I work at Crane Resort Barbados so I was expecting basically the same standards or just as close to the standards we have there, than the experience I had at Bay Gardens St Lucia.. so many issues, ranging from the extra long wait after checking in way before 4pm ( and being in the industry, i know sometimes it's extremely hard to have rooms ready by check in times) , so some of my family members didn't get a room until after 6pm (they were credited EC$50 to the room because of the wait). Then later in the night bugs was in my niece room,so I insisted on a room change at front desk, which they did, but to a 1 bedroom, i think it was mango path room 119, which front desk said, the next day a sofa bed would be made up to have back 2 beds after paying for double occupancy (which never happened), so both 20y/o young adults had to share a bed, because no one saw the need to make the adjustments for the room. Workers was not friendly at all, and we had to be continuously asking for bath mats, at one point dirty wash cloths was hang back up in the room.. I asked the room attendant for fresh ones and she stated her supervisor will put them in, i told her we will be going back out the room( because we had activities planned out,obviously cause we came to tour the island), she repeated herself again, i asked if i could atleast get an extra towel so i could use it temporarily as a mat until i could get one, she said again, her supervisor will put it in the room, so frustrating.............. then the last day of stay, a room attendant stole U$180 from my niece room, and we got no reimbursement.. we were told the room attendant had been working there a while (so I took it to mean that they clearly didn't believe my niece, but if we were of a different ethnicity, maybe she would have been reimbursed), and the room attendant only made the bed in the room and never even bothered to clean.. but she joyful walked away with my niece hard earned vacation money she saved up, which was in her bag and not even on a counter for them to assume it was a tip.. I would advise anyone to be cautious going to the hotel.. it's a convenient hotel since Rodney Bay is nearby, however if I was to return I would never stay there again!!! I'm still extremely angry about the theft and overall experience. 1 lady was almost always cheerful and friendly, with an infectious smile ,I don't remember her name, but we bought the overpriced snacks from the hotel because of her lol , I made sure to give her a tip, just for actually being the only one to make me feel welcomed! My 1st 2 days of stay I left a tip also, but I stopped because things as simple as bath towels, hand towels, washcloths and bath mats was almost never put into the rooms .. I stayed on Pineapple path inside room 129 (I hope management sees this and make some much needed changes to simple amenities and dishonest workers) .. We stayed at the hotel July 4th 2025 - July 8th 2025, we left the hotel in the very early morning on July 8th . We chose this hotel based on tik tok,and I'm annoyed because I didn't get the type of service based on the multiple social media post we looked through to help us make the unfortunate decision to book the hotel.
