Waterfront vacation rentals in Saint Philip

The apartment is charming and exactly matches the photos. We immediately felt at home. We spent hours on the beautiful terrace without getting tired of looking at the sea and listening to the soothing sound of the waves. The location is optimal, a quarter of an hour from the airport, along the coastal road that leads from Oistins to Bridgetown, so it is very well connected even for those who, like us, have chosen to use public transportation. For example, you can go on excursions to nearby beaches or inland to immerse yourself in the charm of this beautiful island. During the stay, the presence of algae somewhat limited access but did not affect the beauty of the beach below, which was sandy, natural and secluded. Kevin is a friendly and caring host who welcomed us with kindness and with the refrigerator stocked with drinks, much appreciated after the long journey. We'll be happy to come back and we can only recommend this apartment.

This apartment was perfect for our family. It was an easy quick bus ride from the airport. Was located near to all of the following: grocery store, restaurants, gift shops, banks/ATMs, bus stop, swimming. To top it off, the back porch, the view, and being steps from the sand made it hard to leave some days. We would definitely stay here again without hesitation.

Sapphire Beach Resort was amazing. It a much needed vacation for me and my friends. The locations is close to St Lawrence Gap. It was our first time in Barbados. This place felt like home for us for five nights. It was amazing waking up to the sounds of the waves every morning. Dover Beach was scenic and serene. Highly recommend this condo especially if you're traveling with a big group. We had five people that stayed on this property and everyone had a bed and ample space. St Lawrence Gap is a quick 10 minute walk to the bars, restaurants. There's a small market nearby as well for all your necessities. We got lucky since this place is normally booked months in advance. Book it!!

I had a great experience during my recent trip to Barbados. The space was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed for a relaxing stay. One of the highlights was the location—just a short walk to Worthing Beach, which was perfect for morning swims and sunset views. It’s also right off St. Lawrence Gap, so there were tons of restaurants, bars, and local spots to explore within walking distance. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a convenient, well-kept spot in a vibrant part of the island!

My family of four had a wonderful stay at Todd & Barbara’s place. It was so peaceful. We felt very safe in the area. They also have a car you can rent which I recommend if you want to explore the island. There are plenty of food options that are close and a beautiful beach perfect for swimming just a few minutes walk down the road. Barbara arranged a taxi for us to the airport day of departure. We would definitely stay here again.

You will not get a better location than this wonderful apartment, we were top floor with the most amazing views, and direct access on to Freights Bay, which was perfect for us surfing, no traipsing with heavy boards, there is a gate at the bottom of property that leads directly on to the beach ( sometimes the tide comes right up) would definitely recommend beach shoes, the rocks are unforgiving under foot. Surf Board Rack provided undercover. Loved this location, it was everything we hoped for. Sassie was a wonderful host, all of the staff were super welcoming. A really nice touch is the water cooler which was a blessing during the hot days. Washing up liquid, soap, sponges provided. A truly magnificent stay, the only thing I would have liked a sun lounger to rest post surf sessions 🤣🙌🏼 it’s possible to walk into oistins, really recommend caspers & surfers cafe for food, car not necessary but made our lives easier with trips to supermarket and visiting other beaches.

Vijay's place was great. Really nice apartment with a good location and a beautiful view. Although this unit is in a large building, it has it's own separate entrance and also has direct access to the pool via the sliding door in the downstairs bedroom (so, even though you're in a relatively big building, it feels like you're in a townhouse). The parking space is right next to the door of the condo, which is great, but, it's a bit of a tight squeeze so you may not want to rent a car with a wide wheelbase (we rented a Jimny which fit great because it's a narrow car).

Amazing, peaceful home beautifully set out and tranquil beyond relief. Very thoughtfully put together and gracious hosts.

Lex’s place had it all. There is a beautiful beach right outside the back door, it’s walkable to a grocery store, several cafes and bars and the Friday fish fry. We also could grab busses right outside the house to get to Bridgetown for more beaches and restaurants. Walking around felt safe (well lit) but of course be aware of your surroundings and the cars wiz by so be aware of where the sidewalks are. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space. We loved how there were lots of towels and pillows! The only thing to prepare for is that the second bedroom gets traffic noise so maybe bring earplugs if you’re sleeping in that room.

This is a lovely beach cottage. The beach is picture perfect. There are shops, restaurants and grocery store all within walking distance. If you are looking for a quiet beach with no crowds this is the place for you.

Surfview is a pleasant, small community made up of 7 one story apartments plus a very clean swimming pool. Most of the people staying there are long time owners who are open to socializing which occurs mostly around the pool since there isn’t a beach directly in front of the establishment at this time. The community is located right on the ocean where you can visit the coral rock point and then adventure further to the kilometer long, undeveloped Long Beach. Ian, who is the local caretaker of the grounds and pool is friendly with everyone and has a beautiful singing voice and Cecelia who cleans apartment Apt #9 is also a treasure. Both have worked at Surfpoint for over 30 years. The owner of #9 is very supportive and responsive to all your needs.

