We all have a pretty good idea about self-catered cottages in the UK or even what a villa holiday abroad might be like. There are self-catered villas, ones where you have a welcome pack, daily cleaning, butler or chef, as well as fully staffed and catered villas which can offer similar aspects to a catered ski holiday.

One holiday option that is very popular, especially in the Caribbean, is having a beautiful villa, complete with staff to look after you during your holiday. Many of our villas offer a full concierge service where your shopping is delivered, a chef will cook for you, the villa is cleaned daily and anything you need can be arranged. This takes much of the stress and effort out of staying in a villa. There is no cooking and cleaning to do whilst on holiday which means that everyone can really relax. 

Villas such as those found in the Caribbean afford the luxuries that come with staying in a hotel yet these villas provide plenty of space, excellent facilities such as private pools or games rooms, and you have the privacy that many wish for with a holiday abroad. 

The added bonus of these villa properties is that throughout the Caribbean they are set safely within the grounds of some spectacular hotels. This means that you have the hotel and main resort facilities to enjoy, such as tennis courts and spas, you can dine in the hotel restaurants and choose when and how you would like to use the hotel and its facilities. Guests staying in these villas can combine the best of both worlds. 

Generally many travellers choose to stay in a hotel when heading on a long-haul holiday, commonly an all-inclusive hotel when it comes to the Caribbean, however some of these beautiful villas can be perfect for a family or group of friends.

The Villa Moon Dance in the St. James area of Barbados is exactly this, the perfect combination of a villa and hotel resort. A spectacular villa sleeping 12 guests in six en-suite bedrooms, with a cook service, concierge and butler. The villa itself is elegant and refined with beautifully decorated interiors. The chic styling offers a relaxing feel and the air conditioned rooms certainly help with the Caribbean heat. This incredible villa has a swimming pool to be envious of as well as a Jacuzzi, surrounded by almost two acres of tropical gardens and greenery, there is plenty of space to relax inside and out.

This villa is set within the heart of the Sandy Lane Estate overlooking the golf course. It is just a short walk from the private beach and guests can enjoy the sun loungers and make use of the facilities. In addition to the main villa there is a two bedroom cottage linked to the property which is ideal for a family to have some privacy and space.
