Footprints

In our view

A modern and very striking contemporary beachfront villa, set on the fantastic Alleynes beach. Luxury modern living with stunning views of the Caribbean Sea.

Footprints is a contemporary villa that offers you the best of Barbados. Set on Alleynes Bay Beach on the island’s west-facing Platinum Coast, the 5 bedroom villa is boxy in the best way, with several stories of balconies, terraces and floor-to-ceiling windows that open to the water. With 5 bedrooms and 5 ½ bathrooms, Footprints features approximately 6,500 sq. ft. of covered living space, including a 1,300 sq. ft. elevated master suite with uninterrupted views out to the horizon. The property can be rented together with Footprints North Cottage or Footprints South Cottage to accommodate up to 16 guests in 8 bedrooms. Footprints sets the standard for a new breed of sleek, modern yet relaxed island living that will appeal to visitors looking for a cool and relaxed island vibe.

The villa’s interiors are finished in a neutral palette of white and tan, creating a soothing atmosphere that emphasises the vibrant greens and blues of the surrounding trees and water. In spite of the toned-down colour scheme, Footprints still feels warm and inviting, thanks to natural wood floors, enough classic roll-arm sofas for everyone and organic accents like coral and a leaf-shaped pendant light. The fully equipped, all-white kitchen is both contemporary and charming, with sleek, flat-fronted cabinets and a farmhouse-style table used as a breakfast bar. The 5 bedrooms at Footprints feature en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning. Many open to balconies or terraces, so you can fall asleep to the sound of the ocean or feel the breeze first thing in the morning. Like the other living areas, the bedrooms use a restrained colour scheme and plenty of natural texture for a luxe, layered look that’s still relaxed. The villa even has its own fitness and media rooms which are air conditioned for your comfort, and the services of the staff are all included in your stay.

Though the villa is located on Alleynes Bay Beach and is just a short stroll to the Lone Star restaurant, it is just 1 mile from the beach at Reeds Bay and 2 miles from Sandy Lane Beach. Golfers will want to book a tee time at Royal Westmoreland Golf Course, just over 2 miles away, and the Sandy Lane Country Club course, 3.5 miles away. Take an afternoon or evening to stroll through Holetown, 1.5 miles away, Speightstown, 4 miles away or Bridgetown, 10 miles away.
