    A road sign or street name would be really helpful in locating the apartment block. Walking to the beach needs real care as there are short stretches with no pavement along a narrow and busy road.

    Lovely well appointed apartment. Good location for the beach, Holetown only 5 minutes drive away and nearby to 3 good restaurants

    The short walk along and across the road to the beach access was a bit treacherous… nothing to be done about it but glad I didn’t have little ones to worry about.

    Great spot with everything you need to have an amazing holiday. The plunge pool was fun and it was cool to have options for places to “hang out” when not out and about exploring the island. The beach was also one of our favourites.

    The only 'improver' is to provide a small welcome pack with coffee, bread, butter and milk. It is a little walk to the nearest convenience store and took a while to orientate ourselves.

    beautifully appointed and spacious

    In such a lovely place it seems odd that there was no starter pack of toiletries or washing powder or kitchen stuff such as foil, dishwasher tablets etc.,

    Beautiful spacious light townhouse immaculately clean. The plunge pool was a real welcome bonus. Ideally located for the West coast and near to public transport which we used once. Beds comfortable and well equipped kitchen. One of the few places we have stayed in the Caribbean where there was air conditioning in the lounge area as well as the bedrooms.

    Would have been great to have some basics provided (shower gel, coffee, dishwasher tablets etc) but Massy stores, where we stocked up on everything needed, was only a 5 min drive away.

    Location was great (walking distance to Lone Star restaurant, beach), easy parking, lots of space in the house, Netflix on the TVs, clean, lots of kitchen facilities (coffee maker, blender etc), cleaning and fresh towels every 3 days, easy check in and a late check out was made available to us which was much appreciated. Rooftop and plunge pool was a bonus!

    The pool for unit 2 was quite small - more of a plunge pool. It was fine for us but for a family wanting a larger pool for swimming, it may be too small for you.

    Extremely comfortable, with family friendly layout. Super close to beach and beach bars and restaurants. Conveniently located between Holetown and Speightstown and easy to get between both via local buses. The rooftop area was magical for viewing the evening sunsets too! The staff (Natasha in particular) were also wonderful. Always available, always very helpful with recommendations and helping sort out an emergency taxi for us. We had a minor issue with the air conditioning in one of the rooms and it was fixed within an hour!

    Our stay was unfortunately noted by the owner's repeated attempts to move us midway through our stay. This was due to planned repairs in the house. There was a lot of pressure put on us. In the end we defended our stay perhaps by arguing that we would contact booking. com.Really very unpleasant and unexpected in such a property.

    Very nicely designed house, stylishly furnished, with parking right next to the house. Sitting on the upper terrace of the house is beautiful at sunset. Natasha, who accommodated us, was very helpful and willing. We loved going to the pool.

    Information to let you know there is no reception desk & that you will be met by the agent. The option to purchase a welcome pack with milk, butter, bread etc would be useful.

    The location was very quiet just what we wanted. The accommodation was light, bright & spacious, it had everything you needed. Natasha was so friendly & helpful, gave lots of recommendations & booked a taxi for us.

    No major issues. Would have been a nice touch to have some basic supplies like water, coffee, tea, bread, eggs etc there upon arrival so we didn’t have to go to the supermarket immediately.

    Loved the spacious, bright townhouse in a great location. AC worked very well in all rooms. Rooftop had an amazing sea view. Didn’t want to leave!

    Nothing, the apartment was superb.

    Location was superb with a 2 min walk to the beach and The Lone Star restaurant. It was also a short 15 min to walk into Holetown. The team of Natasha & Nicole was excellent with any queries answered promptly. For example I requested a full size ironing board and although they normally only have a small one in the apartment it was there in a matter of hours.

    Living in Garden Grove was such a good experiences, especially with the help of housekeeper Natasha. She is such a nice going and helpful lady. She took us to a little neighborhood grocery to buy food and helped to change local money for bus riding and arranged airport transfer. The house itself is great, very neat tidy and comfortable with almost everything we need. The neighborhood was quiet and safe.