It was our second stay in this beautiful house. Living room fully opens to large deck overlooking the ocean. Overhang allows for sitting down to morning coffee or afternoon dinners. Breathtaking views. We used bbq on few occasions. Large refrigerator makes it easy to store food and few beers. Kitchen has enough of dishes and cooking necessities to make any meal happen. Very comfortable beds and just the ride amount of AC at night make it perfect. Super quiet street. Very responsive hosts to any extra requests. Colorful, hip and sometimes rustic area with kite surfers. 10-15 min ride to Enterprise Beach and Oistins depending on the traffic. Definitely great stay. I’m sure we will be back.

I just love everything about this house . You feel like you are living in the heart of Barbados . Milena and Mark are the best hosts. So attentive and friendly ❤️

The pictures do not do this house justice! The view is just out of this world! We chose Barbados for a family surf trip with small kids and this house and location worked so well for us. The house overlooks Freights Bay, which is a great beginner longboard spot. There is a path with stairs right to this spot; it can be a little difficult to get in and out of at high tide, but fine between tides and low tide. We primarily surfed at South Point which was about a 8 min walk down Seaside Drive or drove to Brandon's to surf, which was about a 20-30 minute drive. The house is walkable to Miami Beach (about 15 min walk) for a calmer beach for swimming. Karen and her daughter were very responsive and checked in on us the whole trip. They also provided us with a pack n play crib, which was so appreciated!. The metal gates throughout the house were also so nice to let the breeze in, but keep the kids away from the pool. We had a wonderful stay!

The location of Celia’s place is ideal is you want to be by the coast, it’s stunning and the hose itself has a vintage style and charm which I loved. You are basically in Surfers point which is more rural, lush, and peaceful with easy access to Oistins (10 mins) and Bridgetown (15/20) on the Z bus or car. I wanted to surf so this was perfect, Zeds Surf school, is right next door for private 1-1 lessons. The coastal breezes in this location are constant and very welcome as Celia’s place does not have air conditioning, which we struggled with during the nights. The area does lack grocery stores or coffee places, Buff’s is there for some basics but it’s limited. oistins has all you need, supermarket and fresh fish at really good prices. Unfortunately the basics such as milk, cheese, eggs, coffee are very expensive. I paid 3 x as much for milk! Barbados is very expensive day to day, more so than I had expected, I’d be better prepared now if I return. We had a magical time there 🇧🇧❤️

This was such a great place! The pictures don’t even do it justice. Absolutely beautiful, private beach (all beaches are public in Barbados, but felt like everyone here was staying in the complex). Each room had its own air conditioner. Kitchen had super cool appliances. Lots of good restaurants in walking distance. Experience was flawless. Would definitely return.

We spent 11 great vacation days at the blue waters condo. We felt at home from the very first moment! It has enough space, is clean, well equipped, cozy garden, quietly located.... The location is also excellent, a short walk to our favorite beach, Oistins is also within walking distance. And the communication with Alicia worked great! We will definitely be back and are already looking forward to it. Many thanks Monika and Ruth

Lovely accommodation in a great location for St Lawrence Gap. Becky was brilliant with information and communication. Would definitely recommend and look to book again in the future!

We really enjoyed our stay, especially the views from the patio where we spent the morning drinking coffee and having breakfast. Location was close to good restaurants and the unit had plenty of space to accommodate our family of 5. The pool was a good size and perfect to take a late afternoon swim after an exploring the island (and was in the shade for the late afternoon). The location felt very secure with gated access to/from the beach, the street, and interior doors that were locked late in the evening to access the elevators. Parking spot is very narrow and was a bit tricky to navigate, but we made it work.

We loved our stay at Mary’s place. The unit had plenty of room for 2 adults and 2 teenagers. The balcony was very spacious, and we spent a lot of time out there enjoying the view. The location was perfect. There are plenty of restaurants on the street, and 2 beautiful beaches within walking distance. There is a convenience store just down the road that is well stocked, but pricey. Clifton Market is a good choice if you’re walking. If driving the Massy store is the best option. The pool area is really nice. We all spent a good amount of time there. We used the full-sized, free washers and dryers that were down by the pool instead of the one in the unit. There are a couple of loud pubs across the street that play music well into the night. Honestly, this did not bother my wife our I in the master bedroom. We barely heard it unless we went to the bathroom. My kids in the other room were also not bothered by it. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it.

Peter’s place is in a lovely location and is bright and spacious. It is just like in the photos, but the view is even more spectacular. Peter is a responsive and hands on host. There is a bar across the street which played very loud music until 11 pm most nights we were there. It’s not something within the host’s control of course, but just wanted to raise this for other families. We enjoyed our stay!

Janet’s condo is beautiful. Spotlessly clean with a gorgeous view of the ocean from the large balcony. 2 large bedrooms, large lounge/kitchen. Very well appointed and lovely furnishings . Perfect for 4 people. Well equipped with everything we needed for our holiday. We all have thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Thankyou

One of the best stays hands down!! Not only was the property exactly how pictured, but the area was in the heart of everything. You could literally walk out the back and into the ocean. Thank you for everything Eneko and Gotzone! We will be back!
