Enjoyed our stay....The pros definitely outweighed the cons

marianmr on Jul 20, 2024

Overall, hubby and I enjoyed our stay at the resort. Apart from a few glitches, we had a great experience at both of the Sandals resorts in Barbados. The good definitely outweighed the bad. Previously, we've also stayed at the Sandals resorts in Jamaica and St. Lucia. Here are the pros of the Barbados locations: *Both Barbados locations are literally right next to each other, so we didn't have to take a shuttle to get to the other location. It actually felt like one big resort and gave us direct access to more restaurants and other amenities. *Kudos to the dining options. We especially enjoyed Kimono's, Pariseanne, the dessert/cafe shops, and Green House. Thele Tavern had an amazing breakfast buffet. Kudos to the omelet chef! *The room decor was amazing and very modern. We had a great ocean view. *The night time entertainment topped the other Sandals locations we've visited in the past. We especially enjoyed Marsala's stage performance. Kudos to the dj at the Lovers Lane bowling alley/lounge! *A majority of the resort's staff was amazing, welcoming, and accommodating. Any issues we had were quickly rectified. Here are the cons: *The excessive seaweed on the beach *Hubby saw a roach in the closet of our room *Took us almost 24 hours to get clean face cloths. I think the resort ran out because they provide newly arrived guests with cool wet face cloths. *Our check-in to our was delayed because our room wasn't ready. We had to wait almost 2 hours after arrival to get in our room. Lots of other arriving guests had to wait. Words of advice if you visit: *If you want a poolside lounge chair with an umbrella, claim your spot early, as in 6:30 a.m. early. *Wear waterproof shoes on the beach and in the ocean due to the seaweed. *For off-site excursions: most definitely do the fish fry in Ostinis, the jeep tour, the cave tour, and shopping tour (we did all of our shopping at the stores; they have duty free). The US dollar is very strong in Barbados ($1 US for every $2 Barbadian dollars). We took a pass on the street vendors; we didn't want the hassle of haggling with them. *Some of the restaurants are reservation-only and have a dress code. *A shuttle is provided to take you from and to the airport. Allow 3 hours from the time your flight leaves Barbados. The luggage check-in line was astronomical. *The infinity pool on the Sandals Royal Barbados side is more of a "party atmosphere" so you may want to go to the pool on the other side if you want a more quiet poolside experience.

Royal HELL Barbados

jimnic42 (philadelphia) on Jul 18, 2024

We stayed here 6/22 - 6/28/24 for our 20th anniversary. We stayed by the main party pool club level. Everything started good. By day 1 we learned the staff is rude and mean. If you ask for a drink you are bothering them. No menus at bars so I complained. We paid for a candle light dinner after being rained on at the beach and 3 hours into our dinner WE NEVER GOT OUR DINNER! The absolute worst. I was promised a refund and I'm still waiting 25 days later. The roof top bar would close 30 to 40 minutes early if there were not many people. Restaurants are hard to book, yet they are completely EMPTY inside. Half of the restaurants are completely empty, no workers. The liquor is extremely watered down. Service at restaurants took about 2.5 to 3.5 hours, which is why you won't get inside SLOW! The first second I walked on the beach (which is public) you are immediately asked if you want to buy "White or Green" endlessly. Sorry I don't do coke. Gross! By day 3 (after tipping the maid) we never got cleaning service again. Yep no towels to wash up, no toilet paper, dirty floors in rooms. Complained to manager. They don't care. Good luck. My husband was injured on the property by a nail in the ground, there is endless constructions by the main party pool area. The nightlife was awful. Shows are boring and lack everything. Bowling alley was always closed or some reason or another. The only way you will get good service is being FORCED TO TIP! Otherwise good luck. You have been warned do not go to Sandals Royal Barbados. Enjoy the pictures for proof.
