The accommodations were fantastic. Very clean, comfortable large size rooms. Staff were great everywhere throughout the resort. Loved the variety of restaurants and the food was so good. There was an unique signature cocktail at each restaurant at night which was very good too. Nightly entertainment gave us something to do to end the day. The onsite bowling lanes were fun too. Very happy we chose Royal Barbados.

Typically we do not frequent an all inclusive resort as we are not volume consumers of food or alcohol. There were some high notes here. The French restaurant and the steakhouse were good with some drinkable wines.

We had a wonderful time at Royal Sandals. The staff were friendly and so accommodating. The rooms were clean and on the club level the rooms are updated. The food was ok there is room for improvement in some of the restaurants. The pizza was good just wish they would have that station reopen for late night snacks. The resort grounds were beautifully managed, the only downside was they didn’t clean the beach area. It was full of sargassum. But other then that it is a beautiful resort

Upon arrival the check-in was extremely slow. Since we booked through Expedia we were not treated as regular guest who book directly thru Sandals and yet we paid alot for our stay at Sandals Royal. We were not given the room I paid for.
Which was a hideaway lagoon room away from pool view at the Royals side. Some of the restaurants the food was not what is expected from Sandals. The beach was very rough and not safe. We couldn’t do any of the water activities that were included. Overall not a great all inclusive experience. I will never stay at Sandals again anywhere else. Our experience at the Sandals in Jamaica was much better. Spend ur money somewhere else!!!

This was my first and last experience with Sandals. I've been to a few all inclusives and this one does not compare, unfortunately. It was not immersive to the culture. We could've stayed anywhere and not know we were in Barbados. Music on the property was country music. I can get that at home. Hours are limited, such as room service whereas all inclusives are usually 24/7 service. Service was also very very slooooow. Food was of good quality, but drinks were not well made and though they were friendly, you can tell the staff was unwilling and again, very slow. We knew once we sat down, it would be an hour before we got our food. There was no going the extra mile. Pastries were also very stale and not good. Property needs updating and for paying so much, inclusions should be more readily available. Seemed like a waste of money. Also, property is nothing like the pictures at all.
