We have enjoyed many lovely holidays at the Savannah Beach Hotel, and have made many friends. We have been looking forward to booking again, but the new prices are ridiculous to the point of being unaffordable. Unfortunately won’t be going back.

Unfortunately our holiday was cut short due to the Corona 19 virus so the information is really only based on our arrival at the hotel Friday 13th March we should have been staying for two weeks but had to leave on the following Monday 23rd .Good area to be based at for either walking or buses into Bridgetown or St Lawrence's Gap. The beach at the hotel was as people have already said rocky with a large amount of seaweed which the hotel staff did clear as much as possible.Unfortunately a number of the things we had wonted to see didn't happen due to the virus .We had a large bedroom with a balcony which over looked the lazy river. Everywhere was very clean .Bathroom could have done with updating shower mainly. Clean towels both bath & beach changed regularly Re the staff I would say a number went out of their way to help and be-friendly some wouldn't even look at you or speak to you even when you said hello etc.Never experienced this in the couple of times we have been to Barbados before . Not sure if some of the problems due to the fact that the hotel was up for sale or because of the virus at that stage it was hard to tell .Some of the restaurant where not always available as they had closed them due to moving people home. The following day no beach beds where put out more shut downs.So very difficult to give a full review as we may have not see the hotel and staff at their best.Need to give a shout out to Danielle on reception who was very helpful on our last day .

Just back from a week before the jets stopped flying. Sadly our week marred by discussions about what was going on at home. That said, we could not fault the hotel in terms of location, staff, cleanliness and of course the weather (the staff supplied that too?). Cat - cooks am amazing omelette and was always smiling or laughing. Great to chat with you Cat. Richard at Drifters bar high on life. Infectious attitude. He's been in the hospitality industry for thirty years from Torquay to Barbados and it shows. Jackie at Drifters. Nothing too much trouble. All of the staff without exception seemed to have one aim and that was to make gusts stay as good as they could. Plenty of choice on the menus at three eating places. Well kept grounds with accomodation surrounding a lovely pool and gardens. It youncould award five stars for staff attitude this place would get them hands down. Read less
