This vacation was the best vacation our family has ever had. The staff was AMAZING and made the villa alila a home away from home . I REALLY want to go back, I am hoping to in a few years,. Isle blue was amazing and I would absolutely recommend them to any group of friends or family so that they can get a resort experience on a more personal level and specifically.... I would recommend Alila, as the staff that comes with the villa were what really made our vacation a wonderful memory❤️

We have just spent an amazing week at Villa Alila. The Villa is beautiful with gorgeous gardens and amazing pool. The photos do not do the villa justice. However it is the staff at the villa that really impressed us. Jasmine and Natasha kept the villa spotless and ensured we had a vacation where we truly did nothing. They even did our laundry so we came back with all clean clothes!

Chef Paul cooked delicious meals for us and he was so flexible with the dishes and the likes and dislikes of our group. We asked to try Bajan food and it was great to try something new and acquire new recipes and knowledge. We had really delicious, home cooked dishes. Breakfasts were a masterpiece, a feast which we managed to finish every time. We also appreciated the level of flexibility of Jasmine and Paul as we didn't stick to the same schedule but they always moved mealtimes around to fit with us.

The Villa also comes with a beach Cabana at Sandy Lane beach - bliss. The most relaxing vacation ever!

We loved every minute of our stay in Villa Alila in Barbados - we truly felt like it is to be part of the Royal Family. We cannot fault the accommodation and the staff and the location. We have totally fallen in love with Barbados and will return.

The Fantastic Villa is perched on the top of the hill which encourages a gentle breeze most of the day, the staff who were on site from 8 in the morning until 8 in the evening were very friendly nothing was to much trouble for them, Paul the chef makes a mean Rum Punch which was enjoyed on the Beach at the Sandy Lane Resort there is a private Beach Hut which houses a fridge there are immaculate wc facilities a private bar everything you could need we traveled with 3 young children so made good use of the buckets and spades, even the beach boys that looked after the sunbeds were a credit to the tourist industry in Barbados. we are frequent visitors to the island and have experienced probably all types of accommodation from posh hotels to all inclusive and apartments but this is the way to live, possibly only downside was having to shop for meals which Paul expertly turned into fine cuisine dishes. We managed to catch 5 Tuna fishing with a local lad from the beach near to the Surf side Bar which we then enjoyed for several meals. Would return in a heartbeat lets hope theirs time.

We're back from our stay at Alila only 4 days, and given the chance, we'd turn on our heels and go right back. Alila is everything you see in the pictures, and more. Surrounded by THE most lush, fabulous landscaping, this villa is magical, serene and perfect to the last tiny detail. From the substantial gate to the incredible front door, to the outdoor breezeway surrounded by koi ponds, to the beautiful indoor/outdoor living and dining rooms, to the infinity edge mosaic pool overlooking the 'jungle' to the separate gazebo, media room, air conditioned 'suites' and massive, incredible master bedroom suite/floor, there was no detail overlooked here. Like a miniature 5 diamond hotel, Alila sparkles from every angle day to night. If there was a flaw, I'd find it; but there was none. The "more" here are the staff: our Chef (Paul) and Housekeeper (Jasmine) were there when we needed them, and discretely not there when we didn't. They anticipated every move, Paul even coming to the beach (several minutes away) with trays of food for us, with a giant smile on his face. We took a few walks through Sandy Lane Estates to get a peek at other villas, but none compared to Alila. NONE. I could go on and on. We'll be going back...not sure when, but once you've seen Alila...well...

The online description was very good however on arriving and staying at the villa there were many features that could not be described on the web site. It is very peaceful and welcoming given the architecture and the furnishings and art items. The pool area and outdoor eating area are truly a major plus.
