This was my first trip to Barbados and I was very impressed with the resort. We had a large room on the fourth floor with a balcony overlooking the trees and pool area. Everything was clean and most (not all, unfortunately,) the staff were friendly. I was most impressed with the food, which is at an excellent standard. The breakfast... More

This is our second visit to Barbados and if I had to be honest it was a wee bit of a let down, our room was shabby but very clean, however when things did go wrong i.e. tap not going off, air conditioning not working properly it was fixed very quickly! We had a large jacuzzi bath which did not... More

My husband and I are just back from an amazing trip to Barbados, we have been to the Caribbean before, but not to this particular island. The island people were lovely, very friendly and welcoming. However some of the staff in our hotel were not so welcoming! It would appear that 2 other hotels not far away, which were part... More

Tonight is our last night at the Club. We have had a lovely week here, as Barbados is such a welcoming Island with warm and friendly people. However, the hotel could use some serious updating and improving. The rooms are basic, no kettle, only a very noisy 1980's style coffe maker. Standards were not great, towels were not changed too...

My husband and I spent nine days at this resort in May. We absolutely loved it. They offered many free activities that I've not seen at other resorts. It's peaceful since there aren't any children there. It's very close to Holetown. We walked to town a couple of times. Check out the new cinema at the new mall. Absolutely outstanding.... More

I have just returned from The Club Barbados and can honestly say it was the most relaxing holiday I have had to date. The location is excellent with some of the best diving and snorkelling in Barbados just off the sun terrace. Most water sports are included for free and on arrival I was given 400 Dollars in vouchers to... More

The greatest strength of this resort remains the commitment and warm welcome of the local staff, most of whom remain after the arrival of new owners, and to some extent the food (see below for qualifiers), but it has some distance to go before it will regain its 4th star. The Club has improved from its previous incarnation as Almond... More

I went with a friend of mine and we're in our 30's and the crowd was older and all couples. There were very limited activities and slim to none night life. The area itself was gorgeous, but the grounds were a bit dated. The fitness center/spa were basic - it was nice to have, but was definitely tired. Overall, it... More
