Little Reef is well situated for multiple activities. Directly on a very beautiful beach there is snorkelling on the reef a short swim out from the shore. Boat activities are on offer from passing operators on the way to the big resorts past Sandy Lane. Fishermen bring in the catch in Fitts Village five minutes down the beach. Jordan's Supermarket is five minutes walk along the beach and there are restaurants within easy reach by foot or car. There are no high rise blocks of apartments, no fast food outlets nearby but local food restaurants are within walking distance. if you want to shop, need a Bank a good meal or a pizza, even a bit of night life, Holetown is fifteen minutes away by bus or car and Bridgetown and the South Coast around twenty minutes by car and the busses pass regularly!
If you just want to sit and do nothing but soak up the sun Little Reef has a lovely patio with an ambiance all it's own . The sunsets are very often spectacular and to sip a cool drink watching the boats go by is truly the most relaxing and stress free activity of them all.
We just want you to enjoy the experience!

Sally, Micheal and Grantley were all friendly and welcoming. Sally answered my questions right away. This is an excellent spot if you want a beach vacation with snorkeling. The kitchen was well stocked with all the essentials. Plenty of beach and bath towels are provided. The only below average thing was the mattresses.

Paradise on Earth

Little Reef is a little piece of paradise on earth. A great location away from the crowds with easy access to restaurants and shopping. The views from the private balcony are stunning.

Little Reef is a perfect little hideaway

We had a lovely two week stay at Little Reef. Right on a perfect quiet beach, within easy reach of all the West Coast has to offer. Bed was comfy, air con great, WiFi fast and the apartment although basic had everything you needed. The sunsets were spectacular!

A fabulous apartment on a wonderful beach.

The apartment was excellent, with very good facilities. It was only a few steps to the beach, which was almost always deserted. The sea was warm and the swimming a delight. Very good restaurants and other facilities close by.

Charming place, great location!

Have just returned from a 3 week stay at Little Reef. It is just as lovely as the photos show, and we very much enjoyed our visit. So much, in fact, that we've just booked again for 2018! Many thanks to Sally, as well as Grantley and Shirley for their kindness and attention during our holiday. Can't wait for next year!

I can’t rate this place highly enough. The location is perfect, the apartment well equipped. Grantley and Michael can’t do enough to help out during your stay if you need anything and Sally is a great host. This property is probably the best all round place I’ve ever found on VRBO!
