The room was old and gross. Stains on the chaise, an insufferable noisy a/c (I had to read with headphones playing white noise in), the tub would just start running randomly, the toilet had issues flushing and the breakfast was the worst I’ve ever been offered. The first morning the egg lady acted like my husband didn’t even exist. Everything pre made was awful. We even had to play bellman on the way out since there was no one available. For the money we paid this place was so not worth it.

When we arrived our room was unclean and had a bad smell, also there was o toiletries and only a couple of towels. They eventually moved us to another room. The hotel itself is “tired” at best, and worse still we had been in Contact with the hotel before we arrived because we are keen tennis players. The tennis courts were almost unusable and in fact were unsafe, cracked and covered in slimy mud (I actually slipped and fell in one occasion). Because of this the manager then arranged for the courts to be cleaned - meaning we couldn’t use them for more than a day. For an expensive five star hotel the food and service was poor. On the day we checked out our flight was later in the day but there was nowhere to shower once you were out of the room. We then had to shower next to the swimming pool in the open air. In summary this hotel is not as advertised and is almost laughably overpriced. In fact it spoilt what was supposed to be a special holiday for my wife and I. Come on Fairmont you. An do much better than this.
We enjoyed our stay however felt the property, services etc. were on par with a 4 star resort, not a 5 star. Rooms were nice given they were just renovated however some areas still needed some TLC. This also goes for other areas like the pool and restaurants. Doors (warped), outside patio (dirty), washrooms (leaking showers). Housekeeping was sporadic, but got the job done to 75%, often towels, other things were not replenished consistently. Service at the beach was only good when one of particular staff member was there, otherwise nonexistent. The largest thing lacking was the quality of the food and drinks. Restaurants and bars lacked ambience, quite a few times i found objects in my food, plastic, hair, tin foil.... As a result, we left the property for most meals. The breakfast buffet was ok, nothing over the top and again reminded me of a 3 start hotel. Also missing was a spa facility. Service however was good, the people were great wherever we went in the resort, very friendly. This is what made it better. The gardens and the beach were very nice too I'm not sure we would return as I felt we paid a lot for what was offered.

Upon our arrival, we were welcomed by the most friendly and amazingly kind staff at the hotel. The resort was exactly as pictured on the website, but even more gorgeous in person . The grounds were extremely beautiful and well maintained. You can spend a lot of time admiring the abundant variety of plants, flowers and wildlife found on the resort. The room was spacious and so was the balcony. We love to check out the various types of food when we travel and we thoroughly enjoyed the food the restaurants had to offer. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay extra special. During our stay, we were surprised by two bottles of champagne. When we told the staff we didn’t drink alcohol, they sent delicious nonalcoholic fruit punch frozen drinks to our room instead. We highly recommend any of their frozen drinks! There are no rooms with a bad view on the resort as they all are oceanfront. The ocean is gorgeous and picture perfect. We loved spending time on the balcony when we were in the room. We watched the sunset almost every night while getting ready for dinner and lounged in the oversized chair in the mornings and nights. We were there mid October which was low season so the beach was quiet and not overcrowded. We are more beach people than pool people so we didn’t use the pool at all but it wasn’t crowded either and was very nice. You can’t walk the beach too far north and south without having to swim around some large rocks, but we found some public access paths not far away from the resort and had fun exploring other beaches. We were going to rent a car for the week, but then realized the driver side of the car was on the right, so we decided to pay the extra money for the transfer from and to the airport. Getting out of the airport when we arrived was very simple since we had someone guiding us and and were able to go through a VIP line. Taxis are pretty expensive and you can find yourself spending a lot of money on them. The local buses are very inexpensive, quick, safe and come often so we highly recommend venturing to the bus stop right across the street from the resort and spend your money on something besides taxis! The only advice I have for the resort is that they have regular coffee makers available for guests who don’t like Nespresso and that they also have flavored coffee creamer available. Our stay at the Fairmont was nothing short of perfect and everything a honeymoon should be. I can’t speak highly enough of the staff and how friendly, sweet and genuinely joyful they were. We spent a lot of time researching where to stay in Barbados and the Fairmont was one of our top choices. After walking multiple beaches, I’m certain that there isn’t another resort or beach as gorgeous as the Fairmont on the island. Our expectations were beyond exceeded in all aspects of our stay. We are very grateful for the overwhelming displays of kindness that were constantly extended to us. Kevin & Amanda R
