Stayed here the last week in October with my Daughter. Had an amazing time, fabulous location and wonderful welcoming staff. Comfortable bed and pillows. The food drink and entertainment fabulous . Breakfast was superb with fantastic cooks . Nakitas pancakes 🥞 the best totally delicious.

We have just returned from a 2 week holiday, had a lovely time, all staff are brilliant, and always look after you. We have been to this hotel many times and love it. However, it has changed over the years, but we will be back.

This place is a hidden gem. I hate naming only a few as everyone was wonderful, however Samantha & Tanesha we FABULOUS!! We never had to ask for a thing with these two, Samantha is like a family friend so very pleasant and easy to talk with. Tanisha has a smile so Big it covers the barbados island. This hotel is wonderful yes its a Lil older but the services is way beyond what you get elsewhere.

Just a few things from our recent stay . Room. 1. The ill fitting door made it very noisy, with the delivery road, customer traffic and the main road itself. 2. Poor maintenance of lights on the stairs, making it a bit dangerous at night. 3. Why only one bedside cabinet and light? With no access to power to charge mobile devices. Surely there should be two, each with separate lights. 4. The only bedside cabinet also houses the fridge which is running 24/7. It should be elsewhere in the room as its very noisy. 5. The bathroom mirror frame prevents the use of the plug in the sink. Try it, you'll see. 6. Bed was extremely comfortable. Pillows were luxurious. 7. Shower exceptional and reliable. 8. Despite lots of notices about security, our patio door didn't actually lock. Even with the lock set, the door could be opened from outside and inside. Complex. 1. The Thursday night entertainment "DJ Radar" got upset that people weren't dancing and kept stopping the music and then berating the audience. In the end he packed up like a petulant child and finished early. The Friday and Saturday entertainment was so much better. Maybe DJ Radar needs reminding that he is there to entertain us, not the other way around. 2. The staff at the Sunset and Beach bar are wonderful. Extremely warm and friendly, even when rushed off their feet. Nothing was too much trouble for them. 3. Smoking. It's 2024, surely you should be a smoke free site by now. There's nothing worse than having to weave your way through a huddle of smokers by the restaurant doors, or having smoke blowing into the bar seating areas. Maybe the smokers need special smoking areas to satisfy their habit like they do at Disney World. 4. Love thy neighbours. Having the cleanup crew remove all the glasses and debris from the public beach and wall adjacent to the steps towards Sandy Lane Beach.

We just checked out yesterday. Upon checking out was given a bill for over 300.00 for resort taxes. 47.00 per night!!!! Totally ridiculous!!! Spa staff were very nice but other staff members not so friendly. Servers at the restaurants were not very friendly at all. Always had to wait for drinks or your dishes to be taken off the table. Seemed like they were doing you a favor. Buffett was not much of a variety at all. After 5pm there is no place to get late night snacks. Not very accommodating. Besides the rooms, resort was very run down. In need of major upgrade!!!! The pool area was very dirty . Most resorts hose down the area or use a blower to remove debris , but during whole week nothing was done. I complained n nothing was still not done. This resort does not cater to their customers at all. Very unfortunate as it was a nice peaceful stay and located in very safe area.

We do not have enough good things to say about our stay at the Royal Pavilion! From the moment we arrived, the staff was accommodating, helpful, flexible, and kind. The beach and pool could not have been more accessible, and we spent ample time each day in both. All three restaurants served excellent food (our favorites were dinner at Taboras and the breakfast buffet at Palm Terrace), and the rooms were clean, cool, and had stunning water views. Taxis were easy to come by to get to restaurants and sites, and the spa services (massages) were delightful. We cannot wait to be back already!

