Delivered All Expectations!
United Kingdom
As a first time visitor to Barbados (and the Caribbean) I obviously had certain expectations based on what I had seen and heard, sun, sea (blue) and sand (white), I wasn’t disappointed and the Sea Breeze hotel did not disappoint either!
We had a luxury ocean view junior suite, these rooms are virtually brand new with a queen size bed and a fold out bed for the kids. The room was spacious, modern, clean and the decor perfectly matched the surroundings, laid back, relaxing with an ocean overview. There was a wooden floor, much easier to keep clean than carpets, a decent size balcony which directly overlooked the beach and gave fantastic views out to sea. The bathroom was huge with a walk in shower, very modern, there was a 55” wall mounted TV in the main room and the room was tidied and cleaned to a high standard on a daily basis. We also had a mini bar consisting of local beers, branded spirits and water/soft drinks. Whatever was consumed was replaced exactly the following day, a nice bonus and something I was not aware of when booking the room!
There are a couple of a la carte restaurants as well as a buffet style one at the Sea Breeze, you have to ensure you have a reservation for whichever one you choose, usually done at breakfast. We found the food to be excellent whichever option we choose, really good quality with lots of choice, the buffet is relatively small and could get quite busy at times with some of the dishes running out quite quickly. To the hotels credit if a dish did run out then it was not long before it was replaced so despite the limitations on the size of the buffet area the hotel did a great job ensuring there was always adequate food to cater for everyone. I really cannot speak highly enough of the food, in the two weeks we stayed I did not have a single bad meal and there was always something new to try. As it is an all inclusive hotel then drinks our obviously offered with your meals, unlike other all inclusive resorts I noticed the wine options were branded wines around the £8/£10 mark and were poured from the bottle, a small point but I thought it it added to the ‘quality’ aspect of the hotel. The staff would also make up a non alcoholic cocktail for the kids at lunch or dinner which they loved and I thought this was a nice touch as well.
Obviously one of the main benefits of this hotel (clue is in its name) is its proximity to the sea. Walking out of the main restaurant you literally walk on to the beach which is a huge stretch of white sand book marked by an outcrop of boulders at either end so it is exclusively for hotel guests, the sea is deep blue, warm (excellent for snorkelling) and there are plenty of fish to see. I suppose you have these expectations if you have never visited the Caribbean before of white sand, warm blue sea and sunshine and it was exactly that, I have never spent so much time in the sea on any holiday before, it was fantastic. There are loads of activities that the hotel provide to help you further enjoy your time from beach cricket for the kids (and adults!) kayak hire, rides on jet skis etc. We never tired of being in and around the water or on the beach. If sea and sand are not to your liking then the hotel also has a few swimming pools, one of them an adults only one. The sun beds around the main pool would be ‘reserved’ quite quickly of a morning and it would not be uncommon for there to be none left by around 9am so something to bear in mind, the main pool also could get a little crowded at times as it is not the biggest swimming pool you will ever see, thankfully there is a third pool a little bit more suited if you wanted to swim lengths but again this was not always possible due to how many people where using it.
We found all the staff at the Sea Breeze extremely helpful and polite and they where more than prepared to share their knowledge of the island with you and would help with advice if you where planning any trips away from the hotel, it is not a huge hotel which I really liked so there was almost a family feel to how it was run and I got the sense the staff where proud of what they delivered.
All in all an excellent stay, the two weeks flew by and I will definitely be looking to return at some point.

Relax, Relax, Relax.
A superb resort in a good location with great food. It is the ideal place to relax and chill out. the accommodation was excellent. We stayed in a beach front junior suite which had a large balcony where we could sit, away from the direct sunlight, and watch the world go by.

