About this property

Blue Haven House (LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION), ‘A Home Away From Home’

Location, Location, Location! Blue Haven House is a Private House strategically located on the South Coast along Highway 7, in a quiet residential neighborhood opposite the infamous Accra Beach (Tiki Bar), and picturesque South Coast Boardwalk, and is within minutes access to ALL amenities including Public Transport, Supermarkets, Post Office, Banks, Doctor’s Office, Pharmacy, Duty Free Shopping, Restaurants, Bars & Night Life. By foot 👣, by bus 🚌, or by car 🚘, approximately 4 miles in a westward direction you will find the Capital City of Bridgetown, however along the way, the renowned Barbados Fertility Clinic can be located (opposite Hastings Rocks on the Southcoast Boardwalk), you can also make a stop at the Garrison Savannah (horse racing track), the Garrison Tunnels (tunnels used during the World Wars), George Washington House (the US President’s accommodation on his visit to Barbados). In the eastward direction, you will find the renowned St Lawrence Gap (hub for dining & night life), Oistins (Oistin’s Fish Fry), Miami Beach, and South Point (Freights Bay surf spot). However, with all these conveniences at hand, it is still highly recommended to view the scenic side of the island and it’s many attractions.
Blue Haven House is fully self-contained and has its' own private entrance and parking, and is the perfect get-away for a family or friends who wish to share a wonderful holiday together on our beautiful island of Barbados. This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom house consists of master bedroom with en suite bathroom. Queen size beds, ceiling fans and air-conditioners in each bedroom. Living and kitchen/dining areas are also cooled by ceiling fans. In house laundry facilities for your convenience. Fully equipped with all you will need for your self-catering holiday, from a coffee maker to help wake you up to a wall-mounted flat screen TV with satellite programming to entertain you after a day at the beach.
The breezy patio for relaxing in the evening with that cold beer or the sun deck to catch up on that sun tan in between your beach trips.
For your convenience, we have provided a Lock Box for Contactless Arrival and Departure as desired, as well as the ability to safely store the key, rather than having to walk with it and be in fear of losing it, while on your many adventures on the island.
For your peace of mind, Blue Haven House has always had as its top priority a clean, comfortable environment for your enjoyment. With this in mind we have always gone above and beyond the standard practices, with the use of appropriate cleaners and disinfectants for each application, including all surfaces, door knobs, light switches and remotes to name a few as well as the sanitizing of all linens, including all towels, blankets, comforters, bedspreads, etc. In order for these thorough cleaning practices to be maintained at the highest standard, we have always provided a minimum of 24 hours between Guests’ Check-In and Check-Out.
We take this opportunity to thank you for your interest in Blue Haven House and to ask that you take the time to read our reviews before making an informed decision on your choice of a Holiday Rental for your next vacation.
Please ask, if you have any queries on accommodations rates or specific requirements or location.

Amazing residence and location!

Carey and Wendy are fabulous people to work with. We've never been to Barbados and weren't sure what to expect. They put our minds at ease from the moment we arrived. They gave us info on things to do and places to eat. The house was extremely clean and was a perfect fit for my family. We were 2 minutes away from an amazing beach!! I highly recommend booking with Carey amd Wendy for your dream vacation.!!

Really great place to stay

We stayed for two weeks at Blue Haven and were very satisfied. Carey and Wendy were great hosts, very friendly and accommodating. We had great conversations with them. Buttons their dog is a gem and very friendly too. This spotless house fit our needs completely. It was modern, with the latest amenities and comfortable furniture. The house patio and garden were all well maintained, and we felt very comfortable and safe there. The location was perfect, in a quiet neighborhood which was five minutes walk from the beach, restaurants, shops, bus/taxis. Definitely our preferred place to stay on our trips to Barbados. Thanks Carey and Wendy. You were awesome.

Great stay

We had a great few days at Wendy and Carey's place. The house is spotlessly clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay - washing machine, dryer, fridge/freezer and gas hob with cooker. The bedrooms have comfortable mattresses and have air conditioning. Rockley beach is a 3 minute walk, with lots of good restaurants a short walk away so you don't really need a car unless you are exploring the island. The hosts live next door should there be any problems but we had a great visit and would happily stay again.

Fantastic property!

Thank you so much Wendy and Carey! My family and I felt so welcomed at your house. Everything was perfect. We love Barbados and visit every year. This property is ideal in location as it's a 3 minute walk to Accra Beach and many great restaurants. I highly recommend booking your stay with Wendy and Carey. We plan to come again soon! Take care.

Beautiful house just the right distance above Accra Beach

Gorgeous, large house beautifully finished with a great front porch for relaxing outside. 3 minute walk to Accra Beach and same to the boardwalk. Carey and Wendy are excellent hosts. This house is super central with all you need in walking distance plus public transit into Bridgetown or along other coastal destinations We are already thinking of returning.

Spacious and clean with every amenity one would wish for in a holiday home.

24 Blue Haven is ideally located for our needs. A short walk to Accra Beach and a nice stroll to Rockley golf club! Local restaurants such as Champers, Mojo and Tapas are walkable and the owners, Wendy and Carey Plant, could not have been more welcoming. We had a lovely, relaxing time and it is a pity we could not have stayed longer.

Cheers

A clean, roomy, well kept guest house in an ideal location on the south coast, just a 3-5 minute walk from Accra Beach with the Hastings Boardwalk adjoining the beach. Convenience stores, beach bars and restaurants, all within "5" minutes walking. Rent a car to get around to other areas of the island. Its close to major highways or you can just drive along the coast. Thanx very much Carey and Wendy, everything was great.