Michelle Sutter

The beach and views at the Fairmont are nothing short of spectacular the rooms are lovely we spent a lot of time either at the beach or on are balconies enjoying the amazing views everyone was super friendly the food was always good. It is on the expensive side but it is a lovely place to stay and we enjoyed it thoroughly the only thing that surprised us where the crickets at night time. I have never heard so many crickets it was actually quite loud you don't hear them on the beach side but you definitely hear them on the Courtyard side just FYI you may need earplugs but Hey there are worse things to listen to lol

Me and my Wife had the pleasure of spending our honeymoon here. The place was great. What stood out was the excellent, personable, kind customer service provided by the staff. Such great people overall, but a special shoutout to Antonio for the Cheffette order and Simon who was such a nice guy. Thanks everyone!

If you’re looking for a true 5 star luxury hotel to stay at, This fairmont will leave you sorely disappointed. We checked into our room, and found out that no rooms had working mini bars, my night table had some debris still left on it, and the dated rooms was showing signs of extreme wear. The silver on the mirror was coming off, there were light switches that were painted black that were chipping and the bedding was hard and lumpy. The televisions, while even having a button for Netflix, was not equipped to act as a smart TV, something very sad this day and age. Some of the service staff were very nice, and others would avoid eye contact or interaction, not even looking up when you stood at the front desk. The rooms manager Michael was great, and tried to do his best to make this tired old hotel feel nicer than it is. The hotel breakfast is budget business hotel quality, and at least at those hotels you can make a fresh waffle and not eat one that’s been sitting in a steam table getting crunchy on the bottom and soggy on top. There was no spread of juices, or anything that would be expected at a luxury resort breakfast bar, just the same recycled foods, overcooked breakfast meats and yogurt. They didn’t inform us, nor others, that they had the ability to make espresso drinks until our 5th day there, but in day 6, that machine was broken. The location is ok if you want to be far away from everyone, but the beach is decent. We found that if we wanted to do a rum tour or go to a restaurant it was 35-45 minutes to most places. We had a car, so it was ok, but some of the rum distilleries quoted us $130 Bajian ($65 USD)for round trip. If you have a car, their parking lot is in disrepair, broken pavement and pot holes. The pool is rather small, but you do have warm ocean water steps away, but usually luxury hotels will have an amazing pool, and a beach, this one just rested on having a beach. Overall nothing horrible happened, the staff did bring a mini birthday cake to celebrate my birthday twice, but it was by no means luxury, or like anything else from a Fairmount, or upper class Accor hotel.

The hotel is beautiful, and the service was magnificent 👌 the room was breathtaking 😍 and great customer service. I was well received ☺️ and the buffet was top-notch 👌. Thank you for having me. Clo

Lots of goods and lots of bads —- We spent a week at the Colony Club Hotel in April 2024. It was a lovely week and we had a good time. There were lots of negatives and lots of positives! One disaster is how unfriendly the staff are. With a handful of exceptions of nice staff, the majority of the rest were somewhere between ignorant and almost harshly unfriendly. Even when you approached the staff with a bright smile and "good morning", there was usually no warm or friendly response. We have never felt so unwelcome anywhere. And it wasn't just us who were treated so rudely, but all the guests. I found two small birds kept in a barren cage next to the restaurant very unkind. This is good for nothing and terrible to look at! The hotel is getting on in years, but is expected to be renovated from the end of April 2024. The fantastic beach deserves a special mention! Unbeatably beautiful! The free water sports facilities are also great! The quality of the live music in the evenings (which changed daily) was excellent and provided a wonderful atmosphere during the very good food. The lush green gardens are just as beautiful. So the possibilities are there!!! Probably being renovated now too... now if they could just find nice and friendly staff it could be great.

ok ok

Spectacular beach and walkable (on the beach) to other properties. Propey had a nice feel and design. Attentive staff, but keep in mind you're in the Caribbean where things tend to move slow

Brian Newell

My wife and I have just spent 12 nights at the Colony Club hotel. It is probably the best experience in an hotel we have had. With great thanks to all the staff from the kitchen, waitresses,waiters and reception. We cannot mention them all by name but special notes for Brian , John and Monica who catered for our every need. This is the only way to thank you all for our amazing holiday. Brian and Elizabeth Newell.👏😉

