-folding doors that open the first-floor living area to the seaview balcony at the rear. A dining area on the ground floor opens to the home's enclosed private yard, with its pretty plunge pool and loungers, but it's what lies just steps away that draws guests here. After a day enjoying the beach and the pool, your convenient location means it's just a five-minute drive into Speightstown for beachfront restaurants or ten minutes to buzzing Holetown. And as if you needed more convincing, this villa comes with a housekeeper/chef, who will prepare two consecutive meals per day for your group.

Home truths:
*The housekeeper/chef will prepare two meals per day for you but they must be consecutive
*Well suited to families, one of the bedrooms has twin beds
*There are a few wooden steps down to the beach from your backyard
