    The most wonderful stay at this beautiful villa

    From the moment we arrived and were greeted by the House Keeper Cheryl to the moment we left we loved every single minute. The house is just as beautiful as the images online show if not even more so. The bedrooms are light and airy with fantastic air conditioning, the fully equipped kitchen is perfect and looks out on the spectacular view over the Caribbean Sea. Then the outside living area is just fabulous, there are so many areas to sit and enjoy the view, whether it be at the bar, the the hot tub and chilling in the sofa area. The location of the villa is perfect, the local beach, Reeds Bay is great for swimming and has a beautiful sandy beach. The villa is a great location for foodies, just a short drive to Lonestar and Seashed, as well as many of the other mut visit restaurants. We would have absolutely no doubt in booking this villa again, it is simply paradise and the perfect getaway location. Thanks again! The Grayson's x

    Breathtaking Villa

    Breathtaking villa on the beautiful West Coast. The open plan exterior lounge and dining area leading to the sun terrace overlooking the ocean was simply incredible. Stunning interior design throughout made this a very special stay. Located by Reeds Bay, a really lovely quiet beach with a crystal clear sea, absolute paradise. Well supported by the team from Young Estates who planned all of our dining and entertainment needs. Highly recommended

    Only stayed here for a week having been at another property for the previous 2, and my only regret is we didn't choose to stay at Solaris for longer. We absolutely loved it here - contemporary, brilliant location, well equipped, great hosts. Genuinely couldn't have asked for more, and we will start saving straightaway for next year!

    We were the first guests at the newly renovated Solaris Beach House and were wowed by this property. It is even better than the pics and the housekeeper, Cheryl, is a treasure. Any need or want you can think of will be satisfied to perfection. It is such a relaxing place but close to great shopping, restaurants, and unexpectedly marvelous grocery store, Massy's. You will not be disappointed at Solaris Beach House and we will return.

    Lovely relaxed and stylish beachside villa with an amazing housekeeper

    We have just returned from a wonderful 14-night stay at Camden Nook for our grown up family of 6 adults. Having visited Barbados many times over the years and stayed in 5 different villas, I think that we all agreed that this was the best property we have rented yet and we have already booked for a 3-week return next year. The villa is light and airy with plenty of room for everyone, furnishings are stylish and contemporary without feeling overly ostentatious, good aircon in the bedrooms that works properly, great outdoor space to eat and relax whilst looking at that great view of the Carribean only a few feet away, not many places where you get to lay in a hot tub and watch the sunset over the Carribean ocean every night! But the very best thing about our stay was our wonderful housekeeper Cheryl, I don't know how much you guys pay her but she is worth her weight in gold! Cheryl would arrive every morning with a bright cheery "Hello!!"and a big smile, if required she would cook all of our meals and whilst we didn't need her to cook all of our meals she did amaze us with her Bajan hot fishcakes, Chicken Roti wraps, Bajan bakes and chocolate mousse. As well as keeping the villa spotless and doing any washing twice a week her best attribute was just her lovely happy smiley nature, she was always happy to chat whilst she worked and felt like an extended family member come the end of the holiday. Cheryl also had a friend with watersports eqt. and hired a couple of jetskis that were delivered to the beach, we also hired a couple of paddleboards from someone else for the duration as we wanted to make full use of the big blue swimming pool at the bottom of the steps, word of caution here as dependant on the sea conditions that prevail , the height of the sand at the bottom of the steps to the beach can alter by as much as 2 foot, so when the sand is high it is a perfect step from the bottom step onto a lovely sandy beach, but when the sand is low there is a 2-foot drop onto a few small rocks that require careful navigation for a few steps until you reach the sand of the beach, no biggie but small kids would find it tricky. See that the villa is up for sale so just waiting for that lottery win to roll in and we will be buying it !!

    The house was immaculate, he setting picture perfect and our housekeeper, Cheryl, an absolute delight. From arriving in Barbados to sadly leaving we had a fantastic stay and would thoroughly recommend Camden Nook asa place to stay. Easy access to Hometown and Speightstown, wonderful restaurants nearby and a beach at the "bottom of the garden".

    A fantastic villa in a great location with service to match

    Camden Nook was ideal for us and exceeded our expectations. The villa was beautifully presented and the welcome given by Cheryl, our housekeeper, was superb. The location couldn't have been better and with two lovely bays to choose from when you walk out of the villa, you really are spoilt. Reeds Bay was however, our favourite with a superb beach and calm sea and very few people. Cheryl really made our holiday thoroughly relaxing. She was so helpful and very happy to cook for us. It was great to get to know her whilst we all sat and enjoyed her local dishes. Fortunately our three children said that they would prefer that Cheryl cook for us rather than eat out and we couldn't disagree and were not going to argue! There were plenty of watersports available and you could be picked up straight off the beach. We swam with the turtles and snorkelled reefs and the wreck on a couple of occaisions with Daniel (Summer Sports Watersports - 230 1673) who has a boat in the bay in front of the villa. He was excellent and we would certainly recommend him. All in all a fantastic and memorable holiday that the whole family enjoyed. Nick and Celia thank you.

