I have now stayed at this hotel a few times so feel I can give an honest review. The rooms are very home like, what with the kitchen and living areas and separate doors from bathroom to bedroom.nice balcony areas to relax in as well. With your kitchen facilities it means you can stay in and cook, a good option... More

Great location, on the st Lawrence gap all rooms have a kitchen which comes in handy as the food on Barbados is very expensive. There was a problem with check in lost reservation, and check out (they dont kkep great records so keep your reciepts) the only real down on this resort is the food service and pool bar..No action...

This was my twelfth trip to Divi Southwinds over a period of about 20 years. Friendly staff who remembered me and my parents (they have a timeshare and have been every year for 25 years). This is not the fanciest resort but it's comfortable, extremely well located, and affordable. I'd rather be at Divi in the heart of the Gap... More

We recently stayed at the Divi while we were in Barbados for the cricket. The facilities and rooms are very tired and worn. Room was a good size and was cleaned well each day but the staff were unhelpful and rude - the cleaning staff were rude, the waitstaff at breakfast were unhelpful and slow, the reception staff were very...

We've been coming to Divi Southwinds for decades, but missed a half-dozen years due to other priorities. Happy to say the resort has been quite improved. The older, worn out cottages and beachfront villas have been torn down and converted to gardens, so most of the rooms except the north-facing garden rooms can see and hear the ocean. Our unit...

I've just returned from 2 very chilled out weeks staying at the Divi Southwinds. I'm not an "all inclusive resort" person so I was after a place where I could do my own thing and not feel as though I was part of a resort. The Divi met those requirements. I was lucky enough to get room 701, which is... More

This was the first time I had visited the Divi Southwinds beach resort and am very impressed. Only 15 minutes taxi ride from the airport and the staff are friendly and efficient. I was lucky enough to stay in one of the beachside rooms where there is a living room with sofa bed, separate kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. It must... More

We stayed here with our 4yr old son and loved it here. The room was clean and everything worked well. Our bathroom fan sounded like a jet, so we just left it off. The maids cleaned the room and washed our dishes, and we never even saw them. We had a nice patio overlooking a garden area, and my son... More

We did a timeshare exchange to the Divi Southwinds, and had a good time. Staff was very friendly and helpful. As others have noted, the resort could use some upgrading, but for our purposes (my wife and I and the two grandkids we're raising), where we were doing almost all our own cooking, it worked well. Pluses: beach is lovely--nice... More

This resort is sweet. They need to pay more attention to little things though. The Maintenance is in need of someone that cares. The pool deck had a dip around a cover that I tripped in twice. See pictures that are posted. Fire extinguisher mount in our kitchen was short and fell on me. TV cable was bad. Furniture needed... More
