“7.5/10 overall experience”

decent hotel overall, food ok, quite expensive. ok afternoon tea. nice beach but amenities a bit old. service ok once u know 1 of the guys. staff are generally helpful ly helpful when you can get hold of them. definitely not a 5 star hotel though overall, and quite pricey (to be fair its my first time in BarBados so I dont know what the comps are)

Dining
SurfSide Bar has the best food in Barbados for casual food The Cliff is fantastic for high end stuff, but ridculously priced (premium to Nobu in London)

“Overrated!!!!!!”

This was our first vacation to Barbados. We were told that The Fairmont was, bar none, one of the premier hotels on the island. We decided to go this route, rather than an all-inclusive resort, to allow us the flexibility to explore different dining arenas and really take in the island. Upon arrival, we were unimpressed with the resort. It had an older feel and the staff were certainly not overly friendly. The oceanview from our room was definitely the highlight of this hotel. The prices were ABSURD!!! I wish someone had informed us that BREAKFAST runs $75 AMERICAN DOLLARS per day!!! So you can expect a $300-$500 dinner bill per evening, to include a bottle of wine. So, buyers beware! You will break the bank unless you have an ENDLESS cash flow. Lastly, the off-season is VERY QUIET. The hotel was at less than half capacity, therefore whether we dined at the hotel restaurant or one of the many restaurants on the island, we were maybe one of three other diners. It is a beautiful island with gorgeous beaches, but I would rethink an all-inclusive on the Southern part of the island where it is busier.

Traveller's tip
The Cliff was an exceptional dining experience---Again, a $500 evening...but incredible food, service and ambiance.
