Charming 2 bedroom 2 shower room self catering apt on a gorgeous quiet beach



Attractive ground floor apartment with shared patio leading directly onto one of the quietest and most beautiful beaches on the West Coast with excellent swimming and snorkeling in crystal clear water. Comprising 2 air conditioned bedrooms with powerful en suite showers. The main feature of the apartment is its inside/outside living with beautiful views of the Caribbean, especially at sunset. There are several excellent restaurants nearby and the local shopping centre and supermarket is within easy reach. You are 1.5km away from Sandy Lane and its world class golf facilities and watersports, fishing etc are virtually on your doorstep if you require.
The apartment has ifibre optic nternet access and on site security.
Little Reef is well situated for multiple activities. Directly on a very beautiful beach there is snorkelling on the reef a short swim out from the shore. Boat activities are on offer from passing operators on the way to the big resorts past Sandy Lane. Fishermen bring in the catch in Fitts Village five minutes down the beach. Jordan's Supermarket is five minutes walk along the beach and there are restaurants within easy reach by foot or car. There are no high rise blocks of apartments, no fast food outlets nearby but local food restaurants are within walking distance. if you want to shop, need a Bank a good meal or a pizza, even a bit of night life, Holetown is fifteen minutes away by bus or car and Bridgetown and the South Coast around twenty minutes by car and the busses pass regularly!
If you just want to sit and do nothing but soak up the sun Little Reef has a lovely patio with an ambiance all it's own . The sunsets are very often spectacular and to sip a cool drink watching the boats go by is truly the most relaxing and stress free activity of them all.
We just want you to enjoy the experience!

Spent 9 days over the new year at little reefThis was our third visit and we will be backThis is the perfect place to stay if you enjoy peace and quiet and enjoy the ocean without being too far away from the action.New addition since our last visit is the Bikini beach bar just a few yards up the beach Great cocktails at a reasonable ( for Barbados) prices.Waking up to the sound of the waves and having arum or two at sundown watching the Sunset is priceless.Michael was very helpful and Grantley next door looked after us as well.Very difficult to find anything like Little ReefEnjoy

We had the most amazing week. I’m certain there couldn’t be a more beautiful place on the whole island. We loved being able to hear the ocean at night even with the doors closed. The cottage was extremely clean and very quaint. If I could add any suggestion of improvement, it would only be to possible rig some sort of mosquito net so the doors could stay open all night. We are from Arkansas so we were quite familiar with the little pests. Thanks for sharing your lovely place!

We had a lovely two week stay at Little Reef. Right on a perfect quiet beach, within easy reach of all the West Coast has to offer. Bed was comfy, air con great, WiFi fast and the apartment although basic had everything you needed. The sunsets were spectacular!

The apartment was excellent, with very good facilities. It was only a few steps to the beach, which was almost always deserted. The sea was warm and the swimming a delight. Very good restaurants and other facilities close by.

Just the perfect Bajan place. We’ll set up, really comfortable, on the water, great location with access to everything. Little Reef is a well loved family place that we all get to share. Great host and local managers who are on hand whenever needed. Highly recommended

We stayed at Little Reef for one week in June 2024. We were 4 adults sharing the space. We thoroughly enjoyed both the location and home. It truly felt like a home. The beach couldn't have been any closer. Check in was very smooth and both Michael and Grantley were very helpful. We enjoyed swimming and snorkelling directly off of the patio. The kitchen was very well stocked. Our only suggestion would be for an update of the bathrooms and kitchen. We would definitely stay again in Fitt's Village. It was very easy to find our way to wherever we wanted to go.

I can’t rate this place highly enough. The location is perfect, the apartment well equipped. Grantley and Michael can’t do enough to help out during your stay if you need anything and Sally is a great host. This property is probably the best all round place I’ve ever found on VRBO! The reviews say it all really.

This west coast accommodation is very convenient to exploring Barbados! Beautiful setting on the water too! The lower apartment was very nicely outfitted but could use a little updating. Only negative to our whole experience was the loud traffic early in the morning. The property owners were a pleasure to deal with!

