About this property

Contemporary Town house In Porters, St James

If you are looking for a contemporary holiday location on the beautiful West Coast, then this is for you. Situated in a quiet road within a few minutes' walk from the beach, this house is 1 of 4 in a secure, select development. A parking space is provided immediately outside the entrance. Your first taste of this delightful home is via electronic gates from where you enter into an inviting shared pool area complete with 2 outdoor showers. Your own good quality sunbeds are to hand where you can relax and laze in the sun, or should you choose, in the shade under the parasol. Upon entering this home you walk into a large, bright open plan lounge and kitchen area with wooden shutters for windows in true Bajan style. The kitchen is fitted with all the appliances you will need. The comfortable sofas seat 10 as it includes a sofa bed. There are 3 ceiling fans downstairs and with the doors open, the Bajan breeze will waft through, cooling the temperature. At one end of this room, doors open to an al fresco dining area seating 6, which has the benefit of a canopy, should you prefer some shade - just the place to enjoy a glass of wine! Upstairs are 2 bedrooms/2 bathrooms, 1 being en-suite to the master bedroom which also has a large balcony where you can sit and watch the green monkeys go back and forth to collect their fruit. Both bedrooms have amazingly comfortable American super king size beds, air conditioning and ceiling fans. Crisp cotton sheets, soft bath towels and bathrobes are provided. Both bathrooms have walk-in showers to freshen up from the temperatures of the day before deciding whether to eat at home or choose from the abundance of excellent restaurants. On arrival at this home you will be welcomed by our Property Manager. Should you wish we can provide a welcome pack (tea, bread, milk, etc) and taxi from the airport. We can also arrange competitive care hire rates, although for those not wishing to drive, there is a bus stop at the end of the road. The beaches are simply stunning with the sea clear and azure blue where you can swim with the Turtles. A short car or bus ride will bring you to the 'Limegrove Lifestyle Centre' in Holetown with its designer shops (Armani, Cartier, Diamonds International to name a few), coffee shops, restaurants, banks, etc with a large supermarket nearby. This home is in a perfect location from where you can easily access sandy beaches, gourmet restaurants (including the famous Lonestar) and an inviting pool area to welcome your return.

Beautiful Vacation!
Mango Court was a great spot for our short family vacation. Well located near the fairmont and lone star. We rented a car to make it easier for the kids, and to access the grocery store and restaurants. We loved using the pool. We enjoyed cooking dinner at the property. The BBQ made that easy. For the beach, we rented chairs with Rico between the Fairmont and Lone star hotel. They sold food and drinks. We spent one day at the boatyard. Totally worth it. A car was a must to get there. The beach was fabulous. With je kids we had to get there early to get the good chairs. Like 10am. Mango court property was good. It looked a little more dated than the pictures but once we settled in, we were very comfortable. I loved hanging out in the hammock at the deck. Bonus point for having a Nespresso machine. I brought my own capsules of my favourite coffee.

Spacious Home but could be equipped a little better
The home is in a very safe neighbourhood , however we were travelling without a car and it was a LONG walk to the beach , and some beaches were hard to access. The home has lots of sqft , but lacked some maintenance, the kitchen was equipped but lacked sharp knives and a full pots and pans set. It was however nice to have the BBQ at the house. The leaning mirrors were a concern since we had a 2 and 4 year old toddler. The maid came with only 24 hours left in our 4 day trip , I thought that could have been managed better. There was no book with local restaurants or tips and tricks for travellers in the house , that would have been nice. Geoff was easy to get ahold of on Whattsapp but did not really have a stong grasp on reccomendations of where to eat etc. The check in and check out were seamless and Steve was great to talk to when we were booking. They could use proper beach towels. The maid did an excellent job and even found a cot for our 4 year old to sleep on , I wish Geoff would have taken the time to give that to us out of the storage when we arrived.

Lovely property but major building works
The location of the property was very not far from Holetown, and close to the beach. We liked the property and the outside space, swimming pool and the veranda were great. The only was that there was major building works going on directly opposite the property and the noise was terrible, and this was for 5 and half days a week, it also created a lot of dust, but the property manager Geoff did arrange for us to have an additional weekly clean which was very kind of him. You couldn’t use the downstairs outside eating area or BBQ as it was so dusty and always felt dirty no matter how many times it was cleaned. But we did really like the property and felt comfortable there, but we did go out more than we had intended because of the noice, so all in all we didn’t have the peaceful holiday that we would would have liked

Holiday ruined by construction site noise
Extreme disappointment that the property owner did not inform us of the fact that there was a major construction site 10m from the rear of the property that was in operation Monday to Saturday 06:30 to 16:30hrs and minor operations being carried out on Sunday mornings. The construction site had been working for some considerable time (12 months plus) before we arrived and was some months from completion when we left. Wagons delivering and tipping stone & materials causing noise and dust. Construction plant & machinery being delivered and collected on multiple occasions. Emptying and servicing of site toilet units. Smell was horrendous and extremely noisy. The pool area was not only very dusty (including the two sun beds/chairs) but the environment was very noisy and as a result we were unable to use the pool area at any time during our stay. Constant noise from the site cement mixers (also located at the front of the building site which was around 10m from the rear of the apartment) which were working constantly during site working hours and being loaded manually and by site machinery. Th property was tired and not well maintained. Dirty crockery, No hot water in the kitchen. Bedroom wardrobes collapsed, no outside light for eating. No dining table to eat meals from inside. Shutters bolted shut with polythene over. Dirty cooker & hob. Location is good for beach and public transport which will be needed as pool are is unbearable to relax by and use.
