About the home

You can be comfortable here - put your feet up, relax and enjoy the sunshine. Of course, you can spend your days on the beach or touring the island, and your evenings sampling the goodies in the local restaurants, or maybe throwing your very own 'catch of the day' on the bbq at home, and just chillin'. Either way, there's something for everybody and every pocket, from The Cliff or Sandy Lane's restaurants, to going local at a rum shop or a roadside vendor!

Lush tropical gardens surround the property where humming birds and geckos are busy all day long and tree frogs 'sing' you to sleep at night. Enjoy the starlit skies with palm trees swaying gently in the balmy breezes of the Caribbean.

So - you can relax by day and party by night, or just 'chilll' on your own veranda with a nice botle of wine, or sit in the garden under the stars and contemplate life!

Holetown Beach

The St James Parish region

Beaches galore, 17 miles of "platinum" coast with sandy beaches, waters sports, beach chairs and umbrellas available in parts, some peaceful beaches and some livlier ones, some restaurants concentrated in and around Holetown, and some dotted along the coastline. There are two main shopping towns - a historic one at Speightstown, and a more modern one at Holetown. All the beaches are open to the public, and can be accessed along the coast road by foot, bus or taxi, depending on which one is your particular preference. The weather is almost always good, so pack light.
Tennis courts with equipment for hire are in Holetown and there are two famous golf courses in the area - Sandy Lane and Royal Westmoreland. Horses are also available for hire for beach riding, and there are several riding schools a drive away.
There are plenty of interesting tours and excursions - go with the organized ones, or rent a car and "do it yourself".
