Encompassed by lofty coral walls and coconut trees, Ocean Mist Villa is ideally situated on the low cliff front of Barbados’ southeastern coast. This week’s Best of pick is perfect for guests seeking an intimate and idyllic vacation on the island’s windward side.
Gorgeous décor lures you into the great room, with soaring 35-foot ceilings and an eastern wall of glass that boasts exceptional vistas of the azure ocean. With varied sitting areas, this space is ideal for group activities, reading, entertaining, or just kicking back and enjoying the view. Three French doors conveniently open up onto a spacious back patio and pool deck.
Whipping up a hearty breakfast to keep you sated for the day’s activities is easy to do in Ocean Mist’s well-equipped kitchen. There’s plenty of room to entertain, too – the dining room easily seats ten guests, and the entertainment area has ample comfy seating. Outdoor parties are always an option on the back patio and pool deck, complete with a Weber barbecue and huge teak dining table.
Take a dive in the expansive swimming pool, or relax with a drink in the shallow end. The outdoor or indoor shower at the pool cabana is an exhilarating way to cap off a day in the sun.
The second floor is comprised of five bedrooms and two full bathrooms – as well as a cozy communal lounge area. Four bedrooms feature queen size beds wrapped in luxurious duvet covers and 600 thread count Egyptian cotton sheets. A wrap-around balcony awaits guests for their morning coffee or evening wine. Bunk beds in the fifth bedroom are perfect for kids. No need for a sound machine in any of the rooms – screened windows let you fall asleep to the soothing surf.
You really can’t beat Ocean Mist’s location - just15 minutes from the airport, and only a few minutes’ drive from Crane Beach. Daily maid service is provided, too, so you can truly relax.
