Stayed for a week all inclusive. This was our fifth visit to Barbados and our first in Holetown. The hotel is nicely located on the beach and has some lovely friendly and professional staff which are a credit to the hotel. Check in was pleasant and efficient and we were escorted to our superior pool room located on the second floor
The room was lovely, spacious, clean, modern and light with a great bathroom. Bed was large and comfortable, cleaning daily was first class with adequate towels and toiletries provided. We had a large balcony which overlooked the pool and a view to the sea. Unfortunately you also have a rather ugly view of the roof of the bar and restaurant which houses a large noisy air conditioning unit.
Pool area was lovely, a pleasant pool with nice comfortable beds and shaded areas to relax. The beach is lovely but we found it far too packed. The local beach traders did not bother us at all. We always managed to find a sunbed as the lads on the beach would bring one for you when most were reserved with towels from early morning.
Food was served at your table apart from a few nights when it was buffet style. Breakfast was ok but a little limited if you prefer continental style. Lunch was very good every day, with a great range of lovely dishes and lighter choices, fish was very good. We felt dinner was a little limited for choice and we have had better. Pleasant restaurant with outside terraces overlooking the beach and nice service by the lovely staff. We did not like the fact that you had to book for lunch and dinner times early in the morning and we found we could not eat at our preferred times on several occasions. Drinks were excellent, lots of cocktails which were delicious and a good range of drinks, all served by wonderful staff and you have waiter service on the beach which was excellent. The bar area is lovely but very small and sometimes difficult to get a seat.
We took advantage of the catamaran trip which was fantastic and the highlight of our stay, well organised and the staff were lovely. A lot of guests complained about noise all night which kept them up, these were the standard rooms at the front of the hotel. We did hear noise of a night but once our patio door was closed we had wonderful nights sleep. Evening entertainment was very good and we enjoyed the live music each night. However if you have rain (as we did each night) the entertainment is outside and most guests disappeared as there is limited cover. Such a shame as the hotel do provide good nightly entertainment.
Overall we had a lovely stay at the Mango Bay and met some lovely people. The staff our wonderful, it is well kept and very clean, loved our room and the views on the beach.

We spent our honeymoon at Mango Bay and from the moment we got there we were welcomed with open arms. We were greeted at the front desk by the amazing Cara, who saw us through our check in process with a smile and friendly face and informed us that we had received a complimentary room upgrade for our honeymoon. We were taken up to a beautiful ocean view room which the cleaning staff had taken the time to prepare with congratulations decorations and balloons, instantly making us feel special and welcome. On our first night we were treated to a decorated table at dinner, complete with a chilled bottle of fizz and a ice bucket, again all complimentary.
Throughout our stay we received nothing but the finest service from all staff at the hotel. Everyone, from the cleaners and waiting staff to the management team took the time to say hello to us and ask us how we were finding our stay. As everyone was so amazing it would take too long to thank everyone, but there are a few people who went even further (if that is even possible!). Omar, Kyle and Addio at the bar had us laughing everyday and took the utmost care with every drink order, no matter how big or small. They were very patient with us and even came up with new concoctions to suit our needs. They were also very personable and took the time to get to know us - on one night in particular we had barely stepped foot down stairs and before we even got to the bar Omar had some drinks ready for us. The lovely Onesha spent her days running from the beach to the bar taking guests’ orders and then bringing them out, always with a smile and a hello, and made it her mission to ensure guests were as comfortable as possible. The restaurant at times could sometimes become slightly busy - which is completely understandable- but the Maitre’D Pedro ensured that everything ran as smoothly as it could be, again with a smile and an amazing sense of humour. If any guests had special requests for their dinner, Pedro ensured that these were followed as much as possible.
Every morning as we were eating breakfast one of the senior hotel staff, Ronald, went round every table asking them about their day, giving suggestions and tips to make their day the best it could be, and also taking on board any feedback from guests in order to tailor to guests’ needs. He was so attentive to us and a genuinely lovely man who made us feel so welcome.
In terms of food, drink, hotel facilities and location these were all amazing. The beachside location of the hotel means water sports are available literally on your doorstep. Many of these are complimentary through the hotel but even the sports that are not, such as jet skiing, can be sourced fairly easily with the lovely local sports organisers.
All in all, we had the perfect honeymoon. It was as if every member of staff knew it was our honeymoon and took it upon themselves to make it amazing. We will absolutely stay here again and cannot recommend it enough.

