Spacious, gated, quiet, open-plan with garden, pool, 2 ensuite bedrooms

Could not have asked for better accommodation. Everything was provided including beach chairs, parasols and cool boxes. We had the time of our lives and can't wait to go back next year. The accommodation was exceptionally clean and well maintained and furnished. Also in a great location.

We have just returned and have been absolutely delighted with our stay here. Beautifully furnished, comfortable and spacious. Everything was there that we needed and more. Lynda is a star. We felt looked after from day one, she genuinely wants to make your stay the best it can be. We hired a car at the airport and found the villa with no issues, even in the dark. Five minutes drive to quiet beaches, supermarkets and restaurants. Exceptional property and host. We will definitely be back.

Loved this place, everything about it was delightful. Clean, well decorated, comfortable, good location, well stocked and exactly as described. Especially enjoyed the cooling pool and the air conditioning.

We spent 30 days in Emerald Woods in January. Lovely home tucked away in a great quiet location away from the hustle of the busy south and west coasts, yet close to many of the beautiful places Barbados has to offer. Being our first time in Barbados, to explore and fully appreciate the island we rented a car, but many places you might wish to visit are accessible by local transport. Now, perhaps because of the time of year, we arrived (Jan 4th) to a very dirty home in great need of maintenance and repairs. The spare bedroom and bathroom were filthy. Dust bunnies the size of large cotton balls. Toilet and bathtub and tiles filthy. Probably not used so not cleaned in months. The floors through the entire home were not even swept, never mind washed. Thick layer of dust /dirt on everything. The home is in desperate need of maintenance and repairs. Kitchen sink and bathtub were not draining upon our arrival. We got it to work but the problem kept coming back. The spare room en-suite toilet needs a new fill valve. The current one is corroded and beyond repair. Water runs all the time. Couple of Kitchen cabinet doors about to fall off as hinges are broken. Dishwasher floods the kitchen if used. Ant hills in every kitchen cabinet as the kitchen cabinets have not been cleaned inside for a while. Bathroom Towel rack falling off the wall. The grass was not cut for the entire month we were there and ended up over 2 feet high. The home needs to be treated for ants. We communicated with the owner who was very quick to respond and acknowledge our concerns but did very little to correct the problems, at least while we were there. We can appreciate and understand the challenges of being an absentee landlord and perhaps all the issues we experienced during our stay are one off , but we do feel that any guests coming after us should be aware of these issues, and make sure that’s all of these problems have been addressed, if they are important to you and play a role in your decision to rent the home. We cleaned the place on our arrival and several times during our stay. And despite the disappointment in the state we found the home in and the fact that we had to wash all dishes by hand on our vacation, we ended up really enjoying our stay.
