Tiny Home Retreat Near Beach- Marsh Mellow Cottage

This cozy cottage is the perfect spot for couples and solo travelers looking to stay in a residential neighborhood in the beautiful island of Barbados. You'll be tucked away just 1km from the beach and can explore the island using this cottage as your home away from home! We would be happy to help you plan the perfect holiday.

The cottage was designed to be very open and airy with shutters for windows instead of glass panes, and there is an additional ceiling fan and A/C in the bedroom to keep you cool in the Barbados sunshine. The open plan living area features a very comfortable sitting area and TV with a ceiling fan, and the kitchen is stocked with all the appliances and kitchenware you'll need on vacation. The bedroom has a comfortable queen-sized bed, A/C, ceiling fan, closet space and an en-suite bathroom. The bathroom is unique with an indoor/outdoor shower that has two shower heads, and a beautiful shell and stone vanity.

The cottage is located on the "platinum" West Coast of Barbados, but is tucked away in a neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle. There may be some neighbourhood noises heard from time to time (roosters, dogs, etc). The beach is located just 1km away, and further down the coast are restaurants, bars, and shopping centers. Whilst the cottage is in walking distance of the beach / main coast road, the return trip will be uphill.

The property manager is just a phone call away should you need assistance. Please know that we can assist you with anything you need to make this an amazing vacation from the get-go: dining recommendations, snorkel excursions, island tours.. and more are just some of the things we can assist with.

Complimentary housekeeping services are offered 1 day a week.

Please note: There is construction ongoing next door. As such, we have discounted the rates. Unfortunately they have not given us a schedule at this time.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Conveniences include a phone, as well as a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as concierge services.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

The location is close to drive to local areas and beaches. We also had monkeys on the property one morning which was lovely to see. We enjoyed the outdoor shower/ bathroom concept but I would advise that this does mean the bathroom often has unexpected guests - frogs, cockroaches, milipedes etc. There were some issues upon check in with the cleanliness of the bedding & towels. Once we spoke with the property manager on this, it was rectified & they were responsive to our issues. I would say that the photos online are quite dated and the property is no longer in the good condition depicted - it requires a refurbishment. There are no windows in the property (aside from in the front door), the rest of the property is only wooden shutters. This does make it hard to keep the AC cool air inside when you want to let light into the property & can be noisey with local wildlife in the night time.

Disappointing arrival

I arrived after a long trip to London late in the evening to find the apartment very dirty and have not been cleaned since last guests stayed . Two hours later the apartment manager , very apologetic arranged for a cleaner who came that night and the morning after . The team tried to make amends but basically the cottage is shabby and the whole place is grubby and needs a good lick of paint. The photos on the web site were taken some time ago. The floor was old and very badly marked so it always looked grubby . There is no cleaning products or brush in the cottage so its impossible to keep clean but they did finally send me a brush . Half way through the 10 day stay we had no hot water with very low pressure dur to leak on the road for three days . The shutters are dirty broken and the shower area is in need of a good revamp .There is long standing dirt in the bathroom area around the toilet and hand basin . Every day we averaged 4 hours sleep only due to Cockerels and Dogs waking up the area at 4 am . Most days we found worms .frogs or bigger insects on the floor. Some people may love this but we were very tired at the end of the trip . The location is very good and only a short drive to the beach . As I mentioned the property manager tried to make my stay better for me but the end of the day the owner of the property needs to take the property off the Vrbo sight until he updates this property . The sister cottage , which is identical to this cottage is now being revamped so I think this sums everything up . There was very limited dishes eg so salad dishes . I wanted to move out on my arrival and did call Vrbo team to arrange this but my daughter felt as the location was so nice we should just grin and bear it. I would not recommend this place to any of my friends .

Water, Support, Barking and Cockeril Challenged but Charming

This is a charming small place. It is one of 2 gate/guest suites to the main house. It is half-way up Crick Hill, which is steep. We always drove anywhere. There was no hot water at all. The cold-water pressure was also very low, making a shower a dry challenge. We had to shower at a friend's villa or at the beach. We also had no access to the safe until the management came to fix it 5 days ingo a 10 day stay. The neighbours' dogs barked until 1am and the Cockerels woke us up at 5pm. On the plus side, there was washing up liquid, kitchen paper towels, ice trays and a useful washer dryer. The aircon worked fine. The water was an issue. There was enough to get by, but not also to shower. We were not bothered by the noise, but others might be. The outside shower is great with 2 shower heads...if only there was water enough to get wet.

Fabulous

This property is perfect for a couple looking for a private and independent holiday. We rented a car but if you don't the main road is a short walk down the hill where the bus stop is. The management team were very helpful and so friendly. The place was spotless and the outdoor shower area was amazing!! It was close to great beaches and Speightstown just a short distance away for groceries. This was a perfect fit for our anniversary trip.
