The Great House, Barbados. Are you in need of a large and opulent spot for a tropical destination event? Perhaps you have a large group that wishes to gather in a place of elegance and casual style? If so, the stunning property known as The Great House is a fantastic solution. Comprised of two larger houses and several cottages and carriage houses, it sits along the coveted West Coast of Barbados and can accommodate a group of 30 or less in opulence and comfort.
A fully-staffed property, it features butlers for each of the houses, a boat captain to offer guided sails, and a private chef to prepare all meals. There is a full housekeeping team appearing daily, and the enormous property spreads out over more than two lush acres. There are tennis courts, direct beach access to the beachfront, and an array of activities supported on the water. From kayaking and surfing to snorkeling and boating, days on end can be enjoyed on or near the water.
The property also features beautifully landscaped grounds with a seemingly endless array of outdoor living spaces. There are gazebos for dining and for lounging, play areas with games for children and adults, and a spa treatment area.
The property features the main house or Great House, a Hillaby House, cottages, and carriage houses. The main house is where most of the gatherings will occur and it features the enormous pool area with an infinity-edge pool that leads the eye to the views beyond. There are multiple sundecks and a large, covered verandah nearby. There is a barbecue area with al fresco dining space, and an array of covered lounges.
Inside, there is a piano lounge, a home cinema, and many other casual spots to recline and savor the scenery. Taking design cues from the island, the various buildings lean towards pale palettes, natural materials, and classic furnishings to create a wonderfully appealing setting at all times.
The 12 bedrooms feature ensuite baths and most rooms open to the gardens, grounds, or terraces. All feature luxurious linens and a long list of amenities that make them idyllic retreats of their own.
When you are ready to create an unforgettable experience in Barbados, whether it is an event or a gathering of friends and family, The Great House offers a private, luxurious estate-like setting with the same attentive services of a world-class resort or hotel. It is sure to become a new and fast favorite.
