Overview
Let yourself truly relax and unwind in luxurious style at Villa Mosaic, a modern and stylish home away from home that is located on the ocean at Reeds Bay on the West Coast of Barbados.
It’s a bright and modern home with colourful touches throughout, starting from the mellow yellow hue that the home is covered in. It follows an undersea theme, with whimsical touches that add to the charm and excitement of this home.
This five bedroom home away from home is spread over two floors, with the bedrooms all on the top level meaning two of the rooms have balconies over the ocean and garden. All of the bedrooms are air-conditioned, with ceiling fans and en suite bathrooms. This floor also offers a small television room, perfect for families with children who want (and need) their own time.
On the ground floor is the open plan living area that opens out onto the covered terrace. The spacious living room offers plenty of cosy seating options, so guests can gather to de-brief over the day, read a book or join together for movie night - BYO popcorn.
The villa has a very large, modern kitchen that is incredibly well-equipped. There is even a chef who prepares three meals a day for guests.
As you wander the halls of this home, looking out onto the ocean, it’s a very special feeling.
Of course, a home that’s located on the beach takes full advantage of the sun, sand and water. Whether you are taking a dip in the plunge pool, sunning yourself on one of the loungers that over looks the ocean or seeking respite from the sun under the covered terrace, you’re relaxing in style.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa MosaicBarbados is a dreamy travel location boasting renowned beaches, stunning sunsets, a rich history and beautiful architecture. It’s a popular travel destination, and with year round sun and an average of 3,000 hours of sun a year, it’s no surprise.
If you’re travelling to Barbados chances are you’ll want to explore countless beaches, spending days exploring the coasts, topping up your tan and seeing the evening come in at one of the beach bars. There are many beautiful beaches to enjoy, from Miami and Rockley Beach to Bottom Bay and Mullins Beach - the latter being one of the lost popular spots in Barbados. Many of the beaches offer sun loungers and have beach bars, so you can spend your days relaxing beachfront.
There is of course more to the island than picture perfect beaches. If you head inland you can explore plantations and cotton fields, or visit the UNESCO-listed town of Bridgetown or take in the stunning architecture in Speightstown.
Of course, no trip to Barbados is complete without sampling some of the islands internationally recognised rum, or their local specialty, flying fish.
This villa is located by Reeds Bay, a beautiful bay near Lower Carlton on the West Coast of Barbados, there are many bars and restaurants within walking distance, as well as a fruit and vegetable shop.

About the Island & Getting There
About Barbados
At first glance you could be mistaken for thinking that Barbados is purely a beach holiday destination, but you're urged to reconsider this common belief. The island of Barbados is peppered with astonishing landscapes (both coastal and inland), enchanting locals, sublime cuisine, intriguing rums, fascinating wildlife, symbolic architecture and a selection of striking holiday villas.
Delve deep into the history of the island and start your holiday by visiting Sunbury Plantation House & Museum. This former plantation was built in 1660's and the premises are scattered with antiquities that delicately detail a recent history of Barbados. St. Nicholas Abbey also provides an insightful representation of Sugarcane production, Bajan artefacts and a wonderful observation point at Cherry Tree Hill. If you’re keen to visit one of the oldest Parliamentary buildings within the Commonwealth and appreciate the democratic legacy of Barbados, drop by The Parliament Buildings. This neo-gothic congress can be found in Bridgetown and act as a representation of Barbados’s Independence. There is so much history present throughout the island and as a result, Bridgetown and its Garrison has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage site, which the locals are very proud of.
Great efforts have been made to persevere the natural beauty of Barbados, so if you’re drawn to the exploration of National Parks and multicoloured gardens, it won’t take you long to realise that Barbados is a haven for such paradises! Within the Andromeda Botanic Gardens, Farley Hill National Park, Flower Forest, Hunte's Gardens and Welchman Hall Gully - visitors, and Botanist alike, will be lost for hours admiring these astonishing botanical parklands. Keep an eye out for the Dwarf Poinciana, or Peacock Flower…it’s the national flower of Barbados.
Bajan’s take their food very seriously! If you and your fellow travellers are enticed by the gastronomic aspect of holidaying, we believe you’ve selected the right island. With every aspect of cookery mastered; from pickling to freshly prepared dishes, sweet & savoury, fragrant & spicy and of course, the bountiful choice of seafood. Check out the food stalls in Paynes Bay Church – where vendors exhibit locally made dishes & street food that will scintillate the taste buds. At the end of every working week, locals and tourists both flock to Oistins, for 'Fish Fry Day'. This is a must for those who haven’t undergone the experience! The evening starts with barbecues and then ascends into a joyful party. This caps off a busy few days of work for locals as well as the 'strains' associated with serious holidaying.
Barbados is of course iconic for its Beaches & Rum…so why not bring them together? You will have to go out of your way not to be able to find a beach bar along the west coast of the island, as well as the countless Rum Shops. Yes, you’ve read correctly, Rum Shops! These small and locally run businesses embrace the Bajan spice of life, in liquid form. Very delicious! If you’re searching for something a little more special, take a trip to the east coast and visit Sand Dunes Bar and Restaurant at Windy Hill, for an unforgettable experience.
Barbados is a distinct and striking part of the Caribbean. It’s a great fit for all types of travellers, as the island really does have it all. For a little more information about this delightful island, check out our guide to a remarkable stay!

