Paynes Bay Hotel Guide - Sandy Lane Golf Course hotels in Paynes Bay, Barbados.

"Very boho , clean, bright and contemporary apartment. Exactly as described in the advert. Lovely (small) pool but not too much shade during the hot days. "

"Location in holetown was good. Beach view was awesome. Walk down staircase you are on sandy lane beach only seven steps. Other staircases you are on the water swimming. The entertainment was good and food was very good. Kayak were free and fun and sail boat ride was great. Rooms were clean and the mini split air conditioner worked incredibly well. The staff was excellent the drinking water in Barbados was excellent. "

"What a stay. Although my visit began with a couple of small hiccups…a floor that hadn’t been fully swept and a small puddle from a dripping AC…both issues were quickly resolved. After years of traveling and staying in countless hotels, I’ve learned that little imperfections happen everywhere. What truly set this place apart was the genuinely warm staff. Zoe at the front desk and Sharnisa in the restaurants were exceptional…warm, intuitive, and attentive. Ache and Michael carried that same spirit, and Davon went above and beyond to arrange an early-morning driver for me. The housekeeping team worked with such care that the rooms felt magically refreshed each day. The beach experience was beautifully maintained, with water activities readily available and encouraged. On my final day, I joined a fantastic Pilates class with Carri….an absolute gem. There is a calm, peaceful energy that seems to settle over this hotel and its guests. I returned to the bustle of NYC feeling restored and deeply grateful to the entire Waves family. Until next year."

"Excellent boutique hotel with super friendly staff who go out of their way to make guests feel welcome!"

"Everything was wonderful! Emma was a pleasure to communicate with and the provisions she provided were much appreciated. The kitchen had everything we needed. We chose to make our own breakfasts and lunches (after a trip to the nearby Massey grocery store) and enjoyed a combination of dinners out, getting takeout and barbecuing. The three bedrooms are very comfortable and it was nice having ensuite bathrooms for all of them. Having Tamika or Caroline come by every other day was helpful in keeping everything neat and clean. The location is amazing! We loved the patio, plunge pool and garden which are all very private and the perfect place to relax and enjoy dining al fresco. The sunsets were outstanding!! I do wish we could have seen the ocean from the patio/lounge area but the bushes and hedges block the view. I recommend having water shoes for swimming in the ocean. On the first morning I stepped on a sea urchin and that was painful! Tip: it is easier to swim out front when it is high tide. We enjoyed our week at Mahogany Pod and would not hesitate to stay there again! Thank you, Emma!"

"Great staff, sea view room had an excellent view. It could use upgrades to more modern furnishings. Could use more electric outlets "

"My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Waterside 101 very much. The apartment is spacious, clean and very well equipped. I has a lovely patio with direct pool and beach access and gorgeous sunset views. Very good snorkelling right in front of the property. We highly recommend."

"This property is ideally located on Barbados’ Platinum Coast, within easy reach of some of the island’s best beaches. The area felt very safe, and the local residents were friendly and welcoming.The apartment was spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped, with air-conditioned bedrooms, beautiful gardens, and everything we needed for a relaxing one-week stay.Loraine was an exceptional host—responsive, easy to communicate with, and very knowledgeable about the area. Her recommendations for restaurants and activities added real value to our trip.Overall, our stay at Birdsong delivered a wonderful Caribbean experience. I would gladly stay here again and highly recommend it to others."

"The apartment was perfect for what we needed. The host was great and very helpful. The convenience of the beach restaurant right down stairs was perfect and the fact that it is beachside is amazing. It really was a home away from home. Charles and Garvin were suitably impressed. "
