This is a wonderful hotel, the forethought that went into the planning and design is very obvious in each and every feature. Located opposite the delightfully peaceful and oh, so picturesque Payne's bay beach it caters for all aspects of a Caribbean holiday with charm, personality and integrity. We loved our Ylang Ylang villa, high ceilings, lounge area, kitchen, beautiful bedroom and ultra modern bathroom, all impeccably clean, decorated in an appealing local style and surrounded by well manicured, tropical gardens. The communication with Amanda at the time of booking was personal, friendly and efficient, it was replicated by other staff members during our stay, making us feel very welcome. We enjoyed time at the swimming pools, all are equipped with adequate sun loungers and umbrellas and the Sugar Apple restaurant is a very pleasant place to dine at any time of the day. We are sooooooo pleased we stayed at Beach View on our first visit to Barbados. We also really appreciated the reggae buses which took us to various places on the island and stop right outside the hotel. A fantastic time.
