A Lovely Stay

I really enjoyed my vacation to Barbados. The condo is just 2 blocks to the beach and the terrace opens to the pool. Loved the well appointed apartment that had a beach chair, umbrella and plenty of towels. Easy check in process and the apartment was clean with plenty of dishes. My only suggestion is instructions for using the electric stove. Only issue was a mirror in the ebedroom that dropped while I was in the bathroom. A bit of a shock and mess but these things happen. Overall a very pleasant stay and highly recommend. Great spot to unwind and relax with fun in the sun !

Gold star for Golden View

Karen and Chris were friendly, helpful and full of excellent information in advance of our stay. Anita, their housekeeper, was charming and efficient. The condo was very well equipped indeed and was spacious, clean and tidy. We had a little trouble with the door lock, but Anita came straightaway to see what the problem was, and got a locksmith to put a new lock on as soon as possible. The pool and garden of the condo building were beautifully maintained, with plenty of sunbeds, and there was a large parking area. It was good to have the aircon in the bedroom, but it did prove a little difficult to source the coins to use! I would have preferred aircon in the living area too, but I do appreciate that might be difficult to achieve. The condo is in an ideal spot - a lovely quiet residential area, but just minutes from shops and restaurants of all prices. We would definitely stay here again and will recommend to others.

10 Day winter sun break

Lovely property in an excellent location, the hosts were really friendly & helpful with directions and local area info. The condo was very well equipped with everything you could want from beach furniture & snorkel to packed lunch boxes and cool box (trolley). The kitchen had every utensil, pot and pan if you wanted to cook and unlike many holiday lets they were in nice condition. The condo has a nice community feel and the pool was well maintained and cleaned daily if you fancied a break from the beach. There was also access to a beach club area 5 min walk or 10 min stroll down the hill. The Sandy Lane golf club is just the other side of the road and ideal for a scenic walk or run in the morning before it gats too hot! Overall a great place for an uncomplicated holiday in the sun, highly recommended

Well Chilled !

We had a super time in Barbados and the apartment was a big part of that. The apartment manager met us and explained how everything worked and also showed us how to maximise the airflow through the apartment to keep it cool. That tip was so good that we did not need to use the air con at all. Being ground floor it was great to be able to wander into the garden from the terrace area, rather than have to take the stairs or lift. The apartment was just what we wanted so it suited us perfectly. It was also in a great location within easy reach of Hometown's bars and restaurants. We took your advice about some of the restaurants and bars to use. We did Just Grillin' as you suggested for our first night and also tried the food truck at Paynes Bay Fish Market - the fish cutters were excellent. The Fishermans pub in Speightstown was good for a cold drink. We also used Cafe Carizma in the Chattel Village and the Mews on 2nd street as well as Surfside on the beach - great for the sunsets. All in all it was an excellent holiday and great apartment - so we were well chilled by the end of it.

Home from home in paradise

This was our second stay at this excellent apartment and hopefully won't be our last. We have stayed in 4 apartments in Goldenview and this is our favourite. This is a perfect place to experience Barbados, not only is the apartment refurbished as we would have our own place, it is set in lovely secure grounds not far from the beach and all that Holetown has to offer. The hosts were great communicating with us especially around the covid challenges we all face at the moment. Thanks Chris and Karen

Golden View

We have just returned from our stay at Chris and Karen's apartment at Golden View and had a great holiday. Golden View is set about a 10min walk back from the central seafront at Holetown. Which for us was ideal as it is away from the busy coastal road. Beaches are good all along this part of the coast. The apartments are privately owned and so the site in generally kept in very good condition. The gardens are lovely and very quiet and peaceful. The pool is great for a cooling dip. The on site restaurant is a Chinese which you can dine in or get a takeaway. They also do a poolside bar service. We tried it once and the food was OK. The apartment itself is very clean and tidy and well stocked with everything you might need from a holiday rental. Being a ground floor unit and just across the grass to the pool was great. Chris and Karen were very helpful with the booking process and quickly responded to any questions we had. Overall a great apartment in a great location. We would definitely go back again. Thank you so much Chris and Karen.

