Tamarind by Elegant Hotels Hotel

The best is the beach and the ocean view of our room. The food, in general, is very good, and the staff very friendly. The location of the hotel is also very good. Very friendly staff. For us one of the best hotels in this price range on the Platinum Coast. We had a room with a balcony and ocean view and loved it. There is no control in the chairs of the beach, even though you can not reserve the same people do it even before 7 am, to arrive until 10 am in some cases, without the hotel staff saying something. There are not enough implements in the watersports for the demand, and they also close very early (4.30 pm) when it could be up to an hour later. Thank you Tamarind for another memorable we will be back.

A really warm welcome with cool towels and rum punch with an immediate upgrade to a suite. The room was large, huge bathroom, coffee maker, I phone dock, safe and fridge. Lovely balcony. The grounds and gardens are impeccably maintained, two pools, and the adult pool which no one used bar us, which was an oasis. Beach outside the hotel with free water sports, we used the speedboat, snorkeling on the reef, water taxi to the Colony club. Also used the beach lads to swim with the turtles and over the ship wreck, a delightful way to spend a morning. The guys in the water sports hut were really helpful, especially at low tide which saved a few cut legs on the reef when they showed me the safe way to get over the coral. Reception was brilliant booking restaurants for us, and arranging our car hire. The staff everywhere at this hotel were so helpful, nothing was too much bother, and always with a smile and a chat. The beach ambassadors with the melon mid morning, ice lollies in the afternoon and waiter service on the beach, brilliant. Lunches at the bar were good and the rotis were our particular favorite. We were initially put off by other guests to try eating at the restaurant at night. Eventually we ate there twice , and the food, service and location on the beach was as good as many of the restaurants we ate at. I would go so far to say that the Caribbean food night was one of the best meals we had all holiday. The hotel is situated well for exploring the island, we visited Bathsheba, Welchman’s hall gully, Forest flowers, St Nicholas’ abbey, Bottom bay and Crane beach. Also ideal for getting the Reggae buses as well as the national ones. Used them to go to Bridgetown and the garrison,as well as late at night form restaurants. We loved the holiday and the hotel, the staff, the food, ambiance, location, weather and the people really made this a wonderful Caribbean experience. More laid back and friendly and totally safer than we expected.
