Illusion at Sugar Hill

Overview

Sugar Hill is located inland slightly north of Holetown on the West Coast of Barbados, and famed for the West Coast beaches, excellent shopping and renowned restaurants.

The luxurious Sandy Lane Hotel inspired the design of 'Illusion' and the result was a breathtaking villa, which combines elegance with contemporary design in impressive style. As you walk through the large glass front doors you are greeted by an uninterrupted vista of the Caribbean Sea. The foyer spills out onto a covered terrace that overlooks the large swimming pool and dual staircases that lead down to the pool area. To the left of the covered terrace is the formal dining room and to the right is the master suite.

The dining room is spacious and cool with a large glass table that seats twelve persons. The room itself transforms into an al fresco dining area as three walls of folding glass doors open up to a wrap around balcony allowing you to dine amongst swaying mahogany trees and travelers palms. Right off the dining room is the well-outfitted kitchen. The kitchen has abundant space, easily accommodating two wine coolers, a number of stainless steel appliances and a dumb waiter designed to facilitate the hassle-free transfer of meals to the external dining area on the pool level.

On the lower level of 'Illusion' is a tastefully-designed living room with the solo purpose of being a comfortable place to relax. It is equipped with a large, flat-screen television with cable, DVD player, Bose surround speakers and a bar for your convenience. It is an open plan room, which leads through a number of arches onto the pool deck. The pool deck has numerous loungers, a barbecue and two gazebos both gazebos are outfitted with Bose surround sound system. One gazebo has a small outdoor kitchenette and the other gazebo has an informal dining area.
