Overall property was nice with some beautiful elements like hard wood floors, nice decor, beautiful deck and bathrooms, etc. There are a few drawbacks - sofas and bedding a bit dated, noisy AC (and note only AC in bedrooms; living room, dining and kitchen can get quite warm), and a musty smell in second bedroom.

Great stay again at Somnia
This was our 2nd stay at Somnia. It's a lovely haven 10 minutes up from the beach in the fantastic neighbourhood of Navy Gardens. The property management is excellent, the place is clean and as advertised. The 2nd floor outdoor terrace is a game-changer. The only thing to be aware of is that it's a bit of an uphill trek (10-15 minutes) from the beach and shops if you don't have a car. Anette is the housekeeper who comes in weekly and she is lovely.

If you’re looking for a relaxing Bajan neighborhood experience, this is the perfect place. The patio is so delightful…we spent most of the time outdoors. One night I looked down and a tiny frog was sitting next to me. It can be a bit tricky to find the first time due to Google Maps inaccuracy, but easy to find if you take Dayrell road. Highly recommend…lovely stay.

Outstanding in every way!
We stayed here in upper level for 10 days of our vacation and had friends join us. Above and beyond, pictures do not do it Justice for space, cleanliness and comfort. Has beach modern decor, air works great in bedrooms. Only improvement could be adding air to living room, but was not a big deal or concern. Had an outside issue which was not our hosts fault but they were on it to ensure it was quickly resolve and treated us to a wonderful Bajan lunch. They are very attentive!!
Location is perfect, 10 min quick to main road and Blakey’s restaurant on the Boardwalk. 10 min by car to Pebbles Beach. Sue’s Market is a quick 5 min walk and she has everything you can think of!! Wonderful lady!!

We loved our stay in Ian and Cecily‘s apartment! The apartment itself is very comfortable and suitable for a couple and friends. It is well appointed and has everything you need for self catering. We particularly loved their second-story terrace, which is huge and surrounded by plants and trees. Ian was extremely flexible and communicative during our process. Trudi, the property manager, and Annette, the cleaner, and Richard, the groundskeeper, were all fabulous. It’s located in a very quiet and safe neighborhood, and we will be sure to come back.

We had a really lovely stay at Ian's place - it's comfortable and very well-equipped, with a fabulous terrace. Only a 10 minute walk to the beach but a decent supermarket is about 30 mins walk away, so a car is probably advised for some people.

Paradise at Somnia
We stayed at Somnia for the month of February. The house is divided into two spacious apartments. While we stayed in the upper apartment, I did get the chance to see the lower one (which is equally as lovely as upstairs). Our accommodation consisted of two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a very well equipped kitchen and a large dining/sitting room area that opened up onto a huge deck that was surrounded on three sides by trees and shrubs of all kinds. Because of the house’s fairly high location, the deck captured the soft breezes, a godsend particularly in the heat of the day, and attracted all manner of birds. The decor of the apartment was stunning with much attention to detail. I particularly enjoyed the artwork.
The house is an 8-minute walk from the beach and a very fine boardwalk that was built in 2012. It runs from Rockley beach to Hastings beach, some 1.5 kms, and is well used by locals and tourists alike. It was wonderful to walk along the shore and enjoy the ocean without having to dodge traffic. No dogs, bikers, rollerbladers are allowed on the boardwalk - just walkers and joggers. There were plenty of restaurants by the water and a farmers’ market every Wednesday and Saturday.
The owners, Ian and Cecily, were readily available by email as were the caretakers, Trudi and Randy. We had a problem with the a/c one day and within 24 hours, it was fixed. We were impressed. Trudi cooked us a delicious Bajan dinner one day - a real treat.
We didn’t have a car so relied on taxis and the prolific van buses which seemed to come along every two minutes and cost $3.5 Bajan to go anywhere on the island - surely one of the best and most efficient transit systems we’ve encountered in our travels.
All in all, we had a lovely time in Barbados which was made all the lovelier by our stay at Somnia.

Beautiful house but the Neigbouring dogs are loud
My husband and I spent 4 weeks in Somnia looking for a relaxing stay. This was not our first trip to Barbados. We plan on purchasing a property this year in Barbados. Our previous stay on the island was great.
Somnia is a clean, comfortable home away with a lovely veranda. The kitchen appliances aside from the fridge and stove are tired though. The first week the handle to the toaster fell off. It was brought to the attention of the Property Manager, Trudi and we said we'd make due with using a knife to push down the handle. Our coffee maker never worked properly taking over an hour to brew. Before the second week is stopped working all together. Trudi was contacted that day and she quickly responded stating she'd have it replaced. By the 3rd week we still had not seen a replacement coffee maker so we purchased our own. Trudi then offered to pay for it but since we plan having our own place we decided to keep it and store it for our next trip to Barbados.
The neighbouring houses are close and as such sound travels. We understand you cannot choose your neighbours but it should be understood if you're looking to rent this property that there are several noisy dogs. We are dog breeders ourselves and understand dogs bark. Most of the time it's because the owner's don't pay attention or correct them. In this case the neighboring dogs were quite disturbing. They would bark for 10 min at a time, 1/2 hour or 3 hours straight. The one night they barked from 9:30 pm - 11:30 pm non-stop. We only heard 1 owner correct their dog on 1 occasion, only for it to continue and the owner ignore it. Since the house in question is VERY close it be heard in the bedroom very easily with the windows closed and the AC on. We complained the first week to the the Property Manager, Trudi but she didn't seem to acknowledge our concern at that point. We didn't want to be "Karen's" so we didn't complain again until it got too much to ignore. By the end of the 2nd week we couldn't enjoy our stay with the windows open close the patio doors and windows at times just to watch tv. At this point we brought it to the attention of both the Property Manager and the Owner. If it hadn't been for the fact that we had paid good money to stay we would have packed up and found other accommodations. Will we return to Barbados? ABSOLUTELY. Would we ever stay at Somnia? Never again. The house is lovely but not the dogs. Not sure how Ian can resolve this issue.

Caribbean home away from home
We really enjoyed our 3 week stay at Somnia. The highlights were the large and breezy deck, the wonderful housekeeper as well as the property manager who clearly put her tenants first. The house is very comfortable for a couple and having the extra full bathroom was great for a short-term additional guest or two. The kitchen is also well equipped for self catering. We felt very comfortable and enjoyed the neighbourhood vibe. The only nuisance was the noise from one adjacent property but that could be ignored most times.

Fantastic property
We had a wonderful 2+ week vacation at beautiful Somnia. The location was perfect - a 10 minute walk from Rockley beach, the farmer's market and many restaurants. The home was very clean, fully equipped for cooking, AC in the bedrooms and modern bathrooms. The decor was beautiful - Bajan style with lots of personal touches. There is a bookshelf with a good variety of books and tourism guides (check out Absolutely Barbados by Julian Armfield). The piece de resistance was the 2nd floor deck with the cool breeze, a chorus of many species of birds and whistling frogs and several green monkey sightings. We ate most meals on the deck while enjoying the beautiful flowers and foliage.
Annette was lovely, she came to clean twice during the week, was very friendly and shared her knowledge of the island. The hosts arranged to have Angela pick us up at the airport which was great as it would be a challenge to find the property.
There was a miscommunication at check-in (we were not provided with the code) however it got sorted out quickly and we had the perfect vacation going forward. Ian and Cecily were very responsive hosts and we thank them for sharing their beautiful home in Barbados. Loved the home, the island and the friendly people. We hope to return again and would definitely stay at Somnia!
