Point of View is set in spectacular
gardens on the prestigious Sandy Lane Estate on
the West Coast (the Platinum Coast) of Barbados.
This secluded garden house has been designed
in the relaxed style of the old colonial plantation
houses. Natural fabrics, marble floors and the
use of local coral stone enhance the feeling
of cool luxury. Point of View is centred on
a shell shaped swimming pool with panoramic
views over the Sandy Lane Golf Course and the
Caribbean Sea. This tranquil garden is a haven
for tropical birds and plants. Bourgainvillea,
plumbago and hibiscus nestle amongst the oleander
and palm trees. When lit at night, they are
nothing less than magical.

 There
is a fully trained staff of a cook/housekeeper, maid/laundress
and two gardeners. Food and drinks are not included
in the rate for the house, however the housekeeper
will discuss your preferences and will shop and cook
accordingly. (Receipts are kept and payment is due
once the purchases have been made.) Babysitters can
be provided on request.
As part of the Sandy Lane Owners' Association, Point
of View has its own cabaña on the exclusive
Sandy Lane Beach, a ¼ of a mile from the house.
All types of water sport are available from the Sandy
Lane Hotel and golf and tennis are on hand within
a few hundred yards. Holetown, one mile away, has
good shops and supermarket facilities. The capital,
Bridgetown, is 5 miles from Sandy Lane and the international
is 12 miles to the South East. Facilities also available
elsewhere on the island include sailing, surfing,
scuba diving, parasailing, golf, tennis, horse racing,
bird watching, polo, cricket and rally driving. There
are many musical events to enjoy throughout the year.

Barbados is the southeastern island of the Caribbean.
Just 21 miles long and 14 miles wide, the island rises
to 1,115 feet (Mount Hillaby). Daytime temperatures
vary between 27°C in January and to 32°C in
August.
Having been discovered by the Portuguese in 1536
and claimed by the English in 1625, Barbados has a
fascinating and colourful history. With a long colonial
legacy, the island's people, Bajans, are friendly
and hospitable.
