A luxurious 5-bedroom, 7-bathroom retreat with panoramic sea views on Barbados’ Platinum Coast

Set on over half an acre in the peaceful, upscale enclave of Carlton View, Villa Elan offers the best of West Coast living. Just a 10-minute walk from the beach, this contemporary villa is elevated to capture constant breezes and unforgettable sunsets over the Caribbean Sea. From here, you’re minutes from the coast’s top restaurants, golf courses, and beaches—yet tucked away in a quiet residential setting.

Elegant Design Meets Comfortable Living

Thoughtfully designed by a UK architectural team with experience building luxury homes in Barbados, the villa blends European style with a relaxed Caribbean lifestyle. The home spans 7,500 sq. ft (697 sq. m) of covered space with a layout that works beautifully for both family life and high-end holiday rentals.

The main floor features a spacious open-plan living area that flows onto a wide, covered terrace, perfect for sunset dining or simply relaxing with ocean views. Large sliding doors frame the sea, while multiple options for indoor and outdoor cooking (including a chef’s kitchen and BBQ area) make entertaining easy. You’ll also find a guest suite with its own terrace, a media room, two powder rooms, an office, and a utility room.

Space to Relax, Entertain, and Escape

The villa is surrounded by lush, landscaped gardens and offers plenty of private outdoor space. The 46-ft saltwater pool sits at the heart of the home, bordered by generous terraces and a breezy gazebo with a swing seat and TV. An ideal spot to unwind. There’s also a sunken seating area in the pool, and a shaded upper terrace with electric sunscreens for warm afternoons.

Downstairs, four more bedroom suites open directly onto the pool deck and garden, each with its own bathroom and dressing area. Two of these suites also enjoy private terraces with sea views from both the bedroom and bathroom. All five bedrooms can be arranged with King beds, with two offering a twin option. Seamless WiFi and a built-in Bose system run throughout the home.

Villa Elan has proven rental appeal, delivering strong net returns in its first year on the market. It’s ready to be enjoyed as a private residence, an investment property, or both.

An Option to Expand

A rare opportunity comes with this home: the chance to acquire the adjoining lot. Not only does this protect your panoramic views, but it also opens the door to future expansion—perhaps a guest cottage, garden pavilion, or additional entertaining space.