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesThis Villa is an incredibly family-friendly home, welcoming children with open arms at this beautiful home away from home. Located right by the beach, children can spend their days building sandcastles and swimming all day. They can also take a dip in the villa’s small private pool.
The Villa offers plenty to keep kids entertained, from day to night. As they make their way inside, likely under duress, they can spend nights watching movies on the television.
Barbados itself is a great place for travelling with children, not only are the locals incredibly friendly and accomodating and there is plenty to do. When it comes to beaches, there’s no shortage on the island, but when travelling with mini-mes it is vital the beaches are family-friendly, Mullins Bay, Bathsheba and Paynes Bay are the most popular beaches for families.
If you are looking for a more unique way to see the oceans, why not head into Bridgetown and board the Atlantis Submarines Barbados, which takes passengers to a coral-encrusted shipwreck to see tropical fish up close - who can find Nemo first? Also in Bridgetown, children (and big kids at heart) can live out their dream of being a pirate aboard the Jolly Roger I, complete with pirate sails, rope swings, planks to walk and BBQ buffet - there’s even swim stops on the way.
With a country that boasts such a rich history, it’s important to immerse the family in as many local experiences as possible, the Oistins Friday Night Fish Fry is a must. Bajans put on a show with their Caribbean dance moves to live reggae, and guests indulge in the island’s specialty, flying fish. You can also visit the Barbados museum, which has an entertaining yet educational kids zone.

We will never forget our time in this gorgeous place
We had a fantastic time on our family vacation at Villa Mosaic. The staff were incredible and made my trip incredibly special. On this trip, my fiance proposed, and I can't think of a better place to start our journey together. We will never forget our time in this gorgeous place. Thank you for shaing your home with us!

Wonderful Barbados Villa
Your villa and staff are just wonderful! We really enjoyed all of the amenities of the house and the beach. Barbadians are very friendly and we will recommend your villa to all our friends and family.
Thanks again for the wonderful hospitality! Until next time.. -
Magnificent
Family vacations are a root of nostalgia which forms a delicate but potent bond with one another. In Greek "Nostalgia" literally means the pain from an old wound - It's a twinge in your heart far more powerful than memory alone.
Our mind is like a time machine. It goes backwards and forwards.. It takes us to a place where we ache to go again. - Which is why this has been a nostalgic vacation for my family and friends.
The home was a magnificent vacation spot - Which was made magical by a wonderful staff that we will also always remember! Thank you for the fond memories.
Don't miss out! Reserve now and get a full refund if you change your mind within 48hrs.
