Updated: July 31, 2017

Turtle Beach is a premium all-inclusive, all-suite resort on the South coast of Barbados. The luxury hotel is named for its location on a stunning 1500-foot stretch of white sand beach where sea turtles return to lay their eggs year after year.

Combining contemporary design, a lively, family-friendly atmosphere and 161 junior and one-bedroom suites, Turtle Beach is an ideal Barbados destination for couples, kids, weddings and group retreats.

Below is a summation of hundreds of user reviews on The Club Barbados.  Updated through October 2016.

Most frequent positive reviews about Turtle Beach Resort

  • The Staff are very friendly, efficient and professional.  They strive to make your stay enjoyable.  Nothing is to much trouble.
  • The Food is good, of a high quality with plenty of variety.  There are three restaurants to choose from, a  Buffet with a different theme every night, an A La Carte, and a Zagat rated authentic Italian restaurant, (Asiago’s).  Menus are put out in advance for the A La Carte restaurant to make choosing easier.
  • The Suites are spacious, clean, nice décor, and the beds are comfortable.
  • The Flying Kids Club and Staff are awesome.  Great activities are offered, tennis, air hockey, arts and crafts,  making smoothies, treasure hunts, football games, and much more.  The kids have the time of their life, they do not want to leave.
  • Pools are lovely with plenty of sun beds available.
  • Complimentary non-motorized water sports are available.  Captain Sam and his team on the beach are fantastic.  They are always on hand to assist and to make sure you are safe.
  • Beverages, fruit and ice lollies are brought around by the friendly staff.

Most frequent negative reviews about Turtle Beach Resort

  • The ocean is rough.  Expect to see red flags on occasion due to the choppy waters.  Most of the time the water will not be calm.
  • May not be able to do water sports everyday due to the rough water.
  • If you require flat seas and no wind, this is not the resort for you.  We recommend you try a resort on the west coast like Crystal Cove or Waves.
  • Excess of seaweed at times.  The staff work regularly to keep the beach clean.
  • Birds flying around the dining area are a nuisance.
  • If you lose your towel card you are charged $30.00 U.S.
  • Mini refrigerators are not stocked. You will have to pay extra if you want soda and water in your room.
  • If you are with kids you cannot use the Italian Restaurant.
  • Wi-Fi in the room is a bit slow.  It is good on the beach and by the pools.
  • If you book within the range of school holidays,  and,  you are traveling as a couple,  be aware you may run into family groups and lots of children.  If this is not for you, you may want to stay at a different time,  or,  at a different resort.

Other Considerations

  • A destination wedding  or honeymoon can be planned at the Turtle Beach Resort.  A wedding package is available.
  • Even though the water can be rough at times it makes body boarding and surfing lots of fun.
  • The kids can go to movie night and have dinner in the kids club while the adults  go to the adult only restaurant (Asiago’s) and enjoy dinner.
  • At Turtle Beach Resort there is something to keep everyone happy. Body boarding, the pool, table tennis, the gym, tennis, the kids club, and the internet café to name a few.
  • The staff are kind, caring , efficient and professional, some say,  ” the Gem of the hotel”,  helping to contribute to the relaxed and amazing friendly atmosphere of Turtle Beach Resort.
  • Sister Hotels in Barbados: Turtle Beach guests can enjoy full exchange dining at the sister resorts, (Crystal Cove and Waves), for lunch and dinner. Reservations are required. Transportation is not included. A Taste of Elegance Voucher can be purchased if guests have an interest in having lunch or dinner at the non-inclusive hotels within the Elegant Hotels Group, (Colony Club and Tamarind Hotel).

Updated: October 1, 2016

Ideally located oceanfront on Barbados’s West Coast, The Club offers terrific rooms and suites, including Oceanfront Rooms and Suites, a luxurious Spa & Salon, freshwater swimming pools, All-Inclusive dining and drinks, water sports, entertainment, and the warm hospitality Barbados is famous for.  The Club Barbados reviews are largely positive.  It is a low key hotel with an excellent location.

Perfect for couples, honeymoons, friends, and family (16 years of age and older), The Club is your perfect Caribbean vacation getaway.

Below is a summation of hundreds of user reviews on The Club Barbados.

The Club Barbados Reviews: The Positive

  • Efficient, friendly, and attentive staff.
  • The food is very good with an excellent variety and is well presented.  The chef will cater to special dietary needs.
  • The rooms are spacious, clean, and the beds are very comfortable.
  • The adult only resort is small and intimate which makes it easy to meet other guests.
  • The location is excellent.  If so inclined,  pleasant walks can be taken in all directions.
  • Guests recommend taking advantage of the spa and the amenities the spa has to offer..
  • Pool areas have plenty of chairs and sun loungers.
  • Guests enjoy sitting at the beach bar and watching the sunset in a calm and quiet atmosphere.
  • A variety of water sports are offered with a water sports team that are very polite and helpful.