Ian McCusker

This is the very first time EVER; I’ve given a bad review. I’ve always given fantastic reviews, to all the people that have given me a brilliant service and deserve the commendation because they’re genuinely outstanding..!! However: The thought of other people, paying for what they think is going to be an expensive beautiful luxury holiday, for some - a lifetime holiday, that they’ve worked really hard for years for - Fills me with absolute horror. They’re going into a situation that’s been/being created, for reasons unknown to them. 1) Meet and Greet non existent - carried my own luggage in. 2) Get to the room, a little late for dinner. My partner continuously tries to call room service and reception: No answer. In the end bless; she had to go to reception and do it(last thing yo want to do when you’ve just arrived). The eye rolling, sharp intakes of breath started at this point. 3) How this place is marketed and sold to people, is a lie. It’s not fit for purpose. It doesn’t need renovating, it needs knocking down. 4)Under staffed. So badly, every member of staff is miserable or rude. Why you might ask? Well if everyone/guests are constantly moaning at them, and for good reasons, the whole atmosphere and vibe is just horrible. 5) Breakfast 07:30am. No chance. Staff are just turning up, and the vibe is horrible; it’s like watching a sponsored go slow. 6) People queueing for 30-40 minutes, all looking at a completely empty restaurant. Actually that’s not true. There are about 30-40 birds all sitting around the building waiting to pounce. There’s even a birds nest in the ceiling. It was like eating in a great big bird cage. 7) Everything in the place is bent/wonky/not straight/bodged up, honestly it is ridiculous. 8) Drain pipes and guttering broken, all wonky. Plumbing everywhere is failing or bodged. Pipes to toilets were so poorly fitted because nothing is level, you just know it’s only a matter of time. 9) Beach closed for a day because of raw sewage being pumped into it. Red flags were up, the smell was horrendous 10) Sandbags outside hotel rooms in case of flooding; even the newly renovated one. 11) Black mould on most of the outside paintwork. 12) The roof on the building is seriously dangerous. As you look up, or over a balcony, nothing is in situ; it’s all just falling. 13) pool bar never opened on time; the time it took for people to get served or worst still look at their drink made and sitting on the side for 15 minutes definitely made frayed tensions, turn up and say hello on more than one occasion. 14) Food was rubbish and cold, dangerous really when none of the breakfast buffet pans had heat working properly so the food could be a correct temperature. Even when you got back to your wonky table with bird crap on it, the birds wouldn’t chance it. 15) The pool…!! Looks fabulous in photographs; in reality it’s diabolical, it should never have been reopened. The paint around the edges has never been done properly; even a newby DIYer would know, that a bit of masking tape would have avoided hundreds and hundreds of paint runs, I’ve got to be honest I don’t know how it’s even happened. All the pool bottoms are worn with great big worn out patches all around it 16) There’s only one men’s and ladies loo. And it’s not near the pool. When you read the reviews properly, this has been going on for a long time. I asked from day 1 to be relocated, messaged the Rep, and asked continuously/daily..!! It’s not worth anything like the cleverly worded brochures. I was fuming, totally ripped off. I just can’t believe these huge companies, that know we put faith in them; are doing it to people. I heard the phrase "it’s just not acceptable" about a million times from nearly every guest; this is really really serious. PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE IT’S MISERABLE..!! *ONLY 5 VIEWS**ONLY 5 VIEW**ONLY 5 VIEWS*

D

Awful service throughout from the front desk to restaurants to cleaning staff. SPA massages not only expensive but not worth a quarter the price…don’t seem trained at all. Cleaning staff left room open and unlocked during stay. Room not cleaned properly, and not ready for check in. No communication skills. Overall, understaffed and under-trained, and with very poor attitude.

M. Breaux

Very nice comfortable setting. Staff is exceptionally courteous and welcoming. It is definitely worth return visits.

