What travelers are saying
- SCMDJKWhiteAtlanta, GA270 contributionsI definitely recommend this!!
The only thing I would do differently… sign up for the Cocktail Workshop early. It books up days/weeks ahead!!
The tour is definitely worth $25.
You are greeted by the bartenders and a Planter Punch cocktail while you wait for the tour to start!
You will learn about the history, etc…
Then you will have 4 generous samples!
Your guide will explain how to drink/sip to release all of the flavors. It was very interesting!
There are rums in the gift shop that you can only buy there.
Thank you Akeel!

Water is warm and clear. Hotel was ok but the main asset was the location.Written March 12, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- RicochanNew York390 contributionsIf you plan to be at Pebbles Beach to witness the bathing of racehorses with their trainers, I recommend getting there by 6 AM. We lodged at a hotel nearby, so we frequented this beach almost daily. On the days we arrived post 6:30 AM, we noticed the crowds were significantly larger, and there seemed to be some commercial activities (some horses arrived in large carriers, and trainers solicited money for photo opportunities and rides) which made me feel uneasy.
However, some trainers were kind enough to allow me to pet their cherished horses.
If you're planning to rent two loungers and an umbrella, be prepared with BBD 40 in cash. A friendly gentleman will assist you, allowing you to use his lounger and umbrella set for the entire day. We took an hour-long lunch break, but our set was still available upon our return. Don't miss out on Cuss' sandwiches (you'll find his hat at the beach entrance). This is one of the most serene beaches near the world's capital cities, in my opinion. Of course, in Barbados, there are plenty of beaches to choose from, but most of them are far from Bridgetown.Written March 18, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We watched the racing from trackside, so didn’t cost anything.
There was a great atmosphere, plenty of food/drink stalls and betting kiosks should you want to place a bet.
The best thing was how close we were to the horses.Written March 17, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Hard to believe some of the graves were several hundred years old.

- BeatriceManchester, UK25 contributionsThis beach is my second favourite on the island. As soon as I drive up the smiling is on... I just can't wait to get in that beautiful aquamarine sea.
I could stay in the water all day it's so peaceful makes me happy I sing speak to my late parents dance to the music from the catamarans passing by..
Oh so beautiful..
To finish I buy a couple of fish cakes from the stall nearby and my day is complete..
Ahh!!!!

Make sure you are there early and ensure you have arranged your transport back.Written December 13, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Robert B4 contributionsGreat beach, it was not over populated with sun beds available, (if Kai decided to turn up). Plenty of shade if not to lay your towels. Toilet facilities and a restaurant available (very expensive).
No water sports, which is a plus for us.
The sea is wonderful with waves crashing in, a bit rocky in places to get in but there are places where you can get in on sand. No real need for pool shoes. Also turtles regularly swimming past in the shallows. Other than that snorkelling is not the best.
We visited a lot of beaches on the island and found this one to be the best.
For those that like a stroll, we even walked right into Bridgetown all on the beach.
If we ever go back to Barbados this would be the beach where I would head.Written March 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Free shuttle back to the port. Was surprised and happy that the food was very good, drinks were on par, and the facilities were good and clean. Water is so good and there are inflatables. Highly recommend if you are looking for a beach club with reasonable prices, lots of amenities, and super staff! Will definitely be back.Written March 4, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- David HKingston-upon-Hull, UK5 contributionsI visited here yesterday and found it very interesting, but about an hour was all that was needed. The staff were very polite, there was a nice café and very few things in the gift shop. But the staff did not seem very knowledgeable about their surroundings, especially as they are Barbadians. I did not want to return to my hotel just yet, so I asked the staff if there was anything else in the area that I could see. I am in a wheelchair, so could not travel far without getting a taxi. I was told the best thing was the local boardwalk near the sea!!!!!! When I returned to my hotel, I googled my next trip out, and discovered there was the Barbados museum, no more than about 1000 metres away! Surely as a resident, you know what there is to see, and where it is, especially as it is an “attached “ attraction. Don’t the managers train their staff as to what else there is, and about the connected buildings and attractions?Written May 14, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Sarah CAshtead, UK1,290 contributionsThis was walking distance from our hotel and we spent a great hour or so at the museum, learning about Barbadan life and the history of the island. The cells were interesting and we were particularly impressed with the children's exploratory educational room... it released the inner child in us both, very hands on and fun too!Written March 6, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