  • The gym is well equipped with new treadmills and weight machines.
  • There is a lovely gift shop on site.
  • The Reggae bus stop is right outside the hotel.

The Club Barbados Reviews: The Negative

  • The beach area is small at low tide and can become non existent at high tide.  You can see a clear picture of the beach area below.
  • The guests will reserve beach sun beds before breakfast when the resort gets busier. This can be annoying when the sun beds are not used for several hours.
  • Entertainment can be a bit low key,  but,  it is still well varied.
  • Wi Fi can be inconsistent.  You may have to sit in the bar or the reception area.
  • Don’t expect to see the hotel full of really young couples.  If it is a party hotel you want this hotel may be a bit low key for you.

Other Considerations

  • Breakfast and lunch are buffets providing everything that you could wish for.  The evening dinner is served at your table at either The Sunset Restaurant, which is more relaxed, or Enid’s, being a bit more formal and serving local food.  Both are said to be outstanding.   Two evenings per week a buffet is served.
  • Enid’s offers a demonstration Bajan cooking class for there guests.  Some guests say it was the highlight of their trip.
  • There are 3 nice size pools located in the garden area with lots of exotic flowers, trees and birds to see.
  • Even though The Club Barbados beach is small there is a lovely beach on either side of the hotel that can be used by guests.  Sandy Lane beach is to the left, (famous for the celebrities that stay there), and to the right,  another totally unspoiled beach.  Remember it could be tricky getting to either at high tide.
  • There is a raised terrace with sand that provides a unique area to sit in the afternoon sun and watch the sunset, or, sun bathe all day long.  To get to the water you will need to take the stairs down to the ocean.
  • The Club Barbados is conveniently located for all the best golf courses on the island.
  • It is a short walk to Holetown with it’s plethora of shopping, restaurants, gas station, etc.,  pretty much anything that you might require while on holiday.  There is even a casino.
  • The Club Barbados is a lovely, friendly, relaxed atmosphere with plenty to do and very good excursions run by the hotel.
  • There are no elevators at The Club Barbados. Guests with limited mobility may want to request the ground floor.
  • Reservations are always required for evening meals.

Below is a summation of hundreds of user reviews on Island Inn Hotel.  Updated through November 2015.

  • The Staff are awesome.  Many of the staff have been working at the Island Inn Hotel numerous years,  maintaining a complete customer focus.
  • The Food is very tasty,  of a high quality,  and served with a smile.  The ice cream is amazing!   The chef will adapt the menu for special dietary needs.
  • The Rooms are spacious,  spotlessly clean,  and the beds are a nice size and comfortable.
  • The Pool is small but adequate.
  • Pebble Beach is right around the corner where you are able to rent sun beds and umbrellas to relax on their beautiful beach.
  • Ideal location for visiting:  The George Washington House, National Museum, Military Cemetery, Military Barracks, Race Course, Presidents House.  All are within walking distance.  Bridgetown is approximately a 30 minute walk.
  • Guests are able to visit the sister hotel,  (Mango Bay),  and enjoy their water sport amenities.

  • Afternoon tea with various sandwiches and pastries is very enjoyable.
  • A box lunch will be packed for guests if going out on a day’s excursion.
  • The Bar staff are friendly,  and,  is the area where most guests meet and chat.

Most frequent negative reviews about Island Inn Hotel

  • At first glance the Island Inn Hotel appears to be in need of a little TLC.
  • The food is good,  but the selection is limited.
  •  There are only a couple of umbrellas around the pool.  There is no shade in the afternoon sun.
  • Mosquitos and gnats are a big problem.  You will want to take bug spray with you.
  • No Wi Fi in rooms.  Can only be found in the reception area.

Other considerations

  • If you like early nights book a room away from the courtyard.   The courtyard rooms are close to the bar and entertainment.  The bar and entertainment stops at 11:00 P.M.
  • The Island Inn’s wedding package provides services of a personalized wedding coordinator to ensure each wedding is seamless and unique.
  • Horse racing is nearby when in season-check the calendar.  Every morning except on racing day the race horses are exercised in the ocean.  It is nice to watch them swim,  or to swim close by in their company.
  • There are green monkeys around the hotel which is a lovely sight to watch them interact in their natural habitat.
  • Guests say one of the best things about this hotel are other guests.  Because the hotel is so small guests happily chat and share a few drinks together.
  • This is not a buzzing party hotel.  But, if you are looking for something that is quant, clean, quiet and relaxing with a smaller personal touch to it,  this may be the hotel for you.

  • Overall good value for the money.

Most frequent negative reviews about Savannah Beach Hotel

  • The staff will run you up to a different beach free of charge.
  • The Savannah Beach Hotel is one of the oldest on the island.  It is described by many guests as small, quant, and charming.  Many guests think by being small,  it is easy to meet other guests,  which adds to your holiday experience.