Tina Potter

Excellent location, extremely friendly staff. Food was of very good quality buffet style with occasional waiter events. New Year was amazing! All inclusive was superb.

Philip Riley

A fantastic hotel to stay at. Super friendly staff beautiful weather. We did a couple of trips Mount Gay Rum Distillery & Island Safari....well worth it. Last day we had a driver Owen for 4½hrs & he took us all over the island to places we wanted to go & others that he knew we'd like....awesome day, awesome holiday....we will be back 😊🍸

EJ McCallion

A huge, belated thanks to the staff at the Tamarind for making our little family reunion/big B-day week-long trip a massive success. We were a group of 16, aged 2 - 80, and everyone had a blast. The kids loved the pools, the parents loved the bars by the pools, I enjoyed slipping away to the adjacent beach oasis. The free water sports were a hit, the food was excellent, the ocean views from the suites were breathtaking. The staff were knowledgeable and friendly, and were pros at dealing with all sorts. We had an amazing trip. I hope to go back to the Tamarind someday and I highly recommend it.

John Crook

Beautiful hotel with a stunning location, just wow. The food was adequate and sometimes amazing. Breakfast buffet style, but do go and see Ether on the egg station, but if you order an omelette, don't ask for cheese until last, you've been warned. Lunch the sane buffet style unless you order food from the bar, but expect a slow delivery. Evening meal, sometimes off a menu other times buffet, it seems to depend on how they feel that day. Also, book your restaurant times asap for your evening meal. The beach was small but adequate, but the pool was more than enough for me. I do wish they had poolside waiters, but considering our experience with the hospitality staff, it may have been a blessing in disguise. The rooms are dated, but they suit the surroundings and are cleaned to a high standard. If you have a chance eat at the restaurant next door. It's included in your stay, but book it as soon as you arrive, the views are stunning. Unfortunately, waitresses and bar Staff were the only things that let this place down, 90% of them that is, the rest couldn't do enough for you. It may be that they had a bad week, but either way, it put a downer on our holiday.

Kayla McCue

My fiancé and I just returned from our stay, and despite our initial nerves after reading reviews, we had an incredible experience. We arrived early in the morning, and the staff kindly stored our luggage and quickly arranged an early check-in. Everyone, from the staff to fellow guests, was exceptionally friendly and courteous. The food was fantastic, with breakfast and lunch buffets offering a variety of options that changed daily, while dinner alternated between buffet and regular menu. There was always something delicious to enjoy. Whether we were relaxing by the beach or in the lobby, the staff frequently checked in to see if we needed anything, and by the end of our stay, some even remembered us, which made us feel truly valued. I highly recommend trying the water sports; we had a blast tubing and laughed more than ever. We can't wait to return to Waves on our next trip to Barbados!

Brad Smalling

Wife and I vacationed here in July of 2024. We have visited Marriott properties and all-inclusive resorts in several different countries. This was our worst experience to date. The staff was friendly, but the service was beyond slow. We had to ask multiple times to get more water refills at meals. We offered if they would give us a pitcher we would refill ourselves, but they apparently have a policy to not allow that. Then they promised to be more prompt, and we still waiting constantly for refills. The same happened at the adult-only pool. Servers came by so infrequently, we would order a beverage and it would take a long time for the server to return. Then we would be finished and want another but constantly had to wait. There was no bar open anywhere near the pool for us get out and order something ourselves or we would have happily done so. The servers, seemingly had to cross the street to the beach-side part of the property (which isn't adults-only) to get orders then walk back. It was frustrating and unenjoyable. The food options were limited and meals were mediocre at best, so we actually cut our trip short and left after a 3 days even though we were supposed to stay for 5 days. The worst part of the experience was that management showed a deep level of concern as to why we were leaving (which was great) but then made promises to refund our points we used for the days we didn't stay. It was a nice gesture and appreciated as we did not ask for anything. Three months has past, I've checked in periodically but no action has been taken. I continue to get told it is because of inaction at the corporate level and the resort seems to indicate that it is out of their hands now. It would have been better if they never offered any restitution at all if they couldn't ensure to follow through with that offer. The country of Barbados is beautiful. The people were kind. But I would not recommend staying at this property.

