Beachfront cottage with air conditioning and stunning views of Bathsheba
This cosy 2 bedroom cottage is located in the rustic village of Bathsheba St. Joseph. Beautiful vistas and a fresh Atlantic breeze welcome you to this peaceful area of Barbados. This is a surfers paradise, as you are directly in front of the surf break known as "Parlour" and a 2 min walk to the world famous "Soup Bowl". Although the generally rough Atlantic waters are not suitable for swimming, there are stunning rock pools that are very safe and offer a totally different experience. Ideal set up for couples, friends or family to enjoy a peaceful getaway, with the convenience of a minimart nearby, and numerous restaurants within walking distance. We recommend renting a car for easy commuting, but if you prefer not to, there is a bus stop located in front of the property.

This is a perfect surfers location. Beautiful surf directly across the street, the pictures are accurate, the neighbors are friendly and sitting on the porch watching the surf was heaven. It is not "fancy" - if you have a high maintenance American with you this will not be your rental, but if you want a perfect surf spot to enjoy the views and relax book it. The owner was accessible by What's app as was the car rental co. Be sure to stop for groceries before getting to Bathsheba (only a little market nearby very pricey) and walk to the local spots for meals (some are open on weekends only). We needed a car. On the island you will need GPS (google maps worked) - roads are not well marked. The owner of the VRBO set us up on a fabulous fishing trip - caught Wahoo, Mahi and Barracuda. Definitely recommend if you have the right group. We will be coming back.

About the host
Hosted by Bodie Rapson
Hi I'm Bodie, born and raised in Barbados to an English father and Barbadian mother. I have a strong passion for water sports and I run the island's top rated surf school Bodie's School of Surf. https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g1183194-d3494354-Reviews-Bodie_s_School_of_Surf-Oistins_Christ_Church_Parish_Barbados.html My entire life has been spent around tourism, so I enjoy meeting people from all over the world and sharing my local knowledge with visitors, in order to help them experience the true beauty of Barbados and have the best possible experience on our little rock.
Why they chose this property
The east coast is simply my favourite area on the island. There is a different energy to anywhere else on the island and the community spirit here, really shines through. Time spent on the east coast is always peaceful and relaxing, away from the hustle and bustle of the densely populated south and west coasts. The natural scenery, crisp Atlantic breezes and wild, untamed waters all come together to make a truly unforgettable experience. There are numerous tidal/rock pools that provide sheltered areas safe for dipping in the ocean, as well as numerous restaurants serving the best local cuisine, all within walking distance of the property. Other attractions such as botanical gardens, PEG farm and guided hikes are all within close proximity.
What makes this property unique
Unlike most properties on the east coast East View Cottage has airconditioned bedrooms and mosquito nets on all the doors and windows, providing a level of comfort, suitable for everyone. The kitchen is fully equipped, giving you a true home away from home feel and best of all is the proximity to the golden, sandy beaches of Bathsheba - literally footsteps from your front door :)
