Astra
Astra sits on a high coral cliff overlooking the sweeping arc of Foul Bay Beach on the southeast coast of Barbados. From this unique vantage, you can watch the sun rise out of the Atlantic and the sea turtles feeding below. If what you are looking for is perfect tranquiltity, privacy without isolation, security and serenity--but with every contemporary convenience--you will find it at Astra.
The house itself is an excellent example of island vernacular architecture, a three bedroom, two bathroom bungalow with shuttered windows and a wide verandah along the east and south side of the house, which face the beach and ocean. The house has just been upgraded with new windows throughout and an access door from one bedroom to the verandah to the East. There is a newly renovated enlarged and modern kitchen with breakfast bar open to the dining and living areas. The bedrooms and bathrooms have also been upgraded.
The house has a 20 metre pool, set on the coral cliff with a spectacular view of the beach and bay below. This is a perfect pool for swimming laps or just having a relaxing dip after sunning on the wonderful pool deck. The deck itself has two gazebos providing shade as required, one with a dining table and chairs and the other with a wet bar. Just by the gazebos is a bathroom and shower. One of the most magnificent features of this large pool is the infinity edge which overlooks the cliff and sea below giving one the impression of the sea being an extension of the pool.
Perfect for families of up to six, or two or three couples vacationing together, Astra offers casual comfort, seclusion, and a short drive to the spectacular Crane beach and even closer to one of the more secluded beaches on the island of Barbados, all within 10 minutes of the airport and 30 minutes of Bridgetown.
The weekly rate includes maid service three days a week. Upon request, the services of an experienced cook, who can prepare the local seafood and island specialties, is also available for an additional charge.
