Clearwater - Gibbs Beach - Barbados

The delightful coral stone villa is furnished with lovely antiques throughout. Clearwater's extensive open-plan dining and living area, designed to capture tropical breezes and provide views of the sea, opens on to a large, covered veranda with bar, where you can also dine or relax overlooking the sparkling Caribbean Sea.

All four bedrooms are air-conditioned as well as having cooling ceiling fans. Upstairs, the large master bedroom features a queen-size bed, en-suite bathroom and a wide picture window with excellent views of the sea and gardens. Downstairs, the second sea-side bedroom, with an expansive view down Gibbs Beach, has twin beds and en-suite bathroom. The remaining two bedrooms overlook the gardens, have twin beds, and share a bathroom.

Spend your days comfortably relaxing on the extensive private beachfront patio, where you can enjoy the company of family and friends in picturesque surroundings. Enjoy a drink in the sun or dine al fresco in the shade of the tamarind tree after you take a quick dip or a swim in the Caribbean Sea, only steps away. Clearwater's conveniently-placed gates provide direct access to the beach, where you can walk on pristine white sands, watch the glorious sunsets, or gaze at the twinkling stars. Rinsing off is easy in the outside shower house.

In addition to the outside patio, Clearwater's gardens provide ample space for children to play. It's a quick drive from the gated semicircular driveway to Speightstown, the nearest shopping area, and to the local fish market. Mullins Beach and the local bus stop are only a short walk away.

Let peaceful Clearwater be your tropical getaway for a week or two... or even longer.
