    Ok. A mixed review. I’m here now. Positive: jerk chicken is lovely. Beds comfortable. Always food to be found. Lucy’s lounge had a fridge for sandwiches and fruit.Bar staff - Dwayne is an exceptional mixologist. Negatives. Our initial room stank of sewage. Eventually we were moved. But housekeepers dd not tell reception that we had a room. Then over the next few days no towels. No toilet roll. Having to constantly go to reception to get these basics met. The castle view restaurant: our first visit was excellent. However tonight on the 26th July was a very different experience. The supervisor Brandon was rude and aggressive and did not behave to a standard we would expect. His whole demeanour was overbearing, obstinate and shocking. It was over the most basic question. We had previously been given Bombay Sapphire gin for free . Then tonight we were informed that we had to pay for it (not on the paid menu). He became very agitated and his behaviour was concerning. Tiara was our server and she was very apologetic over our experience tonight. Brandon the supervisor needs some customer service training in my opinion. I don’t know what the standards are in Barbados but he was outside and he passed through the kitchen without washing his hands and started serving food. (Husband works in food and he was shocked at this- we had a direct view)I’ve never experienced anything like this. The staff are generally great here- hence my review from a shocked patron. Read less

    Writing this review on our last day of our stay at Wyndham Sam Lord’s Castle and wanted to share an honest review of our experience. Cleanliness: 3/5 The resort is moderately clean. While common areas were generally maintained, there was definitely room for improvement in terms of overall upkeep and attention to detail, especially in guest rooms and public facilities. Food: 2/5 This was one of the more disappointing aspects of our stay. The buffet had limited variety and leaned heavily toward South Asian cuisine almost every day, which may not appeal to all guests. There’s only one snack bar available for quick bites, and even that wasn’t consistently stocked with options. Definitely not what you’d expect from an all-inclusive in terms of variety or quality. Activities: 1/5 Very little to do during the day, especially for families with kids. There were no daytime or children-specific activities, and most of the scheduled entertainment didn’t start until after 10 PM — far too late for families or those wanting a more balanced day of relaxation and fun. Hospitality: 4/5 On a more positive note, the staff were generally friendly and welcoming. We didn’t encounter any rudeness during our stay, and most team members were courteous and helpful. This was one of the few highlights of our experience. Overall Impression: Despite its branding and castle-themed allure, this resort doesn’t live up to 5-star expectations. Between the lackluster food, limited activities, and average cleanliness, we’d rate this as more of a 3-star property. It has potential, but it currently falls short in several key areas for an all-inclusive experience. Read less

    The reservations clerk exhibits a lack of courtesy and manners. I am uncertain if her response was influenced by the fact that we are locals. The point of service initiates at the reservations stage. I have never encountered such discourteous service at The Crane Resort. It is appalling!
