to get started.

We saved up for a family holiday to Barbados and I am so glad we stayed at the Crane. Firstly the staff are just amazing, they are all so friendly, caring and so welcoming. Huge thank you to everybody, especially Vivonne, Chaunte' (and the entire Guest Services team), Corey and especially to Rowana. If I get the chance to come back to Barbados I will definitely stay here again. The property is so clean and well-kept. The scenery and beach are stunning and the apartment we stayed in was just amazing with the most beautiful ocean view. The choice of restaurants is great with delicious good and the local stores give everything that is needed. There are also some great characters on the beach such as Big Terry who I could talk to all day about cricket. The whole vacation felt like paradise

Lovely place to stay with incredible views overlooking the cliffs and the water rushing in from below. Even though it is on the remote part of the island I would never stay anywhere else. The suite is wonderful having a full kitchen and washer and dryer plunge pool and the breathtaking view of the cliffs who could ask for more :-)

Great services, really nice facilities, a lot of restaurants to choose from, the view is amazing. They made us feel so pampered it was amazing. Also the breakfast was good and we didn't get bored with it, which usually happens when we stay in the same place for more than a week. The apartment was also very beautiful, jacuzzi and everything you need to feel like home.

“Great Location, Poor service Poor restaurants to far from everything else No night life.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group
- • Stayed 5 nights
The location of the property is very nice overlooking a cliff and its self contained. That being said the staff, although friendly, does not accommodate its guest fully. The service at the restaurants is very slow and the food, although tasty and presented well, is not to the caliber of other restaurants in near by locations (20-25 minutes away) Their are many good restaurants in Barbados (Champers, Primo-Pricey but very good) and the ones at The Crane do not compare to these other off premises fine restaurants) The only other complaint is the location. Although beautiful The Crane is far from everything and the nigh life ends at 10AM. Even though the bar plays music nightly till 10 once the music ends the wait staff rushes the checks to the table and expects everyone to leave. This is in spite of the bar being open till 11:45. Again the lack of management is something that should be addressed by the properties management. At times we went to restaurants on the property and they were out of basic things (Mimosas or other staple foods)

For a 5 star hotel, this hotel was poor all round. They charge for a bottle of water, no minibar in the room, no additional charger converted plugs available, the beach looked nothing like the photos, there was a bad smell and tons of sea weed everywhere, breakfast was average and they were charging for a one hour late checkout, without even trying to accommodate or be helpful. Poor experience.
If you need to get to the airport quick, then a very good location. Everything else is a bit of a distance.

“Good accommodation in a challenging context”
- • Leisure trip

- • Stayed 4 nights
The beach has choppy waters. It's fun for some activities but not if you want to swim. During our stay, it was full of seaweeds. The staff cleared them in the morning but the seaweed returned by mid-morning. The hotel has ongoing construction. Some rooms will be affected by the noise. The kitchenette was equipped minimally. Just two of knives forks and spoons, a couple of pots/pans; but no spatulas!
Very well kept property. It was sprawling with many swimming pools, several restaurants, as well as a 'Village' with shops and a convenience store. The staff were courteous and helpful, the wait staff perhaps more so than the front desk. (Hats off to Peter Felix!)

The staff in restaurants & reception appear not to want to be here anything is too much trouble . We arrived at 530 pm had to wait an hour for a room or else we would have to move rooms . Front door lock broke poor maintenance . Staff at beach bar could not offer coffee fizzy water or cola ! Only full buffet breakfast available on Christmas Day no other option . Staff running around 20 mins after official opening time . Concierge staff rude disinterested all of this for £650 per night without breakfast ! We overlooked building site . Much better options available on island
The beach itself is fantastic . The staff who maintain grounds & the cleaners very thorough & cheerful . Gym equipment great

“Great views, very relaxing.”

We found that the restaurants charged high prices. We had a problem with the L'Azure where we had booked a table for our wedding anniversary, even reconfirmed the day before, but when we arrived we were told there was no booking in our name. Eventually a table was reluctantly found for us, but the evening was spoilt. The next morning we asked at reception and they reconfirmed there was a booking in our name!! Beach towels were an issue, supposed to be one per person but we saw several people with more than one each. And loungers by the pools, especially the adult one, had towels placed on them before 8am, and no one in sight! One morning there was 10 taken! Towels in the rooms were very hit and miss, and one day we had none at all at 7pm. Equipment in the kitchen was very basic, and why no oven tray, ridiculous! Beach was lovely, but the seaweed is still an issue. There is a boon, but it is not stopping it. Shame! Would not say this place is a 5*, too many issues there. Some days it struggled to be a 4*
This was our 5th visit. We were on the 4th floor and had a great room with lovely views over the beach. it was away from the main pools area, and so quiet. Had house keeping and towels changed daily daily. Breakfast was an amazing buffet or a la carte. New this year is the beach bbq, which was great fun.
