Disadvantages to this hotel: 1. location to shops and other activities 2. hotel restaurant was not good 3. rough surf, but lovely beach 4. no activities.....rolls up the carpet at dark I would definitely stay on the west coast next time! One of our highlights was the : shasacatamarancruises.com It was a small group with a wonderful and hospitable captain. It could not have been better!

Barbados was an amazing place to visit. Bougainvillea was a great place to stay with excellent views, roomy rooms, a gorgeous beach and the pool bar was fabulous. I do not have any complaints about the hotel or Barbados in general. This is the best of all the travels I have had to the Caribbean. The people of this island are so nice and helpful without trying to rip you off. It was the best!!! I read a lot of negative reviews for the restaurant, but I thought the monday night BBQ was good and breakfast was wonderful every morning especially with the views provided.
Bougainvillea...just OK.
Very lovely beach with moderate waves for swimming. The rooms are comfortable and well equipped. Staff is all helpful and friendly. Food is too expensive. Lanterns is OK, but Water's Edge is out of sight. Breakfast buffet is great. Eat at The Gap for dinner.
This place was in a nice location, the service that the hotel provided was excellent. This is a good place to relax and see beautiful sights. The people are very nice and courteous, where they make you feel very much at home. The only complaint is getting used to the bajan food, any red meats all taste the same. I do have to say the staff at this Resort are very nice (especially this handler named Kim very cool people) We met people from all over. If you feel hesitant to drive (like I did) getting around is'nt a problem (taxis are available everywhere). Take time to visit St. Lawrence Gap it has a very nice sunset and different kinds of resturants for different pallets. I plan on visiting again in the near future. I am sure you will feel the same once you get to visit. ( Much salutations to my friends at the pool bar...X ..and Y..much love)
My husband and I had a great time in Barbados. The hotel, the grounds, pool and beach were beautiful!! The staff was wonderful (what's up Kim) and helpful if you had any questions. A++++ We felt safe the entire time we were there. Can't wait to come back!!
Just got back from the Bougainvillea. It's not in a great location and getting around was difficult during rush hour. The hotel was OK. Just OK, though the staff was very friendly and helpful. This is not a high end property. Better for budget travellers and families. Not what I expected. If you're looking for a more upscale facility, try the West Coast. I know I will next time.
