5 bedroom villa

An open modern kitchen opens right out into the garden. It is a cook's delight with 2 fridge freezers, 2 ovens, microwave, dishwasher, wine fridge, butler's pantry and much more. Of course you don't have to do the cooking! Eurice the cook is there to look after you and of course the restaurants and bars in Barbados offer a wide range of wonderful, tasty cuisine in sea front settings.

The cottage is a wonderful original coral stone building. There are fossils in its walls and the bedrooms are large and furnished in calming creams and taupes. The master bedroom in the cottage is particularly romantic with a delightful four poster bed. It is often first choice accommodation for honeymooners.

Villa Melissa is located just a 3 minute stroll from the beach. Access to the beach is down a dreamy leafy beach path. 

This property is inclusive of a  cook, housekeeper/laundress and Ian, the general assistant. Ian will prepare your drinks at the bar and serve your meals.

The large salt water swimming pool at Villa Melissa sits in the middle of picturesque and spacious gardens. This villa is particularly well suited for families.

The pool is divided into two areas by stepping stones. These create a 3 feet shallow end which is ideal for children.

There is ample comfortable seating close by so children may be watched from the water's edge.

On the other side of the stepping stones is a deeper swimming area. This area is 4'6 “ deep throughout. Ideal for those who like to swim lengths.

One of the most popular features of Villa Melissa is the thatched tiki bar fondly known as 'Chubs One Love Bar.' This is located next to the pool and from here you may sit in the shade and enjoy your favourite refreshment. It tends to be the focal point of the garden where guests sit and play backgammon, scrabble and other games. A wonderful place to enjoy an evening cocktail before dinner. Rikki makes a mean rum punch!

Located on the popular West Coast in the parish of St James, Villa Melissa is just a short drive to Holetown. Here you will find a selection of shops, restaurants and bars. If you like a stroll on the beach you will find many luxury hotel resorts just a short walk away.
