Windfall Barbados

Experience the height of luxury on the glistening Bajan coastline. Located in a secure gated community just a stone’s throw from the beach, golf courses and nearby shopping and dining, this elegant and fully-staffed holiday home oozes sophistication. No expense has been spared in ensuring your holiday is the ultimate in comfort and relaxation. The welcoming and friendly staff will be on hand to cater to your every whim, you will want for nothing for the duration of your stay. Except, maybe another cocktail?
The brilliant white of the villa’s façade contrasts beautifully with the vibrant lawns and surrounding gardens, and the sparkling turquoise sea beyond. Outside you’ll find al fresco dining to seat ten guests, under a gazebo should you prefer to dine in the shade, tucking into delicious fare prepared on the barbecue by the villa’s own chef. The manicured lawn is perfect for the little ones to run around and play, and you’ll be able to keep a safe eye on them from the sun loungers at the foot of the palm trees.
The elegant pool area could have been snatched from the glossy pages of a magazine. Built in the centre of the villa – a courtyard if you will – you can opt to swim in the open air or in the shade, courtesy of a fully retractable canopy. The poolside is lined with sun loungers and indulgent outdoor seating, with candles, plants, pebbles and soft lighting helping to curate an irresistible ambiance.
From the pool, move through to the first communal living space, furnished with formal sofas perfect for drinks before dinner and one of two indoor dining areas. The restorative greens of the plants dotted around the house work beautifully alongside a palette of calming natural tones; whitewashed walls, delectably high ceilings and pale marble flooring making for a serene mood throughout the air-conditioned villa. A second dining room benefits from a glamorous round table, the ideal spot for animated meals together should the weather turn a little cooler. The kitchen is top of the range, decked out in glossy monochrome and fully equipped with everything from a breakfast bar for the kids, a wine fridge and espresso machine for the grownups, and an ice maker – for everyone feeling sun-kissed.
Five en-suite bedrooms offer accommodation akin to sleeping on a cloud for ten inevitably well-rested guests. There are two master bedrooms. The first benefits from soft golden accents and a sofa overlooking the balcony, a standalone bath, his and hers sinks and a huge waterfall shower. In the second master pastel blues replace the golden hues, here the shower built into the sumptuous bathtub. The third king size bedroom is furnished with a dressing table in the corner and huge double doors that open out onto the lawn. The next bedroom is queen size, a cosy room with metallic accents and bright white walls. Finally, there’s a twin room, perfect for the kids with delicate olive drapes on the wall and botanical prints that brighten the space.
Finally, there are two further communal spaces upstairs for entertaining. There’s the media room, the perfect spot to curl up with a good book, enjoy your favourite record on the Sonos sound system, catch a late-night film, or maybe get stuck into a fiery board game. Finally, there’s the cocktail lounge. Arguably – though it’s hard to choose – this could be Windfall’s piece de resistance, so eye-wateringly stunning is the vista of the Caribbean sunset.
Barbados is an extraordinary holiday destination for a family, group of friends and couples.
Being situated along the West Coast, you are certainly privileged to be within a quick drive of many of the island’s best beaches. These beaches are better suited for leisure activities, as they are shielded from Atlantic Ocean’s swells. For this reason, you will see lots of holiday makers and locals sunning themselves on the velvet sands and taking to the water for reinvigoration.
The Colony Club Beach, known as Heron Bay Beach to the locals, is the closest beach to Windfall. These waters have an excellent display of marine life and coastal birds, so make sure to rent some snorkelling gear and take a water-based adventure during the day. There are several businesses that will allow guests to make the most of this striking seaside expanse and enable guests to rent equipment or of pay for day-trips.
Being close to Sugar Hill Estate and Apes Hill Polo Club, you and your guests will have an array of additional services to use. We recommend witnessing the famous Luxury Golf Course first hand. This 72 par, 7,060 yard, course has remarkably well-kept fairways and is surrounded by indigenous florae that you won’t have seen before. Golf enthusiasts won’t want to leave…hopefully this won’t drive a wedge between loved ones!
Holetown is the closest Town to Windfall and has everything you and your guests require for an unforgettable holiday. Holetown certainly has fine dining down to a tee! If you are keen for a Caribbean, Asian or even a European menu; you’ll find it here. During the evening, Holetown lights up and becomes a mini-hub for budding socialites. First & Second Streets are where you will be able to find some quirky bars that embrace the spirit(s) of the Caribbean. There are plenty of places which prepare a good Bajan Rum Punch, but instead enquire about a Zombie. Be warned, this is a drink for those with a strong palette…and stronger liver!At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
