Family accommodation in Barbados

I loved the location -- it was within walking distance of other restaurants. We were always able to get chairs and umbrellas on the beach, without having to get up early in the morning to save them. The water was beautiful. It was our third time in Barbados and our favorite hotel so far. We liked getting breakfast to go at the cafe -- better than the buffet, which was expensive and had too many scavenging birds. The beach and pool were quiet during the day, which I appreciated. Would book here again.

I absolutely recommend Sugar Bay and I hope to return soon. The restaurant staff, the bar staff, the beach staff, the grounds staff, the cleaning staff, the maintenance staff, the staff that welcomes you the moment you arrive and check in are smiling and friendly. They are all helpful and recognize the "deer caught in headlights" look when you don't know what you are doing. All of the staff at this resort make you fall in love with Sugar Bay and more importantly, the people of Barbados. The food is delicious, the spa is worth it and don't forget to make reservations at the restaurants. Now, I agree that there are some small updates/upgrades that could be made around the resort but you don't notice things like that unless you are looking for them. My best friend and I had a maintenance issue with our room and that was handled. It wasn't due to an upgrade that we could see that was needed. :) My biggest tip is to remember that you are hopefully there to relax and have a wonderful time away from your daily grind. Please remember that your kindness matters. Sadly, we witnessed a couple of unkind patrons, only a couple, who forgot this but I will say that the Sugar Bay staff handled these patrons' unkindness with grace and an over abundance of kindness in return. As a whole you will find yourself surrounded by happy people, staff and fellow vacationers, at this resort and you will leave refreshed.

We were actually in tears as we checked out because we’re so sad to leave today. Our stay was everything that we hoped it would be! We booked the Ocean Loft room and had a gorgeous view. If you aren’t able to walk up 4-5 flights, I would double check with the hotel before booking, since elevators aren’t available. Water sports through the resort are free such as paddle boarding, kayaking, etc. You have easy access to the beach, but chairs are only available on the actual property itself. Once you head down to the beach, you are able to bring towels and set up in front of the ocean, where other water sports are available such as jet skiing. The food was AMAZING and every employee was somehow nicer than the last. I would highly encourage anyone visiting to do the 2 hour snorkeling tour - you’ll see an abandoned shipwreck, turtles, stingrays, and various fish. Our stay was perfect from start to finish. 10/10 would recommend!

This was my first time to Barbados. This resort is really enjoyable. Nice pool with direct access to the beach. I would stay here again. I would highly recommend.

Lovely

Always a relaxing visit
