St. James Hotels with Bars / Lounges

"I really liked The Club, it was very cozy and clean. It was great too because they have both a beach and pool on premises. The property is laid out in more of a villa design. Rooms were quiet and clean. There was some kind of entertainment every night, and there are 2 restaurants and a food truck on site. Get your reservations early! One thing of note, the food service staff was not exactly friendly. In the morning they would pour your coffee and zip off not returning at all to see if you needed cream- so black coffee it was..... Food was more catered to British and Canadian crowd, which I was ok with. Most Americans would miss a more familiar cuisine. Lastly, I felt the really nice thing was that although our plan left at 4 and checkout was 11, The Club allows you to stay and enjoy all while they place your bags on the side. You won't be kicked out and they won't charge you extra. Overall a very nice place!"

"While the room and the pool were adequate, I had a number of problems with this property. They ran my Amex card three times for my deposit (it showed up immediately on my Amex app even though they claimed that it had not gone through on their machine); guest laundry cost $20 but they did not sell detergent. Breakfast had very limited choices. The guest rooms have an 8 digit code you have to memorize in order to enter. A fob key or 4 digits would be reasonable. The attitude of the evening duty manager was woeful, and the lady in the morning was not much better. Sour would have been a compliment. Does this hotel not want guests? They didn't seem to. Having 'failed' to run the deposit they then wanted to take $150 in cash. As I pointed out, their faulty card machine was not my fault. And in the end, they ran my card for $450. Beware and stay somewhere that actually wants your business. "

"Ok"

"A lovely holiday with fantastic staff, but let down by departure day. Our recent stay here was genuinely lovely, largely thanks to the fantastic staff who were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our entire trip. The accommodation was excellent, the food was great, and the amenities were generally very good. If you are travelling with family, the kids' club is absolutely fantastic. If you like to work out while away, be aware that the fitness/gym facility is quite poor. The space is very limited, and there is a distinct lack of weight training equipment available. Unfortunately, our day of departure really put a dampener on the trip. We asked to keep our room for a short while to wash and change before our flight, but we were refused because "new clients were arriving." Given that a large portion of the hotel's guests travel from the UK, the flight schedules meant it was highly unlikely new arrivals would be needing our specific room while we were still on the property. It gave us the distinct impression that the hotel was only interested in keeping new arrivals happy at the expense of departing guests. Eventually, we were provided with a courtesy room to wash in, but the state of it was awful. It had a bad smell and was left in a total mess, complete with empty bottles and a huge pile of wet towels left behind. We had a beautiful holiday, but the way we were treated on departure day was a very disappointing end to an otherwise great holiday"

"Brilliant location, helpful staff and clean. It's a little dated but that didn't impact our stay as it's what we expected. Beds were comfortable and shower powerful."

"Happy atmosphere, comfortable room, beautiful beach, great food and attentive staff…loved our time at Mango Bay"

"Winston and Carlisle were very accommodating and helpful if we had any questions and the amenities were appreciated would reccomend to anybody "

"Spacious one bedroom, lovely pool, only a few apartments on site, great community. Manager Janice, housekeeper Christine, and maintenance person Jason are all very friendly and accommodating. Within walking distance to everything you need. Would definitely stay again:)"

"We had a fabulous time at The Coral Reef Club , from The amazing Food , Beautiful accommodation to a wonderful staff , the accommodate your every Wim , so attentive and pleasant. Every spot at the beach is great . Water sports included . I would ask for a meal plan we were unaware of it and it does save money , especially since there’s just one restaurant for whole Place . They have nightly entertainment which was awesome . Staying in a Villa makes you really feel the Vibe of Barbados unlike the traditional hotels in the Caribbean . It’s not as loud or Busy and that’s the Vibe we were looking for . Would definitely come Back . "
