Villa vacation on Barbados with celebrity Hugh Grant
LONDON, ENGLAND, May 2005 – Hugh Grant and Jemima Goldsmith chose a winter sun villa vacation on Barbados this year to get away from it all. They stayed at The Dream on the west coast of the island which is available through Wimco (0870 850 1144 /www.wimco.co.uk) from just £7,382 per week (accommodation only). Villa Dream is an attractive five bedroom Barbados beachfront villa with a pool and stunning views over the Caribbean. The ground floor features three bedrooms, sitting room with bar which opens onto a terrace, private gardens, pool deck and the beach. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms of which the master bedroom has a private balcony overlooking the pool and gazebo. Staff consists of a maid, a chef, a laundress, a gardener and a night watchman.
Grant and Goldsmith enjoyed their holiday to such an extent that on their return Hugh snapped up a villa on the island for a cool £3 million. For those of us who feel that £3 million is just that little bit too much for a holiday in the sun, Wimco has the answer, with a wide selection of villas on Barbados which are available from £1,000 per week.
