The hotel

The Savannah Beach Club is a friendly resort offering a warm Caribbean welcome and a relaxed vibe. Set right on the beach, within a UNESCO heritage site, with easy access to the historic Garrison area, you can walk across the road to watch the changing of the sentry ceremony at the main guard house. The resort is great for families, with a separate teen hangout that's great for the older ones who want some fun and independence. Whilst they're occupied with a range of games, grab yourself a cocktail at Drifter's Beach Bar and enjoy those ocean views and the live entertainment on offer.

This is a reasonably small resort although had very good facilities. Staff were friendly & often got to know the visitors & would ask about our day & the trips we were doing. They seemed to genuinely care about the visitors having a good holiday. The beach was very clean; I don't think I saw any rubbish e.g. plastic bottles at all. There wasn't lot to see when snorkeling at the beach at the resort although Pebbles beach & Carlisle Bay were both close. There were plenty of sun loungers on the beach. There are 3 restaurants; all had good quality food. On one of the nights we had dinner on the beach at the Drifters restaurant which was followed by a show with fire breathers & limbo dancers which was very entertaining. The pool weaving through the resort was lovely and very relaxing. We had a suite which was spacious and comfortable. We had a Nespresso machine in the suite which was regularly stocked with capsules. There were loungers on the balcony & we had a view of the beach. You could hear the music from the evening entertainment at Drifters from our room although it didn't go on until very late; probably until around 10pm. Kid's club was a big highlight. Kerri & her team provided a very high quality service. They were enthusiastic & very accommodating. The kid's club room has games such as table tennis & air hockey. They also run additional activities such as rock painting, beach walks, slime making & Mario Kart competitions. My son (aged 10 years) particularly enjoyed it & made lots of friends. The resort is well located in Barbados. It is around a 20 mins drive from the airport. It is close to the horse racing track. Early in the morning (around 6-7am), you can walk to Pebbles beach in around 5-10 mins & watch the race horses being washed in the sea. You can have photos with the horses & ride some of them along the beach. George Washington house is around 10 mins walk from the resort & that is worth a visit. Bridgetown is around a 30-40 mins walk & there is a lot to see & do there. There are lots of small bars on the way where you can pop in to have a drink. We visited Jenny's Run Bar which was great fun. Read less

Thank you Savannah Beach for yet another amazing relaxing stay. It was greatly appreciated you acknowledged us as 15 year returners and were so welcoming. We struggle to understand any negative reviews as this hotel is excellent value for money. We are fortunate to be able to take other more adventurous holidays as well but this is our little haven in the sun, our favourite hotel on the island. If you want total luxury pampered by robots check out Sandy Lane Bay and your credit card limit! Thank you to all staff, yet again for an another amazing time, will keep on coming back.

We were first timers to Barbados and looking forward to a lovely stress free relaxing holiday by the sea . Firstly let me start with the positives . Location of hotel close to airport so transfer time was a breeze . The hotel rooms are large and comfortable beds with fabulous air conditioning . The rooms are cleaned daily and towels and linen exchanged . There is free wifi across the hotel which has great coverage . We had read reviews of the staff being super friendly and helpful ? This was not our experience at all . Everything was slow and seemed a bit chaotic particularly at meal times . When you ask for anything you get a sharp response with an intake of breath and There are three restaurants but they only open odd nights with the main area being a buffet at drifters . You are asked to book dinner when you attend breakfast(odd to say the least) even when you do and arrive on time there is not a table for you and yes more waiting !!! Food is good but very repetitive and after a week. you yearn for something different . Cold drinks also an issue with drinks in Rachel’s being flat and warm . . Entertainment is really poor and only on occasionally and otherwise hotel comes to a quiet end about 10pm . We booked a car for three days to explore thank goodness we needed to get out . The lady who organised the j car hire in front reception from sun tours was our only super helpful and friendly staff member .The beach is beautiful but sadly you cannot swim unless you have skin like a turtle due to rocks and coral . The facilities of this hotel are no where near a four star hotel and could do with lots of work to upgrade and give a much better customer experience. Tui need to take note of these reviews and update their brochure . i will be raising my concerns with TUI on return to uk Read less

We needed a hotel for a couple of nights pre cruise and this hotel was suggested by the staff in the Virgin Holiday shop.

We needed a hotel for a couple of nights pre cruise and this hotel was suggested by the staff in the Virgin Holiday shop. We arrived later than expected due to Virgin Atlantic not putting our luggage on the plane (we weren’t alone in this there were over 100 people without luggage on our flight) All the food options had finished so we just had a couple of drinks by the beach. The following morning we went to breakfast. I was rather rudely told I shouldn’t have entered the way I did and pointed to the correct place. All the staff, with the exception of the lady who cooked the omelettes, we encountered at breakfast were rude. Service was poor. At least the food was edible though. We only ate 1 evening meal which was I think supposed to be a Caribbean buffet. There was a very limited choice and it was poor quality. Drinks were just OK. A few brands but also a lot of stuff I had never heard of. Room was spacious, bathroom in need of a refurb. The bed is so high to get in and out of. We had to go down a miserable corridor to get to our room and it was near where all the empty bottles are stored so was continually noisy. There were many maintenance issues. Broken tiles etc. The lift was pathetically slow and one had a badly broken mirror in it. It all just looked unloved and definitely not worth the money they charge. I was only glad that we chose the O2 Beach Club in St Lawrence post cruise. More expensive but far superior to Savannah. 2 nights in Savannah was more than enough for us. Read less
