We arrived in the morning but could not check in until 3pm - fair enough, we assumed we would be able to sit by the pool or on the beach. We were not able to use the facilities, staff suggested we walk to the local beach bar and return at 3pm. A fairly long walk in the sun with two kids, we made the best of it but obviously would have preferred to stay on site. We have done the same thing previously at Sugar Bay and were welcomed early with open arms. Given the price we paid we thought the check-in policy spoilt our stay. We moved to the resort from another hotel on the island, had we traveled direct from a transatlantic flight I would have been extremely surprised to have been asked to leave the resort. Otherwise, the hotel was fine. Nice facilities and good food. No shower facilities available after check out, but we were given our room for an extra hour. Hard to give anything above 2 stars with the check-in policy.

This was our second time at Waves and fourth time to Barbados. We decided to return to waves after six years because we loved the small and friendly feel of the place and the decor. On arrival, we were greeted by friendly staff and were shown to our room (204) quite quickly. Room 204 was perfect for us. It was big and the bed was the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in when staying at a hotel. The sea view is just gorgeous. The majority of staff were so welcoming and friendly and this is what makes Waves so special. They have a policy about not being allowed to reserve sun beds but some people ignored this and one day, a family reserved beds early in the morning, went off for the day, came back in the afternoon and decided to leave the beds. I find this behaviour really selfish especially when the beach is quite small and people wouldn’t have been able to use the beds. This is my only criticism, which is more about the guests than the hotel. We absolutely love Barbados and would recommend Waves to anyone.

We have just experienced the most perfect holiday at the Waves Hotel. We went with our 2 daughters aged 12 and 9 and can honestly say it’s one of the best holidays we have ever had! This hotel certainly know how to do hospitality! Kym who is both professional yet personable runs an amazing team of staff- had some lovely chats with Ryan and the ladies in the restaurant are so lovely and go out of their way to ensure your stay is special and the guys behind the bar also so warm and welcoming. The guy on the cleaning team who was often in the bar area in the mornings (I wish I could remember his name!! but he wore the blue staff t shirt, had long hair with a head scarf) honestly used to brighten my mornings with his cheery greeting and smile, always happy to welcome guests the whole time and warm nature. The setting is just stunning with a lounge area overlooking the ocean which is lovely and cool during the daytime and a great spot for cocktails and rum in the evening. Food is excellent in both restaurants. The spa is lovely and so nice to get 2 complimentary treatments. Only bit of feedback is that the first back massage I received was incredible but the second one later in the week was with a different person and wasn’t anywhere near as good (my husband said the same thing) so depends on which therapist you get to how good the treatment is. Definitely recommend Sam the Man and his tour of the island, felt we learnt so much about the island going out with him and he is a lovely and knowledgeable person. The turtle snorkelling trip is also incredible. We were so sad to leave. Thanks for giving us such lovely memories!
