Sea Breeze House Bed and Breakfast
Macclesfield, United Kingdom
I would recommend Sea Breeze guest house Ilfracombe to anybody.
Lovely owners, spotlessly clean and fabulous breakfast. Good size room with very comfortable beds.
Ilfracombe is well worth a visit.
A real credit to owners and staff.

No stress, just relax - enjoyed every minute
Hale, United Kingdom
I wouldn't normally post a review before I get back home but felt compelled to do so for a number of reasons. For one, we are having a great time and being looked after very well by all of the staff.
To summarise:
1. We have a fantastic family room on the 4th floor of the new Mahogany building. The room has wonderful views of the ocean, is very clean and well appointed with everything we need (including daily stocked minbar as part of the deal).
2. Our experience of the food has been very good so far - there is a decent choice and everything seems to be fresh.
3. Drinks - lots of choice and cocktails a plenty. Good rum tastings and cocktail making training!
4. The beach is right there - plenty of sunbeds and watersports (catamaran, body boards, kayaks, etc.)
5. Staff - everyone has been great and very helpful.
6. Seaweed - yes, there has been a problem all over the Caribbean. We have been lucky in our first week as very little seaweed present. There has been a light return today but the hotel has done all they can to minimise the issue and the impact on the holiday.
7. Entertainment - low key and in the evenings (singing etc.). Don't expect big shows and lots of noisy poolside stuff.
8. Pools. 2x family and 1x adult (very quiet). All sunbeds served drinks including those on the beach.
For anyone expecting a huge faceless corporate resort, this is not it. Rather, you will get a more personal experience. Also, the Barbados way of life is relaxed... Ok, sometimes it takes a little while longer to eat in the Flying Fish, but who's in a rush? You have the ocean to look at and cocktails to drink! If you find yourself needing something quickly, the buffet works very well.
Based on our experience so far, I do feel that some of the negative reviews I have seen are quite polarised. Of course there are niggles with every holiday but the the staff and management are committed to making the holiday as special as they can, including good advice on excursions.
I don't want to single any staff member out for their work as they have all be very good - I hope the management sees this review and passes our gratitude onto all. We also appreciated the management being very visible and accessible.
I would certainly recommend this resort and thank you, Sea Breeze!

Summer holiday
Just returned from the sea breeze,we found this to be a resort of two halves,one side is all out kids & family & the other adults only,we stayed in the quiet adults part of the hotel,the room was very bright & comfortable with a great super king bed & my photos are of our excellent room view,there was a sea weed problem on the beach when we arrived but this was soon sorted with help from the bobcat,see pic. The sea breeze has had a recent refurb and a nice job has been done,but there are a few teething problems,there is no hotel info booklet in your room so it took us a few days to work out how things worked,ie when the restaurants were open? What food did they serve ? How do you sort the beach towels ?
We worked all this out but info in your room would be a lot easier,the staff in general were fine a few of the younger ones had the usual attitude issue but isn’t this the case worldwide!
Would we return ,,maybe but we do prefer west coast Barbados to south coast,with some small tweaks and fine tuning this will be a great place to stay

Disappointing customer service
Northwich
I’ve recently travelled with my family to Barbados and wanted to give a review on how disappointed we were with our stay at the Sea Breeze hotel.
We expected to have a relaxing stress-free holiday but instead had to deal with frustrations every day as a result of what can only be classed as 1/2 star service (at 4 star prices).
On arrival at the hotel it took three hours for them to sort out our rooms. Despite requesting two twin rooms through you a number of times, they issued us with two double rooms and even had a 17 year old girl and 14 year old boy (unrelated to each other) in one room! They tried to resolve this but no other rooms were available so we had to put up with doubles.
Every day there were frustrations over the level of services; these ranged from food not being available (bread, butter, food from the buffet etc), cutlery and crockery missing, hot drinks turning up cold when they eventually were served, lunch taking anything from 30 minutes to 2 hours to serve, the pool guy helping a family to move our sunbeds near the smoking area (when we had got up early to ensure we did not have this spot), having to give our room number 8 times to staff before we were able to collect a packed lunch that was 40 minutes late to arrive.
With the exception of a few, the staff were quite rude and half the time did not listen to what we asked for (numerous wrong drinks given). It felt that they begrudged having to serve us.
We spoke to a number of other families and they all felt the same. We went on an independent boat trip and the crew said they’d heard how bad the service was there too!
The beach at the hotel has been affected by the seaweed issue and the sea was brown and pungent. I appreciate the hotel cannot help this but from the Sunday until we left on the Thursday we didn’t see anyone clean the seaweed to try and make it pleasant for everyone. Please see the photo of our last day.
There are 4 restaurants; two serve delicious food and deserve the title restaurant. The other two were more poolside areas to eat. There were 2 weddings whilst we were there and each time they closed the decent restaurant thus limiting choice. Everyone paid all inclusive prices expecting to be able to use all of the restaurants so it was disappointed to have 3 nights of the 7 that we were unable to. It seems the hotel are looking to double up on income.
We overheard the manager saying that since they had extended the hotel they were having issues with staffing and getting them up to standard; that was an understatement and should reflect in the price we pay for the holiday.
When we checked out we were asked if we wanted to donate to their tourism charity; we said no, after our experiences, and when we checked the receipt they had taken the money off anyway. So we started with a bad experience and finished with one.
These may all seem small things in isolation but I’m sure you can appreciate that every day consisting of one or another of these examples did not make for a relaxing holiday on which we have spent a large sum of money.
We are usually very satisfied with our holiday accommodation so I’m not writing this lightly. Would not return.

Great hotel
Leeds, United Kingdom
Was very impressed with Sea Breeze hotel. We have just returned from two weeks with our family and I would go back. Staff on the whole lovely however service at times is slow - especially the Flying Fish where it was the norm to wait about an hour for food. It feels as if the hotel has recently expanded but the staff/service have not quite caught up with the new size/demand. Our favorite place was the rum shop and we enjoyed rum tasting and bingo with Peggy. Unfortunately we did suffer from the bad seaweed but full credit to the hotel for bussing us to a nearby beach. My only 'complaint' would be the lack of snacks available on an evening - there is nowhere to get any food after dinner and often my son was hungry later on. We would love to return and hopefully enjoy the beach and sea as it should be.
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.
Three Swimming Pools
The resort boasts three swimming pools perfect for early morning swims or to cool off in the afternoon under the warm Bajan sunshine. Including a pool for families and adults only, find your perfect spot to enjoy lazy afternoons, with poolside wait service you don't even need to get up to get a drink.
These bright and colourful rooms are located on the ground floor and can be steps away from either the adults-only or family pools. Perfect for couples or families these rooms boast a terrace with views of the gardens and pool. Featuring a king-size bed or two queens, tea and coffee making facilities, mini fridge and complimentary Wi-Fi.
These rooms feature the same luxury amenities and facilities as the Poolside Garden View room but boast stunning ocean views from the furnished balcony.
These contemporary junior suites command uninterrupted views of the stunning Caribbean Sea from the bed, living area and balcony. 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.
Mahogany Restaurant & Lounge
Opening in April 2018, this brand new restaurant pays homage to the mahogany trees that were once in its location by incorporating them into the design and offers a beach chic feel. Serving Bajan and Caribbean cuisine for lunch and dinner whilst serving up a delicious buffet for breakfast.
Cerulean
The resort's signature fine dining restaurant, serving international bests and boasting stunning ocean front views providing an intimate and romantic setting. Blue decor to match the ocean surrounding it Cerulean is open for a la carte dinner only.
