In terms of facilities, there are three swimming pools – a lively one by the beach with a swim-up bar, the elegant one with cabanas, and a 200m-long lagoon pool that snakes under bridges and jets of water. Mid-priced Club Level rooms come with access to a concierge lounge.
If you stay in one of the top-end suites, you will have access to round-the-clock service from uniformed butlers trained by the Guild of Professional English Butlers guests are given a mobile phone pre-set with their number to summon them at any time. You can expect a can-do attitude and ear-to-ear smiles from all the staff you come across. Service at Sandals resorts is generally outstanding by Caribbean standards, and that is true at this Barbados property.
