My wife and I stayed here May 2009. We upgraded to an ocean front deluxe room but probably should have saved the money. Rooms are not any bigger than the standard, the view is better, just make sure that you get a second or third floor room. The bushes on the bottom floor block everything. We had problems with the bathroom electrical outlet, the cold water knob in the shower/tub was very hard to turn and the hot water did not regulate correctly. The shower Water pressure was very low. Also, there was a very bad smell in one of the closets (something rotted). The electrical outlet was fixed on our third night but the water regulation was not fixed, even after talking to the manager. The reception staff in the lobby are very unfriendly and always on the offensive. Service in the restraunts is very slow expect to be there 2 to 3 hours. One night people were sitting for hours and were never served because of a staffing issue. People complained and recieved free drinks. We went somewhere else to eat. The beach area in front of hotel is small but bigger than other hotels on the west coast. Beach area is not very clean, cigarette butts everywhere. Beach water is beautiful and there is some corral there for snorkeling and seeing some fish. Beach vendors are a constant bother from morning until evening. The only good thing is that you can walk a short distance down the beach and swim with the sea turtles in front of St. James. The west coast is very hot and there is no breeze. We would not stay here again. Recommend staying towards the southern end of the island at the Crane or Hilton.

The location was perfect, overlooking a beautiful beach with plenty of nearby bars and restaurants. The room was very clean and well maintained throughout our stay. The staff was friendly and fast to help with any needs. The food was excellent, with a wide variety of menu choices throughout the week. When visiting Barbados next time, I will definitely stay at Tamarind Cove again.
