Els Resorts a Saint James

"The room was very spacious and comfortable with a great sized balcony overlooking the garden and pool area. Bedroom was a great size and decor fresh and modern. Bed was super comfy and a great size. The restaurant and food was great. Good selection of drinks at the bar and restaurant. View from the terrace overlooking the sea is amazing with perfect sunset. There is no beach but you do have access to Sandy Lane Beach which is stunning. You cannot use the loungers as these are for the guests at the exclusive Sandy Lane hotel but you can sit on sand and go for a swim. Overall this is a lovely hotel resort with very friendly staff. If you are planning to take advantage of the all Inclusive it’s great value for money."

"All great"

"Great location right on the beach. Extremely friendly staff. Large spacious rooms very well appointed."

"The food quality is average. Drinks fine but wine selection is very poor. It is expensive as everything thing is in Barbados however I believe this was particularly overpriced."

"Beautiful layout, fabulous staff and wonderful room"

"Aucun."

"The recently refurbished rooms were excellent. There were plenty of new sunbeds by all pools and on the beach and we really liked the resort layout and and the lovely colourful buildings."

"Only one of two restaurants were open resulting in lack of food choice, breakfast was good but in the main restaurant the food was average at best. Training of staff really needs to be improved, as on numerous occasions we got different answers to questions from different staff (especially reception staff that were poor at communication and did not follow up on requests). We also spoke to many other unhappy guests that had serious issues with their rooms. For example: One elderly couple got locked in their first floor room for 2hrs, the telephone was not working and therefore they could not raise the alarm. Also, a number of rooms did not have any hot water, 2 rooms also flooded whilst we were there and the majority of rooms had telephones & TVs not working. We feel there was a lack of evening entertainment, only 3 nights out of 7 during our stay. Also, no daytime activities although according to our daily programme received on arrival, there should have been something going on every day. The resort was obviously opened too soon following the renovations as these issues should have been picked up prior to opening."

"The staff here are amazing, Antwone made us feel very welcome and Esther was fabulous at the cooking station. Our room was very clean and comfortable The spa and the staff were fabulous"

"We stayed in the adult only which at first I didn’t like crossing the road but as soon as you get to reception and you see that view it’s all worth it."
