Ashtown Hotels

"We went there for the snorkeling and stayed for the people. It was so amazing! The rooms were great, the people were so kind and accommodating, and property is incredible! The food was great! There was a menu of similar food every meal, but then there was the daily menu change. It was perfect for my significant other who stuck with the same meal, while I like to change things up. The staff is so amazing. I cannot say enough good things about them whether is was checking in our our room, during dining, dancing and joking, or excursions. They are kind and take the time for you. To share one of many examples, security (Austin) came up to us after snorkeling just to ask what we saw. They were all engaging. There is so much history, scenic views, and wildlife on the island to around the island. you can find tortoises, iguanas, hermit crabs, and so much more before you even walk into the water. The island is quiet and secluded and that is why you go. It can be difficult getting there and returning (recommend and overnight in Barbados on either end of your trip), but the quietness, nature, and exemplary staff is unparalleled. As for the other guests, we always came together for dinner to talk about our days and share our stories of the octopus or squid we saw that day. It was almost a community of guests which was very refreshing since there were so few of us. Can actually have conversations and build relationships of people around you. Highly recommended."
