Waterfront vacation rentals in Saint Philip

Absolutely stunning stay at The View! The ocean is literally at your doorstep — we fell asleep to the sound of waves and woke up to breathtaking sunrises. The space is spotless, stylish, and super comfortable. Silver Sands is peaceful and picturesque, and the host made everything effortless. If you're looking for a serene, beachfront escape in Barbados, this is it. Our host was warm, responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed to feel right at home. From local tips to thoughtful touches throughout the property, the hospitality was top-notch. If you’re looking for a magical, oceanfront escape in Barbados, The View is it. We left feeling completely refreshed, already dreaming about our next visit. We didn’t want to leave! 🌅🌊🌴 5 stars!

Kevin was an excellent host, always available and responsive about questions we had as well as many recommendations for things to do/places to see. We were pleasantly surprised that the balcony was bigger than it looked in the pictures. You cannot beat the view of having a private balcony literally on the beach. The beach in front of the apartment did have lots of seaweed the time of year we went so we didn't spend too much time in the water there, but Carlisle Bay is a short 15 min drive away for the perfect lazy beach days we all wish to have on vacation. Carlisle bay also has excellent snorkeling if you bring your own gear and don't mind a leisurely 100yd swim or so to get to the shipwrecks. Having the waves as a natural sound machine made every night pleasant and restful as well as having AC in the bedrooms to keep it nice and cool. We highly recommend renting a car vs using public transport so you can have a lot more freedom to roam the island on your own time.

It was exactly what I needed. Beautiful set up and location love the levels. Very spacious. Amazing beach setting Sound of waves all day Very local. Everything in walking distance or a cheap z van. Thank you for everything

Great location near the Gap, very spacious apartment, great pool, incredibly flexible and friendly local host (Orissa) (the flexibility was much appreciated as we had four 2 and under!) - an overall great stay!

I really enjoyed my stay at this comfortable condo for six. The space was clean and cozy, with everything we needed for a relaxing visit. The kitchen was well-equipped, making it easy to cook meals at home. The location was great—close to plenty of restaurants and just a short drive to the South Coast. Would definitely stay here again!

Great host, very friendly and responsive. Wonderful location just steps from the beach! Includes all the amenities you need. Only minor downside is the noise from nearby vehicle and air traffic. Overall, highly recommended!

There are no words to describe the beauty of this place. The hosts, Nancy and her brother Danny, are extremely kind and helpful. The place, well, is just perfect. (way better than the pictures) Oh, and you gonna love the 2 dogs ... 🥰 I strongly recommend Nancy's place for any travellers, and personally I look forward to book it again. Thank you!

I checked a couple of times over the last couple of months after booking our flights to Barbados for a place, and the Sapphire Condos kept popping up, and Vijay's place was available. I am happy we decided to book his place. It was for my family of 4, which has two small children. We shopped at local markets and cooked most of our food, but there is a good coffee shop a short distance away. Also, plenty of restaurants. The air conditioners work great, the beds are nice, and the pool access is right outside the lower-level door. The beach is very kid-friendly and easy to go from the pool to the beach. We really enjoyed our stay and want to come back to Barbados. There are a couple of small books in the house about Barbados and what to do and sites to see, take a look at those. All the research we did before coming didn't have all the information that these two books had.

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.

We loved staying at Atlantis in Bathsheba. The ocean views from the bedrooms are stunning. The staff is very friendly, and Antonio, the manager, is super communicative. Breakfast was delicious and we loved lounging in the common areas. 10/10 would recommend!

Book with confidence! Kathy is a responsive and helpful host, with obvious price in the residence, to the point of visiting shortly after our arrival to help check-in. The location is more walkable than most, with very easy access to a grocery store, an excellent/affordable restaurant, and the Oistin's fish fry. As I later found out... other homes outside of tourist-y areas are not so conveniently located as this one. We slept very well and were not impacted by street noise. The bedrooms were very comfortable, air conditioned, with sinks in each room. At the time of our visit, the entire east and south coasts were impacted by beach seaweed. Not ideal... but the views, beach access, local culture and amenities... cannot be beat! Goodwyn provides a great deal at a very good value. Thank you Kathy, for hosting our first visit to Barbados!

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.

We had an amazing stay! The location of the place is extremely quiet and calming the perfect getaway. The ocean view was definitely my favorite part; waking up to it every morning was a dream. We had a small hiccup at the beginning of our stay, but the host handled it with excellent communication and kindness, even though the issue wasn’t their fault. You're about 10–20 minutes away from most things, which made it easy to explore while still enjoying peace and privacy. Overall, it was an incredible experience and we can’t wait to book again!

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 ❤️

My family and I had a wonderful stay at Karen's property. Initially it took a while for messages to be returned in a timely manner, but we mostly did our communication through Karen's daughter, and she was wonderful. She was also our contact while at the property due to Karen's travel schedule and Alex was AMAZING. Responsive, helpful and ran over a couple times to drop off more towels, detergent, etc. Karen's home is lovely. There isn't much immediately around the house in terms of amenities, but you can get everything you need in a short car ride. And you can certainly stay put and have a wonderful time. The pool was great, the views were amazing and we were very comfortable at Karen's home.

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 🇧🇧❤️

Far exceeded our expectations. Garry is an attentive host, responds in minutes, very useful tips and recommendations. The attention to detail is excellent. The unit has EVERYTHING you can think of, and then some. Location is great, walking distance to restaurants, stores, transportation. The taxis are right outside. Midstay clean was totally unexpected and a lovely touch. We will be back.

Saudia is an amazing host that is responsive, helpful, and proactive. This was the easiest check in and check our process that I have ever experienced through Airbnb. Her beautiful property was everything I could have ever imagined and more. Her recs and attention to detail only elevated the trip.

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.

Thank you Mary for allow me to celebrate my birthday. at one love , the location The view was everything i highly recommend one love .

This was our first time in Barbados and this property made for a great trip. We would definitely stay there again. Great location right in the middle of all the St Lawrence Gap action and restaurants, but still felt secluded and private when on property. We were greeted at the location when we arrived and given a thorough walk through of the property as well as local recommendations. If you are looking for a place to stay on the south coast look no further!

We had a lovely and relaxing stay at Maxwell Beach Villas! Yonette was an excellent host- always prompt in answering our questions. We were welcomed with rum punch and fresh rum cake! The pictures accurately describe the layout of condo and it was extremely clean and neat upon arrival . The view of the ocean and pool really blew us away, we never got tired of sitting on the terrace and enjoying the ocean view. It is important, though, to mention that the beach directly in front of the property is much smaller than shown in the pictures. I do wish the photos were more accurate to the current state of the beach. There is a large amount of seaweed there as well. For this reason we didn’t use the beach directly on the property but luckily it’s a short drive to many gorgeous beaches which we enjoyed throughout the week. The condo is also situated near many restaurants and stores. Our children loved the pool on the property and swam every day. Overall this was a very relaxing vacation!

Stunning apartment, with ocean views from every room. Amazing layout for 2 couples, with basically 2 suites. Unbeatable st Lawrence gap location and lovely host. Plus a little pool, just as cool as you didn't know you needed! Many thanks for have us. It was wonderful, a dream vacation.

Lovely spot, clean and comfortable, with a beautiful view from the shady covered deck, and a sunny plunge pool. Easy walk to restaurants at the Gap, and easy to hop on a ZR bus to Bridgetown right out front
