The hotel

Mango Bay is in a great location on a beautiful beach on the west coast. We love it because it's a small, friendly hotel that exudes bajan charm. From outside dining under the stars to traditional English afternoon tea, this hotel is ideal if you are looking for a relaxing getaway. The restaurants, bars and boutiques of fashionable Holetown St. James, along with the Limegrove Lifestyle complex, are just footsteps away - and the complimentary catamaran cruise allows you to explore even more that the island has to offer.

This hotel is quite simply a heavenly place on earth. Location is perfect, I can’t put into words how good and personable to staff are. They take the time out of their busy days to get to know you and ensure you want for nothing. Even making food not on the menu for your fussy children. Special shout out to Isabel, Damian and Donnel.

We spent a wonderful day here on the beautiful West Coast. The sands are white and the sea turquoise. The lunch was very pleasant and we also enjoyed the afternoon tea. Mango Bay is located just across the street from Lime Grove if you fancy some retail therapy.

Just got back from the most amazing holiday at mango bay in Barbados. It was our first time to the island and we was not disappointed. Check in was super easy and fast , welcome drink on arrival of rum punch was fantastic, suitcases delivered to our rooms whilst we had a wonder around the hotel. We were given rooms on floor 3 with views of the pool and a slight view of the sea, this were fantastic very spacious and very clean. The food was incredible to say it’s all inclusive and so was the cocktails , we particularly loved the bbq evenings as we preferred the buffet to the a la cart dining more choice but that was just our preference. Evening entertainment was excellent with live music every evening starting at dinner and ending later in the evening. All the staff were very pleasant and very helpful couldn’t do enough for you. Big shout out to Damien and Rayden for being going the extra mile . The beach is stunning we went swimming with the turtles everyday and the free catamaran trip was a very nice touch. Loved the atmosphere and vibe of this hotel everyone is so friendly and like one big family. We will definitely be back. Read less

Check in was a comfortable experience with a very warm welcome. Exactly what we remember and expected having previously visited this fantastic hotel. What wasn't expected was that they remembered our previous visit. We were allocated the same room that we were in previously which was a nice touch. We also received a nice hand written welcome back card and bottle in our room. The room was spotless and kept that way, with all the facilities you would expect. Location is spot on right on the beach. All staff were incredible happy polite and helpful. Food was amazing with a varied choice and real quality. This whole week was just what we needed as we were so relaxed and just spent time around the pool and on the beach. Nothing negative to say. From start to finish it really was perfect, thank you so much Mango Bay we really would like to return again. Read less
