I was not on this sight for the past week because I went on a 'Staycation' at a hotel called Barbados Beach Club located on Maxwell Coast Road Christ Church.

I read reviews on this hotel on trip advisor and before I went was a little apprehensive but still excited!
Some of you may recall a question that I asked earlier this year about a reaosnable hotel to take my mom to in December...well I ended up choosing Barbados Beach Club and I took her there for a week last week into this week and we simply enjoyed it to the fullest!!
This hotel is situated on a beautiful beachfront and has a nice air to it(it feels good)...by the way, this hotel is owned by a Bajan couple.
When I first went to look at it before taking my mom I was in awe at what I saw...you see this resort is a 3 * resort but the truth is that you get ALOT for a resort that is 3* and I wonder if the onwer even understands what a real gem he has on his hands!
It is an all inclusive resort...so much is included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Afternoon tea, unlimited drinks and lots more. The staff are excellent and make you feel really wlecomed and comfortable especially Michelle from the restaurant.
Now you see the thing that is incredible even more about this resort is the price...they have a LOCAL price that is very overwhelming: US80 per person per room which works out to BDS$158.40 per person and believe it or not that is for any view room...Ocean view included...now where on this island can you get an ocean view room on an all inclusive package for that price?? Trust me when I tell you no where because I called lots of hotels.
The rooms come with the things that 4* hotels come with which again was suprising for the price. There is 24/7 security on site and someone is alwasy at the front desk. There are 3 restaurants on site and the main one is the buffet one and the other two a la carte are seafood and the other is Italian(The buffet one is opened every day but not the a la carte ones). I have met people from the Caribbean there: Trinidad and all over and styaing there has been very relaxing for me and my mom and the other locals that we saw there as well.
The exercise room(gym) is pretty basic...Treadmills, exercise bicycles, weights of all sizes, a pull thingy that had weights on it and two other things I didnt know what they were lol.
Most of the staff at the restaurant are genuinely nice and VERY accomadating with you and you felt very comfortable dinning in their presence...I cant help saying that this place is a wonderful resort that is undiscovered right here in our very own Barbados.
The special local price that I told you guys about goes up to December 15th,2009 and from December 16th,2009 the price is US90 per perosn per room which workes out to BDS$178.20 per person per room.
Now I wanted to share this with the locals here on this site because it is a shame that we tend to end up paying loads of money to resorts that offer the same things and sometimes less than what this resort is offering because we dont know about it. Perosns from overseas go to this resort and enjoy and we should not let only them enjoy it because it is right here at out back door.
I also think that th 'Staycation' packages offered in the paper is a joke!! Those places dont offer all inclusive and are pretty costly to me and Mango Bay has joined them and is offering US200 a night all inclusive which is still more than Barbados Beach Club...but any way I dont mean to fly up in anyones face about the ones in the paper.
We all deserve a vacation..Check out Barbadoa Beach Club!!