Tao Ng

Property is nice enough especially if all the facilities are open. It’s all inclusive but limited options and unfriendly/unhelpful staff so next to impossible to get anything in a timely fashion. If you want a cappuccino ordered during breakfast it’s a minimum of 20 minutes wait. Any small request -you’re given a fake disdain smile. Small gym with no weight machines. The adult only section is across the street and no beach views. The Asian fusion restaurant has been closed for months with only one restaurant option opened for meals. Mosquitos in the room. Restaurant staff never come over and check on you. The rest of the staff are friendly. Don’t Would not stay here again.

Jalal Greene

Staff was fantastic very friendly, helpful and professional. It was low keyed and quiet. The beach was small but very nice. The facility was very clean and well maintained. The food was very good. We would definitely come here again

FA FLEET

Wave outdid themselves, everything was excellent and even the anniversary surprise in the room. We will definitely be back, the food was nice and all you can drink was my thing. Thank you guys for making our anniversary celebration special.

Sebastian

The Coral Reef Club in Barbados is pure paradise! The stunning beachfront location, luxurious rooms, and top-notch service make for an unforgettable stay. The staff are incredibly warm and attentive, going above and beyond to ensure every moment is perfect. The gardens are beautiful, the food is delicious, and the spa is world-class. Whether you're relaxing by the pool or exploring the island, this resort is the perfect! Thanks for having us, we will definitely be coming back!

Debra Streich

e had a delightful and lovely stay at the Coral Reef Club, from the time that we arrived until the time that we left. the caliber of service was amazing! Everyone is so friendly and attentive. We were so surprised when we checked in. Our flight was later in the day, and it was about 11:15pm when we arrived. We were greeted with, "We thought you might be hungry and left refreshments in your room." We were and were so appreciative of the delicious sandwiches! When we left, one of the breakfast servers said, "I know this is your favorite table and reserved it for you!" How extraordinary thoughtful! Our stay included breakfast, which was wonderful every morning. In addition to the buffet with eggs, sausage, bacon, croissants, fresh fruit, yogurt, etc., it includes a made-to-order station of fresh omelets, waffles, and French toast. The morning standard coffee is French-press Lavazza! Unlike other resorts that we have stayed at, there was plenty of seating and we could choose where we sat. Because the resort is located on the west coast, the sunsets from the lounge were stunning and it was a great place to relax at the end of the day. The resort does not have many ocean view rooms; however, the entire property is a stunning tropical garden. Our room had a huge balcony with a beautiful view of the grounds. The room was comfortable. The hotel has an excellent location. After touring the island, we found that Holetown is one of the best places to stay with excellent restaurants and shopping. The hotel is located two properties away along the coast from Folkstone Marine Park which has one of the best reefs on the island. Guests at the resort are very friendly and delightful. Given that Barbados is part of the British Commonwealth, most of the guests are British. Many have stayed at the resort previously multiple times and even together year-after-year. But of course, why would one consider staying elsewhere when you can stay here? We would love to stay here again on a return trip to Barbados.

cdromgarcia

Very charming hotel. Rooms are really beautiful keeping the Barbados colonial style, as well as spacious and comfortable. Excellent for tranquility and good taste lovers.

Maureen Smith

Really lovely hotel, unfortunately, I personally found a couple of the staff to be rude and totally inappropriate! which made the stay an uncomfortable one! I must add 98% of the staff were helpful, respectful and friendly.

shannon thornton

I cannot say enough about this wonderful resort. From the minute we arrived we were greeted by the reception desk warmly, quickly offered a beverage while we waited the short 5 minutes for Prince to collect our luggage and deliver to our room. The manager walked us to our room to give us a quick tour. The water is clear and calm, towels are always readily available. Beach chairs with umbrellas are always available anytime of the day, beach service to include anything from ice water to rum punch is quick and pleasant. The housekeeping staff keeps the room crisp and clean, to include turndown service. There is no need to leave the resort for food every meal we have had has been wonderful, with great service. I do not think I have ever met a staff that loves their job as much as the Coral Reef staff. We walked to Holetown, it was a quick 15 minute walk, at all times we felt very safe both in and off the resort. This is by far our favorite trip to the Caribbean.

