this place is good all around, the only thing is the restaurant that is over priced and not the best of quality. I told them about our dissapointment but nothing was done about it, so we ate out at different places that were nearby with very good results, but I wouldnt hesitate to stay there again.

Pleased with our stay in October of 2011. Beach was secluded and beautiful. Overall was very relaxing, despite the locals who interrupted you while reading a book or sleeping to try and sell you something. Evening entertainment was enjoyable and surprisingly talented. Staff was overly friendly and went the extra mile to ensure satisfaction. The property was a bit dated and the beds were very uncomfortable. The room was tidied up daily, but sand and hair was still left on the tile floors. Our shower was also clogged one morning, but the staff sent someone right away to fix it. However, after the drain had been blown out, we had to then call the front desk to have someone clean the bathroom (it was pretty gross). Food was ok, but apparently they had just hired a new restaurant manager so that should be improving.

Well were to start? First timers to Barbados so had to use Tripadvisor as our reccomendation, and you were all so right! This hotel is fantastic and it is exactly as it looks on the website.
Coming from the hospitality industry, I am somewhat of a 'picker' but I can not find anything negative to say about this hotel.
From the cleanliness of the resort to the friendly staff, the fabulous guest rooms, great amenities, excellent resturants and a beach to die for, it was all perfect.
The location is just right, with the constant cooling breeze and the fun waves. We didnt need the A/C at all just kept the patio doors open and slept like babies listening to the ocean waves.
The island is safe, the people are so nice and friendly, we travelled everywhere by bus, it was so easy, the Reggae buses are always around and $1 US to travel anywhere.
Highlight of the trip was a cruise on the Tiami Cattamaran swimming with Sea Turtles, a remarkable experience.
This was our first of many more trips to Barbados and to the Bougainvillea, I would totally reccomend this resort to couples or families, it is set up for both.
Thank you for an amazing experience and to your wonderful staff.

Barbados is a wonderful island and the Bougainvillea Resort is a beautiful place to stay. The resort staff are delightful, from the bellman to the bartender...everyone is friendly. The units are clean, spacious and all have gorgeous views of the beach. The constant breeze, wonderful wave action on Maxwell Beach and great pools, make it an easy place to rest, relax and play. The resort has plenty of amenities, easy access to the fine dining in the St. Lawrence Gap, to Oistins for the Friday night fish fry and the shopping in Bridgetown. It's only a short cab ride to the west coast beaches and Holetown. Barbados is a friendly island with lots of great scenery and activities to entertain all ages and tastes. We would return again and again to the Bougainvillea...already been twice and would recommend it to anyone without hesitation.