When we booked, we were torn between the tourist area of the South side of the island or the calmer waters on the West coast. We visited the South coast, great bars and restaurants, but best beaches are West coast hands down. Go the grocery store, load up and relax at the Little Reef. Nice Italian place a short walk down the beach. When we go back to Barbados this is the place I will look at first for availability!!

This is the 2nd time we stayed at Little Reef. Our 1st time was 5 years ago. This stay was just as relaxing and satisfying as our last. The addition of the wifi and TV was a welcome improvement. Michael and Grantly were very responsive to some questions we had. This villa is a hidden gem.

Stayed at little reef for 2 weeks and it was everything we'd dreamt of, beautiful location fabulous beach and a really nice apartment, it was our first time in Barbados but won't be our last. The location of Little reef makes a perfect base in which to explore the island. We always felt safe anywhere on Barbados, the people are so friendly and helpful, Grantley the caretaker lives right next door and is always on hand if you need him, after we arrived Sally rang to make sure every thing was alright which was a nice touch when your in a strange place,

I cannot stress enough the incredible feeling of jumping into the sea at any moment of the day or night. We spent many hours lounging in the waters revelling in our luck. We were so conveniently located to everything west coast, an easy bus ride to Bridgetown and beyond towards the south coast as well. The primary bed is incredibly comfortable, the outdoor balcony becomes our hangout thanks to the bifold doors that open up completely to the west horizon. Mr. Michael, Grantley and Sally the owner were all accessible and accommodating. We will be back for sure. Barbados after Hurricane Beryl was a dream and we feel so grateful to everyone on this little island for showing us how resilient and kind you are. My heart ❤️

The situation is wonderful overlooking the sea. However there were several teething problems, not least the cleanliness of the house. The exterior had just finished being decorated the previous day and everything was covered with dust. The air conditioning in the main bedroom wasn’t working but this was rectified the next day with a new unit supplied. The following day the house was cleaned thoroughly. The next problem was the washer wasn’t working and despite being informed that a technician would be coming round after 11.30am this never happened. The house needs a lot of TLC which is a shame as it could have been lovely as it is in a perfect position.

Loved this property with its fantastic location and views straight out to sea. The best place to sit in the evenings with a glass of wine watching the sunset. Well equipped kitchen, great for us as we love to cook. The property is on the main road but this didn’t bother us at all, we only used the main bedroom which looks out over the sea so noise wasn’t a problem for us. Easy to explore the rest of the island from here, we had a car but there are frequent buses from just outside. The only possible downside is that the main terrace is shared with the flat upstairs which can feel a bit intrusive at times. Over all a lovely place with outstanding views, we really enjoyed our stay.

We have just returned from our second holiday at Little Reef, and already I am missing the sound of the waves lapping against the garden walls, the amazing views of the almost deserted beach, having breakfast on the terrace watching flying fish leap, and dipping in and out of the Caribbean at will,and of course the lovely Bajan people. Little Reef is very special. It has all the owner describes and more, An amazing apartment with a charm all of it's own, and we love it. I would highly reccommend to beach lovers, families with small children, couples looking for peace and quiet but with lots of amenities within easy reach. Many thanks Sally for sharing Little Reef with us again, it was bliss.

Our 5 day stay was to commemorate our 30th wedding anniversary since we had visited Barbados on our honeymoon. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Little Reef. The apartment is well equipped, clean, and comfortable. We had wonderful weather which allowed us to enjoy the spectacular views and dine on the porch. One of the highlights for the place was the wonderful snorkeling equipment that was provided. We went snorkeling 3 out of 5 days right off the beach and saw some beautiful tropical fish as well as a Hawksbill Sea Turtle. There are some great restaurants and grocery within walking distance. Just a note about the seaweed that is all over the island- it was minimal on our beach and was gone the next day. If we ever come back to Barbados it will be to stay at Little Reef again.
