Queens Fort 10 St. James, Barbados, Caribbean

Step into a calm retreat at Queens Fort 10. Set in the exclusive neighborhood of Queens Fort in St. James, the five-bedroom villa is close to several beautiful west-coast beaches, two golf courses and a short walk from Folkestone Marine Park. Of course, with cook service provided and a gorgeous pool to lounge around, you’ll hardly want to leave.

The gated property is made even more private by lush landscaping, and was designed to entertain. The main house’s bar opens to a covered outdoor lounge area that’s equally suited to a morning coffee or afternoon cocktail. Cross the tidy lawn to the sunny terrace, pool and gazebo with outdoor dining area, wet bar with wine cooler and barbecue. An outdoor shower along the path to the beach is a handy spot to rinse off after a swim. In addition to its two bars, the villa has a TV and DVD player, iPod dock and Wi-Fi for entertainment, and ceiling fans and air-conditioned bedrooms to ensure comfort.

A low profile and nearly all-white color scheme give the single-story villa a breezy, comfortable feel. The living room can accommodate the whole family on a curved white sectional, and the adjoining dining room seats eight around a striking black table. A buffet area just outside the kitchen makes room for pre-dinner drinks, hors d’oeuvres or quick dinner service. Though the services of a cook are included in your stay, there is a fully equipped kitchen with bright white cabinets and sleek stainless steel appliances.

There are three bedrooms in the main house at Queens Fort 10 and two in a separate cottage by the pool. Each bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, air conditioning and a ceiling fan. In the main house, the master bedroom has a king bed and opens to the garden, a second bedroom has a queen bed and the third bedroom has two twin beds. In the cottage, one bedroom has a king bed and the other has two twin beds.

During your stay, you’ll need plenty of time to explore all the nearby beaches: Colony Club Beach, just over a quarter-mile walk, Almond Beach Club, 1.5 miles away, Sandy Lane Beach, just under 2 miles away, Mullins Beach, 2.5 miles away, and Heywoods Beach, 4.5 miles away. Spend a few hours at Folkestone Marine Park, a 10-minute walk from the villa, play a game on the tennis court at Sandy Lane, about 2 miles away, or play a round at Royal Westmoreland Golf Course, 1.5 miles away, or Sandy Lane’s Green Monkey Golf Course, 3 miles away. From the villa, it’s a 1-mile drive to Holetown, 3.5 miles to Speightstown, 8 miles to Bridgetown and 18 miles to the airport.
