Loved our room and view. We felt there was no communication from staff regarding our being able to dine at sister hotels or how to get there when the ferry wasn’t running. We heard from another guest that we could take the ferry to other hotels. The hotel should have told us that. The food was just ...

Staff were so friendly and helpful, sorting out car hire, and giving advice on places to visit and eat. They couldn’t do enough for us. The place was kept spotlessly clean. I loved the fact that we were able to borrow chairs and umbrellas to take to the beach. Although the hotel is just across the ...

Pretty perfect
A home away from home. Nice host who is extremely helpful. The place is spacious and the rooms are great. We have enjoyed it immensely and really love that everything is pretty close by. No reason to rent a car there are busses going to all places all the time.

There was no front desk to make inquiries or requests. Whenever I checked the office was locked. The safe had no instructions on how to reset and no staff ...

very busy road that Tamarind is located on. Water is turbid and sand is only okay. No real fishing nearby and surfing is all south or east. 2nd time to Barbados and this was not as nice as first.

4/5 - Good

Nice beach although rocky in places. Good restaurants nearby. Very easy access to Lime Grove. High tourist area, but away from late night bars.
