The staff are friendly, the food is great. Geat hotel for a family vacation, or a romantic couples getaway. Huge pool and the beach is right outside your door. If you are celebrating a special occasion they know how to make it all about you. One of my favorite hotels in Barbados!

Well, beautiful pool and beach. But with 2 rooms, one the toilet didn’t flush, the other…. A/C was broken, telephone did not work and ceiling fan never worked. A/C was fixed 2d day. Phone as well. Also, there is no daily room straitening. It’s fine, but the sand on the floor really needed a broom. I’m not thrilled and frankly was disappointed. … Read more

I just can’t help it. Read less

This was our first stop (after the airport) on our first Caribbean vacation. We had heard about the warm, welcoming friendliness of the Barbadian people. Well, you couldn't tell it by the staff here; what a surly bunch!

Well, you couldn't tell it by the staff here; what a surly bunch! In addition, much of the hotel is in some disrepair; to their credit, there did seem to be a lot of maintenance going on, so hopefully that will change. On the plus side, they have a very attractive pool area, some truly prime beachfront, and the included breakfast was far better than expected. Read less

It’s a good hotel. Housekeeping was kind.It has a lot of potential. Customer service needs to be worked on. Very awful customer service. Didn’t use lots of the services. The kids room was closed. Right on the beach. Swim up bar. They need to clean the pool daily.
Image of the Tripadvisor rating Coasting on its past reputation. Old fashioned and poorly maintained.

Never previously stayed here before November 2024, but were told by locals in previous years it was a good hotel. Booking in the hotel took absolutely ages dealt with painstakingly by one person. First night rainwater was coming into our room, and one wall was entirely wet to the touch. Water dripping in the corridor, and the carpet was wet to walk on. We got moved to an icebox alternate room that was a bit better but without towels etc. No meet and greet, room not cleaned for first three days or bedding changed either, had to request cleaning. Housekeeping service diabolical, staff were surly, and still cleaning and changing bedding at 6.00 and 7.00 p.m. in the evening with dozens of people waiting in reception who just wanted to get to their rooms. No entertainment we asked, and staff did not seem to know if any happened. Pool often closed off and could not be used. Would not stay here again. One member of staff went beyond called Sophia, who arranged an excursion for us, and asked the next day if we had enjoyed our trip. Read less