    Beautiful beachfront Villa

    Lovely beachfront Villa with plunge pool. This was our third stay at Camden Nook and it just keeps getting better. Lovely positioned plunge pool jacuzzi overlooking the sea. We had lovely lunches made for us and enjoyed the Sonos music facility. Camden Nook is well placed for access to the main restaurants on the west coast and we visited Lone Star, the Cliff, Tides all being great beach front restaurants and Nishi in Holetown a fantastic Sushi and Pie restaurant!. Also we liked Lemongrass (Asian/Thai) and Pepenero (Italian) in The Limegrove being great value. We did water sports where we were picked up from villa. Best trip being Calabaza catamaran cruise along with nights to Harbour lights. 1st street on Sundays being a great music street party night with street food also and one love bar serving very cheap drinks. Tuesdays and Thursday band night at Bar in Chattel village. Also went to Garrison savannah for races which was great. Thanks to Nick and Celia for letting us stay in your lovely villa.

    Camden nook is amazing! We just returned from a week visit. The home is much larger than the pictures appear. We walked the beach and our best snorkeling was done right outside our door. Had dinner almost every night on the large open private patio. Nick was so easy and great to work with. Wendy was our housekeeper and made our stay extra special with her island tour guide help. We hope to be back !

    The villa is located in the perfect position, five minutes from Speightstown to the north and Holetown to the south. All the best restaurant's are within a twenty minute drive, The Cliff, the Lone Star, Daphne's and Tides. The Limes shopping centre in Holetown is only a 5 minute drive, this is also the same for the Supercentre supermarket which is situated opposite the Limes. The villa is situated on one of the best beaches in Barbados, it is quiet and unspoilt , we were able to swim with turtles just outside the villa gates !! We also had regular early morning visits from green monkeys running along the fence and through the garden. Not forgetting to mention the villa comes with the best housekeeper and cook. Rosemary is a truly remarkable lady and made our family feel very much at home from day one.

    Camden Nook ! What a place ! we had a fantastic time we swam and snorkelled on our own reef outside the villa from sunrise to sun set, the kids had the time of their lives just playing on the beach all day. The villa garden and deck area became our living room we sat out each evening and took in the tranquil sky's with the accompaniment of the the sea breaking on the beach at the bottom of the garden. We swam with the turtles and took jet skis along to Wholetown. The local fishermen and inhabitants where very friendly and kind to us and helped us with making deals on the boat trips and jet ski hire with the local beach vendors. We bought fish from there local market and fruit from the stall next door all at very reasonable prices. At evening times we sat out on the porch drinking Rosemary's rum punch, which is the best and we drank many bottles. Rosemary is the house matron and she makes the best rum punch in Barbados she is a very kind and thoughtful women who made our stay most happy and memorable, she invited us into her family and into her church and we took her into our hearts, she made the most fantastic evening meals which would have cost a fortune in the restaurants further down the beach. The house manager Andrew is a very kind man who give us much information on where to go and to eat and he made sure we had everything we wanted and that our stay most pleasant. We married on the beach just out side the garden gate Thank you to Nick and Celia for allowing us to sample paradise. We will return soon Sonja and Norman

    GREAT LOCATION , SECURE ,GOOD FACILITIES

    Stayed in this lovely villa February 2014,party of six adults ,previous holidays in hotels only .It was lovely,secure,clean ,everything to make your holiday perfect . Right on the beach great for snorkeling/swimming and lovely Sunsets. We have booked again for February 2015. Rosemary's rum punch and rum cake were a hit with everyone. Lots of places to eat out or just chill at the villa with the barbecue, glass of wine watching the sun go down. In the unlikely event a problem occurs, Andrew is on hand to promptly sort it. Thank's to Nick and Celia for sharing their lovely villa with us.

    Perfection!

    We stayed here for our honeymoon and could not have asked for more. A beautiful villa, superbly maintained, in a wonderful location. We were very impressed with Andrew the property manager, but special mention must go to Rosemary the housekeeper who was an absolute gem. And her Rum Punch has to be one of our highlights!! The villa is just perfect and we enjoyed every aspect of our stay but sitting on the decking listening to the waves as the sun went down was amazing. To be able to walk directly onto the beach from the villa is soooo cool and to wander just a few minutes down the beach and be able to grab a beer was great. The villa is very private and very few people used the beach in front of us so we felt like we were in our own little piece of Heaven. We can't wait to go back!! Thanks Nick, Celia, Andrew and Rosemary - we had the best time!!!

    Camden Nook Nov 2010

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Camden Nook and have already booked for 2011. Brilliantly situated right on the beach, and as we were still on UK time, the early mornings on the decking were a delight, followed by a very refreshing dip in the sea at the bottom of the garden. Extremely comfortable, spacious, and easy to use all the entertainment facilities within. Rosemary very friendly, looked after us and went beyond expectations, educating us with local culinary delights and provided a great insight to the history of the Caribbean, which was particularly valuable as Michele doing a module on Caribbean literature. We hired a car rather than use the local bus services as this gave flexibility to explore, and try out the majority of local restaurants!!! A particular favourite was the Lone Star, which is walking distance along the beach. Looking forward to Nov 2011. N&M

    About the host

    Hosted by Celia Sawyer

    Host profile image
    Celia and Nick together with her family they fell in love with the island of Barbados in the early 2000's. We have a great love affair with the island and it is the first place we all loved to be together, with its great climate, restaurants and beaches.

    Why they chose this property

    Solaris is midway between Holetown and Spietstown on the West Coast of Barbados. With great restaurants such as The Lone Star and the Sea Shed only minutes away and the facilities of Holetown a maximum of a ten-minute drive, who could ask for more? Nothing you need is far away, and yet it feels so private.

    What makes this property unique

    Designed to be bright and airy, Solaris emphasises outdoor living. When we designed the house, we wanted the bring the inside out and do away with conventional living spaces. The villa exudes positive energy, with the entire area being usable. It is such a delightful place to spend time. It is so relaxing. We often only go as far as the beach for days.
