“Beware!! Beautiful Beach”
+Fourth time to Barbados, first time at Mango Bay had visited for a day when we stayed at their sister hotel Island Inn in 24, we really enjoyed Island Inn but thought we would give Mango Bay a try as it was a higher rating! On arrival we were placed in a condo at the Palm Springs Resort which adjoins the Mango Bay, we said as we were shown the room we were not happy and felt unsafe at the location of this “room” and we would like a room in the main hotel blocks to be told we are at full capacity and there are no other rooms, someone had obviously been given our room as ours had been booked for months, a move was offered for the Monday. The Saturday morning my grandson went to get his trainers to go to the gym and they were missing.Reported to reception, a manager, a security guard and head of housekeeping came over to search the room with my help to look for the trainers including looking in safe. Police were called but trainers were never recovered. We did get a room move into main hotel thankfully and managed to sleep more confidently and felt safer. Avoid a condo room if offered not secure. Shout out to Grafton, Maria, Dayle, Tionne Karon 👌👍 The beach is beautiful, unfortunate

“Top class”
+Where do I start? We were recommended to stay here. We weren’t disappointed from the moment we arrived until the day we left we were treated as returning guests, this was our first visit. Every member of staff from management down were brilliant. We booked a sea view room, we were in room 211 it doesn’t get better. The only downside was as an older couple the sea shelf made it difficult to leave the ocean. We made up by using the pool. We never once had a problem getting a beach or pool bed. Yes the hotel is old but clean, air con top class and a hot water shower. Book your lunch and dinner at breakfast and remember gents you need a collar on your shirt but tailored shorts are acceptable. The food is mostly great I’m a fussy one but always found something acceptable. This hotel was so good we’ve booked again for October and can’t wait. Entertainment was good mostly but you are sitting on a beach front hotel what more do you want. We went on a boat trip organised by a guy on the beach again top class. I did a scuba lesson in the pool, I’m hooked and the diving staff were great, give it a go. If I marked this hotel out of 10 it would run to 9.8. If you want to stay in Barbados give M

“Mostly good”
+We stayed here for one week. The hotel itself is nice enough. The room was clean however quite dated. Lots of brown decor. The entertainment could be improved such as more interactive guest activities. Some of the staff were quite miserable looking. One person in particular constantly looked annoyed, and there was no positive interaction. I took my son down for breakfast 30 mins before it stopped and she was clearly annoyed about this. I asked for tea, and was given coffee so I politely mentioned this. She said abruptly “you asked for coffee” (I don’t like coffee so why would I ask for it) I wasn’t going to argue over it. That made me feel really uncomfortable having breakfast, so i promptly left. MOST of the staff were nice. I have to give a shout out to Maria who was always lovely and so thoughtful. Also a guy called Xavier. Lovely guy! Our son has autism and most of the staff were very good with him. Bar staff weren’t very sociable and appeared miserable most of the time. The beach was amazing however the activities weren’t well advertised. We enjoyed the food.

““Vacation” that made you want to go back home”
+The major problem of this hotel is the rudeness of the staff. We were told rude things, ignored, cut off from talking, had eyes rolled at us, etc. Nobody offers to help around this place. Most of the workers should not be in the service industry!! Food selection and taste was absolutely horrible. One night we did not eat anything offered on the menu and waitress had a major attitude problem because we asked if we could see the kids menu or eat something else. The hotel is also very rundown. The outside and inside of the rooms need major work. The air condition leaked all over the floor and we had to put towels down. BUT we only could get two towels a day because they do not have enough towel to accommodate guests. We asked for more and were told they were “drying”. The beach is pretty, but you have to wake up early to reserve chairs. They also do not have enough chairs to accommodate their guest. Was told at 9 o’clock in the morning that we came too late to the beach and could sit by the pool. Also at the beach, they had people selling things which is normal for an island, but these sellers would were incredibly rude when we said we did not want to buy anything. One guy said we wer

“Genuine review”
+Lovely hotel, but sadly the food has gone down majorly. Too many poor standard buffets. Also, by bringing in guests from Island Inn and The Sands because of the problems at both of these hotels!!, impacted our stay with not enough food for lunch on many occasions. We were due to return in September but have now transferred our booking to another hotel on the West Coast. Such a shame because this hotel used to be wonderful but by reducing the quality of the food will reduce the returning guests eventually.

“Our stay was disappointing due to outdated facilities, poor food quality, and lack of evening entertainment.”
+Location
−Unfortunately, our stay was very disappointing. The hotel is extremely outdated and in desperate need of renovations. The rooms and common areas felt worn and did not reflect what we expected. The food was another major letdown. The quality was poor, with very limited variety and very few appetizing options throughout our stay. We often struggled to find meals we actually enjoyed. The evenings were also underwhelming. There was little to no nighttime entertainment, which made the resort feel quiet and lacking in atmosphere once the sun went down. Overall, the experience did not meet our expectations, and I would not choose to stay here again unless significant improvements are made.

“Amazing management team.”
+This is a nice hotel. The service from the management and restaurant and chefs is very much four star maybe more. The housekeeping and standard rooms are 3 star at most. The location and size of the hotel are lovely. Couldn’t fault it. The beach is amazing and the hotel is such a lovely size. Nothing was too much trouble for the management team. Evey question answered and they could not have been better. The standard rooms are the cheapest and are huge with great AC but they are tired and the bathrooms are very run down. The housekeeping was also hit and miss with many days missing towels and floor not cleaned of sand. But they have over rooms. So they are much better The restaurant is lovely. Both inside and outside seating the it’s all served at a lovely pace. The servers are sweet and funny but not silver service. They will accommodate your requests which is nice and the food was very very high standard. Three choices a day for lunch and dinner. The bar staff work hard. Some are a little less chirpy than others but they will make any drink you ask. The water sports team don’t stop working. From putting out subbed when the hoggers have taken the. All to teaching you to water ski

“Lovely resort”
+Mango Bay is a lovely small resort. All of the staff were friendly and accommodating. Pool and beach area is beautiful. One night à la carte service was delayed but staff appropriately apologetic and did everything they could to accommodate guests.
