“A wonderful time at The Colony Club”

Mar 29, 2026Jess W

We had a beautiful stay at The Colony Club. Having moved hotels after our previously booked Marriott hotel was not going to be renovated in time - we were able to be moved over to Colony Club. We were sceptical going to a newly renovated hotel that we hadn’t stayed at previously but they exceeded our expectations. Firstly the hotel rooms are stunning and we had two queen beds which were made everyday and bathroom was stocked and very clean. The outside garden area was lovely too. The ladies at turn down were so lovely aswell. The food throughout our stay was amazing especially the lunch options where there was so much choice between both the all day menu and the lunch menu that changed everyday. We also tried out the Sunday buffet lunch menu which was fab - so much choice. We loved the breakfast with the omelettes available. Although the breakfast seems small - it’s actually perfect for the amount you need. Also, one day we missed the end time of the lunch service when we wanted to order desserts and both our lovely waitress and the chef on the kitchen made two desserts especially even though we were too late which was so lovely. We enjoyed both the pool and beach areas. The sun beds around pool are super comfy - one note to improve would be to take the covers off everyday as they did get a lot of marks on them from the birds and the trees above - it would just make them feel more high end as the striped detail is a nice touch. They always stacked the beach sunbeds each day so would make sense to put the pool bed covers away too I would hope. We didn’t make use of the spa but it’s a shame this isn’t marketed very well and is in a slightly odd location which is the car park and staff area at the back of the hotel. If you are a frequent spa visitor, you would hope for it to be better marketed to guests and luxurious for the price of treatments and the property itself. Alongside this, the tennis and padel courts are nearby which are done really nicely, we really liked them - however they could provide better padel rackets as they were the right ones and gave tennis balls instead of padel balls. Just a tip to improve for fitness goers! We did the 8-9am classes with Jamal every morning which was so fun - mixture of dancercise, fitness, Pilates and water aerobics etc! A fab way to start the morning before breakfast. Some standout staff were as follows: Maradona at the pool bar! He was the loveliest and most attentive staff member and a real asset to The Colony Club. He made us laugh and always delivered drinks with a smile. We hope to see him again if we return. Tito at the pool bar & restaurant! We actually met Tito at The Tamarind hotel which we have stayed before and he remembered us. He is so lovely and chatty, providing fabulous service and drinks. Rafiq at the Hotel Reception! Most days we went to reception regarding dinner reservations or general enquiries and he was just fab! Even when we asked him to call about five different restaurants in a panic, he was so calm and helpful. Sydney at the pool bar! Providing delicious cocktails at happy hour and a smile always. Overall a wonderful stay at The Colony Club. If there was any other improvements to add - I would say that the fitness centre is quite small and was always quite busy so not easy to get in. They should advertise both the spa and classes better to get more people to sign up.

“A wonderful stay surpassing our expectations”

Mar 29, 2026Joanie2748

Having previously stayed at the Tamarind some 10 years’ ago this was our first trip to the Colony Club and it surpassed our expectations in every way. We travelled as two families with adult children. What we loved… excellent location, not requiring much travel to get to restaurants, towns etc; beautiful room and maintained daily to v high standards; all staff were excellent and incredibly attentive (this included front of house, cleaners, chefs, waiting staff, management- everyone!); water-sports facilities and staff also excellent. Loved the morning fitness activities which were different every day. The teacher was great as was the dance class guy, who we loved! Great fun. Think you could publicise this more as I’m sure there would be more people interested in the classes. That said we loved the small classes! Food was also exceptional- breakfast, lunch and dinner. The small negatives…. Lack of usable equipment for padel, tennis etc. We would have enjoyed using this more but there wasn’t the equipment to use. No padel balls, hence racquets were broken from using tennis balls; tennis racquets very old and not very usable. Spa was small and out of the way, and you couldn’t just go in. I found that a bit disappointing as I would have liked to go in to browse, talked to staff and then probably booked a treatment or two. All in all a wonderful stay and too many stand out members of staff to personally mention. Thank you to everyone!

“Everything a 5-Star Hotel Should Be”

Mar 24, 2026almondc

We stayed at the Colony Club for 5 nights as the second half of a split stay, having come directly from the O2 Beach Club. After a disappointing first half, the Colony Club completely restored our faith in the holiday — and in Barbados itself. CHECK-IN Warm, efficient and welcoming. Welcome drinks on arrival and staff who actually made you feel like guests rather than an inconvenience. What a difference. ROOMS We stayed in a 1-bedroom sea view suite which was fantastic — recently refurbished, beautifully appointed, and in a great spot right by the pool and beach. Exactly what you'd hope for. FOOD Excellent throughout, and genuinely varied. The Sunday buffet was a highlight — high quality, plentiful, and clearly well regarded locally given the number of Bajans who come specifically for it as a day out. That speaks volumes. The dinner on the sunset deck is a lovely touch — great service, beautiful setting, and a real sense of occasion without being stuffy. SERVICE The standout. Every single member of staff said hello when they passed you. They learned our names quickly and used them. When something wasn't quite right on our first evening (slow dinner service), a member of staff proactively came to apologise the following morning unprompted. That's the mark of a well-run hotel. Particularly impressive was the attitude towards our 2-year-old. Staff were genuinely warm and helpful with him throughout — happy to provide food outside of normal service hours without any fuss, and a lovely touch was the concierge offering him fish food to feed the fish in the lobby fountain, which he absolutely loved and talked about for days. CONCIERGE Really helpful and knowledgeable. Booked a number of excursions for us including a food tour and glass bottom boat trip, all smoothly arranged. Nothing was too much trouble. LOCATION Excellent. Easy walk into Holetown for restaurants, bars and the Limegrove shopping centre. You can also walk along the beach in either direction. Felt connected to the island rather than isolated. THE ONE DOWNSIDE — MIDGES Worth flagging honestly — there are a lot of midges, particularly in the evenings. The hotel acknowledged this and said they would be misting the grounds to help, but it was enough to affect outdoor comfort at times. Bring a good insect repellent and you'll be fine, but don't say you weren't warned. OVERALL The Colony Club is listed as 4 stars, one below the O2 we had just come from. It wasn't close. The service, food, attitude towards families and general attention to detail put it in a completely different league. We left genuinely sad to go and would return without hesitation. Highly recommended — just pack the bug spray.
