While still rustic, this 1 bed 1 bath unit offers an elevated feel with a brand new kitchen, custom built-ins with reed accents and our distinctive bamboo patio- open sky with surfboard shower.

The space
The patio offers little privacy but this means a great view of monkeys playing in neighbouring trees. You enter through the living room which boasts a huge 9' x 4' window offering tons of natural light.

Though less light, the kitchen/dining room/workspace are open concept. Brand new kitchen with granite countertops, 4 burner gas range, 12 cu ft fridge and a deep modern stainless steel sink with drainboard and open shelving making everything easy to find! The dining room offers a Ratan table and chairs for 4. The workspace has a generous desk with chair.

Continuing in, we find the ensuite air conditioned bedroom. This features a comfy queen bed, and bedside mood lighting above the nightstands. There is a custom built-in closet with reed accents and sheers curtains which cleverly hide the washing machine while providing ample space for clothing and suitcases. In true Bajan style, we kept the vanity in the bedroom and provide an ensuite but separate space for toilet and rain-style shower. This way two people can get ready to experience nightlife on the boardwalk at the same time.

Guest access
Guests will have access to the entire apartment and exclusive use of their bamboo patio (barring the gardeners access to tend to the plants).

Other things to note
This apartment is located in a charming 1860s-era Bajan house on the ground floor beneath another unit, so even though the ceiling is isolated, footsteps from above may be heard.

The property spans half an acre and includes 13 apartments, both short- and long-term rentals, which means there is regular activity with residents and guests coming and going.

We welcome welcome-stampers! Please message to discuss rates if you plan on renting longer term.
