Little Good Harbour

First visit to Little Good Harbour and we had a really lovely relaxing stay. We were met by Trevor who showed us round the one bed villa we had booked. Great first impression. Accommodation over two levels with large veranda, sitting area and kitchen downstairs and bedroom, bathroom and balcony upstairs. We actually preferred the upstairs balcony as the seaview from it was beautiful (apt **). Rooms were kept immaculate by the great housekeeping team and everyone who worked there seemed really friendly. Two great pools also with towels provided. Kitchen was well equipped with tea, coffee, sugar, pepper etc. A car is in my opinion essential as the location is quiet (which is why most people love it) but makes life easier for getting around and sightseeing, eating in different restaurants etc. if you don’t drive the Fishpot restaurant across the road is very good and you can use local buses or taxis. Some previous reviews mentioned the busy road outside. It was never a problem or particularly noisy and easy to cross. Also comments made about there being no bar service at the pool is incorrect as you can order drinks via WhatsApp and someone came round the pool regularly to take order for drinks so not a problem. Mosquitos were abundant on the island so if you’re prone to getting bitten take precautions to avoid them. I got bitten a couple of times but not at the hotel. The beach at the hotel is small but we preferred the pool anyway. There is a lovely beach in nearby Speightstown called Heywoods beach with plenty of parking although it was packed at the weekend. All in all a lovely relaxing stay. If your thing is big glitzy hotels with concierge, turn down service, kids clubs etc this is not the place for you. If you want to chill out in lovely surroundings and do your own thing you’ll love it here. I could have quite happily stayed on

I absolutely loved my stay at Little Harbour. The villa was large and well laid out, the decor was tasteful, housekeeping kept the place immaculate. I stayed in a two bedroom villa with my parents and there was plenty of space. We never felt like we were on top of each other. The layout of the grounds, pools, etc was really nicely designed. It felt like a private magical world. We ate most of our meals at The fish Pot restaurant. The food was great. The staff were amazing. Service was prompt in comparison to other restaurants on the island. The only slight downside was that the coral reef in the sea near by didn't look very healthy. But that is not a fault of Good Little Harbour.

Having read Ron H’es review I was compelled to add a counter positive review of my own . I am finding the LGH a delightful friendly place with the personal touch you will be unlikely to find in other establishments. Poolside bartender was evident and you can even WhatsApp the bar for service.. there is also plenty of non eating seats for guests to take drinks ! Yes there is a lack of beach but a good pontoon is there . You are only a few minutes walk (25 mins) from good beaches to the south . The fish pot restaurant does have specials and a quite extensive menu. I will return ! Regards Howard (62 year old , IT professional and volunteer steam train driver , likes cats and good food) .

The website misrepresents the current situation. While bungalows are fine the restaurant booking system gives no priority to guests, there is minimal beach due to erosion and the pool service is non-existent. The restaurant menu does not change, there are no specials. There is no hotel bar just somewhere to squeeze in at the restaurant. Needs an update in website and efficiency. Barbados itself is becoming too expensive as economy struggles.

My party of four (two couples) had a fantastic stay at LGH in the two-bedroom fort suite. The lovely staff made the whole holiday all the more enjoyable - each and every lady and gentleman and Olivia, Andrea and Arlene in particular. Thank you for the care and memories, hope to return!

It's peaceful. Has a more local feel. The staff is great - super attentive and friendly. Always a consistently excellent experience at the Fish Pot restaurant.