Jean Carlos Montilla Hidalgo

This splendid hotel captivates with its unparalleled excellence, where the devoted employees extend a level of service that goes beyond expectations. The opulent rooms, adorned with elegance, and the exquisite culinary creations elevate the experience to sheer delight. The pool area, a haven of tranquility, adds an enchanting touch, ensuring a truly magnificent stay.

Marscha Dalligan

Really impressed with the hotel however we found the majority of the staff rude , rolling their eyes in front of us & behind guests backs … we are a friendly polite & sociable couple but this made no difference to the waiting staff & supervisor at breakfast, lunch & dinner . Destiny ,front of house was amazing & new so I hope she won’t get tarnished by the older staff who clearly don’t respect the clients . We also had a hand written tip added to one of our dinner bills which we forgot to add to …… not impressed. We will not return to to just the attitude of the staff …. Such a shame

Kristina Prieto

Rest relax and food. Best Vacation yet. The staff was wonderful. We Celebrated 25th wedding anniversary, and had a great time. Can't wait to return.

Shahira K

Private small hotel with absolutely lovely design and lots a plants 🌱 Staff is GREAT, Daniel and Annette made sure we felt welcome! Great thanks for your hospitality! See pics for the best items from menu and make sure to try desserts. Highly recommend!

Bree

From beginning to end, my stay was nothing short of incredible! Visited Barbados for my 30th and this hotel made my stay on the island 10 times better. From the variety of food choices, peaceful scenery, lovely guests, location, the 24hr pool, open late bar and (most importantly) THE STAFF! I truly felt at home and completely welcomed. And it was genuine interactions and culturally dynamic conversations. We were able to engage with Bajan cultures and lifestyle daily. Best cocktails thanks to Rasheed, Odaine, Rashawn and Kyle. Best dining services thanks to Lashonda (Dimples) and Sabrina! Carl, Mark, Sophia, Stefan, Stadia, Armani, and Shane made sure we were good everytime we crossed paths. Security in general were friendly and easy to talk to. Sabrina and Destiny kept us together with taxi's and bookings. And special thanks to my fellow cancerian who welcomed us, took care of us the entire stay and went above and beyond every chance she got, ALANA! Lashonda even took time out her day and made me a birthday message card. Little gestures like that, mean so much! There are so many others who contributed to this incandescent experience! Thank you to Treasure Beach for allowing us to safely and freely explore all that we wanted to experience in Barbados. By far the most authentic country and culture I've come across in my travels. Staying here made my return to this island (AND hotel) a certainty.

Cole Montgomery

The resort is in a nice location. The views are beautiful. Our room was ok, and the bed wasn’t bad. The bathroom was also fine. The fridge was rarely stocked and it was a struggle to get water bottles. We had to repeatedly go to the nearby coffee shop to get small bottles are water and bring it back to our room. There are two restaurants. One is open for a breakfast buffet and also opened for a sit down dinner. The other restaurant is only open during lunch time and is a buffet. The food during breakfast and lunch was fine. However the food for dinner was not impressive. The portions were very small. I ordered a steak one night with shrimp and was extremely surprised about how small it was and how there was only four small shrimp with it. The beach is beautiful. There are two separate areas on a large beach where you can sit with some nice chairs that have shade. There is only a small area where you can swim without hitting the rocks. There are water sports that are also free. We went kayaking and had a blast and also went tubing which was very fun. The pools are nice and the cave bar was a cool spot. We had a great time, but there is room for improvement.

