Best beach club in Barbados! Shame we only found out about it a few days before flying home. If you want great sunset view, dancing away and cool crowd, look nowhere further

It's a nice spot. The grounds are very well kept and the mini Portuguese fountain is very cool. The service I'd say is plain OK. When we got here, no one showed us around, ushered us in or discussed the menu. We figured out that you'd have to go to the bar to order drinks. The bartender was engaging. Our drinks were delicious, very well made and well presented. There were a couple mosquitoes bugging us at the table. The music & vibe were both excellent. Overall, it was not bad. Only a couple pointers for improvement.

A beautiful place in a beautiful setting right on the sea front with stunning views, especially when the sun is setting, calming feel and food and staff attentive. Enjoy the vibe here. One of our favourite places! Thank you. Jamie & James.

We enjoyed a very lovely sunset drink here meeting up with a local friend. Wish we'd found it earlier in our holiday. Very relaxed and clean, friendly owners. Fab dog too! Access to the beach with sunbeds, umbrellas and easy slope into the sea. Would definitely come back.
