What a disaster from start to finish….our stay at the Fairmont Royal Pavilion in Barbados. I’ll begin with the positive….the beach. The beach itself is lovely with nice sand and blue, warm water. This is not a 5 star establishment. This is a property in desperate need of refurbishment. Everywhere we looked things were broken, moldy, etc. While trying to relax at the pool mid day, landscapers were working and making noise. The pool ran out of towels consistently, and service to get lunch was spotty at best. No luxuries like bottled water, cool towels, etc. It was more of a “serve yourself” type attitude during the duration of our stay. Palm Terrace was a 2 star dinner at a 5 star price. Underwhelming in offerings, and flavor. We went outside the property with our rental car and had magnificent meals elsewhere. Front desk staff downright rude. Unsightly ATM machine in the middle of the lobby, No comfortable lobby nooks to relax, no games to play. Our room wasn’t made up when we went up at 3:45 pm to shower for a 5 pm sunset dinner at The Cliff. No fresh towels. I could go on and on about the disappointments of this “resort”. There were just two employees that truly made our stay more bearable, always a pleasant smile, uplifting attitude and kindness. Special shout out to Hakeem, Restaurant Manager and Shane, who generally works the beach. Every employee should take a page from their book. They were professional, and tried to go above and beyond - they deserve praise, and a raise, from management!

We arrived 27 November for 10 days and write this on our last evening. Shared the same concerns as the review immediately below, but were not overly affected by the finishing of works. There appears to be an ongoing upgrade to the Fairmont, with the main restaurant and bar looking good for the improvements. Breakfast was perfect with good choice and a change in offering from day to day. We often ate in Holetown in the evening and JuJus during lunch so it wasn’t an issue as the Tabora kitchen was being finished. Most of the buildings and the entire grounds are immaculate. What set this hotel apart for us was the friendliness of staff. We were constantly greeted and the staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome and valued. Likewise the guests who reciprocate that which creates a good atmosphere around the hotel. Too many staff to mention but Michael by the beach and Anthony on maintenance were excellent, as were all the bar staff. Look forward to returning to Barbados and the Fairmont Royal Pavilion.

Excellent rooms , relaxing stay with good food and drink options. Staff friendly but sometimes rather slow , particularly at breakfast. Most disappointing aspect was guests “ reserving” sunloungers and staff not controlling this even when left unused for several hours. Particularly strange as there are in fact plenty of beds if not blocked !

Just spent a week at the Royal Pavillion and was so happy we did. The staff greeted us warmly and were very attentive. The rooms with the ocean views were perfect. The grounds, although pretty look like they need a little updating as it looks like it hasn’t been painted in a few years. The breakfast area could be renovated as it is very hot while having breakfast and the area where food is served looks old. Overall we loved the Royal Pavillion and look forward to returning.

Hotel is the best location, literally 10 meters from room to the sea. Beach side restaurant on site is high quality, and the location is great to access high quality places locally. Rooms are immaculate, house keeping is on point and fresh. Linen perfect for a great nights sleep. All in all just perfect for a recharge in one of the most idyllic settings you will find.

This is the hotel I go to in my dreams. It’s simple, really. A low line of motel-style rooms all along the sea, with the water practically lapping at your door. It’s heaven. The rooms are small and difficult to live out of (tiniest fridge ever), but it’s worth it for the serenity of this location. Service is very good and attentive - you’ll get an ice bucket on the beach and you can stay put all day. The food is not amazing and more Bajan specialties cooked with soul would improve the experience. We recently stayed at a different property along this coast and I was reminded of why I love the Fairmont. I’m already dreaming of my next trip back.

A wonderful hotel, with a breathtaking location on the West Coast of Barbados. Service was impeccable, the rooms delightful and the beach itself was as you hoped for on a Caribbean Island. Our family had a wonderful time,plenty to see and do and the hotel’s location made it easy to travel to all parts of the Island. Highly recommended and thanks again to all the staff that made it a memorable holiday

The hotel, infrastructure and beach location are excellent. The staff are friendly and helpful. The service and food at dinner time in the palm terrace was of a high standard. Room for improvement at lunch in the Taboras - the waiting time to take orders and deliver them is too long. Several tables are located with the sun impacting on some of those seated; this makes the experience unpleasant.

The hotel is run down with terrible restaurants and food options (poaching eggs in the same pot as boiling eggs is not ok). The bedroom we stayed in (ground floor with private deck) was damp and all clothes we unpacked smelled coming out of the wardrobe. Cleanliness left a lot to be desired. The pool was a real disappointment. This hotel dines out on the fact that the beach / location is decent. We left early and the hotel shrugged their shoulders and told us bad luck they were charging us anyway. We paid over $2k a night for this average 3* rubbish. Please don’t be fooled.
