The Neighborhood:

The property is located on the southeast part of the island that’s a little less busy but not any less beautiful! The nearest beach is Shark Hole, about 1.6 km|1 mile away. It’s a tiny beach tucked away in a cove. Sam Lord’s Castle, a notorious pirate’s castle, is about a 5-9 minute drive (or 25-min walk) from the home. There’s a nearby lookout where you can get some really great pictures and a secluded beach there if you’d like to have a picnic. And Six Roads is just a 6-10 minute drive away with everything you could need – eateries, supermarkets, banks, shopping, hardware, Western Union, and much more. It’s kind of like a mini Bridgetown but closer to home!



We also recommend renting a car and exploring all the island has to offer. For example, St. Lawrence Gap (about a 25-min drive) is known for its fine dining, lively nightlife, and good shopping. Here are some of our top recommendations (with approximate distances from the home):
