Fairmont Royal Pavilion

We just got back from our stay at the Fairmont Royal Pavilion and let me just say we never wanted to leave!! The food, the beach, the atmosphere, everything was top notch. Ryan down at the beach club was phenomenal, we are going to miss his smiling face! And Tia went above and beyond for us, she was amazing! We are telling everyone they need to go, you will not be disappointed!!!

Hotel is located on the west side of the island which favors calm waters with the hotel having direct beach access which was really great. Rooms are very spacious but could use a little upgrading, except for the bed which was the best nights sleep I've had. The property could use some maintenance and upgrading as well. I was disappointed that one of the restaurants closed for dinner without prior notification to the guests which limited menu availability and one restaurant available to eat on property. Luckily there are several excellent restaurants within walking and driving distance. The pool is small but accommodates the hotel nicely. Security around the hotel is also noticeable which was nice to see. Taxis and drivers are available at the hotel whenever you need which is convenient. Staff is very pleasant and helpful with excursions and dinner reservations as needed.

For me and my wife Fairmont Royal Pavilion is very special. We honeymooned here in 2023, and came again this year for our 2 year anniversary. Many of the staff at the hotel remembered us from our previous trip, and after walking away from our trip in 2023 with such happiness, this return very much felt like a welcome home. The proximity to the beach is unbeatable, the water is unreal, and the resort staff are really exceptional. Many to name, Renico, Dario, Shane, Michael, Simon, Glyne, Ryan, Lorenzo, St Claire, but the list extends to the rest of the staff and management. The food at the restaurant was excellent, and we loved the breakfast (whoever is making those pancakes deserves a raise). The resort was able to accommodate our early arrival, and very flexible throughout our stay. We extended our stay 2 more nights because we were having such a wonderful time, and the hotel facilitated the accommodation seamlessly. Couldn't ask for more.||We absolutely love Fairmont Royal Pavilion and had a wonderful time. We look forward to coming back, and I want to reiterate that the beautiful beach and awesome staff really make this a magical place to visit.

From the moment we arrived at the Fairmont in Barbados, we were welcomed with warm smiles and genuine hospitality that set the tone for an unforgettable stay. The food was consistently excellent—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, whether it was a casual beachside lunch or an elegant dinner.||What really stood out, though, was the staff. Every interaction felt sincere and attentive. You could tell the team enjoyed their work, and that kind of morale doesn’t happen by accident—it’s a reflection of strong, thoughtful management. When staff are supported and happy, it shows, and at the Fairmont, it translated into top-tier service across the board.||This wasn’t just a luxury experience—it felt personal. It’s clear that the Fairmont doesn’t just invest in its property, but in its people, and that makes all the difference. Highly recommended.||P.s. my wife would like to add: there are no bugs lol.

As a travel designer who has stayed at lots of resorts, I can confidently say the service at Fairmont Pavilion truly stands out. Ryan from the non-motorized water sports team at Fairmont Pavilion was absolutely amazing! He took us out on a sailboat excursion along the coast and made the whole experience so much fun. He was super friendly, knowledgeable, and had great energy the entire time. The best part? He even let me take over and sail for a bit! It was such a memorable highlight of our trip. If you’re staying at the Fairmont, definitely find Ryan, you won’t regret it!||And shoutout to Crystal at the restaurant, her service and hospitality were superb. She was so warm, attentive, and made us feel truly taken care of. Between the amazing staff and beautiful surroundings, this stay exceeded all expectations!

I had a hard time choosing a hotel on the West Coast. I had a budget in mind and was torn between three options. The Fairmont was running a special that made it the most affordable, so we booked it—though I’ll admit, some mixed reviews had me a bit nervous.||||After spending 7 nights there, I’m happy to say we’d absolutely return. All rooms are oceanfront with incredible views and perfect sunset-watching right from the balcony. The rooms themselves are very comfortable. The beach is lovely great for beach walking and collecting sea glass. ||||The included breakfast buffet was generous and delicious—so much so that we never even needed lunch. Staff were friendly throughout our stay. I did mention it was our anniversary when booking, and while it wasn’t acknowledged (which is fine), it’s worth noting in case that matters to you.||||While I wouldn’t call it a true 5-star experience compared to other Fairmont properties, I’m giving it 5 stars based on value for money. Considering the price, the view, and the overall comfort, this was a great find—and I highly recommend it.

The Fairmont is in a great location, with easy access to a sandy beach. Our room was comfortable with a lovely view, and we were lucky to catch a few incredible sunsets during our stay. It’s also just a short walk to Lonestar, which we ended up visiting several times — great food and a nice atmosphere.

It was a lovely one spent at Fairmont Royal Pavilion . It was one of the best hotel experiences I've ever had. The Room was spacious and comfortable, and the amenities were top-notch, with helpful and friendly staff. Front desk agents , concierge , restaurants are amazing and professional . Tia Maria , Keisha , Khadijah , Michael , all housekeeping are amazing. Food is very tasty . Room facing the beach is adorable . Beach team and health club are amazing . I would definitely stay here again in the future.
