Holiday Homes in Paynes Bay

"Beautiful grounds. Great restaurants. The rooms are very luxurious - especially the bathtubs. Entertainment is great too! Kids loved the pool. I do wish there were more pools for the kids to enjoy. Booking reservations for dinner was a nightmare though. We couldn't book in advance, were staying a week and on night one there was a restuarant already entirely booked! How does that even happen?! Also no kids in restaurants after 8pm!!! Finally check in was awful. We got there on time - rooms not ready & told to go eat first so we did - 2+ hours later rooms still not ready. I almost cried. They finally became available. That was completely unacceptable. Property was fine - but on the south part of the island so beaches not good (Sargasm) and far from the Main areas. Resort amenities made up for that with peppered in excursions. "

"The property is stunning.and very well kept. An upgrade to a contemporary suite is worth the extra money in my opinion. The staff were attentive and friendly. Housekeeping was great. The beach is beautiful, but unfortunately, seaweed is a huge problem. There is a shuttle to another beach though. The resort is close to the airport, but not much else. The food was very good. We enjoyed our stay very much."

"Lovely property! Great beach clean rooms and pools! Great food!"

"I had a great stay at this hotel in Barbados and would definitely recommend it, especially for travelers looking for something comfortable and affordable. The location is very convenient—about 15–20 minutes from the airport—and check-in was quick and easy. We arrived early and were welcomed with complimentary drinks at the pool bar, which was a nice touch. The property is clean and well-maintained, with a nice pool area, on-site shopping, and a restaurant. The beach is just a short walk away, and there’s also a restaurant right on the beach. It’s also within walking distance to St. Lawrence Gap for food, shopping, and entertainment. The rooms are set up like apartments, with full kitchens and private balconies. Everything was clean and comfortable, making it a great option for longer stays. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. While a few housekeeping staff weren’t as pleasant, it didn’t impact the overall experience. This is a solid mid-range option price wise—older, but well-kept—and a great value compared to more expensive resorts."

"Great location and price "

"The hotel was nice and centrally located. They definitely need to do some renovations as the wear and tear is showing. Overall a great vacation and the hotel staff were excellent."

"Amazing facilities"

"All in all the stay was excellent. Food was tasty, drinks were good. One of the best things was the late checkout option up till 6pm. Some points to note for improvement. Beach chairs were located at a very rough part of beach so you may want to swim at the section further away from the hotel. All inclusive suggests that food and drinks should be available all the time albeit less options but available."

"First the good… The properly is right off the beach which was lovely and the staff was kind and very professional. The staff helped make our trip a four star rather than a three star experience. Now the not so good… The food was just ok. There was also no food for snacking available in between scheduled mealtimes. And, the unacceptable.., During our stay we had a fire alarm go off at 4 am two nights in a row which immediately woke us up out of our sleep. The alarms lasted a few minutes which is a long time with a loud alarm when trying to sleep. "
