Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. The house exceeded our expectations. Everything we could possibly need was here. We did spend a few nights cooking and enjoyed the patio each night.
The beach is beautiful one of the best I have been to, the pools were great, we had the pools to ourselves the entire time. We went to Sharkeys in Holetown – great food, Café Luna is a great restaurant great views, Jordans grocery store had the local necessities but Massy’s had more variety.
Annette you do an amazing job of making sure the house has everything we need. Shonelle was a delight too. We will be back soon.
Annette and Steve Wow! This place is absolutely fantastic! We loved everything and everyone!
Thank you a million times.

Seven of us (5 Brits and 2 Canadians) have had a great vacation staying in your beautiful villa. It exceeded our expectations: great location, superb facilities and amenities, we all enjoyed having our own space. Having the Westmoreland just across the road really made the vacation and thanks for the restaurant recommendations – we especially liked Bombas. Lastly thanks to Shonelle for all you did for us – you are Awesome!

A great stay for all, we travelled late July beginning August 2019
I, mum, travelled with my 2 sons, age 10 and age 11 my 11 year old special needs and a care team of 4.
Through the booking process the hosts (Steve and Annette) were extremely patient, helpful and responsive to all of my questions. I was booking for individual adults and children including special needs and had lots of questions to ask. Both hosts always responded in a timely fashion and provided help and details. On arrival we were greeted by the House Manager Shonelle. Shonelle was very helpful during the checkin and always on call during our stay.
All of what the accommodation offers and what the location offers is far more than what can be described on one listing. We were comfortable and happy throughout our stay. The bedrooms are a good size all ensuite, beds very comfortable with AC. The accommodation is attractive, clean and with all amenities required for a comfortable stay. The pools are 1-minute walk and grounds, never overcrowded are very well maintained and the security around the complex helpful and friendly.
The beach was just across the road and very easy to enjoy with towels and beds taken care of by helpful staff. The location offered good transport links. As a mum of two children and speaking on behalf of the young adults who joined me, we all had a great holiday and all were very comfortable in our accommodation. Thank you Steve and Annette for being such great hosts.

Our group of 4 couples that stayed at Happy Returns agreed that this was one of the best vacation rentals we have experienced. The communication with Annette was great from the start and she made sure that we even knew where to eat at the airport when we were leaving. The house had everything we needed. The bedrooms fit our 4 couples perfectly and the beds and linens were so cozy and comfortable. Each room had its own AC which allows everyone to sleep at a temp suitable for them. The outdoor area is where we spent most of our time and was enough room for the 8 of us to enjoy dinners and lively card games in the evening. It also was nice for the early risers to be able to sit outside and have coffee without disturbing our sleepyheads-which rooms were dark enough to do! The kitchen is well equipped to cook meals in. The living room had a nice supply of books, games, and the TV selection was more than enough. Annette has put a lot of thought into the home and you really feel like you have everything you need. The gated community is wonderfully landscaped with pools beautiful trees and well manicured shrubs. It is a short 2 min walk to Mullins Beach. The beach was a bit small right across the road due to some rough sea conditions when we first arrived but we found so many nice areas to sit and enjoy the calm sea just a few minutes walk south. My favorite mornings were when the tide was low enough to walk along the beach to Gibbs. The area is great. It is quiet compared to the south of the island. There is a gas station a few minute walk away with essentials. A nice variety of restaurants walking distance and a couple places to grab Banks for cheap. We like to walk and found it easily walkable to Gibbs Beach, Speightstown, and even to Heywoods (which we loved). Sometimes we would walk there and catch the bus back. We had a van for the 8 of us and found our place easy to get to. The best surprise was having Shonnelle come throughout our stay to tidy up after us. We did not expect it but truly appreciated this. We would recommend Happy Returns to anyone looking for a place to be immersed in beautiful surroundings, have quiet beach access close by, and enjoys a bit of home cooking and conveniences of having a house. Hope we can Happily Return someday.
