Overview
If you’re going to do something, you may as well do it right, right on the water that is. This Villa is no only beachfront, but due to its placement it looks like you are on the ocean. And while you’re not quite floating, within a few steps from your front porch you can be on the sandy beaches of Mullins Beach and paddling in the crystal-clear oceans.
This villa can accommodate six guests and it is the perfect getaway for people seeking solitude at a calm, modern home away from home. The decor is reflective of the beachside location, with soft blues and greens complementing fresh white walls and white-washed light wooden beams. As you wander through the home fresh air breezes in the large, open windows and it’s hard to look out a window and not be greeted by the vast, lucious ocean.
Each bedroom in this home has its own en-suite, because this is a luxurious home away from home where every need is met. The master bedroom is set upstairs, in a beautiful a-frame room and bathroom with an exceptional view that seems to go on forever.
Everything about this home is very modern and airy, but no more so than the large living room that has double doors opening onto the balcony and, of course, another stunning view of the ocean. If you ever get bored looking out on the great blue sea, the villa offers cable television and a DVD player so you can enjoy movie night.
The kitchen is another spacious, modern room with everything you need to prepare a stunning meal complete with local delicacies. There are other useful amenities in the house, such as a security system and a safe to keep everything well protected.
Needless to say, the home takes full advantage of its location and the many large windows and patios offer optimal enjoyment of the ocean views. Meals can be enjoyed on the dining patio, while the waves crash and the sun sets.
Casa Turquoise can rented alongside its sister beach home, Villa Mahi Mahi. Please enquire for further details.

Location
About the surrounding area of Casa TurquoiseBarbados is one of the most stunning locations to visit, from the crystal clear waters to the candyfloss sunsets that bless the guests - what more could you want from a holiday? Days spend lounging on one of the many stunning beaches that Barbados is renowned for, and evenings spend listening to live reggae music while enjoying delicious local fish, it really is bliss.
As if that wasn’t enough, Barbados is an ideal place to visit anytime, with a warm and sunny climate 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.
This villa is located at Mullins Beach, one of the most popular beach spots in Barbados due to its stunning scenery - really, if you are visiting Barbados this is the place to be. With a stunning beach, a bustling beach bar and plenty of amenities along the beach, you won’t want for much - if anything. It’s incredibly close to Speightstown, also known as Little Bristol, is the second largest town centre of Barbados. It is also just 12 miles north of the capital city of Bridgetown, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, meaning you are close to many, many entertaining day trips, restaurant and, of course, more beaches.

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 AgesChildren are welcomed with open arms at this beautiful home away from home, after all, what child would not want to stay in a villa right on the beach ... building sandcastles and swimming all day? Ok. Situated right on the waters edge, this villa is as close to the beach as you can get. There’s plenty to keep kids entertained, and rested, nights can be spent watching movies on the television and accompanying DVD player.
Barbados is a great place for travelling with children, the locals are incredibly friendly and accomodating and there is plenty to do - from safe, crystal clear beaches to wildlife parks and unique local experiences. 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 something a little more unique, 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.
If you want 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

Ontop of the beach!
Casa Turquoise is a beautifully furnished, fully updated beach house with plenty of comfortable outdoor areas to enjoy the Bajan weather. The house has great sun exposure all day long. You can snorkel right off the deck gate which fronts on a nice reef area. The location on Mullins beach is in very close proximity to the Mullins Beach bar and it's wide assortment of water sports and activities (pro's and cons - depending on your interests!). The house staff are so pleasant and will cater to your every need and request.
