Excellent hotel

DebDDD03 on Jun 06, 2026

This was our first time in Barbados and Sugar Bay did not disappoint!! Lovely hotel, friendly staff and excellent food. It is situated on its own private beach where loungers were always available. The pool was warm, clean and inviting especially the swim up bar. The nightly entertainment was great. We would highly recommend a stay here at this hotel - certainly gets 10/10 from us!

A lovely stay!

We had a great time at Sugar Bay for 9 nights. Food really is excellent at all times, we really enjoyed the variety also. Rooms are clean, comfortable and spacious with good air conditioning. The grounds were really nice, pleasant atmosphere, lovely views and friendly helpful staff. We particularly loved the beach and pool bars and variety of cocktails to relax with. Hired a car for a couple of days to explore the island which the concierge sorted for us with ease. A lovely stay and highly recommended

Sugar Bay - Stay Longer!

My grandson and I just returned from a weeklong stay at Sugar Bay - it was a fabulous week; so much so, that we extended our stay by a night. The hotel graciously and efficiently accommodated out request for an extra night. I can honestly say Sugar Bay is now at the top of our list for island stays with children. . . I appreciated the smaller footprint of the property, and the authentic island feel. The property is beautiful, centrally located, Quiet and well maintained; the staff friendly and competent. A few personal mentions (in stark contrast to some negative comments I read on TA): Firstly, the water sports team rocks! They hustled all day. . . . early morning raking the sand and organizing chairs. . . . promptly putting up umbrellas with a smile, swapping out towels, etc. They were cheerful and courteous, ALWAYS. Secondly, the food was amazing. The buffet spread at Reef restaurant provided great variety . . . something for everyone. The chefs here do a topnotch job! The carving / saute' stations always offering up something delectable . . . . all the food stations on the buffet were fresh and impeccably kept, staff regularly checking that quantity was sufficient. The waitstaff was attentive in clearing our empty plates and checking on drinks. I highly recommend Sugar Bay Resort and certainly plan to return.

Peasant surprise on the south coast

Michael P (Ottawa, Canada) on Jun 01, 2026

We went to Sugar Bay last April to meet up with some long time Barbados Buddies from Canada. We have been travelling to Barbados since 1992 and this was our 37th visit to Barbados but our first time staying at Sugar Bay. We had a great 10 nights because everyone we encountered whether it was the staff or the other guests we became part of the furniture, very quickly. We have booked a return trip see you April 2027????????????????
