- Area description
- Combining fine Mediterranean architecture with an unspoiled beachfront setting, Bougainvillea Beach Resort is centrally located on the beautiful south coast of the island. Sitting directly on the Maxwell Beach, the resort is just 15 minutes from the airport, and 15 minutes from the capital, Bridgetown. Oistins fishing village, known for its popular Friday Night Fish Fry is just 5 minutes away. St. Lawrence Gap - famous for its great restaurants, lively bars and vibrant nightlife, is also just 5 drive minutes from the resort. Bougainvillea is a wonderful and relaxing escape in its tranquil setting but near enough to all of the activity that the vibrant South Coast of Barbados offers.

Good and not so good
Just returned from 5 nights at Bougainvilla Beach resort. Good things: Very nice grounds, beach and staff. Everyone was helpful and friendly. Every night there was some sort of free entertainment until 10:00. We stayed in a one bedroom unit which was rather spacious. Loved the large balcony which had a dining table and chairs, as well as lounge chairs. Hotel is a 5 minute taxi ride to the St Lawrence Gap which had lots of good restaurants. We hired one of the regular taxi drivers at the hotel to take us on an island tour which was really nice. Not so good things: The bed was hard as a rock. We did ask for some extra padding, but it didn't help all that much. The couches in the living room were extremely uncomfortable. Very little water pressure when taking a shower and there was a sewage smell coming from the toilet.

Very good deal. Most beach for the buck
Right on a beautiful stretch of beach. That is the main deal. Hotel has 2 restaurants which are very good and an easy choice after a lazy beach day. Often have entertainment. Rooms are simple, perhaps a little dated but this place is a very good deal on an expensive island.

Good hotel not overly luxurious
Comfortable hotel well run although not as luxurious as some adjoining hotels. Situated right on a beautiful beach which was never overcrowded. Something of a walk to the restaurant/bar area although taxis/buses easy to come by.

Good hotel
The hotel had a fabulous view and the water was great. They had a couple of pools and had nightly events. The room was very spacious but they need to get new beds as they were not comfortable. They didn't have a lot of snorkel equipment and it took several days for us to get to sign it out. We went in the beginning of June in their off-season and the weather was great and not a lot of people at the hotel so it seemed like it was our own private hotel.

Best hotel for the price
Barbados is a lovely island with wonderful people. The hotel is excellently located on the South Coast. The water and beaches are exceptional. Rooms very clean, big bathroom, could use a TV in the seperate bedroom. Hotel contracts out tours and watersports (snorkel gear, wake boards, etc.) Not very good, didn't even have any masks when I asked. Kids went surfing (use Barry's) and resort diving (use Roger's). Meals onsite somewhat reasonable for breakfast and lunch, expensive dinners. Taxis are expensive, use your feet or shuttles and buses to save money. Check out Harrison's Cave, don't bother with the Rum distillerly or beer bewery tours, not worth the money. One of if not the best island I have been to and I've been to many.

Head to the "Gap" 15min walk for excellent food at reasonable prices. Especially check out "Happy Days" for breakfast and lunch and "del Sol" for lunch and dinner.

A great stay - wish it were longer
Excellent. Lovely room, beach, staff & totally relaxing. Friendly & helpful staff. Clean, good amenities and attention to details. It exceeded our expectations. Our ground floor double studio was so convenient but we could see it could be noisy with the bar music & children playing in the high season - we would take Ipods next time to block out noise! We were right by the swim-to pool bar. The east block has a deeper pool & seems quieter - it depends what you want. The weak point would be the restaurant food - limited menu & expensive for what you get. If staying longerw we would self cater all the time. No point in pre-booking restaurant meals. There is a free shuttle to super market twice a week or a smaller convenience store at The Gap that is 15 minute walk along the beach. Local buses are only 5 minutes walk. The sound of the surf was great - as good as North Shore Hawaii ith the benefit of being able to go in the shallows even if not a surfer. We'll be back!

In Hotel
Eat in but self cater. What is better than preparing simple food yourself in well equipped studios - some have full kitchens - enjoy a bottle of wine with the sound of the ocean. Music from the hotel's restaurant could also be heard from our studio. Hotel BBQ night had excellent music. I'd go back there tomorrow.

enjoyed Barbados
Enjoyed the stay for a nice low-key vacation. Staff were very helpful and facilitated activities. 3 pool and 2 beach areas. One side was quieter than the other, which was a nice option. Restaurant was expensive - that was the only drawback.

Pablo Dante's restaurant is around the corner. They are open late - we ate there the night we arrived around 10pm. And open early for breakfast too. *Also check out Harrisons Cave - awesome site.
