We are offering the opportunity for a maximum of only 3 or 4 people to become equity sharing, co-owners of this fantastic investment property. The villa is situated in one of the best locations in Barbados, where prime property values will rise further to catch up with the much more expensive famous West Coast.

We will continue to retain a significant ownership percentage ourselves and also continue to fully manage & maintain the villa on behalf of all co-owners.

If you, your company or your pension fund have funds available to invest offshore in a single 'blue chip' Barbados property which is owned 'offshore' by a Limited Company, please contact us for more information.

About John & Marjorie Davis

John & Marjorie are semi-retired parents & grandparents residing in England.

John is a Chartered Engineer with a career in major manufacturing companies followed by management consulting – specialising in directing major business performance improvement projects across the world for international Blue-Chip companies.

Marjorie is a professional ice dance skater. At only 10 she was the youngest ever to represent Great Britain at ice dancing, and at 16 became Professional British & World Ice Dance Champion! Later, in business she was MD of an Executive Recruitment Consultancy.

They first visited Barbados for 1 week in 1994, staying at Sam Lords Castle resort in St Philip on the SE Coast. They loved Barbados and the local Bajans so much they returned the following year & were married on Sam Lord’s beach. They have visited more than 60 times since then and decided to invest in Idyllic Villa in 2001. They built a second villa ‘Beach Haven’ on the Caribbean West Coast in 2006 which is also available for rent.

They are both very particular and very practical hands on people, and have built / refurbished the villas to a very high standard. They are both always kept by the housekeepers in an excellent, clean & well maintained condition. They fully manage the property maintenance and lettings themselves – visiting 3 or 4 times a year to keep everything ship shape – as well as having regular vacations there!

They have many strong friendship links with local residents, so they can introduce guests into the ‘behind the scenes’ Bajan local life if they wish to be more adventurous & involved.

John & Marjorie Davis purchased this villa in 2001
Why John & Marjorie Davis chose Long Bay

Idyllic Villa is one of 3 privately owned villas on Coral Point Estate, built on an outcrop at the end of Sam Lords South beach – the beach used by Marriott’s for their weekly themed Shipwreck Party nights. The location is so absolutely stunning it cannot be fully appreciated by description or photos – it has to be visited to be believed. Many visitors, who know the island well, have said this has to be the best villa location in the whole of Barbados. It has been rented for many purposes ranging from corporate / political events & business meetings to romantic sojourns, weddings and family vacations.

The private gated estate provides privacy and seclusion in a quieter area of Barbados – well away from the tourist centres. However it is only 12 minutes drive from the airport & just a mile along the coast from the world famous Crane Resort which is renowned for having one of the top 10 beaches in the world.

The SE corner of Barbados is renowned for its refreshing cooling breeze which is hardly felt elsewhere, and St Philip has the least rainfall of all the Barbados parishes, as many clouds pass overhead & don’t start to rain until further inland. With Sam Lords now derelict and closed, the local beautiful beaches are almost always deserted – This truly is the perfect location for a quiet ‘get away from it all’ relaxing vacation in Barbados.

What makes this villa unique

OFFSHORE INVESTMENT

This prime beach front property is wholly owned by an offshore Ltd company, registered in the BVI. It was specifically established to legally own this sole prime property in Barbados. Purchasing the shares with offshore funds, simply transfers offshore cash to an offshore investment in property ownership, via a simple offshore transaction. Property values may well have bottomed out & this may be the right time to reinvest cash into future capital growth potential and own a fantastic property in the process! Please contact us if full or partial ownership is of interest to you.

Wonderful villa

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Sep 24, 2008
  • Stayed: May 2007
My husband and I along with 2 other couples stayed at Idyllic Villa in May of 2007 for a week. The beauty of this villa and the scenery surrounding it is unbelievable. You can't even to begin to describe it. We thought it would be beautiful based on the pictures we saw on the internet, but the pictures don't even do it justice!! You just have to see it to believe it. The price for this villa is very, very reasonable considering all that it has to offer. We all plan to return to Barbados in a few years and would not even consider staying anywhere but at Idyllic. Junie was great and Scamp (the dog) became our best companion for the week. We loved him so and hated to leave the little fellow. The owners were very easy to deal with and were most cooperative. It was the greatest vacation we have ever taken. Just book it -- you will be glad that you did!!

Thanks a million for all your help.

Much appreciated.

Idyllic Villa is surely an apt name!!

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Oct 12, 2011
  • Stayed: Oct 2011
Idyllic Villa is surely an apt name! Secluded location, stunning breathtaking views, un-describable, and pictures don’t do it justice.

Villa is perfect for a relaxing break away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, romantic getaway, or family gathering etc. If you want night life, not for you, however we stayed there but drove into St Lawrence Gap/Town for clubs when required.

Stayed on the property in Oct 2011 and also held our small wedding ceremony on the beach below the property and then the reception on the property, Idyllic, couldn’t have asked for a better location.

Villa is very spacious and is still not cramped if 8 people are staying there. Property and furnishing in good order, clean, amenities in working order. 4th bedroom may need a little updating, safe in a room not working, but overall nothing of major concern.

If you plan on travelling around the island it is recommended to rent a car, if not there is a local bus which will take you into Bridgetown (runs 1 per hour). Taxis are available but from the villa you have to phone book and therefore may have to wait a while. Within walking distance there is the Tropical Winds hotel which has a restaurant for cooked food (however I didn’t actually eat there) and there is also a convenience store close by for a quick shop for essentials.

The sea in that area is not recommended for swimming as it can get rather rough, however there are other beaches close by which are more suitable if you want to swim. There is also a communal pool on the property which is utilized by the 3 villas. The spa although not heated is perfect to cool off during the day, and stare up at the stars at night.

Housekeeper Sherri was very helpful and accommodating and went out of her way to assist. Property owners were good/fast with their correspondence.

Would highly recommend this property, and will be back for another stay, hopefully in the not to distance future.

Fabulous Getaway

  • Submitted: Jan 5, 2011
  • Stayed: May 2010
We came together as 7 close friends and enjoyed a fabulous 10 says at your Villa. The peaceful atmosphere away from everything was perfect. We loved strolling along your beautiful sandy beaches and amazing views.

Junie is a treasure!! We loved visiting with her and our every need was attended to. She really made our visit feel like we were visiting old friends.

Barbados is a beautiful island and amazingly friendly culture. We loved checking out all the local haunts and of course the known landmarks. Harrison Caves is a must see along with Orchid World and the Wild Animal park. So much to see not enough time to do it all. Definitely make a trip to Bathsheba and don't miss the Oysten's Fish Fry!!

I would come back in a minute!!

Viva Barbados

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Oct 25, 2010
  • Stayed: Sep 2010
This was our 6th visit to Barbados having stayed before in Hotels and two other Rental Villas. This has to be the very best location for the money if you are seeking a relaxing quiet holiday. The villa is very nice but could do with some slight modernisation to the bathrooms. The house was very well kept by Juni the maid, with a constant flow of clean towels and bed linen. A car is essential. We are in our seventies and visited with our son, his wife and two teenage boys and my sons mother in law. Everyone in all the age groups absolutely enjoyed the Holiday. OK for people with disabilities if the owners carry out some very minor modifications We intend to return next year.
