Didn't know what to expect when I booked "Tamarind Cove". I had previously stayed at the "Fairmont Royal Pavillon" in 2007 which was very good and thought maybe that "Tamarind Cove" wouldn't quite do it for me. Taking into account that I only paid a fraction of the price that I had paid at the "Fairmont" I was pleasantly surprised... more

Have returned today and had a great time. B & B so not ghastly meals as have had in the past at all-inclusives. Brilliant location. Sandy Lane a walk along the beach, Daphnes, The Cliff and Scarletts as well as fun surf bar and other restaurants which are cheaper in Holetown a five min and 50p bus trip away from... more

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the Tamarind Cove very much. The hotel is very beautiful and so is the beach. We had a room facing the ocean, and we could hear the waves and the peepers all night long. Slept like a baby. The room was nice and clean. It does have a mini fridge but no... more

Disapointed with the Virgin Flight and food we were wondering if we should have gone to Barbados but The Staff at The Tamarind Cove were so helpful, efficient and pleasant and with the welcoming drink we knew we had made a good choice of Hotel. The Hotel has three pools with old style Spanish/Caribbean style buildings. which gives a very... more

This is not the Med..! Barbados is generally a culture shock to those who have not been to the islands before.. Very hot, even when it rains and the humidity takes some time to get used too... We went when it was exxtremely quiet with only a dozen or so people staying at the hotel over the fortnight we stayed..... more

We stayed at the Tamarind Cove 7-17th Sept 09 and I just have to tell you of the great time that we had. We booked an ocean view suite and were delighted with our room. The bathroom perhaps needs a little attention, but this is of little consequence when you are just a matter of a few feet from the... more

My girlfriend and I spent 7 nights here and were lucky to have the great time that we did. To start, we got a great deal through Travelzoo for a standard room. Website says we had option of queen size beds, but we soon found that it's only two double beds pushed together unless you upgrade to a luxury suite.... more

Leaving the Tamarind Cove today, having spent 10 wonderful days there, we would love to come back again, nice hotel, nice people, great location and beautiful weather, what more do you want from a holiday. Everthing about the hotel was perfect and the fact that our standard room was less that a stones throw from the sea, we could lay... more

This was a very last minute booking and what a great choice! From our very warm welcome with complementary drink the service was good throughout - not the fastest but hey this is Barbados and we were on holiday. The watersports guys were great and nothing was too much trouble. They will take you out in a Hobie Cat 12... more
