White Sands is a lovely 12 unit duplex condominium development located across from the beach in the quaint and historical town of Speightstown to the North of Barbados.

White Sands Unit G3 is a secure and fully furnished two double bedroom, one and a half bathroom holiday rental with everything provided to make your stay a home away from home. This apartment also boasts two patios with beach views and air conditioned bedrooms.

This holiday rental apartment features Cable TV, DVD player, free wifi broadband internet access and is within walking distance to shops, supermarkets, cafes and fruit vendors in Speightstown.

The calm azure waters of the Caribbean sea are literally a few steps from your villa and a leisurely stroll through this quaint port will reveal a Barbados from a by gone era, where locals are friendly and helpful, informative. If you head left from out your front door, walk along the oceanfront boardwalk that will lead you to the esplanade, the fish market and past several examples of old Barbadian architecture.

There is a newly restored merchants villa towards the town center, which has been turned into an entertaining interactive museum to commemorate Speightown’s prosperous past. Sundays here are the quietest time with the only activity being the churches and the small local pubs that open for lunch.

Amenities

SHOPPING

There are several shops located in the town center, including supermarkets, banks, pharmacies and several high end interior designer establishments. What is great about Speightstown is the traditional open air markets and the hucksters where fresh fruit and vegetables can be found in abundance. You are also likely to pass several local artisans plying their wares on the bustling streets.

EATING

Speightstown has a great range of restaurants which are within a 5 minute walk from White Sands condo. There is The Orange Street Grocer, where you can get great salads, stone baked pizza and a fine wine collection. A more local cuisine can be experienced at the Fisherman’s Pub or Wave Rider and Cassereep Cafe is just a little further down the road and has a varied menu, including their infamous curry roti. For finer dining, Mangoes by the Sea is an established restaurant that is located on the southern end of Speightstown. However, the PRC Bakery which is a minute walk away from White Sands is a piece of real Bajan nostalgia that bakes turn overs, jam puffs, lead pipes, salt bread buns, meat rolls and coconut rolls. They are open every day and everything is fresh and baked on site.

NEARBY ATTRACTIONS

White Sands is in a great location with all amenities within walking distance, so you do not necessarily need to hire a car. There is a bus stand nearby and taxis are available from any of the nearby hotels. That said, a car is a great asset and an attached secure gated parking is provided for Whitesands guests. There are also polo grounds and golf courses minutes away. Almond Beach Resorts, where day passes can be obtained and the infamous Port St Charles are further north while Holetown is 15 minutes drive to the south and offers several popular restaurants and bars. In addition, Earthworks Pottery Complex is 20 minutes away with an art gallery, craft, Batiks and local delicacies at the café which offers spectacular views from its hillside location.
