Brilliant hotel, can’t wait to return

Leanne B (York, England, United Kingdom) on Jan 10, 2026

Where to start with this hotel? Firstly the staff make this place feel so very special, going above and beyond to make sure we were happy and comfortable. The food has been delicious (even for my fussy 14 year old son), big shout out to Ether who cooks the omelets on a morning, we will miss her making us smile. The entertainment on an evening is outstanding. We water skied for the first time and loved it!…….. all water sports are free which was a huge hit with my family. Our stay from start to finish has just been one of my best experiences of an hotel and we’re very well travelled! We are sad to be leaving but look forward to returning on our next trip to the island. Thank you to all the amazing staff who made our trip so brilliant.

Fantastic Holiday

RobN487 (Bristol, England, United Kingdom) on Jan 07, 2026

Such a perfect 10 days at Waves, Barbados - a very well run hotel of around 70 rooms. Staff fantastic always on hand checking you have everything needed. No particular order but my feedback is as follows: Room and meals all brilliant. Very nice coffee bar also offering additional food options throughout the day Staff proactive with drinks all day, whether in the hotel or on the beach or at meals. Two swimming pools and excellent clean beach that feels very private. Beach & sea was amazing i.e. no seaweed and very little difference between low and high tide meaning water sports (including those powered) easily available all day (except lunch time 12:00 to 13:00) and of course swimming available all day in the non boat zone. All Staff really friendly, proactive and helpful. Evening live entertainment on several nights was very good Water sports great - sailing, kayaking including powered options eg wakeboarding, skiing, rings Nice walks from hotel available in either direction with easy access to long stretches of beach towards Bridgetown and past La Cabana on the beach and towards Sandy lane by walking down onto the beach after the leaving hotel. Plus you can walk inland around the West of Indies University, including cricket ground and up the 100 steps which made a change. Jordan’s supermarket just down the road, although we didn’t need to visit the supermarket as hotel had everything we needed. Spa treatments very good - we had two complimentary each. Decided to visit Treasure Beach on the meal exchange for lunch which was very good. Can po by water taxi, reggae bus or a 25 minute walk. Plenty of cold water stations around the hotel to stay hydrated. The chef cooking Demo for Bajan dish was informative and fun. Thanks go to all the staff, too many to mention but these include: Keisha - reception manager. Jacky - evening meal Ether - Who makes the most Perfect omelette for breakfast. Pompadou and all the water sports team Sandra Scantlebury - very friendly and smiley service in the restaurant Kim Young - General manager - always available speaking with guests checking that all is well Stacian - very helpful Ron - rum sampling Devon - Reception & helped with luggage Terence - lunch Donovan - brought over new drink without being asked ?? Sherrmarke - bar - very helpful, polite, fantastic drinks Jared - Security - very friendly Jamar - bar, friendly Miguel - bar Olivia - bar Janine - Spa Loreal - breakfast - friendly Diight & Oliver Hinds- very nice chef cooking demo Taminte - manager
