Little Reef is well situated for multiple activities. Directly on a very beautiful beach there is snorkelling on the reef a short swim out from the shore. Boat activities are on offer from passing operators on the way to the big resorts past Sandy Lane. Fishermen bring in the catch in Fitts Village five minutes down the beach. Jordan's Supermarket is five minutes walk along the beach and there are restaurants within easy reach by foot or car. There are no high rise blocks of apartments, no fast food outlets nearby but local food restaurants are within walking distance. if you want to shop, need a Bank a good meal or a pizza, even a bit of night life, Holetown is fifteen minutes away by bus or car and Bridgetown and the South Coast around twenty minutes by car and the busses pass regularly!
If you just want to sit and do nothing but soak up the sun Little Reef has a lovely patio with an ambiance all it's own . The sunsets are very often spectacular and to sip a cool drink watching the boats go by is truly the most relaxing and stress free activity of them all.
We just want you to enjoy the experience!

A room with a fantastic view
The situation is wonderful overlooking the sea. However there were several teething problems, not least the cleanliness of the house. The exterior had just finished being decorated the previous day and everything was covered with dust. The air conditioning in the main bedroom wasn’t working but this was rectified the next day with a new unit supplied. The following day the house was cleaned thoroughly. The next problem was the washer wasn’t working and despite being informed that a technician would be coming round after 11.30am this never happened. The house needs a lot of TLC which is a shame as it could have been lovely as it is in a perfect position.

Million dollar views
I cannot stress enough the incredible feeling of jumping into the sea at any moment of the day or night. We spent many hours lounging in the waters revelling in our luck. We were so conveniently located to everything west coast, an easy bus ride to Bridgetown and beyond towards the south coast as well. The primary bed is incredibly comfortable, the outdoor balcony becomes our hangout thanks to the bifold doors that open up completely to the west horizon. Mr. Michael, Grantley and Sally the owner were all accessible and accommodating. We will be back for sure. Barbados after Hurricane Beryl was a dream and we feel so grateful to everyone on this little island for showing us how resilient and kind you are. My heart ❤️

Fantastic Location
We stayed at Little Reef for one week in June 2024. We were 4 adults sharing the space. We thoroughly enjoyed both the location and home. It truly felt like a home. The beach couldn't have been any closer. Check in was very smooth and both Michael and Grantley were very helpful. We enjoyed swimming and snorkelling directly off of the patio. The kitchen was very well stocked. Our only suggestion would be for an update of the bathrooms and kitchen. We would definitely stay again in Fitt's Village. It was very easy to find our way to wherever we wanted to go.

Perfect getaway
Our stay at Little Reef was amazing. This wonderfully charming property was nothing short of a perfect get away. Michael was the consummate property manager and Grantley was a perfect gentleman. The place was clean and felt like a well cared for "home" not just a rental. Everything worked and was very comfortable. All the amenities were great. Loved the Weber grill! That is a rarity in Barbados. The view is perfect and the deck is the best. I am a big fan of the heat so I loved being able to open the doors/glass walls in the living area and sliding door the bedroom and be one with outside. At times the heat was a bit much and there was no A/C in the main living area but we worked that out as the A/C in the other rooms compensated nicely but a separate oscillating fan would have been nice for the heat and some of the mosquitos at night. The travel book helped with finding places and Little Reef was listed for the catamaran cruise pick up right from your front door. The location of this property was great for access to the buses and walking distance to many attractions and bars and beaches. Snorkeling right outside our back door was the best and we saw everything from fish to eels to octopus. The access to the water is the best from directly behind the house which was perfect. The west coast beaches are tranquil and azure, the water here was perfect. I highly recommend this rental for it's value, access, charm and location. FYI, I accidentally signed out of Netflix. Sorry.

This is the 2nd time we stayed at Little Reef. Our 1st time was 5 years ago. This stay was just as relaxing and satisfying as our last. The addition of the wifi and TV was a welcome improvement. Michael and Grantly were very responsive to some questions we had. This villa is a hidden gem.

Little Reef
This large apartment is a great value for the location right on the beach. The waves are crashing literally just outside the patio. Getting to the safe swim beach can be a bit dicey with the surf so close and the rocks so near. Timing is everything. The place is not fancy but it is comfortable and has everything you need. There is an upstairs apartment with guests that share the patio, which was no problem but we were lucky to have good people in there at the time. We had a pair of monkeys come through the back patio and they were surprisingly amazing to see. The back doors open up to the big blue Caribbean Sea and bring in a nice breeze. We watched all the action of boats, catamarans and jet skis coming and going until sunset. The views really make Little Reef worth the stay.

