Hopefully the title sums up our report! We were wowed by the hotel on arrival with lovely reception staff and a strong rum punch. Then we were shown to a stunning room (244) which was at the back of the resort, but raised up so we had view across the gardens and out to sea. I'm certain we were upgraded... more

Our stay in Crystal Cove was mostly very good. I have to say the first week of our 2 week holiday was just what we'd been after, a total get away, arriving for evening 'a la carte' dinner, we were very impressed. The hotel at this point wasn't very full, and the service was faultless. However, the second week, brought... more

We wanted an all inclusive in Barbados & this one out of the 3 we were considering seemed to be the better value. We received a good price from WIOL.com. We were glad we chose this resort. We stayed 8 nights. St James is considered the gold coast (better land value) so that means the water is calmer than the... more

My husband and I stayed here for 9 nights - our first trip to this island. The staff are very friendly, Michael the bellman especially. We were greeted with rum punch and a seat in the gorgeous open-air lobby. It is high up and gives a really spectacular view of the main area. The grounds are beautiful and such a... more

We really loved this hotel. When we arrived we were greeted with a rum cocktail which was delicious. We were then shown to our room. The staff went to so much effort. Our towels were laid in the shape of a swan and they had scattered rose petals on our bed. The food was of excellent quality. You can only... more

We stayed at Crystal Cove's sister hotel, Turtle Beach, on the South coast 3 years ago and spent quite a bit of time at Crystal Cove during the day. We always said that when we returned to Barbados that we would stay at Crystal Cove as we really liked the vibe so it was our first choice when we decided... more

The Cystal Cove is a great hotel. The food in both restaurants is of a good to high standard. Buffet style and waiter service.The breakfasts are also very good. The cocktails and drinks are wonderful. Draught beer, local and international spirits. Good range of watersports, not all are included in the hotel so check before you go. The pool was... more

I can't stress just how good this hotel is. My fiancé and I had wanted to return to Barbados for a while since our first visit in 2005, and knew we wanted to stay on the west coast, as we'd enjoyed it there before. We were so so pleased that we had chosen Crystal Cove for our accomodation, as it... more
