Fabulous Sugar Hill Penthouse with Roof Terrace

Exclusive Sugar Hill apartment. Gated estate, close to local beaches. Complimentary Fairmont Royal Pavilion Beach Club membership included.
Enjoy the warm sunshine of Barbados from Yellow Bird, this beautifully refurbished top floor penthouse apartment based in the luxurious Sugar Hill resort. As an end unit it has a larger footprint with additional space, privacy and seclusion. The far reaching sea views can be enjoyed from a newly renovated sun deck.

Named after the famous Yellow Bird of Barbados, this very private apartment overlooks lush tropical gardens and one of the two swimming pools with views into the distance of the Caribbean sea. As well as enjoying stunning views from both the dining terrace and rooftop terrace, you will be able to relax and unwind in this peaceful haven. Perhaps start your day taking breakfast on the dining terrace while discussing your plans together. You might even be lucky enough to spot a green monkey roaming in the grounds who often make an appearance early in the morning! The large rooftop terrace on the top deck is for your own personal use and access to it is up a short flight of stairs leading directly from the dining terrace area. You can enjoy sunbathing here in complete privacy during the day and in the evenings it makes a wonderful spot to watch the sun go down and listen to the tropical sounds of the rustling palms and the tree frogs.

Very near to the fine dining restaurants of Barbados' West Coast, as well as more local bars and restaurants where you can sample some of the delicious Bajan dishes. Or why not enjoy alfresco wining and dining in Yellow Bird beneath the stars. Take your pick between the dining terrace or the rooftop terrace where you can sip your cocktails or even enjoy a BBQ.

Yellow Bird is very close to the amenities of upmarket Holetown as well as some of the most stunning beaches in Barbados. It comes with complimentary membership of the Sugar Hill Club and the Fairmont Royal Pavilion Beach Club.

In the apartment you will find all the modern conveniences you would expect including air conditioning in both the bedroom and lounge/kitchen. Maid service once weekly (more at extra charge). Alicia, my excellent property manager, can also arrange car hire, taxis, book tours, restaurants and organise pre-arrival groceries if required.

It is just a five minute drive to Holetown and local amenities. Car rental or taxis are recommended.

We expect the onsite restaurant & bar (The Deck) to be closed in September, so we have reduced the rate by 10% for this month.
During your stay at this apartment building, you'll be within walking distance of Royal Westmoreland Golf Course. Enjoy features like a gym. The apartment includes amenities such as free WiFi and a kitchen.
  • Air-conditioned apartment with kitchen, washing machine, and balcony
  • Free WiFi
  • Onsite recreation includes a gym
  • 7 minutes by car from Mullins Beach and 8 minutes from Sandy Lane Beach
This apartment offers its guests a fitness center and a garden. The front desk is open around the clock.

This Holetown apartment is smoke free.

Another enjoyable stay
An ideal comfortable apartment for couples, based on Sugar Hill gated community. With a bonus of a private sun terrace if you don't want to walk a minute to the pool and the sun loungers there. The beach membership at Fairmount is the icing on the cake. The apartment is well provided for self catering, and the on-site restaurant and the many restaurants in Holetown just a couple of minutes drive away are a welcome alternative. A car is desirable for getting around although the joys of public transport are something to be experienced. The owner Judith and property manager Alicia are very responsive, especially since we stayed during Hurricane Beryl, keeping us informed of any issues that would affect us. Can't recommend Yellow Bird highly enough, and has become our go-to property when staying in Barbados.

Stunning Villa; Wonderful location!
This could not have been a more beautiful unit and villa grounds! The only downside is it's going to hard to top this! And then there's the nightly sounds of green monkeys and tree frogs, and tropical birds during the day; it was pure heaven! When (not if) it rained, we simply read on the covered veranda overlooking the gorgeous grounds. We stayed 2 weeks and had a blast! The Fairmont Beach Club is just down the road, as well as wonderful Bajan restaurants - out favorite was Juma's for dinners, and Simone's Beach Stand for lunch and takeout dinners. And just limin! Tennis was superb with Olley. So happy we were able to make this trip!

World-class stay
This was my second time staying at the property (Yellow Bird). This property is wonderful for so many reasons. It is the perfect place for a getaway. The grounds are spectacular and boast the most luscious nature and greenery, the facilities are stunning, and the estate is in a great location. The staff also make you feel welcome and safe. The property is clean, just as described, and the photos are accurate. Although it's difficult to capture the true beauty of Barbados and Sugar Hill in photos, these pictures do a pretty good job. I will most definitely be back. Thanks, Judith and Alicia, for a phenomenal stay!

Beautiful Property!
We stayed 4 weeks at Yellow Bird, Sugar Hill and our expectations were exceeded in every way! Yellow Bird is well equipped with very comfortable beds, fans & A/C, loungers, wi-fi, full kitchen with anything you might need, etc. We were well taken care of by Phil with weekly housekeeping and Alicia, the property manager. The Sugar Hill resort is absolutely magnificent with two pools, a restaurant, and gorgeous grounds. The included Fairmont Beach Club is a bonus with lovely beach facilities. We loved it all and will be back!