Delightful apartment

As we have stayed in Golden View, but not this apartment, we knew the system. However if we had been new guests, we would have been at a loss as we had no contact with a property manager. There is plenty of written instructions but naturally certain things are better explained face to face, i.e. TV, air conditioning, security etc. The apartment has been renovated to a high standard. The kitchen/sitting room is beautiful. The patio is like an extra room with the dining room table . All the crockery etc is to a very high standard and plenty of it. Thank you, a delightful holiday.

Fabulous apartment in the perfect location.

The whole process of renting this apartment was very easy even when we had some personal problems which meant we had to move our travel dates, Karen was very accommodating in making sure we were happy with the changes. When we arrived at the apartment it was immaculate! It had everything needed to make our stay a home from home experience. We would not hesitate in recommending this apartment and if we had to score it out of 10 we would give it a 10!

Lovely property in a sunny location

The property is absolutely wonderful. It is just as described in the listing, but far bigger than expected and better equipped than most properties we have stayed in. The location couldn’t be better, just a short stroll to the beach and all amenities, bars, restaurants, shops etc. The apartment has one of the best locations on the complex, a step into the beautifully maintained gardens and only yards from the pool side. The spacious terrace gets the afternoon sun and pool side you can sit in the sun all day long. We particularly loved the evenings, sitting on the terrace gazing across the pool and people watching in the restaurant opposite the apartment. But don’t worry the restaurant is very quiet with no loud music to disturb the blissful Barbados evenings. We couldn’t fault the communication with Karen; it was first class from start to finish. Our only recommendation would be to put the name on the Condominium on the listing as Golden View isn’t mentioned and it may confuse some people when trying to find the property. All in all it was a fantastic holiday in a first class property which is a credit to the owners. We definitely aim to return and just hope that the apartment is free. Patrick and Ceri - UK

Awesome Property!!!

We had a great week long stay at this property in Barbados! We loved that it was on the ground floor and just a walk out to a large swimming pool which we took advantage of EVERY morning. Make sure you bring Barbados dollar coins if you want any extra air conditioning, the hosts left us some to get started, where we used an hour to get the bedroom cooled down before bedding down. They also left us a couple of Banks beers which went down very nicely after a long flight and tracking down the location initially. Parking our rental car was a breeze as the parking lot was quite empty. the property is very close to a big supermarket where you can get whatever you need. The communication with the host, Karen was way above what we expected and helped us out a lot. This was our first VRBO experience and it was exceptional!! Doug & Trina

About the host

Hosted by Christopher Griffith and Karen Prinz Griffith

Host profile image
We are a couple both working in the hospitality industry so we strive to give our guests the same experience we would expect on vacation. Karen, was born in Canada while Chris was born in Barbados. We currently reside in Canada but spend time at our home in Barbados whenever we can.

Why they chose this property

This is our home and we absolutely love it! Chris grew up in Barbados and Karen has traveled there with her parents since she was a small child. Some of my, karen's, fondest childhood memories are of playing on the beach just at the bottom of our street, with my cousins, watching as one or all of us tried to get up on water skis, not always very successfully and later racing one another on jet skis. We are all a little older now but it is still always great when we can experience Barbados and ALL that it offers!

What makes this property unique

The proximity of the condo to the Sunset Crest Beach Club and the lovely events it holds throughout the season offers an opportunity to participate in the community and its residents and have some fun at the same time. Situated on the beautiful west coast, where one can enjoy the best sunset views on the island, there are many restaurants and bars to do just that! But if you prefer a more private, quiet place to enjoy on your own or with your loved one that too is available in abundance. The sea from the west coast is also the most amazing, gorgeous water to swim in and to explore at your leisure. There are so many beaches to choose from, whether you want to hang out or snorkel or walk or just swim the choices are many!! The shopping in our neighbourhood is unparalleled on the island. A short walking distance away is the Limegrove shopping center, it boasts some amazing high end shops as well as the Lime Bar at its center which hosts nights of music and fun. Limegrove holds the only movie theater on the west coast. On the rooftop of the complex is a restaurant with a fantastic menu and great ambience!
There are also many Chattel house boutiques in the area, showcasing the designs of local and imported talent. All of this is within walking distance of the condo.