One week stay at the end of November 2019. The hotel is a nice boutique style hotel with a great location on the beach. The room was large and spacious, and generally well kept & clean. When it comes to dining there is one restaurant on site which either operates as a buffet or a la cart style on both lunch and dinner. For breakfast, there is a typical selection as with most other all inclusive resorts. For lunch and dinner, you have to book a table in advacnce at breakfast, and it will be either a buffet option or a la cart menu. I travelled with a mix of veg/non-veg guests. The buffet option was generally limited for a vegetarian, but the restaurant staff and Head Chef came to speak to us and made speacial meals for the vegetarians, which was great! The food at the restaurant was generally good, and my only suggestion would be a little more variety when it comes to the buffet. The waiting staff at the restaurant and bar were very friendly and helped to create a great atmosphere. The pool area is quite small, and honestly the weather and proximity of the beach meant we spent all day there instead. There are people that come to sell you items, jet ski rides etc, but if this is not for you then they respect when you say no and do not bother you much. The hotel offered a complimentary boat ride to see a ship wreck and complimentary catamaran ride with the option of swimming with turtles! Both trips are great and a highlight of my trip was snorkelling with the turtles! The hotel also offers complimentary water sports and I enjoyed a few water skiing lessons! Outside of the hotel there is designer mall across the road, a supermarket and gift shops are short walk away. The local bus stop is just outside the supermarket and the town centre is short ride away. The evening entertainment is music based and is usually on for a couple of hours after dinner. Sadly I left on Independence Day, and missed some great celebrations at the hotel. The staff at reception are friendly and helped us with any issues we had. Although before we arrived, we had specifically arranged for transfers with the hotel and their driver did not turn up at the airport. We managed to call the hotel from the airport and they could not get hold of the driver and advised us to make our own way to the hotel. They arranged for our return transfer to the airport and assured us there would be no issues this time round, and there wasn’t. All in all I think this a good hotel, with a great location on the beach.

Negatives: There are mosaic tiles missing from the swimming pool floor. Sun beds are mainly tired looking (and as other reviews have stated, reserved early in the morning by hotel guests). The cocktails taste nothing like you'd expect or want them to. Very hit and miss food. You could re-sole your shoes with the steaks! Having to book lunch and dinner times at breakfast. Standard rooms are adjacent to noisy 1st and 2nd Street where the locals gather every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings. Don't expect any sleep during this period of time if you're unfortunate enough to have booked a standard room. N.B TUI doesn't advertise standard rooms as being located in a noisy location. So noisy in fact, that on at least four nights, you can't do what you pay for a bedroom for - sleep. The bedroom entrance door view in the standard room block is unpleasant (image attached). The glass bottom boat trip provided by the hotel isn't, in my opinion worth going on.
Positives: The hotel's in Barbados! Most of the staff are wonderful - I hope the owner looks after them as they are really trying hard to make the guest experience as good as it can be under somewhat difficult circumstances. The other hotel guests were, during our stay, wonderful. The water sports are good. The catamaran trip is brilliant.
Will we be going back to Mango Bay? That's very easy to answer; definitely not.

This is by far the worst hotel I have stayed in. No welcome drink on arrival. The room wasn’t ready when we arrived at around 4pm so we were left in the bar area for around 30 minutes. We were shown to our shabby sorry state of a room with no water or refreshments in the fridge which was balanced on top of a table. The wardrobe doors didn’t open properly as the pelmet from the patio doors blocked them opening. The patio door glass was painted white so you couldn’t see out of it. The air conditioning didn’t work and for our first two nights we couldn’t sleep because it was so hot. We asked to be moved and was initially told there were no rooms available later the same day we were advised they did have a “de lux” room available the next day which we gladly took. It was far superior to the “faulty towers” block we were initially allocated. The food is atrocious and cheap with no thought involved and no variety. Serving chicken drumsticks and spaghetti bolognese every other night was not what I had expected. The bar runs out of all spirits nightly buts that’s okay because they offer Prosecco at $80 dollars a bottle. Really this is supposed to be an all inc resort. Customer service is non existent. Your complaints do not matter to them. They have our money and provide an absolutely shocking service I could go on and on!! How TUI/First Choice are still selling this hotel is beyond belief. I have travelled to many many places and hope I never experience a hotel like this again. We have spoken to many guests who are equally unhappy. I would class this hotel as a 1 star. No one listens to you, no one cares never thought I would say this but I am looking forward to going home.

