Worth the try
We enjoyed our stay. The hotel is clean, service is excellent, staff is nice and the free breakfast was good as well (It was the deciding factor in booking). The pool was great as well. The only negative was that the beds were a bit small. Otherwise, we were happy with the hotel.

A great stay!
Friendly hotel that was clean and well staffed. It was great for a 3 star and is reasonably priced for families and couples to be able to come and enjoy Barbados. The rooms are lovely and spacious and clean towels are plentiful. The staff are friendly and courteous.I feel there should be an extra cover provided for the bed as one sheet is not enough. That is the only thing though as we had a great stay on this lovely island!

Check in was easy & quick. Staff are so friendly & helpful. Property is clean. Free breakfast is a nice touch with lots of choice. We had lunch a couple of times & that was great quality & really tasty. Beach is across the road. Quite choppy but very peaceful & secluded. I’d recommend this hotel.

There was an agency that had booked people onto a tour at this hotel and they were all hanging around the reception and blocking the doors and was absolute chaos just trying to get out of the place. You could tell the staff had had enough of them being there as they seemed to be a rude bunch. I think if the tour wasn’t there it would be good. Also, they seem to charge for everything extra you want and was no towel in my room when I got there.
