Fairmont Royal Pavilion - Holetown

The hotel is on the beach which I believe there is not many hotels that are situated right on the beach in Barbados. The staff are ALL so friendly, welcoming and do their very best to keep you happy. They were so good to my son ( who is 1 and a half). They offered to prepare special meals for him. Heat up his meals and provide extra entertainment to keep him occupied. They even created a bumper for to cover the corners of our side night table. In room dining - great, staff come with a crisp white table cloth, fresh flowers, basket of warm bread and of course served with a lovely smile....we loved it! All the staff are great, I can't mention their specific names because there are so many to mention and I am afraid I may upset someone should I leave their name out. We had a great time and my son had an even better time!!!!!

We had a wonderful ground floor Junior Suite which was both spacious and very comfortable. For us it was a definite plus to have such easy access to the sea, just 10 metres away. Staff at the hotel were all tremendous. Very friendly and helpful at all times. Some reviews have stated the hotel is slightly tired in appearance, this might apply to some of the paint work here and there, on the whole though it was fabulous. It had an extremely relaxed feel to it compared with other hotels nearby which we visited out of curiosity. A car is essential for getting to anywhere easily, of course there are the local buses, but for us it was too humid to be standing at bus stops.

Stayed one night while moving from one home to another. Will be back for my last 4 days on the island before I leave. Rate from Hotels.com was great and used my free nights to stay for almost nothing at this truly 5 star resort. Great beach and facilities

What a fantastic stay! After a long, cold New England winter, a beautiful stay in Barbados was just what the doctor ordered. We couldn't have picked a better place - the facilities were beautiful and the staff was both lovely and helpful. Our only disappointment was the dinner buffet at the hotel restaurant. As the hotel was quiet the week we were there, there were more empty tables than not. Was hoping for something a little more fun and festive for the price. But all in all - an AMAZING stay!

Had a wonderful week at FRP! Room opened directly on to beach which was great and staff were lovely - extremely friendly and helpful. Added bonus was that hotel only a 2 minute walk along beach to Lone Star restaurant which is one of the best on the island!! Would definitely return. Only drawback - hotel does not have its own spa.