We just got back from Mango Bay Barbados yesterday. Stayed there for one week Thursday to Thursday.
First day we got there we checked in no water or drink was offered. We were starving and we had there all day Bbq menu with burger and hot dog or grilled fish (no taste) and some of the tea time snacks that was available from 2-5pm. The burger is pretty good
Some Of the drinks at the bar were either missing some ingredients or they didn’t the flavour. You basically eat outside for breakfast lunch and dinner. We finally requested to eat inside so we wouldn’t be eaten alive by mosquitoes at dinner Time. You also must make reservation for lunch and dinner everyday. Breakfast is the same everyday Beans Scrambled Eggs Pancakes or French toast Sometimes hash brown Chicken sausages Omelette station which closes early
Watch out for bird poop on all the chairs and benches My husband sat on the chair and got a nice surprise on his back
The rooms ok.. bath water wouldn’t Go down fast in the tub and the bath tub needed to be updated at the porcelain seems to be wearing down. You have to wear a mask even when your outside or getting a drink at the bar or walking to the beach that sucked too.
The gym is just a room with broken machine one treadmill and some Weights.
On our second Last day we noticed that the sheets were dirty and asked if the sheets were cleaned everyday and they were not. If you want the sheets changed everyday you must request this for towels and bed sheets. .

Upon arrival it appeared strange to sign a liability waiver re; Health and Safety re; watersports and the beach area but hey ho. Due to previous reviews my wife and I chose to book the catamaran trip upon arrival, though disappointingly this was fully booked with six on standby six days in advance !!. Following a lengthy check in process we were escorted to our room which was a condo in the Palm Beach Apts, which was spacious and had a private pool, hence i cannot comment on the hotel rooms, but beach / bar chatter would indicate you are best to upgrade away from the road where it can be particularly noisy over the weekend due to street parties etc. The AI is of a good standard with a la carte most meals with a few buffets thrown in to provide a variation. The bar is well stocked too with a variation of beers, spirits and cocktails too. I find the Caribbean staff to be of a mixed standard which appeared evident at the Mango Bay with the delightful Peter and Tre engaging with customers very well, Marcia and Pedro professional, courteous and friendly and positive mentions for Maxine and Joyce too. However, the beach staff were a mixture of total disinterest and robotic. The pool and beach appear fine and pretty well kept. Three words of warning; The beach has an extremely sharp incline once in the water therefore older guests proceed with care. There is a rope to pull yourself out but this needs a degree of physical strength. When checking in you are given detail of the sunbed / towel process which dictates your towel will be removed if left for more than half and hour, or one hour for lunch. This was ignored as there was a large group celebrating an elder birthday, who would reserve their sunbeds pre 7am and took around the full 16 on the terraced area which maybe elder guests may have benefitted. Nothing was done about these and others, and selfishly this was done every day of their stay if they were around the hotel or not. ( We used to blame other nationalities for this but embarrassingly i find Brits the worst ). We still went on a catamaran provided by one of the beach fellas passing by which was pleasant enough though the two hours turned out to be one and a quarter. $80 dollars for two but received $20 refund for the short trip. Ultimately, this is a good standard and although the Oceans Two in the south is a nicer hotel the AI is a good alternative and with eats and drinks out pretty expensive makes for a good choice. We tend to eat out quite a bit usually, but the food was really good therefore were happy to eat at the MG. There appeared to be a heck of a lot of returning guests, which is a positive. Enjoy.