Victoria COCKING

Had a wonderful time at this hotel. The location is fantastic. Service was brilliant. Clean . The staff were fantastic. My husband left his wallet in the safe . The hotel kindly email us to let us know And kept it safe for us till we were able to collect it . Excellent service thank you . We will definitely be back .

Sara Helmy

From the moment we arrived, the service was disappointing. No one greeted us, and although waiting for a room is understandable, we waited over an hour while others who arrived later were given their rooms. After demanding to speak with a manager, our room was suddenly ready. To make matters worse, the bell boy didn’t even carry our bags. The staff, from receptionists to bartenders, were consistently rude, unfriendly, and made us feel like an inconvenience. The beach is also disappointing, with so many rocks that enjoying the water is nearly impossible. This hotel does not deserve its four-star rating. Believe the negative reviews – they’re accurate. I regret not listening to them and will be disputing the charges for this stay.

Shaun H

I visited Barbados for the first time in September 2023 with my mum, it was her second visit to the island. We had an amazing time. We received a surprise room upgrade to a sea view room when we checked in. We were greeted with punch and the staff were very friendly from the first moment. Special shoutout to Terence who took the time to check on me on a day I was a bit under the weather. Some say the rooms and hotel are dated, but I felt the place had a nice character to it. One night our AC broke and was fixed very quickly. The pools are small but they are great for taking a little break from the heat. The buffet breakfast was always pleasant and there were different options available each night for our evening meal. During the day there were options for lunch and the coffee/wine bar was also a great place to relax. I particularly liked the swim up/cave bar. There were a few bars at the hotel and there were plenty of delicious cocktail options and other drinks. The hotel is right on the beach and the live music at night time added to the atmosphere of the place. The whole place had a very chilled out feel to it. As the island is so small, all of our trips were within short travel distance from the hotel. Overall it was a great experience here. The staff at Crystal Cove could not do enough for us and I wish I could have stayed for longer.

Sylvia Robinson

We were very hopeful of this hotel but ended up being extremely disappointed. The room was not what we had expected - we wanted an ocean view but the view was blocked by a palm tree so this meant that the actual ocean view was vey limited. The hotel appeared to have seen better days as it had a "tired look". The curtains in the room were dirty. The clothes dryer provided on the balcony had definitely seen better days and was quite rusty - so much so that it was an embarrassment. The bath had definitely seen better days and was in dire need of replacement. The bed was very disappointing - it was a combination of two single beds pushed together with a double/queen matress placed on top. I was actually happy to check out so that I could return home to my more comfortable bed. The food was also disappointing. The only saving grace was the fact that, for the most part, the staff were extremely happy to assist you. We had spent a lot of money for our one week stay and I have to say that this was money wasted and I am very unhappy that I feel like this but have to be honest about my review. Our room/stay could not at all be described as "luxurious" or "great value". We will definitely not be returning to this hotel any time soon.

Dhwani Rajvaidya

I am incredibly disappointed with the management of the Elegant chain . We had a confirmed booking at Waves Barbados, but they changed our hotel last minute, offering us their sister property, The Coral then The House etc. This was extremely inconvenient and caused a lot of stress as we had planned everything around staying at Waves. To make matters worse, communication was dreadful. They took ages to reply to our emails, leaving us in the dark and anxious about our accommodation. This level of service is unacceptable, especially given the reputation and cost of staying at such an establishment. I sincerely hope our stay improves, but this has left a very bad taste in our mouths. Avoid if you want a hassle-free vacation.

Dylan Langer

Stayed for our honeymoon. It started great, The staff were very friendley, and the views are superb. However management descided our honeymoon is unimportant. They overbooked the hotel, someone did a buyout. We were forced to pack and move nexdoor to a different hotel with minimal notice, and no compensation. We were not told at check-in. I would warn against long trips here. We would have just cut the honeymoon a day shorter if we had any notice. Worst part is leaving a sour tasts at the end of what was supposed to be a fantastic honeymoon. Not shure we will be returning. UPDATE: This hotels management is a nightmare. Even Marriot had a hard time reaching the house to resolve our issues. We managed to get a partial refund after months of hounding. We won't ever visit here again. And you sould stay someplace else.

