Kathy was amazing. Made our stay worth wild. Would have loved to have both restaurants open for dinner as we had a shellfish allergy and would have loved more options. Some staff could have been more accommodating regarding allergies but others were great

Great Staff, everyone was very friendly especially Hazel, she still works there in the same hotel, one of the longest employees that works still there after 29 years God Bless her.

Me and my wife had a fantastic time and the staff members were very hospitable.

The hotel is NOTHING of what you see on their website and pictures!! There are roaches and, wild crabs in the rooms!! There is mold all over the showers! The beds and pillows are HARD AS ROCKS!! The pools are full of ALGAE!! And should not be swam in! The lounge chairs and cushions are full of mold!! The bridge fell and a little girl got hurt!

Food was terrible and limited staff never smile or happy

Clean, safe, comfortable, friendly, and relaxing vacation.

The location on the edge of the beach is excellent with good pools and water sports. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Food is very good. The Reflections restaurant is fine by the day however at night the lighting is very poor in certain areas. Drifters, the outdoor restaurant, near the beach is good. The Room we had was clean but in need of refurbishment. The entrance door lock was very stiff and required easing with oil. The drawers to the chest would not stay closed. The bathroom was clean, however the Bath base enamel finish was chipped and the shower controls were in need of easing. Hot and cold supplies were good. Toilet and wash basins were good. We enjoyed our stay in spite of the faults. We understand the hotel is due to have a full refurbishment and following this the location, staff and food will make this a great location.

Needs more dining options and ran out of ice daily

we were greeted in a friendly and professional manner that expedited our business transaction quickly, and were able to get to our room to begin our vacation. The room was clean, comfortable, and well organized. Like many hotel rooms, it did not have enough electrical outlets, but we may do. The landscaping and architecture were tasteful and well designed. It was adequately lit at night, but not in a harsh or overly bright manner. The food at both restaurants were well prepared and had a very good variety. Every member of the staff was upbeat, positive, friendly, and helpful. We certainly had enough recreation options. The beach and waters were super. Overall, we had a wonderful time.

Every staff member we encountered was fantastic, really making us feel welcome. That was really what made our experience so great. The drinks were great and the food was better, we enjoyed the different themes of foods. The complimentary water sports were a plus too. Overall we had a really good time here

The setting is gorgeous. That said, the property is in poor repair. Heard there are plans for a refurbishment in 2025. The food was poor quality, akin to a school cafeteria. Needs some better management and training for staff.

Extremely Disappointing. All Inclusive was less than substandard. The place is Very Tired and still back in 94, and now its's 2024 !! Extremely overpriced and misleading website for food and property

I can’t say enough good things about Crystal Cove. Though the rooms need some TLC (refurbishment scheduled for later this year) it is the staff that truly makes this place a gem. It is the reason we keep coming back year after year for more than the past decade!

Check- in was long and moody, no one smiles

This place was horrible. Old, falling apart, service with a scowl, inedible food.. I could go on and on. It really was the accumulation of dozens of issues that accumulates during your first day of being there. There is a nice view, with a rocky beach, and that’s all they have going for them.. the manager Raj was brought in for the Marriott “transition” and from what I can tell, is not doing a good job at all.. we ended up leaving to another hotel, with no refund, after our 2nd night of 5 total. They offered 1,000 Marriott points but no refund. We came back to get as many drinks from the bar during day when we felt like going to the beach, but couldn’t stomach the food or the service so we never would last long. The beach chairs and cushions are growing something on them.. and never any towels available… I could go on and on..

Can’t thank the staff enough for how great they were - particularly with our 10month old son. The hotel were so good at being flexible with us where our schedule was, at times, dictated by our baby. The food is great. Of all the hotels we have stayed at in Barbados, this has by far the best vibe. It was perfect for our first holiday with our new born son.

I stayed for 3 nights and 2 nights in a row the fire alarm went off at 3am in the morning interrupting my sleep and scaring the hell out of me. Outside my room there was a generator or something doing a terrible noise that didn’t end.

Staff were great. Overall great vibes and fun resort.

Beach was not fully accessible, you were limited to a very small part to be able to swim in. Water taxi was not running 4/5 days we were there. limit on beach towels, max 1 per person, no extras. Dining for dinner was usually just 1 resaurant open.

Breakfast, needs more variety.

Some of the staff were rude. One of the staff who works at the restaurant scammed us, we paid for a wine bottle with cash and she charged it to your room. We found out when we checked out, the person who checked us out did nothing about that issue. The room was falling apart literally, and the room is super tiny absolutely no room for anything. There was no water at all in the room for 3 hours one day. The food was my biggest issue. If you stay at an all inclusive you would think that there is options to eat throughout the day. Not at this resort! At 4 pm one day I was hungry the restaurant was closed and they sent me to Vista cafe where they offered ham and cheese sandwiches (if they don’t ran out). After I realized how ridiculous this was I left back to Turtle beach resort!

Staff were pleasant and helpful. Food was good rooms and dining areas were well kept and clean.

Friendly staff, wonderful views, tasty food, nice big pools, everything you need for a comfortable stay. Easy check in, received complimentary drink. Best thing about the property are the staff. Pleasant and friendly.

First time visiting Barbados and won’t be our last. The weather was beautiful and the beach and pool were refreshing. The staff at this resort made our experience positive and went out of their way to ensure we had a great time and were accommodated. Honorable mentions to Sasha, Camille, Jensel, and Antonette. One young man we didn’t get the pleasure of knowing his name, went out of his way to get us cricket tickets for the game on Saturday which was much appreciated - I will need to update this review so he he noted respectfully. Overall we had a great time. It was definitely a more relaxing resort if you’re looking to wind down. Will definitely recommend this resort to my friends, family and colleagues.

Food quality was not good. Not much to do on the area or in resort other then pool or beach. My biggest disappointment was the food and bar area. For the money we payed I felt like I was starving everyday. Every morning is the same food for breakfast and only some days they change the lunch menu. If you miss lunch or dinner you’re screwed. No more food available to eat. Only 2 restaurants and you have to make reservations. Pool is small and bar looks like a backyard bar. It’s messy and they melts running out of ice. So disappointed. I was ready to leave after day 1 here. The staff took sometime to warm up to us but eventually they were amazing.

Staff at the property was welcoming and very accommodating.

This resort is absolutely breathtaking and the staff are some of the nicest people we’ve ever met. Great location to come to with family or friends. Water sports are fun and easy to book, additional activities are easy to find, and food was delicious!

The beach was very nice…we loved the water sports available right on the property. I would have enjoyed a little bit more group activity options during the day (water aerobics, trivia, games..), but overall, the resort was very relaxing and beautiful.

The beach was very nice and the staff was helpful and friendly. My biggest complaint is the quality and variety of the food. For breakfast they have a very limited buffet. Lunch is the same offering a limited buffet of burgers, tacos, and wraps. For dinner they offer 3 main courses. For being an island they offer very limited seafood options. They have a sweet sauce they put on everything pork, lamb, fish. The food selection is cheap. The entertainment is very poor during the day there is no music playing at all. There were a couple of nights with live acts that were not bad but the rest of the nights the music was slow and boring. I expected to hear island music and that was very limited. I will definitely not return. This property is expensive for what you get. I’ve been to all inclusive resorts in other Caribbean islands and by far this was the worst.

Everything was good

The staff made our stay better. Absolutely love this place. It is beautiful and has amazing views.

Absolutely beautiful! Great staff and food.
