Apes Hill, Barbados

Apes Hill is a true golfer’s paradise, with its greens and fairways perched 1,000 feet above sea level amongst 475 acres of tropical vegetation. Drink in some of the most spectacular ocean views in Barbados from the clubhouse restaurant, spend lazy days relaxing by your private pool, and enjoy a range of sporting and wellness activities that offers plenty for non-golfers too, including kids.

Airport Transfer

30 Minutes drive from the airport.

Location

Situated close to the island’s highest point with sweeping Atlantic and Caribbean views, 30 minutes’ drive from the airport and 10 minutes from lively Holetown.

Accommodation

The two-storey Courtyard Villas enjoy wonderful views of the Caribbean Sea and the golf course, and feature three bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen with SMEG appliances, espresso machine and wine fridge. Head outside and you’ll find a 30-foot private pool, comfy loungers, outdoor dining space and your own barbecue. The new four bedroom Hilltop Villas are a great option for larger groups, laid out over a single storey with an open floor plan and a private pool.

Restaurants And Bars

You can head straight from the last hole to the Noisy Cricket clubhouse bar and restaurant and enjoy tapas at the bar or an al fresco lunch on the patio. There is also casual all-day dining at the 20th Hole, an outdoor kitchen with some of the best sunset views in Barbados. A private chef can be arranged if you would prefer to dine in your villa, and there is a grocery store where you can stock up if you’re self-catering.

Facilities

Unsurprisingly, Apes Hill is all about the golf, with an 18-hole championship course and a 19th fun hole with the green situated on an island in a lake, plus a par 3, 9-hole short course. You can practise your swing at the floodlit driving range, or leave the clubs behind and explore hiking and nature trails, play tennis, work out at the gym and greet each day with sunrise yoga. The famous beaches of the west coast are a short drive away, and there is a kids’ club to keep younger guests entertained.