Mango Bay where do i start? We booked a seaview room which was 100% worth the extra money, any guest that walked into our room was shocked at our view, sunsets are amazing. The staff are soo friendly from cara at the reception to the cleaners and aido at the bar and his friends. If you need something and they can help you they wont say no And go out there way to accommodate. The restaurant staff is lovely, pedro is great and so are the others just too many to remember all there names…and The choice of food on an all inc is amazing, some days its buffet and some a la carte the food will not disappoint. Even had steak one night! We did head out to oistins and the food there was amazing too. Even with a outside curfew of 9 theres soo much to do, but in the resort the bar is open until 22.30 and guests normally sat outside until 23.00ish. As a youngish couple in our 30’s that was plentiful as the drinks start flowing from 10am when it opens and boy do they have a selection for an all inclusive from shooters and beer to rum vodka whiskey wine to an array of crazy cocktails which are soo good. Strawberry daquiri and mudslide was our favs. The swimming pool is great and the hotel is on the beach where they have soo many activities. I done the jetski which i paid for but the hotel does offer free excursions like the catamaran which is soo good. Theres herbie and jade who sit on the beach and offer there own excursions too which are paid for but they are trust worthy. Even though it said rain and thunderstorms it rained for like 20 mins in the whole week. The water is soo clear and the sand is clean! The hotel is generally very clean and covid compliant throughout. we swam with turtles which is a popular excursion. Harrisons cave is also worth a visit and the hotel offer an excursion at a cost where you see harrisons cave and carlisle bay which has white sand and another beautiful beach with a restaurant called the boatyard which is really good too, the location of this resort is spot on. You walk out the front and you have a cartier and a shopping centre with ralph lauren and afew more shops opposite the hotel, about 3 mins walk away is burger king/ and a big supermarket. Barbados is very much safe with covid they are very careful from the minute you arrive at the airport hence the low rates. I actually came back to the uk and felt uneasy when i saw people in shops without there masks on. You get used to the pride they take in safety on the island. Do take factor 50 min sun lotion, we are sikh (indian) and we have got a serious tan thats how hot it is there. Everyone gets to know one another on the resort and its great we met some fantastic people out there and made some Friends and the hotel guests are 90% brits.
P.s Make sure you tip out there because everything the staff do they do it with a smile on there face. Thank you mango bay and look forward to seeing you again!

This is a difficult review to write as our holiday was very different from the 1st to the 2nd week. Our 1st impression of the hotel was not a positive one. The pool was dirty and our room, in the standard block, was definitely not of a 4* standard. It was dark, tired looking and the view from the balcony wasnt great and even worse from the back. I understand some rooms in the standard block have been updated, however we were unlucky. When we ventured to the bar/restaurant area there were very few places to sit for a drink and we were disappointed at the standard of the food which was a buffet that evening. After speaking with the hotel and Tui throughout the followimg day we were offered a superior room but wouldn't be able move until 4 days into our holiday. During the 4 days in the standard room it wasn't cleaned nor towels changed. The food in the restaurant was much better when 'a la carte' and Pedro was fabulous he, Mikela and Nicholas were always polite and happy to help. The service was often very slow which I put down to Covid measures being followed so understandable. Heading into our 2nd week, we moved rooms which was of a much better standard and had this been our first impression of the hotel may have helped us have a more positive mindset. The cleaning of the rooms was every other day and everyday for the last 3 days. The hotel has some excellent staff members; Ronald, Pedro, Omar, Kyle to name but a few. However, some made us sometimes feel a burden even though we were always polite. Jerry is a diamond! Damien worked hard on the beach and ensured we had beds and an umbrella. During our 2nd week waiter service was introduced on the beach and the lovely lady and Damien worked hard to serve us drinks or bring jugs of water. We made use of the free watersports which were great - paddle boards, kayaks and speed boat rides as well as the mini catamaran. However, there wasnt a complimentary glass bottom boat trip and the 2 hour catamaran trip was a disappointment. It never stopped to allow us to snorkel. Although a fanatstic location all in all we felt our holiday was not up to the 4* rating or the 5k price tag. As much as we appreciated the improvement in our 2nd week we would not stay at Mango Bay again unless priced more appropriately.

