Description


Welcome to Bonavista, a truly luxurious 4-bedroom beachfront villa located on the wonderful, calm waters of Gibbs Beach on the West Coast of Barbados.

Bonavista is a stunning beachfront retreat nestled along a tranquil stretch of powdery white sand on Barbados’ celebrated West Coast. As you arrive at this exquisite holiday home, a paved courtyard framed by vibrant Caribbean greenery sets a warm and inviting tone. An arched entranceway offers the first glimpse of breathtaking sea views, perfectly framing the sparkling turquoise waters of the Caribbean.

Passing through the hallway, subtle nautical accents hint at the villa’s Caribbean charm. Stone turtle footstools line your path, guiding your eyes toward the dazzling sea and the serene pool area. A striking iron anchor, nestled amidst lush tropical foliage, adds a touch of whimsy to Bonavista’s breezy, sophisticated ambiance.

The villa boasts thoughtful design elements, including a Roman-style fountain tucked into an alcove and a cozy, dimly lit nook perfect for quiet reflection. The drawing room exudes elegance with rich mahogany furniture, antique Oriental rugs, and vintage mirrors. Indoors and outdoors blend seamlessly as the living spaces open onto a covered terrace, outfitted with a full dining setup, a recessed service counter, and a wet bar for entertaining.

Step outside to find an inviting swimming pool surrounded by a sun-soaked deck, offering unobstructed views of the Caribbean Sea. The soothing trade winds create the ideal setting for unwinding in paradise.

Upstairs, Bonavista’s four air-conditioned bedrooms offer ultimate comfort, each featuring its own en-suite bathroom. Awaken to panoramic views of the Caribbean as the sun rises, and let its golden hues lull you into relaxation at day’s end. A spacious family room on the upper level, complete with modern entertainment options, opens onto a private balcony where you can soak in the picturesque pool and ocean views.

Bonavista strikes a perfect balance between secluded luxury and modern convenience. Whether you’re lounging in the villa’s serene surroundings or exploring nearby attractions, every moment feels tailored to your enjoyment. From world-class shopping and premier golf courses to the villa’s direct access to a pristine beach, this property offers an unforgettable Barbados experience.

Please note: Beach access may vary seasonally due to natural shifts in the shoreline.

The surrounding Speightstown area offers a mix of cultural and coastal delights. Indulge in fresh, flavorful cuisine at The Fish Pot, relax on the unspoiled sands of Heywoods Beach, or soak in the laid-back atmosphere of local bars as the rhythms of the Caribbean set the mood. Bonavista is more than a luxury vacation home—it’s a gateway to Barbados's unmatched beauty and charm.

Your assistance and guidance in planning and preparing for the trip was truly exceptional. Our favorite part of the trip was probably the wonderful beach house and amazing location on Gibbs Beach. The staff of Janet, Claudia, Fabian and Rhonda were wonderful and we completely enjoyed all of the Bajan people we met. What a warm, friendly and welcoming people and island.

Thank you Janet, Claudia and Fabian for treating us so kindly during our week here at Bonavista. We loved the villa, pool and beach as well as all of the kind people we met from here on the beach. We wish we could stay longer. We will be back for sure!!

We have just gotten back from our trip to Barbados and the Bonavista. We had a wonderful time. It was just perfect. My son and his wife had the twins in the large bedroom upstairs (the only room with a TV). The TV kept the boys quiet until it was a decent time for the rest of the family to get up. It was so special to have the whole family together. The weather could not have been any better. The twins had a ball playing in the pool and then going to the beach to dig in the sand. Their swimming improved so much that we were able to take them out on the boat excursion to feed the turtles. We found a boat that was significantly less expensive called Barbados Blue. No lunch was served but we did not need or want that with the boys. The people that worked at the house Janet, Claudia and Fabian were so pleasant and helpful. The gardener kept the villa in tip top shape. We rented two paddle boards which worked out very well. All in all it was an "exceptional" vacation and we thank you so much. We have recommended it to several of our friends already.
