Location
About the surrounding area of Atlantic Beach HouseIf you’re looking for an idyllic getaway, there’s few better places than the vibrant, picturesque Caribbean island of Barbados. A country renowned for its stunning beaches, crystal clear oceans and welcoming climate. Stretching just 21 miles, there’s no reason not to explore all of what Barbados has to offer, from shimmering oceans of the West Coast to the UNESCO-listed old part of the vibrant capital, Bridgetown.
Barbados embraces the slower pace of life, and it’s not hard to relax when the weather is lovely all year round. It averages over 3,000 hours of sunshine each year, and it is treated to prevailing northeast trade winds that create a light breeze, so it’s rarely unbearably hot.
Once you’ve visited all the stunning beaches on offer, make sure to head inland to the plantations that share a unique and telling story of the island’s history. Of course, you must also try the island’s internationally recognised rum and local specialty - flying fish.
This villa is located on the West Coast, near Gibbes Bay. With some of the most beautiful and popular beaches and beach clubs at your fingertips - there’s nothing you will be left wanting. This villa is just 2-kilometres from Speightstown, one of the island’s major towns that has a rich, long history and plenty of character. The town, which is also known as Little Bristol, is the second major town in Barbados and is also one of the busiest ports.

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 AgesTravelling with children is a humbling experience as you get to see new places through their eyes, with pure excitement, curiosity and pleasure. Barbados is an incredibly family-friendly destination because there is something for everyone to do and see.
This Villa is a family-friendly home away from home, offering the essentials that make life that bit easier at home while also added elements of luxury and excitement, like a swimming pool and the ocean at the edge of the garden..
Barbados itself offers plenty for children, with many family-friendly beach that offers golden sand for sandcastle building and safe crystal clear waters for snorkelling and swimming. The most popular beaches for families include Mullins Bay, Bathsheba and Paynes Bay, all of which have plenty of space for lazing by the sea and a spot of sports, as well as safe oceans and some even offer useful amenities such as change rooms, cafes and restaurants.
Of course, the ocean is a drawcard to this location and if you want to take on the seas slightly differently, 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? 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.
If you want to fully immerse the children in the island’s history, why not visit one of the plantation houses inland, or visit the Barbados Museum that boasts and educational and entertaining children’s zone. You should also take the family along to Oistins Friday Night Fish Fry. Bajans put on a show with their Caribbean dance moves to live reggae, and guests indulge in the island’s specialty, flying fish

Wonderful villa in the perfect location
We loved our stay at Atlantic Beach House. The house was lovely and comfortable and after touring the whole island, we decided that the location couldn’t be better. The private beach was not crowded or rocky and was free of seaweed. If we wanted more action. We could easily walk up to Mullins Beach for water sports. The cook and housekeeper were a special treat and we felt spoiled by them.

Luxurious retreat in a beautiful home
My family and I enjoyed immensely our vacation in Atlantic Beach House on one of the most beautiful beaches in Barbados. The swimming is so desirable and the snorkeling so much fun. The staff pampered us in every way possible so that relaxation was wonderful. The private garden area with furniture and chaise lounges created a terrific atmosphere. There is also a hammock for reading or looking out to the sea. The rooms are spacious and plenty of seating for all of our guests.

So enjoyable
