Astra sits on a high coral cliff above Foul Bay Beach on Barbados’ southeast coast. Surrounded by lush gardens and ocean views, this three-bedroom home is ideal for any tranquility-seeking travelers.

In addition to abundant gardens and a manicured lawn, Astra also has a 65-foot long lap pool that seems to flow into the sea. The surrounding deck has two gazebos: one for relaxing and one for cooking. The relaxing gazebo has screens and loungers, and the cooking gazebo has a bar, fridge, sink, and BBQ grill. The gazebos, pool, and poolside bathroom make it easy to stay outside from sunrise to sunset. Astra is an excellent example of island architecture, with shuttered windows on four sides and a wide veranda along the east and south side of the house. There’s WiFi throughout the home, and the living area features a cable TV, DVD player, and a CD player for more entertainment. The kitchen sits near the dining table and has a breakfast bar, standard appliances, a coffeemaker, and exterior access. The villa also has a washing machine and dryer. Astra’s three bedrooms are perfect for two couples or a family, with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The first suite has a king bed, the second has two twins, and the third has a queen.

Astra offers casual comfort, seclusion, and convenience to one of the least-crowded beaches on Barbados. It’s a 10-minute drive to the airport and 30 minutes from Bridgetown. The weekly rate includes housekeeping six days a week.
