Check-in was awful! Chec-in at the hotel starts at 4, so why was our room not ready until 6PM? We waited at the reception for 2 hours, very ridiculous! When we did get given the room it was awful so they swapped us to a lovely room. However, check-in was particularly appaling, a lot of waiting and faffing

Love the drinks

Booked reservation for two persons for two rooms. Upon check in, was given a single room with two twin/children beds for grown adults. I could not sleep properly on the bed without my feet off the bed. Approached front desk and they refused to do anything about it.

My stay at The Sands Barbados All Inclusive was very nice! I needed a quick weekend escape and this spot was perfect. The location was ideal — just a short walk to St. Lawrence Gap, with easy access to the Friday night fish fry and even a cozy lounge nearby. The food was delicious, the drinks were solid, and there was plenty of seating on the beach. Everyone was so friendly, which made the experience even better. Big kudos to Kemar, one of the standout staff members. He was absolutely great! I’ll definitely be back.

The food was ok. The drinks were also just ok. Very friendly staff. I would stay again just would plan on eating elsewhere.

Lovely staff. Always smiling. Beautiful location. Food great. Room was amazing as we got a free upgrade

access to the sea

We had a wonderful time; the staff were very friendly. Chad at guest services was very helpful in assisting with our tours; Cerylene and Lawrence in the restaurant were very friend along with the other staff. We had a 2 bedroom suite, nice loft style, but the bed was not too comfortable. I think the activities, especially the live night shows needs more variety or mixture. Almost every night was on the slow side.

Upon arrival to The Sands, we were greeted by friendly staff and offered a cold welcome drink of choice with instructions for an easy and quick self check in process. As we arrived prior to check in time, our room was not quite ready, but we were offered lunch and were invited to start enjoying the many amenities available to all guests. After a short wait, we were assisted with our luggage to a beautiful two bedroom ocean view suite with a separate living and dining area. Suite was presentable and clean. Breakfast, which was a buffet, offered a variety of options including scrambled eggs, cheese, vegetables, fruit, yogurt, cereals, breads or eggs cooked fresh any style. Fresh juices, coffee and tea was available. At breakfast you would reserve a time for lunch and supper. Supper varied from buffet to A La Carte. As my spouse and I are on the go individuals, we rarely booked our meals as our days were usually booked exploring Barbados, however, the staff was very accomodating if we ended up back at the resort without a reservation for supper. The bar staff was great, offering a variety of cocktails, wine and beer. The beach was beautiful with clear turquiose water and white powdery sand. Although we visited during a very abnormally windy week, you could enjoy a safe swim to cool off. The Sands gave us a true sense of island life. It reminded us that we need to slow down and enjoy life. Thankyou to The Sands and staff for making us feel at home, away from home.

Short but good stay. Comfortable bed good air conditioning lovely pool and beach. Food was very good. Staff was nice.

Staff efficient and friendly. Excellent position on the beach. Food good. Rooms comfortable, bit old fashioned. Enjoyed our overnight stay.

The beach is perfect by this hotel

The property is beautiful and on the beach. The access to the continental breakfast was late. Was there at 645am trying to get something to eat before my excursions but the staffer Sachea was rude when i entered the kitchen area. Shouting that certain items werent the continental breakfast. How would I know? Every hotel over the world doesnt have the same items for a continental breakfast. They should also install a soda/juice machine so people can get their own soda sometimes instead of waiting for staff at the table sometimes they take too long. The buffet breakfast was amazing, the fruit was fresh & sweet, the room was nice and the balcony was huge. You guys should also play more soca. There are christmas soca songs and try to incorporate more island dishes.

Property is nice - however rooms are dated and in need of an upgrade and the front desk is in need of a total face lift. Food and service was fantastic .

Personable staff. Bartenders were terrific just a bit slow.

Love the experience! The only negative thing I would say about this hotel , is that they didn’t have AC in the livingroom only in the bedrooms. Safe was amazing location amazing ! I love barbados

Management of this hotel need to work on the following: 1. Customer service esp at the front desk and dining area. Cyrelene is the only hostess who does it well. 2. Security guard does not do anything - made a complaint about loud local kids who hit my beach chair and guests smoking near my beach chair. 3. Smoking is allowed everywhere and around kids but they have a designated area for smoking near the pool. You can be relaxing at the beach enjoying the fresh air and someone next to you is smoking. 4. Website mentioned 2 places to eat. The big dining area only serve BUFFET for BREAKFAST and the a la carte portion is small. The 2nd restaurant is a one time deal for every 7 days stay. Open Mon - Thur dinner only. We reserved Monday night and was not allowed to eat because we were wearing flip flops but we wear dress well. 5. My husband ordered fried eggs since he was vegetarian and was given an attitude by the cook but she apologized. The following staff want to mention for their service: Simona Shamar Destiny Tamari Amari Sherika Antonio Cyrelene Romario Upon arrival at the hotel I said to my husband we will visit Barbados every year and will stay at this hotel. This is not case anymore.

Rooms were clean, food was average, bar was slow, didn’t like that mice were running around outside while trying to have dinner.

Blown away by the intimacy, privacy, friendliness, and cleanliness of the beach. We are well traveled in the Caribbean, and this was such a nice place to visit! We did an island tour and catamaran tour where we were able to see turtles, sting rays etc. only draw back was kids aren’t allowed in the “fine dining restaurant”, however meals were just fine! The coral reefs weren’t as impressive as some of the other Caribbean locations we’ve been, but that’s outta the resorts control. Would def recommend! Had zero beach peddling trying to sell us stuff, felt safe letting 2 kids (7/9) run wild on the beach! It felt like a private beach! The rooms were ice cold (which we love and is uncommon in these type of destinations) Put in on your list of places to visit and enjoy a piece of paradise!

Overall, it was a good experience. Nice place. Clean and well maintained. I wish food choices were better. My biggest disappointment was the coral riff around the hotel in dead so no marine life to observe around the hotel. However for $2 can take a small bus up north to find some fish around sunk ships and large boulders.
