Seawards was the perfect place to stay for our first visit to Barbados. It is right on a beautiful beach so it took us six steps to have our chairs on the sand! The rear yard is a gem - the table right by the ocean was the perfect spot for morning coffee and evening wine to watch the sunsets!

The villa is specious and was spotless thanks to Dawn stopping by every day - she helped to make our stay comfortable and easy on me (I am usually the one doing the chores on vacation!). She was a joy!

Barbados is a beautiful island and we took a tour to different parts almost every morning to explore. Then back to Seawards for beach time, maybe a nap and then dinner out. The restaurants that we loved the most are all within a 10-20 minute drive from the villa. One we even walked to!

You can walk to a little grocery store or drive for five minutes to the bigger one - Massy's.

When we return to Barbados, we will definitely see if Seawards is available!!!

Barbados was awesome and our stay at Seawards was amazing. Caysha and Dawn were excellent. We already miss them. You made things super easy for us. Thanks so much!

Good location, friendly staff. Great weather. Very happy with the house.

First of all, we thought we were "settling" because this was our last choice. Thankfully, once we arrive we were pleasantly surprised! The pictures make Seawards look a bit outdated, but it is a very lovely property inside and out! The upper balcony is kind of small for the two bedrooms to share, but we actually spent little time there. We stayed on the patio most of the time that we weren't on the beach! Very nice.

We have just returned from a trip to Barabados. This was our third time on the island but our first time staying at Seawards. The property was extremely spacious, well maintained and kept clean and tidy by the housekeeper, Dawn. It was perfect for accessing nearby supermarkets and restaurants which was great although we mainly took advantage of Annette's culinary skills as these were excellent and much cheaper than eating out. We were a little concerned by a previous review which complained about traffic noise but despite the house being on the main coast road we didn't find this a problem at all. We were much more interested in the sound of the sea lapping on the beach right outside the back of the house. This was definitely our best trip so far to the island and we would consider booking the house again if all the family were joining us on our next trip.

My husband and our 2 teenage sons and I spent 9 days at Seawards in March 2017. We loved this place. The villa is very clean, well-maintained, and very well managed and staffed. We have rented villas elsewhere in the Caribbean and in Mexico. Some of the places we have stayed have been larger (travelling with another family), or newer, or more luxurious, but Seawards was right up there with all of them, or better.

The housekeeper, Dawn, and cook, Annette, are professional and kind. We would sit down with Annette every few days to discuss meals then we would just buy groceries up the road. Generally speaking she would prepare a huge breakfast, and some dinners, while we opted to eat out for lunch but we liked being "home" in the evenings after a tiring day of fun. Her chicken curries were delicious as was her macaroni pie.

The agent, Chris, and local agent, Barbara, were excellent to deal with. Barbara and I communicated through What's App to inform her of our delayed arrival time and matters such as that. There was a small issue with the main door needing to be repaired (which we hadn't even noticed) which Barbara addressed immediately. We hired a car at the airport and found it very easy to get around this way, after adjusting to driving on the left (we're Canadian).

Although the plunge pool is small, we found it very refreshing and adequate. I have to say I wouldn't have rented here without it, as we like a property with both beachfront and a pool, so it was a wise addition. Perhaps if my kids were younger I would have preferred a larger pool as that was the main focus when they were little.

The beach was great for snorkelling and reading and watching sunsets. The coral on entering the water is rough on your feet so bring water shoes or sandals you can swim in. We had forgotten ours but purchased some in Holetown at a place that I cannot remember the name of, but it was beside the Cave Shepherd.

The a/c worked very well in the bedrooms. We didn't need it elsewhere. We were approached by a guy offering boat tours etc on our first day, but Barbara can help with anything you might want to book. We ended up just booking things ourselves since we hadn't set out with a plan.

I did a few loads of laundry in the kitchen which was very convenient (I was told Dawn could do this but I prefer to do our own). The icemaker was well used - great to be able to drink the tap water in Barbados.

So, I recommend Seawards without hesitation! Thanks!
