مانجو باي - أول إنكلوسف

Exceeded expectation! Absolutely stunning place to stay! Location was perfect! Staff were so lovely and helpful ☺️ the room was so clean and luxurious, felt so homely. The food…what can I say…:just WOW! Thank you Mango Bay so much for having us, see you again next year!

This was our first seven night stay on the West Coast although we’ve done many restaurants & activities there over those years. . We have been travelling across since 1988 & spent all our time on the excellent South Coast including getting married nearly twenty years ago. We were not disappointed! We stayed in a room at the rear overlooking the pools which was perfectly adequate for our needs. The room was well maintained, cleaned regularly & had good AC. Many people come to Barbados expecting the star rating to be comparable to those of European type RIU Hotels but for myself I have never experienced this. It is what it is! As long as it’s clean, has good healthy running water, a comfortable bed & ample storage I will always be content. The bathroom was more than adequate & yes, the first night was greeted with a street party at the rear but I was more concerned over the singing standard than the sound. It’s Barbados. It’s a holiday & it’s Al fresco with people enjoying the warmth, hospitality & drinks so it pleases me in every sense. We even engaged One Love ourselves & were made very welcome. The bar is centralised, functional & very well staffed. At no time were we ‘deliberately’ kept waiting. There are busy periods but that is the same anywhere. From reception to bar to beach we were met with friendliness & a warmth of that of the island. Nothing was too much trouble. There are obvious names but I’m going to steer clear here as it’s unfair on those who sit in the background but are equal of respect. The breakfast wasn’t always on time but hey, that’s the Caribbean for you but it was well catered. We engaged with snacks & BBQ at lunchtime but the choice was adequate & enjoyable. Beach service was constant & a delight. Seeing people smile is infectious & there was plenty of that. The Hotel evening meals were also fine although we ventured out to eat in the evenings as well in Limegrove at the excellent House of Jaipur & Calma, next door which I am given to believe is owned by Mango Bay. In fact the stretch of beach was delightful & holds other spots to visit which is great. Beach time was never a problem. A full house on an Easter break didn’t stop us obtaining sun loungers & the staff were accommodating with the over cushions. There are many tours and things the hotel put on as part of the deal. We didn’t engage in many as we’ve covered most over the years but did enjoy the historical tour of about two hours on the Friday. Would recommend that to anyone visiting. As age is taking its toll the need to gorge on AI has diminished but the thing I loved more than anything was the fact there was no wristband, no one taking your room number for stats on drinks & no desire to slow the process. It’s simply excellent. Now that we have found our West Coast legs and the beautiful surroundings we will surely return. Hopefully again this year. I’d also add that so many people focus on negatives these days. You will find those everywhere but

What an amazing experience. An upgrade of rooms upon arrival. Food was outstanding. Staff made every single person feel special. Enough sunbeds, cocktails, and sunshine!! Honestly can’t complain about a thing. We used the free catamaran trip & kayaking. Beds were super comfortable….despite a new hotel being built next door; you don’t notice it. Beach was lovely, sandy and a great atmosphere. Perfect location. We hired a car from Roetts and service was 100%. Staff helpful giving advise about the island, transport etc. special mention to Damian, Rayden, shema, Dionell, Nik, Faith & Tionne. However all staff are professional and give more than 100%.
