Wanstead Vacations from $916

Staff was amazing, BUT just on the next day of my stay ( Out of 7 nights), the construction workers arrived and occupied most of the resort. I booked a stay at a quiet resort and carefully planned it, as it was over a week. Was looking for a peaceful retreat as per their description. It was a complete opposite- the male guest ( construction workers) were very loud, until late hours, crazy music until late and also early morning from 5am, as they were getting ready to work. Occupied the swimming pool area until late hours , later than 1am on most of days, drinking from glass bottles and smoking, very loud music, shouting and all fun things for them. I suppose they were doing what they were told they allowed . Just not great for me- very intimidating, no rest at all, tired and disappointed big time! I spent all the money and to travel thete to have this awful experience. Expedia was amazing, helped me to recover some money. But manager at resort told me that the construction workers can stay late at the pool and do what they want as they getting to work early and it’s decided at higher management level. I was able to change my room after mad night - mad party next to my apartment, but I was given no choice and they downgraded my room with no sorry or that they would refund or compensate me. I had to make up my mind at the time - I had no voice and moved at late hours. No comments to the construction workers to stop the madness. Disappointed is understatement,

Smaller property, easy to access everything. Food and food options below par.

We understood that it was not peak vacation time in Barbados, but the resort was empty. The resort did not conduct any activities they had listed for the pool or the beach. No music being played - very low key. Restaurant choices very limited and one night there was even same menu two nights in a row. Very limited buffets. LOVED the staff at the spa! Definitely visit. The room was beautiful - very spacious and the view was wonderful.
