Beautiful Setting, Great Service, but Some Missed Details
Beverley F on Dec 11, 2025
We just returned from a 7 nights to celebrate my birthday and our 40th wedding anniversary. The property is absolutely beautiful—small, intimate, right on the ocean with a lovely beach and great views. Service was wonderful throughout, and housekeeping twice a day kept everything spotless. Transfers were included both ways. Departure was smooth, but arrival was messy. There was confusion and some chaos, and the team had to find alternative transportation instead of the prearranged transfer being ready. Check-in also didn’t hit the mark. After a long travel day, not receiving the welcome drink that was meant to be offered didn’t set the right tone. We followed up the next day and received it then. The Palm Terrace restaurant was closed with no advance notice, which left only one restaurant open. While breakfast was excellent, the main menu became repetitive and the food overall was just average. We did have a pre-booked private dinner on the beach for our anniversary, and that was fantastic—great food and attentive service. We booked a beachfront suite that advertised a butler, daily canapés, and afternoon tea. These perks were disappointing. The butlers appeared inconsistently, the canapés were poor, and the tea was mediocre. At this price point, these extras need to be much better—or not offered at all. Overall, it’s a gorgeous property in a stunning location, and we would return—but only after confirming Palm Terrace is operating. For a quiet getaway in a beautiful setting, it’s a lovely choice as long as expectations are set correctly.
Perfect beach holiday

Love this hotel, it’s located on the best beach in Barbados and I always leave wanting to come back for more. The staff are warm and friendly and despite the fact that they do not currently have a general manager the management team were doing a sterling job. It’s a pity that the Palm Terrace was out of action because of structural problems but that said breakfast in The Taboras, ocean front, is just perfect. As there are so many great restaurants on the island we only ate at the hotel a couple of times but each time the service and food were great. They did a superb job of serving up a delicious tuna tartare and seared tuna with chips and salad caught that day on a fishing trip. The rooms were fresh and clean every day just have to make sure to keep your door closed when the air con is on to prevent excessive condensation from the outside humidity. I do love hearing the sound of the waves! The most important factor at this hotel is the beach with everyone room ocean facing. White sand and turquoise waters with beach waiters at your service. I hope I will still be visiting for another 20 years.