Underwhelming holiday
Nefyn, United Kingdom
We travelled as two families a party of 10 in May 2019. A goodbye holiday to our eldest son who was leaving the UK to live in Australia.
The welcome at reception was stern and not overly friendly.
The rooms were nice not fabulous but ok and clean. Travelling with children we were placed next to the adults only pool. Literally next to.
Dinner on the first night set the tone for the entire holiday, we weren't allowed to dine together as a party. Quite sternly we were told NO.
Then the next night we witnessed a group of 10 eating together and was told you had to ask? The were no formal rules just depended on the mood of the maitre'd. This yes/no policy continued for the 10 nights....
The "watersports" were two catamarans.
Very basic for a beach resort.
Sunbeds were reserved with towels very early morning by guests.
Few sunbeds around a very small pool.
There were two huge wedding parties staying, who dominated the bar area and poolside. Everything in the hotel was geared around them. Then another "day"wedding was held which closed one of restaurants for the evening as well as the two wedding parties.
Some of the staff were phenomenal , really engaging funny and loved their job. Thank you.
Some of the staff were a disgrace, rude and arrogant which is a total shame .
The last evening i sat down in the restaurant in tears after the lady maitre'd was rude. So i explained this had totally ruined my holiday. She didn't care. After we had finished our meal (separately) again, she apologised and said she hoped it hadn't ruined our 10 night holiday???
I have no logic for this.
I wrote to the hotel and received no reply. Filled in their feedback questionnaire naming the fantastic staff and the really not so fantastic staff . received nothing from the hotel.
Genuinely, I don't feel they care about their guests. There are plenty of amazing hotels in Barbados. Save your money genuinely this isn't one of them.
If i can save you from this place taking the time to write this review has been worth it!!

FABULOUS HOLIDAY IN A GORGEOUS LOCATION
Great Malvern, United Kingdom
We had a wonderful family holiday at Sea Breeze and it was definitely one of our best holidays. The location is stunning and all our needs were met. We look forward to returning some day soon and I highly recommend it.

Utterly underwhelming
jackbugger
Considering just how expensive Brabados is ,one is under the impression there will be a "wow" factor.This hotel most certainly does not have it.
We 've just returned from what was supposed to be a memorable 70th birthday celebration and felt utterly flat even from forst being showed to our room by a guy who seemed pretty diffident and not exactly welcoming.
The room was fine,kept very clean and no complaints there.
Pools are nice and location on the oceanfront takes some beating.
Odd then that we should spend most of our week looking at othre beaches where we found locals actually smiled and wanted to engage with us as we handed over our money for food/drinks. Sea Breeze we found lacked soul so evident in the risible evening entertainment and virtually non existent daytime entertainment and given this hotel is pretty isolated guests really do want to be entertained to some degree and not by a sullen saxophonist gazing out into space.
Some sullen waiting on staff and long waiting times does not make a big birthday memorable and I found it hard to forgive .However,those returning guests seemed to be far les prone to distain or indifference.
Looking around Barbados ,it is desperately poverty striken mainly down to a recent corrupt government so people are worried about jobs and falling tourist numbers evident by our hotel which seemed half empty.That aid,staff shouldnt treat customers-their bread and butter-with disinterest. I hasten to add not all taff had this attitude ,ome a joy to talk to but my God,something is wrong with this hotel and it needs a major rethink.Meh
The hotel has access to two beaches; the eastern one providing a comfortable atmosphere with sun loungers, umbrellas and watersports, while the second is a little more"rugged" whilst still offering comfortable loungers and a drinks service.

The resort boasts three swimming pools perfect for early morning swims or to cool off in the afternoon under the warm Bajan sunshine.

Perfect for couples or families these rooms boast a terrace with views of the gardens and pool.

The suites are open-plan and feature either a king-size bed or two queens and are decorated with warm Bajan colours, mini bar, daily in-room canape selection and a complimentary beach bag.
Open for lunch and dinner, Aqua Terra promotes a relaxed yet elegant atmosphere. With the sounds of the waves echoing through the open feel of this restaurant, it serves fresh seafood and delicious steaks. After your meal head to Sunset Deck - the perfect place to have a post meal cocktail.
