I was expecting something more ... Bajan, I guess. I'm not sure what I was expecting, to be honest. More costumes, perhaps. We just went for the show and were seated in the very back. Service was fairly good (which was nice since it was all you can drink). It seemed more modern than I thought it was going to... More

A worthwhile evening. Good food & drink. Good varied entertainment. Promotional video a little irritating. Hoped for a little more steel drums & callipso music, but entertaining none the less. More

I attended Bajan Roots & Rhythms with 9 of my friends (ages 20-26) and we all had a fantastic evening! Doors open at 6:15pm, Dinner at 7:15pm, Show at 8:15pm and it is all done by 10:00pm. The food was delicious. Drinks are included in the price which include the usual drinks at "drinks free" events (rum, gin, beer...) but... More

My experience at the dinner show was average at best. The food was good, drinks were great, some of the performers lacked talent (i.e. lip syncing) and the promotional video was irritating. More

We always like to see local culture dance shows, and this over exceeded our expectations! The dancers, sets, and costumes were of excellent quality, and the island history was followed for dance influence from early British, Jamacan, Latino, and other cultures. The buffet was quite good and drinks were all included! Booking from your resort gives you free transportation to... More
