Treasure Beach Art Hotel, Barbados, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort

Just returned from a wonderful two weeks at Treasure Beach with my husband. The hotel reopened in December following a programme of refurbishment. The hotel is adults only and provides all inclusive dining. We stayed in room 314 the Pelican suite which was a beautiful room facing the sea with a balcony with room for two sunbeds and a lovely plunge pool. The room was spacious and had a lovely comfy bed. The food was great with a great selection. All meals were buffet or a la carte. There was an opportunity to dine inside or on the patio. The meals were prepared by some great chefs and there was a good variety. Special mention to the desserts which looked and tasted lovely. The hotel had a small pool and a beach side location with onsite water sports including snorkelling, water skiing. The beach was clean and the sea a beautiful blue. The sea is occasionally choppy and it has a flag system to ensure you are safe. There is a water taxi which takes guests to other hotels in the elegant group so you can enjoy their facilities. Unfortunately Waves was the only hotel that was open whilst we were there due to the refurbishment programme. There was some building work being done next door at the tamarind which was noisy at times however it didn't spoil our holiday. The best part of hotel was the wonderful staff who cannot do enough to help you. They genuinely want to get to know you and care that you have a great holiday. we can't mention every one but just a few include Chantelle, Sabrina, Sandy, Wade, Quasi Sofia, Andrew but these are only a few they were all fab. We also loved Alana on the reception desk. It was also the first time we have ever noticed the hotel manager coming round to talk to the guests to ensure we were having a good experience and to thank you for coming. We met some really nice people while we were there which helped to make it a great holiday and we would love to return. There is only one small inconvenience the sunbed situation. We said we would never get up early to put towels on beds but to get a beach bed it involved a 6 am alarm and we only managed to secure beds with an umbrella once in two weeks.

This is a small, horseshoe shaped enclave with a modest pool. One outdoor bar and one indoor/outdoor restaurant. Spacious accommodations in 3-story white buildings with balconies and West Indian touches. Most rooms have a lovely view of the pool or ocean. Minimalist decor in the rooms in shades of warm beige and cool gray. Ours consisted of a sitting room, large bedroom, and a high-end 4-piece bathroom. Beds were extremely comfy. Good AC from a pair of mini-splits. The recent renovation left some rough edges -- a leaky roof and almost zero water pressure in the tub, as if a rushed contractor installed a lavatory valve in the wall. The shower was excellent but the wall-mount dispensers kept falling off. Food is average by Marriott standards, as is often the case in the Caribbean due to the cost of shipping. Breakfast and lunch were buffets, adequate for our needs. Dinners were okay. The menu included 3 starters and 3 entrees that varied nightly. Two nights are buffet style. The small all-day menu was excellent. Bar service was sometimes slow but pours were decent. Beer is limited to Banks and Caribe, both nice lagers. The staff was far and away the best we’ve had in the Caribbean. Polished and welcoming with only a couple of grumps. Pool is small and deep, very clean. Grounds were small but landscaping was gorgeous and immaculate. There is chaise seating around the small pool, along the front seawall, and 6 or 8 further chairs on the sliver of available beach. Chair hogs were an issue here. Water crashes into—and occasionally over—the seawall. Very relaxing. On the calmer bit of beach, the water is spectacular and calm. There you can catch an hourly water taxi to other Marriott properties but we didn't use it.

Great stay at the Treasure Beach resort. Just recently completed a year-long refurbishment so everything in good order. The staff are outstanding - very friendly and welcoming and always smiling. The resort is small with only 35 rooms and centred around a small pool and bar area directly overlooking the beach. The proximity may not suit everyone but it makes for an intimate feel where everyone congregates and makes friends easily. Older crowd of well-traveled people mostly from the UK. Evening entertainment was well matched to the group and high quality as were the food and drinks. Definitely recommend staying here.

We stayed here over xmas and only as The House was not available. First of all the staff are truly excellent,kind cheerful and attentive. Limited menus but food acceptable. The main issue we experienced was supply of drinks,running out of stock and using unbranded alcohol. Staff were actually from The house which was still being refurbished and they tried so hard to please. Remember also Treasure beach has only just been remodelled,so there were teething issues. But rooms are fine and any problems resolved quickly. We will come again,but stay at The house next door.

My husband and I had a wonderful 10 nights here at Treasure Beach Hotel. Although we had one of the garden view suits (1st floor), we were really impressed with the standard of our suite. On entry to the suite was the living area with a sofa, table and doors onto the balcony. There was also a sink, fridge, kettle and coffee machine. The bed was an extremely generous size and the bathroom had both a large shower and bath and ‘his and her’ sinks. The air conditioning in both the bedroom and living room was very efficient. To note, there was one plug socket in our suite that could take a standard UK plug without the need for an adaptor. The housekeeping staff were very thorough and kept our suite clean and tidy- I don’t know how they made our bed so immaculate (even after I had attempted myself!) The food here was amazing! Very impressed, especially as it was an a la carte menu for breakfast lunch and dinner. The dinner menu seemed to be on a rolling weekly programme and the lunch menu changed every two days. Breakfast was the same menu every day but with plenty of choice, both hot and cold, I especially enjoyed the eggs benedict. The staff were friendly, helpful and accommodating and made us feel very welcome. The hotel had a programme of events for guests to enjoy/take part in should they wish. My husband and I done some pre-breakfast Sunday morning yoga and also done an hour of mandala art. The Saturday night singer over dinner was very good. Because Treasure Beach is part of the Elegant Hotel chain, we were also able to make use of the other sister hotels and also eat lunch/dinner there. There is a water taxi that departs from the hotel next door (the Tamarind) that serves the sister hotels (Waves, Crystal Cove and Colony Club). Colony Club is the only one that is not included as an all inclusive option- you can eat there, but you will need to pay extra. Watersports (paddle boarding, snorkelling, kayaking, water skiing, banana boat) are also offered from the Tamarind and are included in the all-inclusive package. The location of Treasure Beach is perfect- direct access to Paynes Bay Beach, that you can actually walk all the way to Holetown along (some wading through the shallow bits of sea involved). I don’t think I would ever get tired of looking at the crystal clear, blue seas and soft, white sands-stunning. At the time of our stay the hotel was at half occupancy as the other rooms were undergoing a renovation. This is a small and intimate, adult only hotel and suited us perfectly, we would definitely return if we got the chance. Thank you to everyone that made it a special trip for us.

I loved my stay here! The staff was so accommodating and welcoming. The hotel itself could use a few updates but overall it is well maintained. Also, if I would compare it to its sister Tamarind next door, I would say it’s better maintained. The views were stunning. The food was good and there was a variety offered. I would also suggest adding some entertainment or maybe themed nights. The service, lets start with manager Sophia, I saw her literally carrying a guest bags to their room. I think that speaks to the dedication of the staff. The concierge desk with Alaina, Destiny and Sabrina was so helpful, they arranged our excursions for us and made sure we were happy. Alaina ( I know this is misspelled sorry), contacted one of them without me knowing to tell them of my daughters birthday. A very pleasant surprise!. They have best bartenders and servers who always greeted us warmly and had the best personalities. Rasheed, Lashonda (Dimples), Oneila, were the best to name a few. Grounds and housekeeping with Mark, Carl, Armani and Stadia who made our stay as comfortable as possible. We even met great fellow guest. I would totally recommend this hotel. And I plan on returning soon with friends.
