Overview

Sitting high along Moonshine Ridge on the West Coast of Barbados, Above The Clouds lives up to its name in every sense. This stunning six-bedroom villa has panoramic views over the Caribbean Sea that genuinely have to be seen to be believed, a backdrop that sets the tone for an extraordinary holiday from the moment you arrive.

The villa's open-plan living area is bright, airy and immediately welcoming, with those sweeping sea views following you from every angle. Sliding glass doors lead out to the large pool deck, making the transition between inside and out feel completely effortless. The pool itself is the real heart of the villa, surrounded by sun loungers and shaded by umbrellas, with the entire West Coast laid out before you. A bar and grill area makes poolside lunches a pleasure, while the large outdoor dining table is the perfect setting for long al fresco dinners as the sun goes down. Below the deck, a quieter terrace offers a more intimate spot which is ideal for a good book or a sundowner as the sky turns pink.

Back inside, a well-equipped kitchen sits alongside the living area, fitted with top-of-the-line appliances for those who enjoy cooking in. There is also a dedicated entertainment room on the ground floor which is perfect for a movie night when you feel like staying in.

The main house offers four generous bedroom suites, each with an en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet. The ground floor suite has the added bonus of direct pool deck access, while the three upper-level suites each open onto their own private terrace with wonderful views over the ocean and the island's lush interior. The upper terrace, arguably the finest spot in the house, is the best place to watch one of Barbados' legendary sunsets, cocktail in hand. 

A short stroll from the main house, a self-contained two-bedroom cottage with kitchenette is the perfect option for additional guests looking for a little extra privacy, connected to the gardens by a scenic footpath.

The villa slo comes with a covered garage and a complimentary golf cart make getting around the resort a breeze. As part of the Apes Hill community, guests also have access to an impressive range of amenities including an 18-hole championship golf course, tennis, padel tennis, hiking trails and on-site dining, and when the beach calls, the exclusive Fairmont Royal Pavilion Beach Club in Holetown is just a short drive away.