Heather Pafchek

The House was a wonderful situated boutique hotel on the most beautiful beach. The staff was very attentive and very sweet. A shout out to Andrew and Kobie (spelling on Kobie). They were great at their jobs and were so personable. The food was great and the bar was always hoping. From oysters and champagne on the beach to the rum punch being served beach side, we had a fabulous time.

KIMBERLY LANDERS

My husband and I stayed at this resort for our Anniversary. We were very disappointed in the customer service. They gave us a room that did not lock. Only the first door locked not the second door that’s used to enter the room. We had to push furniture up against the door to feel safe the first night because no one could help us. The next day we communicated with them about our door not locking so they assured us it would be fixed. My husband and I went back to our room after being provided a different key. The door was already unlocked so we assumed the key was working. We left back out for awhile and upon entering our room the second door did not lock. We made CS aware and they again told us they had it fixed. Well my husband seen the staff climb over the balcony and went in thru the patio door to unlock the door so we could enter our room. Once again no one was available to fix the lock. Again we had to push furniture up to the door to feel safe. Next issue the room had a smell. It reminded me of a sewer smell. We asked staff if we could change rooms and they told us the resort was sold out. So we was forced to stay in that room with sewer smell. Lastly, we scheduled a massage a week before arrival. When we went down to the spa no one was there. We waited there almost an hour an no one showed. They finally told us the lady who works in the spa called in. I asked why weren’t notified instead of wasting an hour of our day sitting here. No one had an answer for us. Our Anniversary trip was ruined. Not to mention the amount of money spent to get to Barbados

Having had 10 days there found the place brilliant but a bit tired, staff were excellent very willing to help at all times. Loads of walks on the beach, people very friendly. Had a tour round the island and found the driver Charles very knowledgeable. Had a catamaran trip (cool running) the staff and food brilliant.

A good find off the normal tourist trail. Good value given the location and great that you get access to the beach club right on the front. Rooms are a reasonable size and staff are really helpful. It’s about a 15 min walk to the start of the main town so you might want a car or download the pickup app.

Traveled to Barbados for a wedding with family. 3 adults and 2 kids. The room was very nice, 1 bathroom with bedroom, pull out sofa bed and a roll away bed. Setup very comfy. The problem was these big behind roaches. I don't deal with that at home, why would I want it on vacation!! The sprayed the first time we complained and found the dead ones thruout the rooms. (Son in law removed them) Second complaint they sprayed again with no relief!! Found even more came out. We were scared to move! Upon checking out they didn't ask how was your stay, any problems? She was very unfriendly!! Don't recommend at all. Too bad for such a beautiful island. Please pick another resort.

A great little hotel, tucked away from all the noise and traffic, but still within walking distance to the beach and shops. Our room, the 2 bedroom apartment, was a great size and space with lots of useful amenities.

Big, clean, nicely decorated self-catering apartments in a delightful area at a really good price. It's got a nice little pool as well.

We stayed for a week in December. The room (number 11) was spacious and very well equipped. There’s a bedroom, en suite shower and loo, dressing room with safe, living / dining room with big screen TV and small kitchen with oven, microwave, fridge / freezer, kettle, toaster and filter coffee machine. There’s also a balcony with two chairs, a table and drying rack that overlooks the pool. The pool is a good size, really clean and gets the sun all day. There are comfortable sun loungers with umbrellas. The staff are all really friendly, polite and professional - a credit to the hotel. The walk to the beach / supermarket / bars / restaurants is 10-15 mins. It’s 5 mins to buses that go South to Bridgetown / Oistins and North to Speightstown. The location is great. Overall this is a lovely little hotel right at the top range of the 3 star category. The best recommendation we can give is that we would come back and stay here again. Thanks you for a wonderful stay.
