  Left on 04/20/2012 for a stay in March 2011
  
  

  staying at crossbov has been one of my best holidays ever. The house was just amazing, we where 9 girls and it never felt crowded at all. the rooms are so spacious and so delicat decorated and all with own bathroom.
  layout is perfect and you got everything you need and more. Lovely pool area where we also enjoyed barbecues at night. A beautiful view to the sea and overlokking a lovely golf course making the garden look even bigger. If you like a break from the sun you could enjoy a game of poole on the shadow side of the house, really nice. I so recommend a visit to this beatuiful house & place which blew me away :)

  Left on 03/23/2012 for a stay in April 2011
  
  

  Stayed at Crossbow Villa for 10 days early last year together with my wife and four teenage daughters.
  I cannot speak highly enough of the house, every thing was perfect , position, amenities, cleanliness, from the moment of arrival one cannot fail to be impressed.
  The staff are an absolute treasure and Orland the chef who can be hired on a daily basis if required was a Godsend.
  I recommend the property wholeheartily.
  We are planning toon go back next year.

  The villa and holiday was fantastic!

  Left on 03/20/2012 for a stay in February 2012
  
  

  From the day we arrived untill the day we left it was fabulous.
  
  The villa is beautiful and spread out with lovely gardens looking over the golf course at the back and beautiful sunset sea views at the front. Sitting on the verrandah with a cocktail or in the cold jacuzzi outside watching the sun going down was amazing!
  
  The villa has huge big bedrooms with sumptious furnishings. All the staff are very friendly and Orlando the cook is a must have. He did us some great Bbq's and dinners.
  
  Holetown is the nearest town, which has some good bars, a local traditional chattel shopping village and a great designer shopping centre with eating places and bars and a lovely beach.
  
  It was my first time to Barbados and would definetly recomend it as it has some beautiful beaches and friendly locals. Plus Crossbow Villa was the icing on the cake as it was 5 star!!!

  Outstanding

  Left on 03/18/2012 for a stay in February 2012
  
  

  We stayed at the villa with a group of friends and from the first moment it exceeded our expectations. From being met at the airport, the pre booking of the hire car and directions to the villa, everything was so easy.
  
  Upon arrival at the villa we met the fantastic staff consisting of the housekeeper (Polly) and the chef (Orlando) among others who really set the tone for our break and certainly matched the 5 star rating of this villa.
  
  Our first task was to see all of the facilities from the pool and cold tub (incl extra large sun beds!), through to the yoga hut, pool table and bar area. Although being part of a big group, choosing bedrooms was easy as each bedroom is of such a high standard and equally well equipped.
  
  Drinks on the verandah soon followed and the verandah soon became the central hub of holiday and our favourite place for meal times and chill out.
  
  The villa is Situated close to the vibrant local town called HoleTown which contains a number of friendly bars such as Lexys Piano Bar, local shops and chattel shopping village.
  
  Also nearby are great restaurants such as Lone Star and Champers which are must visit.
  
  You can be as active as you would like so swimming with turtles, jet ski, golf and tennis are all nearby.
  
  The local beaches such as Mullins and Gibbs are not only nearby, clean and provide great access to the crystal clear waters, they also boast great eating and drinking venues.
  
  This was our first visit to the Caribbean and we will be going back again next year and there is only one place we will be staying..Cross Bow Villa.
  
  Thank you to everyone for our great stay.