Perfect house a couple of blocks away from Accra Beach

Wendy and her husband were wonderful hosts!! They are always around in case you have questions. This house was perfect for our family - we were 4 adults and two kids. It was very very clean, and organized. The kitchen was fully equipped. They provided beach towels, and they also had a cooler (unfortunately, we did not realized this until the very last day). Each room had a AC unit, very appreciated. The location was perfect, only 5min walk to a beautiful beach, restaurants, and convenience store. If we go back to Barbados, we will totally stay here again! Thank you for a wonderful stay in Barbados!

Blue Haven House and Villa Rentals, 24 Blue Waters, Rockleybeach, Christ Church, Barbados

Stayed at Blue Haven House and Villa rentals for a week in March with my daughter. Our hosts, Carey and Wendy, went over and above any of our expectations to make our stay an amazing one. Our rental unit was extremely clean and had everything we needed in the kitchen to do our own cooking. It was in a perfect location.....a residential area 3 minutes from the beautiful Rockley Beach. Close to restaurants and a small mall. A great place to stay. Should we return we will definitely be staying with Wendy and Carey again.

Perfect Location, Clean and Spacious

My husband and I stayed in both the house and the Villa, while the Villa was perfect for a couple it was nice to move in to the house when my mom joined us. Very spacious, with tall ceilings and big bright windows. The kitchen had everything you need to make meals at home, which was nice to do instead of going out every meal. Couch's were comfortable and they have satellite TV for those days when you've have enough sun. Tons of movie channels for down time as well Bedrooms were great, beds and pillow were very comfortable and nice soft sheets! Everything in the house feels fresh and new, it was spotlessly clean as well! Location was unbeatable. You are tucked back in a quite and safe neighborhood but within 3 min walk you could be on the beach. Also within minutes from several restaurants, convenience store, liquor store, bank machine and shopping The owners Wendy, Carey and Buttons were fantastic. They were unbelievably helpful many times. They live on site and are there to answer any questions you have about the accommodation or Barbados. Look forward to coming back and staying again The owners Wendy, Carey and Buttons

Can't wait to return

Blue Haven House is awesome. Immaculately clean and modern feeling. It has all the latest amenities and the location couldn't be better - it is within walking distance of anything you will need - beaches, fast food, fine dining, convenience store. The area is very quiet and in a nice residential area. There was plenty of room for four adults and could have easily accommodated another couple. This a very comfortable property and the owners on site are so helpful. We will definitely be returning!

Home Away from Home

We've been to Barbados a few times, staying at hotels and guest houses but this time I think we've found the one place that we will always go back to. We like a private and peaceful place where we can cook our own food, that's close to the beach, restaurants and markets. Blue Haven was all of that and more. It's in a quiet residential neighbourhood, in the heart of Oistins, just a few minutes walk from a great beach and very close to popular spots, including St. Lawrence Gap. It was the best of both worlds. The house was clean and modern with high ceilings and lot's of storage space. One could tell that Wendy and Carey paid a lot of attention to detail in designing and maintaining the spacious house, with guests in mind. They were perfect hosts and with their friendly and complementary personalities we quickly became friends. We'll miss their company and delightful conversations over drinks on evenings. Blue Haven is a lot like our own home and was truly a "home away from home" for us!!! We're already planning our next visit and look forward to seeing Wendy, Carey and Buttons again! Thanks a lot guys and see you soon!

Great stay!

The house is clean and modern. It has all of the comforts of home in a safe and quiet residential neighbourhood. The beach, bars and restaurants are all within walking distance. It's a short cab ride to the Gap and Oistins. Carey and Wendy are great hosts, and are next door if you need anything.

House Review

My husband and I stayed in the Villa in July and the house in Nov. We totally enjoyed the house. It was very comfortable close to restaurants, shopping, accura beach, and the kitchen is fully equipped. The best part; the owners are nice, helpful, and know the area well. They helpled us with many aspects of our stay and for that we are grateful. We plan to come back several times next year and already have reservations! Thank you Wendy and Cary!!! Your the best!!!!!

A Little Slice Of Haven

My best friend and I stumbled across this beautiful property on our search for accommodation during our visit to Barbados, and this was the perfect fit. Set in a quiet, residential neighbourhood just a stone's throw away from the beach, we really could not have asked for a nicer place to stay. The beach was literally a few minutes away on foot, so not having transport was no problem at all; restaurants, shopping, and access to local transport service were all within walking distance. The house was spacious and clean with a beautiful garden, air-conditioned bedrooms, fully equipped kitchen and laundry facilities; everything to make our stay that much more comfortable! The owners, Carey and Wendy, were warm, friendly and accommodating, always making sure we had everything we needed to make our stay a memorable one. And their little dog Buttons was an absolute delight! Always eager to greet you with love and kisses! We'd recommend this property to anyone looking to have a truly relaxing and enjoyable time while on vacation in Barbados! 10 out of 10 :)

About the host

Hosted by Carey & Wendy

Host profile image
Carey and my wife Wendy, have been married for over 30 years with one grown son. I am from the South American country of Guyana and Wendy is a born Barbadian. We built Blue Haven in the 1990's, and enjoyed it as a family for many years, due to its' location to all amenities and the beach. Blue Haven Villa was added a few years back, and with the over whelming response, and the many friends, it was the most enjoyable undertaking we had ever done. It was therefore an easy decision to do the upgrades to our Private House and offer that as well, now giving two options for those who are looking to visit the beautiful island of Barbados. ‘A Home Away From Home.’

Why they chose this property

Blue Haven was part and parcel of property passed down through the generations, but its best asset is the location, location, location to all amenities, especially the beach and boardwalk.

What makes this property unique

Centrally located, no need for a vehicle.
