This hotel is very good You need to accept it is not on the beach, but there are plenty of good beach Clubs In Speighstown if you fancy a day on the beach, plus the hotel runs a bus to both the town and to Heywoods beach , which was stunning The beautiful hotel gardens more than make up for its location The wildlife including, frogs monkeys and beautiful bird's was a sheer delight I have never stayed anywhere where the gardens are so beautifully kept There are sunbeds on the lawns amongst the gardens, so you can just lie there and take in all the beautiful surroundings Food good, themed nights, plus both lunch and dinner are served ( not buffet ) which was lovely. Every lunch time there was a BBQ by the pool, with fresh fish, meat, salads if you did not want to go to restaurant for lunch Hotel was spotless Staff friendly and helpful The all inclusive option was worth it as it included cocktails My only slightly negative comment would be that the bar shuts early sometimes 10.30. There are also times when the beach bar was shut, main bar was not open so you could not get a drink, but this was only for a short time before one or the other opened I highly recommend this hotel and I intend to return Read less

I am always a bit concerned about vegetarian options, but this was not a problem, in fact the Head Chef came to see us when we checked in, to discuss what could/couldn't be eaten. Little touches like this really make this hotel so special. Overall an amazing holiday 😊 Read less

This is our 4th visit - returning to enjoy the relaxed environment in a wonderful garden setting The staff were in the main first class- demonstrating a real warmth and pride in their roles. Sadly the beach club was inoperable (for us) due to the fact that the sand has been eroded, whilst no fault can be apportioned to the hotel there was little or no reason to visit and drinks and food in the Club were not part of the inclusive package. The hotel needs to sharpen up, maintenance of basics such as lamps in the dining room and the Perspex cover in the breakfast room were simply ignored. The furnishings in the dining room need attention which are decidedly dated and not fit for purpose. The sun loungers are tired and the amount of umbrellas simply inadequate - these points are a quick fix if the management chose to action same. Reception staff Karine and Michelle were wonderful- the others, it was hit and miss often surly and unhelpful The boys in the gardening team were wonderful- they were so attentive and hard working - Leo is quite amazing Sugar Cane need to appreciate that there are credible options in Barbados which will erode the loyalty of regulars to this hotel. It’s sad to say that the staff who make this hotel run appear to be let down by poor support from the owners. Read less

Super slow service. Waited 60 minutes to check in. Was treated poorly by the counter staff. Waited 2.5 hours and room still not ready. Took several trips to the front desk just to get checked in. It’s a long drive from Bridgetown and had to wait now for over 2.5 hours and no room.
