Sandals Barbados All Inclusive - Couples Only

Large resort with lots of bars, pools and restaurants. It’s well maintained and in a great position on the south west coast. Other reviews are a little negative in my opinion. The overall quality of the food in all the restaurants were if really high quality and don’t worry if you think the portions can be small as you can just order another course. Service is dependant on where you are as I found all the restaurants were excellent with a slight bad mark for the pool bar staff at the various bars throughout the resort. Not rude, not unpleasant but not friendly either. It’s not a huge issue but it is noticeable. We stayed in the Hawksbill building and though wonderfully clean and well appointed, is starting to look tired and in need of a refresh. Although I wouldn’t visit again, only as I’ve been to Barbados before so feel like I need to discover other islands, I would on the basis of this experience visit another sandals

We are currently here and having a great time! I have no idea what everyone else is upset about, it does not look like they have a staff shortage, staff are friendly and welcoming. Service is great, beach is amazing and the food is spectacular, we have loved trying all the different restaurants. The food is so good. Pure transparency there were a couple staff that weren’t in a great mood, but you move on. Yes, the rooms could use some updating - but you get full range of two resorts and the grounds are beautiful! We are definitely coming back. Don’t listen to the negative reviews - it’s fun!

Property and amenities were great. Food was top notch however, the employees there were miserable and unwelcoming. Money tends to make the workers appreciate you a little more but not here! It don’t matter how much you gave them, they took it and turned around without even a word of thanks. Pool bar workers were the worst during the day. Lack of workers cleaning left dirty dishes everywhere and towels all over the deck. You don’t get what you pay for as far as service and cleanliness but we met some great people which made our vacation memorable. We won’t go back as other resorts were better than this one.

We stayed here for a week in November 2024. Location, beach and grounds (ie. landscaping), were all excellent. Food and beverages were very good also. The interiors of this resort are really dated and worn however. Several broken or worn out fixtures in our room. The biggest concern we had was the poor provisioning and supply all around the resort. Tap water pressure is low. There were never enough beach or pool towels available. In the bars there was not enough drink wear forcing the staff to quickly rinse dirty glasses in front of you before preparing your beverage. The restaurants were short of place settings. In our room we only had clean towels for 2 of 7 days forcing us to forage the resort for pool towels to use in our room. After a couple of days the top sheet on our bed was removed for laundering however another sheet was never brought back for our bed. Would definitely seek out a newer and better supplied Sandals resort in the future.

Wish I could leave a good review for our first trip to sandals but I cannot . First off the service was terrible no one even smiled if you asked for anything it was as if you were bothering the staff. Forget getting a towel to shower with they cleaned our room we were a couple. They left us one towel no washcloth no hand towel towels no foot towel. We had to borrow a towel from the people next-door..For three days we had no blanket. Everyone else was telling us they had a blanket. We were sleeping with clean beach towels until I finally caught the girl who was cleaning our room and I said we don’t have a blanket and she said oh I just noticed that let me go get you one.. crystal at the pool bar you couldn’t have been nastier if working with people is not your thing find another job. We paid a decent amount of money the rooms were outdated ceilings were stained and needed to be painted our toilet bowl didn’t work my husband fixed it after every flush even tho we complained no one ever came . The food was honestly the only thing I can say was good . Tony at the omelet station was a joy . Zebe the bartender was a sweetheart . Many of the couples there were complaining about the service saying this was the worst sandals experience . I would have liked to have booked another location but after this experience I think we are done . We tried to speak to a manager but no one was available . Pick another spot if you are thinking about Barbados .
