ECO Lifestyle & Lodge
Tucked away on the hills overlooking the dramatic seascape of the east coast, ECO Lifestyle + Lodge, formerly known as Sea-U Guest House, is the realized dream of New York natives Kyle & Maryam, who traded the hustle of city life for a slower, more meaningful pace when they moved to Barbados several years ago. With their young family in tow, they’ve firmly established themselves in the local community, setting down roots when they purchased the Bathsheba Guest House in early 2018. Combining their love of travel and adventure with a desire to live a more conscious and healthy lifestyle, Kyle & Maryam are thoughtfully evolving ECO to reflect their balanced approach to living life to the fullest. They’ve renovated the Lodge to reflect their natural and easy-going style with inviting white hammocks hung between palm trees and decks made for kicking back – they’re the perfect spots to chill out with your feet up or get some extra work done via free WiFi. The 10 guest rooms are designed with comfort in mind; up-cycled mahogany furniture, soft linens and artisanal bath products invite you to unwind. You’ll find personal touches throughout, from items collected on Kyle & Maryam’s travels to inspiring quotes popping up throughout the property. All rooms face east – our view of the eastern horizon is unmatched; each day starts with an illuminating sunrise and ends with a sunset drenched in color.
