Goodland Holidays from £1,184

We loved the property. We have been to Barbados before and therefore understood the geography of where the East Resort is located. We stayed in a one bedroom villa. I’m not sure that the listing is comprehensive enough. The villa is beautiful, spacious, with lots of amenities in the room. The kitchen has a microwave, washing machine, tumble dryer, hot plate and fridge freezer. They leave you sugar, tea, coffee, milk, washing up liquid. The bathroom is beautiful. Shower no bath. Double sinks, separate toilet. Four poster bed. Outside is a barbecue, they supply you with briquettes. Table with comfy chairs on the patio also armchairs and two loungers. They supply towels for the bathroom and Beach. My recommendation would be to get breakfast included. We booked through hotels.com. And had this included. We ordered the night before and it was delivered either at 8:30 or 10 am timings to suit you. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. Staff were lovely. There are some things you need to be aware about that we couldn’t find details on before we left and trying to make contact with the hotel was difficult as they did not respond to emails. East is remote. You do need a car. The nearest supermarket is half an hour away. Driving in Barbados is not easy, especially at night time. The roads are poor. There are no sidewalks so you often come across people walking on the road unexpectedly. However, in situ we had no complaints about the staff, they were helpful and efficient.

Most of the staff were amazing, especially Kenneth. Many good things about this hotel but would not stay again as the pool and the whole outside area is shut down at 6 pm. Nowhere to have a relax or meet up for a nightcap outside of your room. Also the wire fencing around the whole complex on top of being ugly means if you want to go down to the beach after 6 pm you have to use the trail outside of our complex. It could be so much better with some changes.

The hotel staff were very professional, attentive and FUN!!! The property was clean. There was no trash on the ground or overflowing trash cans. Our rooms were clean. However, our air conditioner did not keep the room cold it was extremely hot when we went and wanted to come back to a cold room.
