Absolutely fantastic house in paradise!
We loved our stay in Tickety Blue, with the hosts doing everything they could to make the stay run smoothly. The house is just as described - great sized rooms all with effective air conditioning, a great downstairs with a good sized indoor dining table and lounge, and a lovely outside with a small pool and seating areas. The small estate that the house is on is great, with a bigger pool, tennis court (although a little too hot to play!) and table tennis. The real jewel in the crown was the access to the Fairmont's Beach Club, a short walk away (although across one quite busy road). This gave access to sun-loungers and umbrella's on a fantastic beach. All in all, I cannot recommend this place enough and we will definitely try to get back here as soon as we can!

50th birthday in Barbados
Beautiful well appointed property, everything we needed was here. We made good use of the beach club passes and when we weren't at the beach our time was spent one of the pools. Highly recommend!!

Lovely place to stay
We really enjoyed our stay. The house was lovely, well equipped, spacious and in a great location. The property manager, Marcia, was great - one of the air conditioning units stopped working late one evening and she arranged an engineer to visit within the hour to fix it. Would definitely stay there again.

Lovely home and gated complex with a shared pool.
The property manager was superb and always at the end of a WhatsApp message. Everything was easy from start to finish. The use of the hotels beds on the beach was great also

Amazing house
What an amazing house Tickety Blue is. Six of us stayed, each in our own en-suite room. The house had everything you could possibly need while on holiday. Marcia the property manager was lovely and very helpful. Natalie, the housekeeper came in to change sheets and towels. The house is a 5 minute walk to the beach at the Fairmount Royal Pavillion hotel, beach club cards are provided so you have use of sun beds and a discount off your rum sour. I highly recommend Tickety Blue if you are looking for somewhere to stay in Barbados.

Enjoyable stay
Good space. Well stocked kitchen with a good supply of essentials and coffee. Nice touches of slippers and bathrobes - something we don’t see in vacation rentals. TV has many channels. House and pool super clean. Pool has jets. Plenty of towels. Good to have Beach Club passes. Excellent communication with owners. Great property manager, Marcia, who helped arrange all of our taxis including a 4:30am pick up on our day of departure.

Very nice condo in quiet secluded area
Very nice place in a secluded area. While we where there they were doing construction around development but it did not cause any type of inconveniences for us. Home is a few miles from Holetown and walkable. Buses are very easy and cheap to ride. The only inconvenience we experienced is the hot water in the morning was good for about 1 shower and there were 6 of us. We failed to mention until a day before leaving which was our mistake. Seems there was a hot water booster in a room off the kitchen we could have pushed for more hot water. Instead we just took shifts for showering lol Very happy with the VRBO. Also Cal was very helpful with all my questions before and during our stay.

Hi Joell and friends - thanks for reviewing 'Tickety-Blue" - Glad you asked Marcia about the water although we find the solar heater usually lasts all day and night . We hope you loved Barbados and come back again one day - Are you back to the snow now? Hope that's not too great a shock to the system!! Lotsaluv Cal xxx

Wonderful Property
"Tickety Blue" is located in a quiet, gated complex of townhomes on the west side of the island. Very convenient to shopping, restaurants, etc. It has three BR/BA plus a powder room (plenty of room to spread out) a very well-equipped kitchen, and a lovely, private plunge pool out back.

Wonderful Tickety Blue
My family and I had a wonderful time at Tickety Blue! The villa was immaculately clean, and well situated in a gated community. The plunge pool was used multiple times daily to cool off from the hot sun, and was just the right size. The use of the Fairmont Beach Club was a huge bonus, as we were just a 8-10 minute walk away. This villa is a short walk to many great restaurants such as JuJu’s, Seacat, Lonestar, and Juma's. The property manager Marcia was a pleasure to work with and was always available to help us out and answer any questions that we had. We look forward to returning during our next trip to Barbados!

PRACTICALLY PERFECT
We have stayed in the area many times before but this was our first time staying in this villa and we will definitely return. The decor is tasteful and very in keeping with the property. Having three double rooms each with a decent bathroom was a treat. The outdoor area is lovely and was used a lot. We have nothing but good things to say about the villa and our dealings with Cal and when in Barbados Marcia who was always helpful. Thank you for having us in your beautiful home.

Fantastic Villa
We stayed at Villa Tickety Blue in April 2022. Can’t speak highly enough about the owners and property manager, nothing is too much trouble for them. We have stayed in Barbados many times but have to say this was our favourite. It is a short walk to the most perfect beach and the French bakery is amazing! The villa itself is exceptionally clean, well maintained and well equipped, but it’s the little touches that made it special. Will most definitely book this villa again. Thank you to Cal, Robin & Marcia.
