“Loved my time there!”
This resort was great. The food was excellent. I was actually expecting a lot worse because I knew all-inclusive places don't usually have the greatest. The breakfast wasn't amazing, but it was satisfactory. Lunch and Dinner were pretty superb. The staff was the best part about the resort. Most people were extremely friendly, especially if you made an effort. My group tried to talk to anyone waiting on us, and it really paid off. We got to know some of the people quite will considering we were only there for five days. The actual resort was gorgeous too. The beach was right there, and after visiting the other Almond resorts, we liked ours the best. Ours didn't have a huge beach, but it was sufficient and never extremely crowded. The resort was big enough, but not huge and overwhelming. The Almond Beach Club did not have a sand beach, and had a lot of grass around the pools. The Almond Beach Village was gorgeous and had tons of beach space, but it was almost too big. It was very nice walking around and pools popping up everywhere, but I felt like I would get lost. The upside to the other resorts is the areas around them seemed to be nicer. The area around ours was a bit run-down, although we did not venture much off the resort. We definitely hope to return to the Almond Casuarina if we can!
“Best vacation ever”
Beautiful scenery and beaches. The food was execellent and service was great. The staff was very warm and friendly and went beyond their duty to assist you in every possible way.
“Return in a heartbeat...”
The Almond Casuarina is an excellent resort. The staff are friendly (esp. the bartenders!), the food is great, and the grounds are beautiful. The restaurants are open air, so for those of you who aren't fans of birds (i.e. scared of) this may not be the place for you as they're frequently flying through. If you want to be as close as possible to all the hotel's restaurants/pools book an ocean view room, but be warned that if you want to be in bed early, the night entertainment can be a little loud.
“Almond Casuarina is fantastic!”
My family and I just returned from a week at the almond Casuarina, and it was everything we had hoped for and more. Upon arrival, you are greeted with a cold towel and drink, which sets the tone for the entire experience. The staff are friendly and helpful, any request we made was attended to quickly, and the food was excellent. The rooms were clean and comfortable (although standard bland hotel decor, not very exotic or Caribbean). The cool, quiet garden paths on the way to the rooms are a wonderful retreat from the sun & surf at the beach. The beach is beautiful, white sand. The only complaint we had was the wind and surf was strong enough that there were yellow and red flags on the beach (caution and no swimming) most days. But it was great for my teenagers to body-surf, and we took the free shuttle to the Almond Beach Club or Almond Beach Village, and snorkeled and sailed there. We used a complimentary room at the Beach Village to shower and dress for dinner, and we felt the rooms were much nicer at the Casuarina. It was great to have the restaurants and resources of three resorts as part of our all-inclusive vacation. We would highly recommend the Almond Casuarina, we can't wait to go back!
“Very surprised!”
So here's the thing. We arrived at the hotel really early as we were just transitioning from a cruise. I was totally surprised when we were escorted to breakfast. After breakfast we chilled on the beach with the assistance of the staff when we explained that we were early and didn't yet have a room. They stored our carry-on luggage, provided us with beach towels and away we went, happy to lounge while waiting for our room. All of that is really great but here comes the best part. Our flight was leaving at 5 pm. So we had a lot of time between checking out and leaving for the airport. When we spoke to Nicole in reception, she invited us to stay for lunch and use all of the facilities until we needed to leave. This was a 'wow' moment! I've never had this experience before - fantastic service!!
“unique place”
Quiet spot in the middle of the action. Beautiful semi-tropical forest setting. Comfortable room, excellent bed, service is fine. White sand beach. Many young families. Also some on social security. Mostly Americans, but also lots of Brits.
“A Garden Paradise”
Eight acres of well maintained gardens separate the various buildings of this "English" style hotel. Our balcony looked out into this tropical scene each breakfast. Small, but well equipped kitchens allowed quick meals, with twenty first class restaurants within a 10 - 15 minute walk (very safe, night or day). Lots of kids here, so often a bit noisy. All employees are very well organized and friendly. Activities galore are scheduled, or just sit on the beach (plenty of lounge chairs and pads, no need to quibble over territorial rights).
“Great Hotel, was so sad to leave”
Just back from a great stay at the Almond Casuarina. It's a great value All Inclusive. I think some of the other reviews here are out of date as the rooms we stayed in had everything we required and were extremely comfortable and well appointed. There were no ongoing rennovations. The food was great - one night in Enids (caribbean style restaurant) we had the best lamb ever (and we come from a country with some of the best lamb in the world). The breakfast was also good with a huge choice and cook to order omelettes etc. The sea has high waves and it's fun to jump them but it's tough to swim in such rough sea. We really enjoyed the free courtesy bus (with a great driver who acted like a tour guide to the Island) to the Almond Village resort on the West Coast where the sea is flat calm and you can participate in even more watersports as well as having dinner in their restaurants etc (although you need to book some of them in advance). The resort drinks are great too, especially blended cocktails like the Almond Cooler! But even for standard drinks it was Gordons Gin, Smirnoff etc and the local Banks beer. We found the staff friendly and helpful whenever we were looking for advice, taxis booked etc All in all a great stay and we will return!
“friendly,efficient,and booking in again next year”
Hello, bet you are wondering what the truth is about Hotel Almond Casuarina. Read on: First and foremost management along with management staff is very important for the smooth and efficient running of any hotel, and I have to congratulate General manager also assistant manager and the management team for doing just that. Very approachable and understanding and above all......Fantastic people. My stay within the the Casuarina is one that will be with me for the rest of my life. The warm welcome when you arrive stays with you throughout your stay. Lush tropical Gardens and beautiful beach underneath a blanket of blue sky and the friendliness of all the restaurant and bar staff, kind and happy people working very hard to make you feel special. The room was efficient and comfortable with en/suite, A/C a must in Barbados. I must admit it is a breath of fresh air going to your room after a day of meltdown knowing your A/C is on for your comfort. The room service is excellent, staff are always making you laugh should you bump in to them. Evening live entertainment is available throughout the hotel bars. The music is excellent from the sounds of the Carribean to mainstream allowing for personal request and involvement. Drinks come in all shapes and sizes Regards the food having had all inclusive in the past the Hotel Almond Casaurina cuisine was outstanding,wholesome,nutricious and above all well presented. I be back! Jtbx
“Almond Resorts Continue To Impress.”
My wife and I spent a week at the Almond Casuarina and were very happy with our stay. Our vacation began with the friendly Almond staff greeting us with smiles, cold face towels, and cold rum punch. Our room, which overlooked the ocean, was simple, but large, very clean, and had a comfortable bed. Also, the bathroom was up-to-date and clean. The beach was beautiful, the staff friendly, the food very tasty, and drinks plentyful and always cold and refreshing. This was our second visit to an Almond Resort and will definitely be back again!
