Sandy Lane Hotel

Everything about the Sandy Lane is exceptional. From the huge, gorgeous rooms with lavish marble bathroom, to the exceedingly comfortable bed and large balcony overlooking the beautiful turquoise waters, to the fantastic beach and Beach Butler Service, to the pristine pool, everything is top notch and first class. The service is absolutely wonderful, and the little touches like the frozen lollipops by the pool and the spritzer as you Sun yourself just add to the overall experience. Also thoroughly enjoyed the chauffeured ride in the Rolls-Royce from the airport. The food was also very good and plentiful and the ambience of the place is truly relaxing and luxurious. Absolutely love this place and will be back.

We recently returned from a 6-night stay at Sandy Lane, our first venture to Barbados, and were thoroughly impressed with our time there. The resort itself has all the facilities you'd expect of a 5 star hotel, but is really set apart by its wonderful staff. The folks we interacted with were, without exception, great ambassadors of both the island and the resort. The spa and fitness facilities were on par with any such facilities we have encountered at other resorts and the food and beverage options were, although not inexpensive, well above par, even with an island full of above grade restaurants. I did my best to sample every gin on the island and my better half found the rum sours to be without comparison. Entertainment was available every evening and several times during the day, which really provided great opportunities for the guests to intermingle, including a crazy conga line late one evening in the Monkey Bar, a great stop for a last cocktail or two to top off the night. ||The rooms were large and well maintained, and close to the beach, so in the morning it was easy to roll out of bed and onto the beach, after an initial stop at the Baijan Blue to enjoy breakfast, which was spot on in quality and expansive in offerings. Service on the beach (as well as the one day we spent at the pool) was prompt and food and drinks were above expectations for even these more casual meals. We did not take advantage of any of the golf or tennis facilities, other than a stop at the country club for an afternoon glass of wine, but they looked pristine and should merit any visitor's attention.||One opportunity which we'd heartily recommend was the Seaduced shared catamaran trip, not only did we enjoy swimming with the sea turtles, we loved the opportunity to spend the afternoon meeting new people and the 4 person crew were all both professional and friendly, and the food and drink were beyond what was expected based on prior boat trips in other venues. Shout outs to Tony, Josh, Destiny and Dante.||Perhaps as curious to us as anything we encountered was the lack of American guests and the lengthy repeat stays from the guests that we spoke to, it not being unusual to find that people had made at least an annual trip to Sandy Lane for several decades. Think that the Irish and British have done a good job at keeping this jewel to themselves!||Finally, its impossible to ignore that there is a monetary cost to such a great stay, but can say with some degree of confidence that every dollar was well spent and the final bill didn't subtract a bit from the great time that we had. Highly recommend a trip to Sandy Lane be added to your bucket list!

This is certainly the most fabulous hotel I've stayed in. The staff seriously could not be any better, they treat every guest like royalty and are so attentive and detail oriented. Rakeem and Travis at the beach made our day every time we saw them and they were both incredible, and Whitney in the lobby was so wonderful- we especially appreciated the three of them who really made each day so much better. The location of the hotel and the rooms are so great, and you really get a unique sense of serenity throughout the entirety of the hotel and grounds.

As the title suggests, this must be one of the best hotels in the world. I only have positive things to say. From the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty. No request was too much. The staff are amazing. The beach is stunning. The food was outstanding. The gym was large and clean and have all the equipment we needed. The spa was world class with amazing treatments. It wasnt cheap, but getting something at this level never will be. We will absolutely be back!

5 stars all the way! We booked the restaurant and the ambiance and service was extremely good. The food was amazing, the best on the island. There was so much choice. ||||We would definitely recommend, such a beautiful place. We will be back for sure!

Always feels like home. We have visited about 8 times. The food is great and the hotel is very clean, as you would expect for the price. What brings us back are the staff, particularly the beach (Nakitia & shaughnessy), pool (Steve, Dwight, William) and bell / reception. If you need a driver, ask for Dennis Hinds.... a real gentlemen.

Absolutely stunning! We had a tour there- special thanks to Paul!! It was just amazing - especially the rooms and the services you are offered there. We also had a fantastic lunch with very special service by wonderful people. The food was delicious and on a high quality. We only had a few hours by these were just perfect!!!
