A Sensational Sojourn

Perched just above the western coastline of Barbados overlooking Alleynes Bay, you will struggle to find a home anywhere in the world with a spot on the map as covetable as this and the living quarters themselves are as spectacular as you would imagine.

It's not just the fact that the design is impeccably luxurious throughout – although it is – but the list of amenities at guests' disposal is quite simply astonishing. The well-equipped gym will help you keep up your fitness routines, while the spa and steam room offer some ways to relax afterwards. We're also smitten by the teppanyaki bar on the upper-floor terrace complete with an ocean view that's truly envy-inducing and if you don't fancy cooking, fear not – the villa has a dedicated team of staff, including a private chef who will prepare three meals a day.

Sticking around outside, the swimming pool in the central courtyard is a thing of beauty and there's no shortage of loungers and daybeds on which to kick back in the sunshine. There's a refined luxury to the garden full of tropical vegetation and a wander about the space will reveal the fact that the beach lies mere footsteps from the home. You'll definitely feel secluded during a stay here, but the bright lights of Holetown are only a short drive away when you're craving civilisation again.
