    Kitchen was large but didn’t have much equipment in. Road was a tad noisy at times but wasn’t a problem.

    Our apartment was very spacious, so far better option that a hotel. Everything was easy at Beach View. Very chilled there and great to have a few pools to choose from. Great location - lots of lovely beaches within very easy distance. Definitely worth hiring a car via the hotel so that you can really explore the island.

    Nothing!

    I liked everything at Beach View! I usually stay with family when in Barbados but wanted to stay in a hotel for a few days, as I was there for my birthday. I visited two hotels to see what they were like and the vibe at Beach View was immediately so welcoming. I had left booking until the last minute but they were able to accommodate my request for an ocean view room, and the view was absolutely stunning! Everything went smoothly and was so well organised. The little touches (items in the fridge to tie me over, recyclable shopping bag) were much appreciated. Sonia and the rest of the team at reception were wonderful, as was David, who helped me get settled, and I finished my stay with a fantastic massage by Aaliyah. My three-day stay was way too short but I will be back and for longer. Thanks to everyone for helping me to continue my birthday celebrations in the best way!

    It is too far away from home. Visiting Beach View Hotel will require quite a few hours of being on the plane!

    We had a very spacious and clean suite when we checked in. I loved the swimming pool that was less than 20 steps from our back patio. I swam everyday during our stay - even on the day when it was pouring down rain! The concierge was very helpful in arranging taxi rides and local attraction tickets for us. Our suite, pool, lounge area, and the surrounding landscaping were beautifully maintained. Having the full kitchen, washer, and dryer was a plus. We truly enjoyed our stay at Beach View Hotel.

    The room was quite dark on the ground floor and a bit noisy at times because of a fast road just next door. Tv in the bedroom was very small. I felt that what we paid for the room was too much VS value. Other buildings are newer and look nicer from the outside

    The location is great, hotel is clean with lot of great restaurants around. It does feel very safe. The service from the hotel is also brillant.

    The restaurant could be done very differently. The food really wasn’t very good and lacked vibe which was a real shame.

    The few guests who put towels on loungers and disappear for the day!

    This is a very well run establishment. The owner is “hands on” and greets guests. Everywhere is clean and there’s security guards on the gates. Our accommodation was spacious and comfortable. There’s a choice of pools to use. We prefer to self cater so we can try out local eateries. There’s plenty within walking distance but there’s also frequent and inexpensive buses that stop right outside.

    Our room was closest room to the road on a busy corner so it was noisy. This didn’t actually cause us a problem and I’m not at all noise tolerant

    We stayed in a passion fruit suite which was a fabulous spacious suite with everything you could want for a great break. Standard of the finish was high and the grounds of the hotel are beautiful

    Good size well equipped room, nice terrace with access to a nice quiet pool. Choice of 3 pools but we only used the one outside our room. Hotel spread over several buildings in landscaped grounds. Plenty of parking. Nice touches like having a bagel in the room on arrival with butter, soft, cheese and marmalade. Free to use chairs and beach umbrellas you could take to the beach just over the road.

    Although this has nothing to do with the hotel, QP across the road has constant music playing until late into the evening and lunch time, this is fine however they have speakers on the road/entrance to the restaurant which is extremely noisy for the hotel guests and very inconsiderate, when none of their guests can hear them

    The staff and cleanliness of the hotel along with the location. The food was excellent and a good selection was always available throughout the day

    Maybe no drinks option at the pool though we could take our own drinks if we chose to Early close for reception.

    We could not fault anything. The restaurant was both friendly and provided great food. The location was ideal for us, though we did have a car. THe suite was so large and so well equipped. Pool area relaxing and refreshing

    Due to our outward flight being after 10pm, it would of been nice to have had a later checkout. The early checkout rendered our last day a waste as we had to stay on the hotel grounds outside in the heat or reception for hours supervising our luggage until we left for the airport.

    The overall service was impeccable, it all started with the airport pickup. All the staff are friendly and helpful and can facilitate your transportation needs. The room was clean and spacious and had sweeping views of the ocean. The hotel grounds are landscaped beautifully and the food at the Sugar Apple Cafe was top tier.
