We were there as students just after the intervention--in Grenada. My husband was an off shore medical student at the time. We had lived on Grenada & because of the intervention were offered Miami or Barbados for the next semester--or more--we didn't know. Who would take Miami? Alot of students did. A small 50 families/students were adventurous enough to give... more

We visited Ocean Blue (an apartment in Glitter Bay) during October half term. The former hotel is now all privately owned apartments. About the apartment what can I say? – having viewed photographs of Ocean Blue on the internet my expectations of the apartment were high – I wasn’t disappointed! Ocean Blue more than exceeded all my expectations and is... more

Glitter Bay was closed for refurbishment during 2005. Its now back to its former glory. All of the Fairmont owned units have been totally refurbished and many sold to individual owners. Whilst the property is no longer managed by the Fairmont Group it is possible to book through smaller letting agents (e.g. Barbados Villa Services), and its well worth it.... more

The one problem there has always been is that, other than families with small children, no-one eats at the hotel at night. The food is excellent but the atmosphere zero. This time no-one... more

My husband and I and our 11month old daughter stayed here and at the 'sister' property, The Royal Pavillion,at the end of June this year and I must say that relative to the amazingly positive reviews we have read for both properties we were very disappointed. Firstly I hope it is helpful to give some context: we have travelled a... more

After a terrible start to our holiday, we were transfered from Almond Beach Village to Fairmont Glitter Bay and were delighted with what met our eyes on the first morning. I have never known staff so willing and helpful with always a friendly smile and attitude towards guests and their work. We had originally planned to get married at Almond... more

My wife and I spent 5 nights in the Venitian Room at the Beach House at the Fairmont Glitter Bay resort over the 2004 Memorial Day weekend and had a fabulous time. I highly recommend the Beach House. It is beachfront and is separated from the ocean by a picturesque tree-lined retaining wall and a few rows of coral rocks.... more
