The hotel has a unique layout with two separate bedrooms and two bathrooms, but the decor feels outdated. The service was helpful and friendly but could use some modernization. The location is excellent with a creative design around the main pool and a buzzing atmosphere near Hoteltown. The dining options were limited in variety but offered made-to-order food. Overall, a mix of charm and need for updates.

The hotel offers stunning views across the pools and out to sea, although privacy in the rooms is a concern due to the large front glass window. The rooms are kept very clean, and the fridge is replenished daily with water and soft drinks. The service is overwhelmingly friendly and accommodating, ensuring a welcoming stay. The location boasts a beautiful sandy beach and nice pools, but some areas are restricted for water taxi access. The dining options are varied and include food cooked on request, adding a nice touch to the experience.

Staying at this hotel was a delightful experience. The location is lovely, just steps away from the beach and nestled among charming gardens. The rooms had a unique character being in small units, although they were a bit outdated. The service was impeccable with friendly staff always ready to assist. The dining options provided seasonal local products but were lacking variety. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few areas for improvement.

Our family of 4 had a great stay at this hotel. The rooms were perfect for us with separate beds for the kids and 2 full bathrooms, ensuring peace and harmony. However, being on the 3rd floor facing the ocean near the street did mean some early morning car horns at 7 am.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the rooms could use some modernization and the bathrooms needed updating, they were spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable, although a bit limited in space for luggage. The service was exceptional, with attentive staff who kept everything spick and span and were particularly safety-conscious with children. The location couldn't be beaten, offering easy access to the beach, the capital, and the airport. The dining experience was delightful, especially at breakfast, with a variety of fresh and delicious options. Overall, a great place to stay with a few minor drawbacks.

I couldn't have asked for a better stay! The rooms were fabulous, clean, modern, and spacious with a lovely sea view from the balcony, especially being upstairs. The service was top-notch, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable holiday. The location was excellent with easy access to buses and great dining options around. The dining experience was mostly enjoyable, although some restaurants didn't meet expectations. Overall, a great value for money with fantastic amenities.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were pretty spacious and had a lovely terrace area with comfy chairs, clean and recently painted, although the furniture seemed old. The service was excellent overall, with friendly staff who were mostly helpful. The location was out of this world, right on the seafront with a beautiful sandy beach and great choice of water sports. The dining experience had its flaws but was acceptable. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay enjoyable and relaxing.

I couldn't believe the breathtaking views right next to the beach, but sadly, the room was so grimly out of date with stained rugs and curtains, a tired bath, and knocking pipes with every tap. The service from the landscape team was fantastic, always friendly and helpful. The location, between Bridgetown and Holetown, allowed for a holiday of a lifetime while relaxing on a sunbed. The dining experience at Reflections had a fantastic selection, even though the breakfast was the same daily. The value for money was decent considering the outdated room.

The hotel offers comfortable rooms with a wonderful balcony and sea views, and a bathroom filled with every amenity.
