Let's start with the positive: stunning Atlantic views, a beautiful rugged beach, picturesque pool with an ocean backdrop, there's even a small rainforest behind the hotel. The internet worked great in our room, as well as the air-conditioning. The bed was comfortable. Quite an ensemble of new and old wood tables and closets in our room as well. Unfortunately the...

We are the most patient, forgiving and understanding travelers around. This property should be condemned. How dare they post such pictures on their web site. We would be too embarrassed to list the horrendous short comings and sanitary lapses observed and smelled in our guestroom. More

I am usually very understanding in difficult situations. However, this hotel needs to be demolished. The pictures you see online does not represent it's current condition. It's run down and out dated. This was my first visit to Barbados and overall my impression was negative, not only of the hotel, but the Island. For an Island that generates it's revenue... More

The New Edgewater Hotel in St. Joseph Parish is set high on a cliff edge and overlooks the Atlantic Ocean. The scenes and views of the Atlantic are magnificent as are the view of Joes River and a Rainforest which are both literally next door to the hotel. We often saw little green monkeys and wild Mongoose running around outside... More

Just got back to the uk after a 10 day stay at the New Edgewater. Once you realise that this hotel is a lot cheaper than most in Barbados you can appreciate what you are getting. We arrived in the dark on a monday evening ,and our first thoughts were what have we done. Our room was clean enough but... More

I am sorry it's taken me so very long to rate this place, it wasn't really fair to the hotel. Location: It's on the east coast, so there are great waves and, if you're into dangerous surfing, this is the place. OR, as with us, if you love to watch surfing, this is a great place, bring your binoculars. You'll... More

My husband and I stayed here for the second time. The first time was about 9 years ago and honestly I think the place was better back then. My husband surfs so we stay for half our trip on this side of the island so he can surf soup bowls. Thank god I was smart and booked this for the... More

I stayed here in December for 4 nights. I read the reviews about the staff but I am always open minded and didn't think it would matter too much as I am usually out of the hotel most of the day anyway. BUT...the staff were so rude, unhelpful, unwilling to assist with anything - it was the worst place I... More

My husband and I have recently spent 8 nights at the New Edgewater Hotel. Everyone there was most friendly and offered suggestions about buses and places to eat up the beach etc. Erica, the receptionist, was particularly helpful. As other people have commented there is a lot of work needed on the hotel but the owners ( who we met)... More
