Gibbs Bay

There are no elevators at this hotel so be prepared to carry your luggage up to whatever floor your room is on. There is only one restaurant and there is scheduled times for breakfast, lunch and you have to make reservations for dinner. The beach is very small but there are bigger public beaches about a mile down the road. The boardwalk is not lit up at night so I wouldn’t risk trying to walk down it. The staff was very nice. The alcohol is included and the boardwalk sunset is a must on the menu. The buses you have to take to go anywhere drive EXTREMELY fast so make sure you’re holding on to something when you get in. You will hear them blowing the horns at all hours day and night. Their horns do not sound like our horns in the US and at first we thought there were elephants somewhere around. Overall we did have a good time and the hotel was nice as well as the staff. I would have preferred for there to be more than one restaurant tho. The food was good - just limited on times of when you can eat.

Just got back from a 6 day vacation in Barbados. My boyfriend and I stayed at this hotel, and overall we had a lovely experience. The hotel itself is small, about 30 rooms. We got lucky with the fact that there weren’t a lot of people at the resort, due to it being off season. One night we were even the only couple there which we thought was great. We had the whole resort to ourselves. It says on the website you can go to sister hotels for dining, but the only one available is the Waves… everything else is under construction. There is hotel construction currently happening next door at the neighbor hotel, but it didn’t bother us. The noise wasn’t loud so we had no issues. We thought the service and hospitality was great, everyone was really friendly and catered to our needs. There is only one small restaurant at the resort, I would probably rate the food 7/10. My favorite dining time which I thought had the tastiest food was lunch. They had live music, one person singing, 2 of the nights we were there. The room overall was nice and decent, we had a nice ocean view. Heads up there is a tiny strip of beach associated with the hotel, nothing crazy. In order to get chairs on the beach, you would have to ask someone to put them there for you. But there really isn’t much room, but overall if you’re not picky, it’s still very manageable. The hotel is about 25 minutes from the hotel. Overall, for the price we paid to stay during low season, I thought it was a good deal.

Good food and buffet menu. Needs a little maintenance in some areas
