Waves Resort & Spa, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort

We’ve just arrived back from 10 nights at this hotel. We had a fantastic holiday and really enjoyed all the hotel had to offer. It’s clean, modern and well maintained, and our room was a great size. The restaurants provide good variety on a daily basis and the Kyma cafe was a great additional option for lunch or a snack. The free spa treatments were a nice touch and we made the most of the water sports included, motorised (ringos and water skiing) and non-motorised (paddle boarding, kayak and snorkelling). The beach was nice, but was quite small. That said we never had a problem getting a sun bed. The biggest highlight is the staff, who went out of their way to ensure we had a great time. The beach service was plentiful (thanks Akeel) and everyone else we came across was super friendly and helpful. I would happily recommend this hotel to friends and family.

We enjoyed our stay at Waves Resort. It's a quaint resort that fosters a social atmosphere, allowing guests to easily connect with one another. We met several people from different parts of the world, adding to the charm of our stay. Staff: The staff went out of their way to please the guests. Special shout-outs to Tamika, who took care of us the entire stay, and Kenny at the bar. Every staff member made us feel special, always acknowledging us. Celebrating our anniversary was memorable with a bottle of wine, dessert in our room, and a special table set up for dinner. Beach: The beachfront location is stunning, providing a perfect backdrop for a tranquil vacation. The beach is shorter than expected, but didn't stop us from snorkeling and enjoying the multiple water sports. Although sailing wasn't possible due to wind conditions, snorkeling right outside the resort was a highlight, with fish and turtles. Our drinks never ran dry at the beach, thanks to the attentive staff. Rooms: The rooms were fine, though they could use a refresh in decor. Bed was comfortable Food: Dining options are varied, with a mix of à la carte and buffet styles. We enjoyed eating at Kyma (now called Organic & Co.), which offers quick eats like sandwiches, wraps, salads, pastries, and coffee. We also took the ferry to Crystal Cove resort as part of the Dine Around Program and dined at Reflections. The buffet-style meal was okay, but the open-air atmosphere was quite hot, even with fans. Activities: We signed up for the Friday Night Oistins Fish Fry, which was highly recommended. The hotel provided transportation, making it easy to enjoy the event. The Fish Fry featured numerous booths with different types of seasoned seafood, souvenirs, and music. It was packed, so grabbing an open table quickly was a good idea. Overall, Waves Resort & Spa is a wonderful choice for those looking to unwind and enjoy the beauty of Barbados. The combination of excellent service, beautiful views, and a variety of activities makes it a memorable destination. We would definitely come back again to the resort.

What a lovely experience we had at this hotel. The staff were helpful, friendly and professional. Our room was poolside over the road from the main hotel, spotless from top to bottom, well appointed and quiet with a comfortable bed and plenty of pillows. This side of the hotel has an adults only pool, service of drinks, ice lollues and fresh fruit provided to your lounger and provides blissful oasis of relaxation - delightful. The food was good in the Seascape restaurant, nice choice for breakfast with an egg station cooking to guests requirements. Lunch and dinner also good. The Indian restaurant “Doha” was excellent - a unique fusion of Caribbean and Indian food. We ate there on several evenings and couldn’t fault it. Slight downside for us which was no fault of the hotel was the beach which is very small and been affected by recent wind and tides. All said and done we would go back in a heartbeat and no doubt will!

I stayed at Waves for a week for the first time with my elderly mum and wanted to say thank you to all the staff for making us feel so welcome and for looking after us so well. Everyone was so kind and patient and every interaction we had was a positive one. The hotel is immaculately clean, the food is great, the drinks are high quality and the signature cocktail is a must to try. We stayed in an ocean front room with spectacular views and sunsets. The water taxi service is great if you fancy trying a sister hotel. Big compliments to the restaurant staff (Valerie and Carol a special mention for being so lovely) Sherefilia behind the bar and Ryan in management who are also wonderful. All the staff were to be honest. We will definitely return if we get the chance and wanted to say thank you for a great week at a lovely hotel.

Previous reviews have said that the staff makes this resort. Those reviews could not be more exact. We have traveled to many beach resorts and the staff at Waves are the absolute best. We were checked into the resort by Astrid. What a nice girl. Always smiling and friendly. Jackie is a supervisor who seems to never go home. Jackie was always present, asking if everything was going well. Kenny in the lobby bar was also a pleasure. Kenny always seemed to remember our drinks. From the housekeeping staff to the restaurant staff, everyone was kind and helpful. There are just to many to name individually. The food was good and the resort was very clean. There was no musty smell like many beach resorts. The beach is small and entry to the water is somewhat rocky. We spent a day at Saavy on the Bay. Two chairs, an umbrella and round trip transportation was a mere $30.00. The beach has white sand, calm water with no rocks. A great value. I would like to thank those that touched our life at Waves and made our trip absolutely wonderful. May our paths cross again sometime in the future!

Wedding Anniversary that was amazing thanks to the Waves Staff. They really make you feel special. I like this resort because it had a major focus on “wellness.” That being said, they offered healthy meals and drinks. Finally, if you book a minimum of 5 nights, you get 2 free 30-minute massages.
