We had a great stay here … Very clean and tidy with a great little pool in the back garden… There is also a communal larger pool but the pool at the property was perfect for us…Great location car not necessary but we did hire a car to travel around more of the island,

We had an amazing time in Barbados. Everything was great from arrival, enjoying our stay, to departure. Communication with Joanne (owner) and Marcia (property manager) was excellent. The unit was clean and well equipped, it had everything we needed. Our kids loved the plunge pool. It was just a short walk to the beach. Sitting on the terrace with a cup of coffee in the morning, watching the green monkeys and the humming birds was a treat. Highly recommend this property, would definitely stay again! Thanks!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The accommodation suited us well and there was everything that we needed in the villa. The plunge pool is a great added bonus. We will definitely be back.

The villa was super - the description was just as it says on the tin !! It felt like home from home - there was absolutely everything you could need in the villa. We sat for hours in the mornings & evenings watching all the birds in the trees behind the property, humming birds, tiny little yellow/black birds & even 4 parrots. The fireflies in the evening were magical, it was like watching a disney film. The complex is quiet, private and immaculately maintained. Joanne, the owner & Marcia the property manager are both very friendly & helpful and answered any queries straight away. There are some great bars/restaurants within a 20 minute walk and we had a car for the duration of our stay as there are soooooo many fantastic places to visit around the island - WE LOVE IT !!!!!!!!!

The property is EXACTLY as shown, and better. Joanne is amazing and is always on the end of a phone if needed as is Marcia, the property manager.
Everything worked and was clean. Very safe and in a gated community.
Brand new pool that was lovely to jump in at the end of a hot day out. 5 min walk to the beach.
Al fresco dining outside and lovely through breeze from the front of the property.
All I can say is GO!!! and experience for yourself.
My husband is from Barbados so we return regularly and stay is several different properties according to the size of the group that comes with us, so can compare with previous experiences so I hope this helps anyone thinking of renting Joanne’s beautiful house.
Thank you Joanne. 😊

We had an amazing experience staying at Jo’s place.
This house really has everything that you need and is very clean, organized and way bigger than the pictures show!
The location is perfect, you are only a 5 minute walk to the beach, we had many beautiful sunset and sunrise walks. You are also only a 15 minute walk into Holetown which has everything you need from shops, cafes, clothes, bars.
Lonestar is a 10 minute walk north and has beautiful sunsets too.
Throughout our stay Jo and Michaela (house manager) were extremely responsive and available. We also had a cleaner, Paulina who did a wonderful job every week.
The community at porters gate has lots of amenities too including a tennis court, swimming pool, clubhouse and small gym.
We cannot thank Jo enough for hosting us, we’ve completely fallen in love with the beautiful island of Barbados!

Great accommodation in a tranquil and safe gated community with a shared pool, tennis court and peaceful garden.
We spent every evening sitting on the deck until bedtime enjoying listening to the tropical sounds of the night and didn’t turn the television on once, so relaxing so refreshing. There is no air conditioning in the living area but by leaving the back and front doors open there was always a lovely breeze going through the house and onto the deck. There is air conditioning in the bedrooms but we only used it for a few minutes before bedtime.
The best beaches in Barbados are a 10 minute walk away and a French bakery even closer. Out side the bakery a lovely lady sells vegetables and eggs from a van on Sundays, Tuesdays and Fridays.
There is no need to have a car as the bus stop is a couple of minutes away and the buses are frequent and cheap. I would advise not getting on a bus unless there is a seat as their driving can be quite erratic, better to wait a few minutes for the next bus.
Massy supermarket is in Holetown which is a few minutes on the bus or a lovely half hour stroll along the beach with lots of eating , banking and shopping options.
You can walk from the house to several restaurants, Juju’s for drinks at sunset and casual dining on the beach, Top Deck for middle of the road dining and the more expensive Lone Star restaurant.
We enjoyed eating at Zaccios and Tides in Holetown but our favourite restaurant was La Cabane on Batts Rock beach South of Fitts Village where they serve food prepared with care and passion served in casual surroundings under the trees overlooking the sea. Make sure you book as it’s popular.
We had a great holiday and would recommend staying here, Joanne kept us well informed both before and during our stay.
