Southern Palms was magical again! The service was top rate, the food and musical entertainment great and the pools clean and immaculate as usual! The mini-golf tournaments on Friday are so much fun... there is a scorekeeper from the hotel and the prizes for winners which is such a nice touch! We saw turtle eggs buried in the sand and... More

Southern Palms has an old colonial feel to it - the rooms are dated and could even be called a little shabby. The bar area looks like it hasn't changed since the '70s. Despite the slightly run down image the hotel has character. It is set on a fantastic beach. the staff are friendly. Every time we've visited (and we... More

This was my first visit to Barbados and I was very disapointed with this hotel. Fantastic beach but the hotel has no soul. Rooms are dated and in need of a makeover. did not eat in the hotel so cannot comment on food. Bar area dull even with live music. my first and last visit to this hotel

If you don't want to... More

I arrived in Barbados on the 23rd of May 2013 from Washington DC...I put this trip together for my sister, my daughter, and two friends. I had never traveled to Barbados before and I did not know what to expect with regard to the lodging I has selected for the group. When the car service pulled up to the hotel,... More

Southern Palms is situated on one of the best beaches on the island, an uncrowded wide expanse of beach where we didn't get overly pestered by hawkers. Our room was clean, in my opinion the air conditioning could have been more powerful which would have in turn made our stay more comfortable. Only ate in the restaurant once for breakfast... More

We have just returned from what was our eigth visit to Barbados and once again the trip was both fantastic and a total relaxation. We stayed in Southern Palms for the fifth time and it was just as good as when we first stayed there in 1997, in fact some of the staff are still the same and still just... More
