"When you pay for breakfast, it only includes adults and have to pay for children above 5. You will pay daily tax that was not mentioned on Expedia. The only bright side is that the Hilton is next to a beautiful beach! "
"Good room with a comfortable bed (not so comfortable fold-out couch, it was ok for kids), excellent air con, basic kitchen. Spacious grounds with nice swimming pools (in particular the beach-side pool was wonderful), mini golf and tennis were lots of fun. Location is excellent.
Only complaint would be, and it's a small complaint, that the property felt very quiet, almost like it was fully off season (despite it being easter and school holidays!) there was never any music by the pool, no pool side vibes. If you are looking for a lively place, this is not it. But for quiet and restful (with easy access to other restaurants and bars) it's perfect."
The Club, Barbados Resort & Spa Adults Only - All Inclusive
8/10 Good
"We had a wonderful time. The staff was very friendly and accommodating except for not getting our room cleaned a few days. The food was great, entertainment every night, and we loved finishing up our nights dancing at the piano bar. "
"We absolutely loved Barbados—the culture, the people, the food, the stunning beaches, and the ocean were all amazing! Unfortunately, our experience at The Crane Resort was quite disappointing.
The Good:
- The resort has beautiful grounds.
- Most of the staff were friendly and helpful.
- We stayed in a spacious private residence that offered fantastic views and a large balcony.
The Bad:
- The beach was unusable every day, forcing us into a cramped shuttle ride for 35 minutes to a very crowded alternative beach. While that beach had nice water and sand, it was inconvenient.
- The pools were not well-maintained; the water was dirty and cloudy, and there were only 4 to 6 lounge chairs available—definitely not enough for a resort of this size.
- There was no nightlife whatsoever; everything shut down by 10 PM.
- Most of the restaurants were subpar. Even breakfast and lunch made Starbucks seem gourmet. Zen was decent, but our order was frequently misunderstood, making for unexpected meals, though they were fresh and tasty.
- Wi-Fi was unreliable, working only about 10% of the time, and the gym was outdated and in poor condition.
- We noticed stray cats roaming the grounds.
- Check-in took forever, and we didn’t get our room until after 4 PM.
- Management displayed a lack of care and often spoke down to guests.
While we cherish our memories of Barbados, we have no intention of returning to The Crane Resort. We’d recommend exploring options on the West Coast instead."
"Excellent hotel for business travel. Great buffet breakfast and spaces for working. The 24 hour, well equipped gym is a big plus! Well located with good access to main Govt and corporate offices in island."
