About this property

Beachside Apartment #1 - steps from the beach!

Beachside Apt 1 is half of a small duplex, furnished in a contemporary, casual style and is an ideal base for singles or a couple looking to explore the island.
It has a well-equipped kitchen, living/dining space, separate bedroom with a/c, shower room (note that the shower is the only place where there's running hot water). enclosed patio and small outdoor seating area.
The apartment is conveniently located just steps from a tranquil beach and a few minutes drive (or bus ride) from a wide variety of shops, restaurants and other facilities. Be aware that, although the apartment is just steps from the beach, it is also close to the main coast road, which does mean easy access to public transport but it also means traffic noise. Most guests have said that it wasn't an issue for them because they were out and about during the day but if you like to sleep in, or are planning to work remotely during your stay, this is probably not the best place for you.
Also, there is reef in front of the property, which is fine for snorkeling but for swimming you will have to walk about 50 metres down the beach to your left or 100 metres up the beach to your right (in front of Crystal Cove hotel - this is an all-inclusive hotel so, unfortunately, you won't be able to buy drinks etc).

Rare beachside location!
Property is a good locatiion, clean and well equipt, but right on roadside, so noisy in rush hours. Didnt stop me sleeping well though. Easy to catch buses and a walk to supermarket. Best bit is watching the sunset right near the apartment.

Very convenient and easily accessible to buses and the grocery store. Right by the great beach. It can be loud at night because of the busy road so something to consider if you're looking for a quieter place.

Lovely Retreat
Nice place to get away from it all. Close to the beach, village, grocery store, food and bar and has everything you need. Only downside is that it is so close to the road, and the road is loud... but that also makes it easy to get around. Thank you for the wonderful place to stay

Wonderful BeachSide stay
I wanted a place on the beach that I could also hop on a bus and go anywhere. BeachSide did not disappoint. I enjoyed it so much, I added 5 more days to my stay. And will definitely stay here next time. Perfect spot if ya just want to stay the day around the vrbo and walk around. Eat, drink, swim spots around. Or you can hop on a bus and get to anywhere on the island. Took 30 minutes to travel to Speightstown then to Bathsheba Bay. Owners were responsive and friendly. Place was spotless when I showed up. Witnessed them cleaning the other 2 places for 8 hours! I enjoyed the fact they took pride in the place. Loved this place.

Perfect for me!
Check in was great! Karen met me and gave me the tour. The place was perfect for me. Area is super safe. Super market, coconut water seller, local restaurants, and QP Bistro/The Cliff all under 10 mins walk. Bus into town super easy (20 mins). Quietest beach ever!!!! Walk less than 1 min to a swimming area and see the clearest water. As per description, being on the main road, it is noisy. Use earplugs plus you get used to it because staying here is so worth it. The apartment had everything you needed!!!!!!!! Thanks Karen for my time there.

We want to come back again!
Karen was the perfect hostess, easy to reach and very attentive without being overbearing. The apartment was on the road, but we didn't mind at all. Just part of the Barbados experience!! Kitchen was well-equipped, bed was comfy. Was nice to have a covered porch to sit on too. I would give it 15 out of ten.

Wer keine Probleme mit dem Lärm der "gelben Busse" hat ist hier genau richtig!
Sehr sauberes, gut ausgestattetes und gut zum Strand gelegenes Appartment. Unkomplizierter und direkter Kontakt zum Vermieter. Einziges Problem: Eine stark befahrene Straße führt direkt am Appartment vorbei und vor allem die um Mitfahrer werbenden "gelben Busse" machen einen gehörigen Lärm - Tag und Nacht!

perfect location
The property was mere steps from the beach, it was a perfect size for two people and excellently equipped. The property was spotlessly clean and the host, Karen was lovely, nothing was too much trouble for her. Won't hesitate to use any of their property's again in the future.
