About this villa rental


IMPORTANT NOTICE: Contact owner for accurate pricing during Peak holiday periods when there is NO additional charge for extra guests due to a higher minimum nightly rate.

Peak holiday times:
Christmas/New Year, February Half term and Easter holidays.

The Old Sugar House is welcoming and bright with a vibrant, open-hearted, homey ambiance. The large common area of living room, bar and dining areas become a sociable central zone, spilling out onto the patio and pool. It is available to rent from 3 bedrooms up to 6 bedrooms and is fully staffed with private Chef, Butler and Housekeeper 6 days weekly at no extra charge. Pricing depends on amount of bedrooms required/number of guests in party. In off peak periods the minimum rate is £1200 per night (throughout 2026) for the use of 3 x bedrooms/up to 6 guests. There is then an additional £110 per person per night for additional guests requiring more bedrooms. The villa can accommodate 12 guests as the Media room converts into a sixth bedroom (with Twin beds only) and has AC, ceiling fan, wardrobes and an en suite shower/wc. Good wifi throughout the property.

There has been substantial upgrading and modernising of the en suite bathrooms and to the furnishings throughout.

There are two very large Master bedroom suites which have Super King size beds, double sinks in the en suite bathrooms, separate wc, dressing rooms, AC, ceiling fans, and private patio/deck leading from french windows with fantastic views of the west coast which can be enjoyed whilst relaxing in comfortable lounge beds. Flat screen TVs in each master suite are concealed in armoires.

The remaining bedrooms can be made up as King size or Twin rooms (Media room or sixth bedroom can only be a Twin). All have En suite shower rooms, ample wardrobe storage for clothing, AC and ceiling fans.

It is important to note that there are 4 bedrooms in the main house to the East of the property, 2 on the ground floor right next to each other and 2 on the upper floor right next to each other. The fifth bedroom is located to the West of the property (other end of the living deck) and is not suitable for children/teenagers under 14 yrs when travelling in a family group unless sharing with another older teenager or adult. Likewise, the Media room or sixth bedroom although nearer to the other bedrooms, is a little distance away and is suitable for adults or older teenagers. It is only recommended for younger children if sharing with an adult or teenager but not for young children by themselves.

Built on the site of an old sugar storage barn this villa is the perfect choice for relaxed, outdoor Caribbean living at its best. Elegant yet informal, it is deceptively spacious with sweeping views towards the ocean on west coast . The decor throughout is very tasteful with a soothing, neutral palette, creating a totally laid-back environment in the most idyllic, tropical setting. A gentle breeze materialises most days, sending its cooling touch throughout the interior and exterior space

Three large, comfortable sofas and four great swivel chairs are arranged on the covered living deck for relaxing anytime of day. There is a strategically placed bar with fridge, sink and bar stools which is a fun, social area if a short break from the hot sun is needed during the day. This is also a great meeting place for drinks and nibbles in the evening before dining around a beautiful, locally crafted Coral stone table which seats 14 people and up to 16 people if needed.

The open plan living deck and dining areas lead onto the swimming pool deck which has ample sun loungers, tables and umbrellas. The incredible panoramic views of the west coast are clearly visible from just about everywhere inside and outside the property.

The library is well stocked with easy holiday reading, board games, playing cards and a basket of wooden cars and various toys for young children. This is a very useful area for students who may need some quiet time to complete assignments or if one needs to make a private business call. Both AC & ceiling fan in the library.

A short 3 minute drive takes you to the famous Mullins Beach and the gorgeous beaches in Speightstown are just another 3 minute drive north, with Thunder Bay and Alleyne’s Bay approx 5 minutes and 8 minutes drive respectively to the South, although it may be difficult to pull yourself away from the breeze-swept pool and outdoor Jacuzzi where many an ice cold local Deputy lager and delicious sun-downer cocktail have been enjoyed. Holetown is about a 15 minute drive away where endless great restaurants and bars are located, also the supermarket for restocking food and beverages. Tranquility and convenience are on your doorstep.

The three exceptional staff of private chef, butler and housekeeper make sure everyone has a truly relaxing holiday. They will greet you on arrival, offer helpful tips on where to go, book restaurants for you, organize transport if required and generally ensure you have everything you need. Chef will help plan menus and can cater for special dietary requirements. Our butler will keep everyone hydrated with delicious cocktails and the housekeeper sees to items of guests personal laundry as well as ensuring all rooms and en suite facilities are thoroughly cleaned and fresh linens provided regularly.

It is impossible not to fall in love with The Old Sugar House where guests experience the beauty of Barbados and make amazing holiday memories to last a lifetime.

We had a fabulous time in Barbados and this Villa was a big reason why our stay was so enjoyable. There were 12 adults and the outdoor space, pool, gardens and seating was incredible. Never did we feel like we were in top of each other. There is so much space to spread out, and also to gather when you want to play cards or just chat. The rooms are beautiful, beds very comfortable. If you are all adults there is one room where the beds are separated but our friends still found it comfy. The staff were fantastic and gave us lots of good advice and tips on where to visit. Sue the host was so attentive from day I booked, helping us rent cars and transport from airport, recommending catamaran vendors etc. We loved our stay and would definitely recommend this Villa and would love to come back!

Our family of 12 recently had the pleasure of vacationing here and loved every single thing about it. The villa, pool, and grounds are gorgeous and the sunsets absolutely spectacular. The villa is well designed with an abundance of covered areas to socialize and beautiful views to enjoy from wherever you are. There are two different eating areas where our large group gathered and enjoyed delicious meals prepared by Chef Terry and served by our butler Omar. Everyone on the staff team was so wonderful. They were very kind and personable and we enjoyed interacting with them throughout our stay. Omar made amazing Pina Coladas and rum punches which we loved. Communication with the lovely owner was excellent and we really appreciated how she went out of her way to ensure that things were well equipped for our four young little ones and we were all well taken care of. We have only been home a few days and our adult children cannot stop talking about how amazing this vacation here was! Thank you so much for this vacation of a life time!
