This place has the WOW factor in bucket loads. The location is ideal - just far enough out of town to be peaceful, but a few minutes drive to the main drag of Bridgetown.

When looking for a place to stay between Christmas and New Year the only place that had four nights in a row available was Rickaty, and what a happy event that turned out to be.