I can’t rate this place highly enough. The location is perfect, the apartment well equipped. Grantley and Michael can’t do enough to help out during your stay if you need anything and Sally is a great host. This property is probably the best all round place I’ve ever found on VRBO! The reviews say it all really.

Great Stay
We had a great stay at Little Reef. The location is great and has direct ocean access with small coral reefs, lots of fish and the occasional turtle. The apartment had everything we needed and has restaurants, beaches and a grocery store within walking distance. The only small drawback is the road which is very busy and noisy at times.

What a fabulous little spot!!😍 Great location whether you want to just chill on a beach or sunbeds at your apartment...or jump on a bus to Holetown, Bridgetown or further. Michael and Grantley there to meet us on arrival to show us around..and Grantley just next door should there be any problems, which there weren't 😀 Much appreciated welcome pack provided... beer milk eggs bread etc👍 Lovely apartment, huge bed in main bedroom, great views, barbeque to cook the fish bought just down the road at Paynes beach and supermarket 5 minutes the other way😊 Italian restaurant just down the road, Wendy's sports bar...great food..just 2 minutes away. Spent 3 days at the cricket and the rest just relaxing at Little Reef 😎 If we ever return to Barbados 'Little Reef' would be at the top of my list. Many thanks Sally and Nicole 🥰

Seaside heaven
We had a lovely time at Little Reef and thank goodness we were there.. My wife having had an accident , whilst walking on the dodgy Barbados pavement and we were obliged to stay around the appartement much longer than expected. However the views help us with the various boating and shipping activities to watch. It also enabled me to go swimming frequently between my chores. The apartment was equipped with everything we needed. Unlike some places where you get all sparkling white tops meant for show this was homely and we loved it.. Micheal was always available if needed and welcomed us in whilst showing us around. Grantley, next door, kept the terrace free from sand and debris. With the supermarket in walking distance we made good use of the kitchen. We loved it.

Really enjoyed our stay here. We much prefer our own space and this place gave us that. Views of the sea from the master bedroom and the living space, walk straight out and it’s like being on a boat. The waves crash below you which is lovely. The sunset is also stunning. Bus stops a moment away to take you up to Holetown or down to Bridgetown easily flagged down and can be very fun (get the yellow bus!) House is perfect has everything you might need. Would definitely return.

This west coast accommodation is very convenient to exploring Barbados! Beautiful setting on the water too! The lower apartment was very nicely outfitted but could use a little updating. Only negative to our whole experience was the loud traffic early in the morning. The property owners were a pleasure to deal with!

It really is a beautiful location. The villa needs a little tlc, nothing major, new bedroom furniture and a proper clean, it certainly won’t stop us booking again. The location, views etc overcome the minor gripes.

Great property with direct access onto beautiful beach
Loved this property with its fantastic location and views straight out to sea. The best place to sit in the evenings with a glass of wine watching the sunset. Well equipped kitchen, great for us as we love to cook. The property is on the main road but this didn’t bother us at all, we only used the main bedroom which looks out over the sea so noise wasn’t a problem for us. Easy to explore the rest of the island from here, we had a car but there are frequent buses from just outside. The only possible downside is that the main terrace is shared with the flat upstairs which can feel a bit intrusive at times. Over all a lovely place with outstanding views, we really enjoyed our stay.

A little piece of heaven!
We are already missing the sounds of the waves and our daily walks on the beach. It is amazing to be able to have our meals sitting on the patio watching boats go by and feeling the warm breezes. The villa is very comfortable and has everything you need. Michael greeted us and gave us a tour of the villa when we arrived and was helpful and a call away to answer any questions as well as Sally herself. Samantha came in after our first-week stay and changed the sheets and cleaned. She is a delight. We had read other reviews where they wrote about the road noise and since we reside in the country at home we were concerned about this but had no issues. We slept well because the traffic is quiet overnight. The yellow buses were quite an adventure and took us basically everywhere we wanted to go. Our tour guide and taxi driver Dale was amazing and we learned so much about the island and it's history on the tours he took us on. Jordon's grocery store a 5 min walk away provided most of what we needed but Massey's in Holetown, a 5 to 10 min bus drive away depending on traffic, had everything we could get at home. We met a lovely woman a block from Jordon's named Laurelle who was a perfect treasure. She runs 'Laurelles Kitchen' where you could order a meal in the morning and pick up for lunch or dinner at reasonable rates so was our favorite. Le Cabanne was our ultimate dining experience a 5 min bus ride away on Batts Rock beach. Hands down the best lamb we ever ate. The weather is undeniably the best we have encountered anywhere on our travels with consistent daytime temps of 29C. Thanks go out to Grantley who was sweet and kept the grounds beautiful. It is a little piece of heaven that we will never forget. Thanks, Sally
