Great location and beautiful private pool area

My wife and I just completed a great 10 night stay...most important features for us were the proximity to Holetown beach,restaurants and groceries, ten minutes on foot or 5 minutes by car, and the very beautiful and private pool area, exclusive to us during our stay. This basement apartment is spacious, a bit dim in the bedrooms, and perhaps best suited to two adults and children. The property manager Barbara is very helpful and responsive to communications. The neighbourhood is exceptionally quiet both day and night.Gary and Elizabeth

Holiday in paradise

We had the most blissful holiday staying at Diamond Oasis and can’t wait to hopefully return again next year! The apartment was clean and perfect for our family of three, the pool was a treat and the location was perfect for us. Barbara’s communication and hospitality was A and the welcome package of food was a real help and very thoughtful. Overall we would give Barbara’s hospitality and her beautiful accommodation a 10/10 review and would definitely return.

Nice quiet property short drive from everything holetown has to offer

We had a lovely stay. The property has 3 units and the garden apartment was setup in such a way that you felt like you had the place to yourself. The side gate is just for you. The pool is just for you. The lounge chairs are just for you. The side yard is just for you. Very well thought out. The hostess is above and the other guest unit is on the other side and we never noticed either! Quiet was the most important for us and we enjoyed the quiet of the neighborhood and the house. There is AC in the bedrooms and was good. Parked the car just outside on the street. Spent most of our days at the pool or at the folkstone marine sanctuary 10min by car with plenty of parking. Apparently the unit gets a lot of repeat bookings and I can see why!

Fabulous hideaway a few hundred metrea from centre of Holetown

Lovely apartment with all that we needed for a 10 night stay. Barbara, the host, was kind and helpful to us throughout. Only two minutes drive to the centre of Holetown, with a wide variety of restaurants and shops to choose from. This is a perfect place for a couple or small family to stay, hghly recommended. We had an emergency at the end of our stay, after we had left, and Barbara was kindness itself in helping us resolve it. The pool and sunbathing area was well-used by us. The local braches were also marvellous.

Diamond oasis beautiful

Another stay at the beautiful diamond oasis...we stayed 3 weeks this time.We are in our late 60s and it suits us perfectly, very peaceful quiet area. Beautiful garden with a very well kept pool, best sunloungers nice and strong and a gazebo to sit in if you wanted some shade. The apartment had everything we needed., the bed was nice and comfortable. Barbara our host is such a lovely lady and always at hand if you need to know something. We always hire a car to get around to visit beaches and places of interest. Holetown is a great place to stay at as there is so many places to eat and see there and you can easily travel to the north or south of the island. I wouldn't hesitate to stay at diamond oasis again such a lovely welcome by Barbara. Certainly going to miss you and the tranquility of the area. Honestly a wonderful place to stay its just up the road from limegrove..so easy to find. Book it and you wont be disappointed.

Great Stay

We had a great stay with Barbara at Diamond Oasis. The apartment was exactly as listed. It was clean, comfortable and very welcoming. The pool is a definite asset! We were within walking distance of Holetown which had beautiful beaches and excellent restaurants. Barbara was very accommodating and made us feel at home. The whole experience was wonderful! We had been to Barbados several times in the past but it was the first time for my brother-in-law and sister-in-law. The loved Barbados and hope to be back in the future. I would not hesitate to stay with Barbara again!

Everything we needed for a wonderful holiday

We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Barbara’s property. It has been ideal for us. Within walking distance of Holetown, though you need a torch if walking back at night. There’s no path at the side of the road and only a couple of street lights so you need to make yourselves as visible as possible. It is a very quiet residential area. We always hire a car and there is room for it to be parked outside in the small cul de sac. This is our seventh trip to Barbados and we have stayed in hotels but prefer self catering accommodation and it must have a private pool just for our use. The pool here is beautiful and just what you need to keep cool. It is very nice to sit outside at night too. We haven’t really cooked anything here but the kitchen is well equipped with everything you need, including a washer and dryer. Barbara lives above the apartment but is not intrusive in any way and is a very lovely lady if you do want to have a chat. We would happily book again for our next visit and we thank Barbara for her hospitality.

Great family holiday

The pictures don't do the property justice, it is beautiful and spotlessly clean. It had everything we needed and the private pool was great. The 15 min walk into town was fine and we never used a taxi, although some might find that easier. Barbara was an excellent host and couldn't do enough for us. From getting us some food in, letting us stay late as we had a late flight and calling us a taxi, Barbara made us feel extremely welcome.

Fabulous Diamond Oasis

We just returned from a 10 night stay at the Diamond Oasis. The property exceeded our expectations. Our hostess, Barbara,. was instrumental in making our stay fabulous!! She was nearby. She was always available and extremely helpful. She anticipated our needs. She even purchased eggs, bread, milk and coffee for our arrival. We got terribly lost leaving the car rental at the airport. Barbara actually drove down and rescued us!!! We followed her car back to our lodging. I am eternally grateful to her. Our lodging was fully furnished.Every morning we would see the wild monkeys. We spent a lot of time at the Sandy Lane Beach . We loved Barbados.We loved the Diamond Oasis and especially Barbara! Karen Haagensen Madison,WI., USA

Pleasant stay

The highlight is definitely the pool and that part of the garden. The apartment is in the basement of the property with little natural light. Before arriving I specifically asked if the 'secluded' garden was overlooked. I was told it wasn't, and therefore disappointed to see up to 8 windows with visibility of the pool and 3 CCTV cameras in use. Previous advice on carrying a torch if walking home after sunset proved to be a must. Suggest a small rewrite of the description.

Excellent place for a couple to relax

The apartment is very nice. Well equipped, clean and updated. The pool area is beautiful as is the gazebo with large grill. Short walk into Holetown but be careful as there is no sidewalk. A flashlight at night is a must. Barbara is an excellent host and whenever we had a question or needed something she responded immediately.

Lovely accommodation

Lovely accommodation with fabulous pool we even saw a family of monkeys pass through one day. The garden was lovely and we had this all to ourselves. Around the pool were the best sunbeds with really thick cushions so very comfortable. The bed was extremely comfortable and the kitchen well equipped for our needs. We hired a car which we kept for the whole time as we felt it was a necessity to get home in the evening after dinner as road home was uphill fast and dark. Barbara was a lovely host and made us extremely welcome.
