About this house rental


'Shutters' is a traditionally designed house on the famous west coast of Barbados. Within 5 minutes walk of the quiet but stunning Reeds Bay (see photo), 'Shutters' has the added advantage of a private pool (18' x 12') and garden. All the rooms are spacious and airy with fitted mosquito frames (no glass windows) but the house comes with all bedrooms being fully air-conditioned for those who prefer the cold!

'Shutters' is in the village of Lower Carlton which is between Holetown to the south, and Speightstown to the north. Consequently it is within easy reach of all the fabulous bars and restaurants the west (Platinum) coast has to offer. Lower Carlton itself is a quiet, sleepy village but the Carlton Variety Store (3-4 mins walk from Shutters) offers amazing rum punch, beers and general chatting most nights with fantastic grilled fish on Thurs, Friday and Saturdays, and the famous John Moore Bar is a 8 or 10 mins walk from the house, and there are several nice little eateries within 10 minutes walk. Lower Carlton has a fishmarket which sells the most delicious (and cheap) fish, and a fruit and veg stall which sells local produce. There is also a small mini-mart. For additional shopping Bridgetown, Holetown and Speightstown are a quick bus ride away.

There are a wide variety of activities available up and down the west coast, and the wild surfing water of the east coast is about 40 minutes drive away. The house is 40 minutes from the airport.

'Shutters' is tastefully furnished and comfortable. The housekeeper will clean the house and change the bed linen and towels twice a week. The garden and pool are tended to weekly.
Inclusive in the rental fee is the Mandatory Shared Levy Fee which paid onto the Barbados revenue Authority at 10%

We had a really amazing stay at Shutters. The location is in a residential area with really nice neighbours and an easy walk to the beach, and a great fish market. It was an easy ride to the Massey in Holetown for groceries. The backyard of the home is a lovely oasis, and the kitchen was super well equipped which is not a given for a rental. The large table outside was the perfect spot for meals and games. Communication with the host was exceptionally good as we faced plane delays and had questions. A terrific choice, we were so pleased.

Great house in an incredible location. It has everything you need and is extremely well appointed. We were so sad to leave! Simply wonderful.

Shutters is a great house with plenty of space. Located within walking distance of a very nice beach and a short drive to several others. Also plenty of shops and restaurants within a short driving distance. I would definitely recommend having a car when renting Shutters and getting acquainted with the very nice neighbors. With the exception of a couple of appliances needing a little updating, it is a great place!
