The staff were all incredibly friendly and accommodating during our stay. Our room was cleaned each day, with a nightly turndown service, which was a nice touch.

People were friendly and helpful. The beach was lovely and it was fun to find sea glass there.

very busy road that Tamarind is located on. Water is turbid and sand is only okay. No real fishing nearby and surfing is all south or east. 2nd time to Barbados and this was not as nice as first.

4/5 - Good

Nice beach although rocky in places. Good restaurants nearby. Very easy access to Lime Grove. High tourist area, but away from late night bars.