Wonderful vacation in Barbados
We spent 10 days in Yellow Bird (extended from 7 days because we were enjoying ourselves so much.) The property is exactly as described and depicted in the photos. Beautiful location in Sugar Hill with the birds singing and palm trees swaying in the wind. So very peaceful and relaxing. It is very well equipped and the King size bed is very comfortable. The rooftop deck was wonderful. We spent many mornings and evenings up there, having coffee and just enjoying the spectacular view and refreshing breeze. The pool area is beautiful, the perfect place to lounge after a busy day touring or at the beach. Sugar Hill is just well enough removed from the hustle, bustle and noise of the main roads yet close enough to drive to town, grocery store, restaurants and beaches within minutes. The entire property is perfectly maintained. We rented a vehicle and drove around the entire island, visiting many of the locations suggested by Kate. I highly recommend Kates place, and Barbados for a spectacular vacation. I would definitely stay there again when I get another chance to travel to Barbados, which is a stunning island filled with beauty and warm friendly people.

Peaceful
Lovely apartment, peaceful and beautiful surroundings. Well equipped kitchen and BBQ, good ac and ceiling fans. Plenty of towels (bath/beach/pool) cooler bag and beach club membership to Jumas. Two pools and the clubhouse is great for happy hour (Tuesday and Friday) followed by dinner (no driving involved ) You definitely need a car as it’s a 20+ Minute downhill walk to the bars/restaurants/beach and a 30+ minute uphill walk back 😉 Only negative issues: constant lack of water in the mornings; could do with comfy chairs/loungers on downstairs balcony (instead of 6 seater dining table) as upstairs terrace to hot (for us) in the afternoons; a luxury property merits softer bed pillows.! The sound quality on TV was average to awful and the LG remote didn’t work although a new universal remote was supplied, but didn’t replicate original functions on remote. (Instructions on devices would be helpful) Speedy responses from the owners prior to arrival and Alicia (apartment manager) was very responsive throughout our stay. We did have a fabulous holiday and won’t leave it 10 years till we return again to Barbados 😁

Fabulous stay at Sugar Hill
The apartment was all that we hoped - clean, spacious and very comfortable. I hadn’t appreciated before we stayed what a great location it is. The facilities and general standards at Sugar Hill are really impressive. Two beautiful swimming pools, great tennis courts, lovely landscape and bar/restaurant. Plus easy to get to any number of great beaches.

December 2021 stay
Sugar Hill is a beautiful estate, high up above the sea , 5 mins drive or 25 minutes walk to the sea( steep uphill on the way back ). The flat was very well appointed, the bed was comfortable and the air con and fans were very effective. The pools , especially at the club, were a joy. You need a car to benefit most from this area. We enjoyed the casual vibe of the Juma s beach membership which came with the flat. Would recommend without hesitation .

Incredible stay with a one-of-a-kind host team
Not to mention the incredibly spacious, luxurious and thoughtful property, my stay was made even more special by Kate's incredible hosting abilities. Everything was taken care of and Kate truly went above and beyond to ensure that given the Corona circumstances, I could have the most relaxing and peaceful trip. As a seasoned user of other rentals, this was my first time using VRBO, and it has far exceeded my expectations. When this happens, I like to acknowledge it. The property is exactly as it appears in the pictures. The grounds are glorious, the staff are kind and accommodating: a special thanks to Cynthia at the Sugar Hill Estate front desk for ensuring I had a local's take on island life activities, and a special thank you to the property manager, Alicia, for all of your support and guidance. Whenever I had an issue, Alicia was on hand, incredibly responsive, accommodating, patient and is a true benefit to the overall experience. Given the COVID situation, and all of the many things that could have gone wrong with this trip, I am very grateful I had the chance to have some rest and relaxation in such a beautiful property hosted by such a caring, considerate and thoughtful hosting duo: Kate and Alicia. Although you have the property to yourself, their responsiveness makes it feel like your (urgent) needs are very well taken care of, even from a distance. Thank you, all, and I am looking forward to coming back and recommending this place to many others. :)

Lovely apartment
Despite the current world crisis we spend 10 days here in March. Weather was beautiful. The resort was very quiet. The apartment was perfect for us. It was well kitted out and the terrace and outdoor balcony were lovely. Our housekeeper was very kind . Sugar hill is beautiful. Pool area was peaceful . We used the beach passes a few times and enjoyed the beach club, its lunches and cocktails watching the sunset. We visited Bathsheba, Crane Beach. St Nicholas and earthworks pottery. As well as other spots on the west coast. We had a car all the time and it was invaluable. Although we also used a local taxi in the evenings. Our meals out included the Lone Star and Carizma in the chattel village. The info in the apartment was very useful although some of the restaurants have sadly closed. We will return!!

Perfect condo, great location
The lovely apartment was exactly as described and the Sugar Hill complex is beautifully maintained. The pass to the Fairmont was very useful. We walked the short distance to the north of the beach (as recommended) which is quieter and a short stroll to a very good beach bar for lunches. However, we took Kate’s advice and drove to Bottom Bay (about 40 mins drive) which was well worth it - amazing! Another beach worth a visit is Batts Rock. Kate left a very comprehensive list of restaurants which were all good. However, one not included was The Fishpot near Speightstown (about 20 mins drive). This was our absolute favourite and reasonably priced. Finally a very very big thank you to Phil (the maid), who was the most helpful and loveliest person around. Our first visit to Barbados was 7 years ago - why did we wait so long to return?