Responded Sep 5, 2021
Dear SpS Darwen, Thank you so much for your review and I am delighted that you mention so many of our team who made a difference during your stay with us! It is really important for us to know that we were able to turn things around when our guests were disappointed with any aspect of their stay, so your taking the time to write this review means so much to us . We are not always perfect but we are aiming to be, and your feedback emphasizes the importance of always letting us know whilst in resort how we might not be meeting expectations so we can work our hardest at getting it right while we have the chance to. As you quite correctly mentioned, we are working with many new Covid protocols and doing our best to ensure that our service is not affected in any way with the current restrictions. With regards to the Glass bottom Boat , we have advised all of our contracted partners that we can no longer provide this excursion. It is quite possible however that this notification may have crossed with your stay with us . I am nonetheless pleased that you were able to enjoy our wonderful pool and beach service and watersports. We assure you that as we adjust to the new covid protols, many areas like buffets which now have to be served, servicing of rooms which we have now moved to daily as we believe our inhouse protocols are strict enough to do this, boat trips which are limited to half of maximum persons on boats, not being able to sit at the bar...all of these which are so different now will constantly be reassessed to ensure that our guests are not being negatively impacted and are having the best experience! I do hope that you will consider staying with us again in future as we we continue to adjust and excel. Kind regards, Shireene Mathlin- Tulloch Mango Bay Group

After going on a weeks cruise we decided after thorough research to stay at mango bay for a week. Upon reception we thought, great. Suitcases taken to our rooms, had cooling towels to refresh us, rum punch or other drink whilst completing paperwork.then we eere quickly shown our rooms before given lunch. Excellent. After lunch we went to our rooms, taking in everything as you go along to your room, well we noticed opposite drink shaks for a better word, didn't think much of it, then when we went in the room we inspected our balcony view (should have been garden) well this was a disappointment, it was overlooking the reception front/carpark. On putting our clothes away, although the room was very clean, there was a sticky residue on the handles, we decided to keep our clothes in the suitcase. The bed was of great size and comfortable however you'll need to get pass the yellow foam feeling throw, yuk ! By this time I was sobbing, not what I had paid for, what made it worse by the end of the first day music from the shaks continued on into the morning 4am to be precise, karaoke at it's worse, we managed to get three nights sleep, even asking to be moved on the first day, it wasnt available. On the plus side, the food was great, the staff were great especially the bar boys, cleanliness is great, location is good, beach is great.its definitely NOT described as in some holiday brochures and definitely NOT 5 star, "BE AWARE"

Your concerns, is the very reason I don't rely solely on guests reviews, everyone's experiences are different, I've been there a few times and never saw a slope on the beach as the west coast has some of the calmest in comparison to the east coast, even on a high tide day the sea is pretty safe, the property is beachfront with a beautiful beach and in terms of the pool, there's a lagoon pool on site and the only all-inclusive hotel on the west coast that is value for money, and one last thing...I think it's best you get your information on the other hotel's review page and not try to get info on another's review page it just don't seem right somehow or better yet call or email the property and do your own research, not just rely on others for information which is usually not always coming from a good place as some may have had a bad experience.

We stayed at The Sea Breeze a year ago and Mango Bay in Feb/March this year - whilst we had a great time at both, Mango Bay edged it. The staff were amazing, the beach was better, the food and restaurant service better PLUS you are in Holetown and can just step outside to enjoy the bars, restaurants, shops etc. It's very different but if when we go back it will be to Mango Bay for certain. 1 piece of advice tho - choose your room carefully! If you have one that backs onto First St then Friday-Sunday you won't get a quiet night until c2am perhaps later if it's not raining! We stayed in the beachfront rooms and they were excellent although you have to pay a premium. I thin anything facing the pool should be OK, just avoid those rooms on 1st St!!!

Plenty of sunbeds on the beach although they get "taken" early, especially those not under the trees. Pool area seemed a little easier to get a bed and plenty of choice for shade and sun. As for towels, yes you get them when you first arrive and just change them at the end of each day - some days if your late then it's the following morning.
There are more places to choose from in the Holetown area.
