The location was beautiful, well kept and just a short stroll from the beach. I love how the staff was warm and helpful without trying to sell you anything at every turn. We had a small problem with the toilet in our room when we first arrived, but they quickly switched us to a different room the same night. The grounds were well kept, and the facilities were immaculate. We’ve already decided that we will return next year.

The room was very comfortable for our 16-night stay. The kitchen had the necessary equipment and appliances. Requests were responded to rather quickly, most times. Heather, our Divi Angel was pleasant, friendly, courteous and kind, and she was swift to act. Most of the room attendants were polite.

We were in Room 421; the room directly above ours always sounded like guests were moving out and dragging furniture all day and night.

Hotel is well-placed on the bus route, and close to Oistins Fish Fry, supermarkets, restaurants, pharmacies and shopping. Oh...the beach.

We had breakfast at Pure Ocean Restaurant, great food! Excellent service!

Worth every penny! Price was very affordable.

The rooms were clean and the hotel staff and restaurant staff were very friendly. Nothing short of good service. They made our stay very comfortable. The rooms are well equipped with microwave, stove and everything needed to prepare meals while on vacation. We didn't use most of the amenities that were available but there are a lot of amenities and activities available at the resort and tours can also be organized through the resort. The location is ideal for vacation life as it's near St Lawrence Gap and Hastings. There are a lot of good restaurants close by and beaches as well. I will definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in Barbados. The rooms are well equipped with microwave, stove and everything needed to prepare meals while on vacation.

The pool was always clean and amazing. met a lot of great people there I will be back very soon. Everything in the area is walking distance to eat to try new things. I love the restaurant across the street called pure Ocean. They have everything that you would love especially their run punch. It is amazing. So please if you are thinking of a short trip and don’t really need the car life experience take a trip to divi Southwinds Barbados, and you will have nothing to regret.

Great size pool with activities like tennis, basketball and mini golf to do. The location of the property was within the St. Lawerence Gap that had many restaurants and bars to choose from and enjoy and evening out. All within walking distance from behind the hotel. I would recommend this property if your looking for a comfortable and affordable stay.

Hébergement sous forme de suite avec kitchenette, tout équipée, endroit sécuritaire et très propre. Le personnel était agréable et accueillant. Le remplacement des serviettes se faisait chaque jour, accessibilité à des serviettes de plage à l’aide de carte remise par le Resort. Il y a 3 piscines, jardin, endroit de jeux pour les enfants, salle de gym… L’endroit est beau, dans un quartier animé en soirée, des petits commerces sont disponibles, des restaurants également. L’hôtel n’offre pas la possibilité d’un tout inclus, mais il y a des restaurants qui servent le petit déjeuner, le dîner et le souper, paiement à moyen de cartes seulement aucun cash n’est accepté par le Resort. La seule chose à laquelle je ne m’y attendais pas, ce fut la plage qui n’est pas très praticable, il fallait se déplacer aux alentours comme à Bridgetown pour avoir accès de meilleures plages avec eaux turquoises. Il y a des frais pour cela mais ce n’est pas cher avec les commodités offertes.

The room was exactly what we hoped for. Clean with lots of space for our family of 4. Beds were comfortable and the kitchenette was a nice amenity since we were able to get a few groceries from the nearby convenience stores. The property is well maintained and the 3 pools were nice. Only downside is that the pool bar/restaurant is not open so the only place to eat on the property is Pure Ocean which is on the beach. The food there is good, but pricey, and service was rather slow.
The sea was too rough for swimming while we were there. I would recommend checking out other beaches further up the west coast for calm, clear water.
Overall we enjoyed our time there and would definitely stay again.

This resort was perfect for a family of four. The resort was accessible and convenient to all tourist areas on the island. The staff were very helpful, respectful and accommodating. The resort has its own restaurant called Pure Ocean which was very convenient as well. Unfortunately, not all activities were available due to shortage of occupancy during the month of May. But during the high peak seasons, they open up more of their daily activities on the resort. I will definitely stay again with kids or without.

I was disappointed that there weren’t more dining options at the resort. There was only one restaurant & the service was extremely slow. The staff wasn’t attentive to guests. In addition, there weren’t many activities for guests. I was told that May is the slow season. But, I do feel that more could’ve been done to make the stay nicer. I also didn’t like the fact that the room was only cleaned twice over a nine-day period.

Overall the resort is an excellent value. The location is perfect and we loved the three pools especially the one by the ocean. The property is not fancy but everything is in good working order, clean, and maintained well. The only caution I have about the property is while they call it a resort, somethings like cleaning are not full service. They only clean on set days per week and on our five days that meant the day after we arrived was our only opportunity to get our room cleaned. Other days they just do trash and towels. And the only thing they replenish is toilet paper. If you ask for anything else, they direct you to purchase it at their store. These aren’t big things but important to factor if you’re staying there.

I had a great stay at this hotel in Barbados and would definitely recommend it, especially for travelers looking for something comfortable and affordable.
The location is very convenient—about 15–20 minutes from the airport—and check-in was quick and easy. We arrived early and were welcomed with complimentary drinks at the pool bar, which was a nice touch.
The property is clean and well-maintained, with a nice pool area, on-site shopping, and a restaurant. The beach is just a short walk away, and there’s also a restaurant right on the beach. It’s also within walking distance to St. Lawrence Gap for food, shopping, and entertainment.
The rooms are set up like apartments, with full kitchens and private balconies. Everything was clean and comfortable, making it a great option for longer stays.
The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. While a few housekeeping staff weren’t as pleasant, it didn’t impact the overall experience.
This is a solid mid-range option price wise—older, but well-kept—and a great value compared to more expensive resorts.

Good room with a comfortable bed (not so comfortable fold-out couch, it was ok for kids), excellent air con, basic kitchen. Spacious grounds with nice swimming pools (in particular the beach-side pool was wonderful), mini golf and tennis were lots of fun. Location is excellent.

Only complaint would be, and it's a small complaint, that the property felt very quiet, almost like it was fully off season (despite it being easter and school holidays!) there was never any music by the pool, no pool side vibes. If you are looking for a lively place, this is not it. But for quiet and restful (with easy access to other restaurants and bars) it's perfect.

It’s in the details from booking to check in to the room. Extending the booking by two days took weeks of back and forth calls consisting of conflicting information, un-responded to voicemails and emails, dropped calls, transferring back and forth between persons, wildly different pricing - finally on the 8th attempt and pleading for help I got through.

The check in guy watched my wife get the trolley herself and rather than help us load it with our bags he suggested that we pack the trolley in a different way then walked off. He wasn’t rude and he thought he was helping but just didn’t realize that this was not real help.

The cleaning service doesn’t make the bed. The thermostat didn’t work so the room was very hot. The breakfast was extremely expansive for something very basic. They ran out of beach towels one day etc etc.

Everyone is pleasant and helpful otherwise, it’s just clear that it’s a three star type place.

Hotel check in was quick & easy. There was no shower head in our room so Patrick went to get one & fitted it straight away. We asked for a mattress topper for the sofabed which was brought to us straight away & was very comfortable.
Most staff are friendly & polite.
Room was a great size with a separate bedroom, really comfortable huge bed, a full kitchen, fridge freezer with ice machine. Microwave, coffee maker. We cooked a full Christmas dinner for 7 people in the room & had everything we needed. Air con was great. Room was cleaned twice a week. Towels, toilet roll & bins changed daily.
Hotel was very clean & had very well kept gardens. The gardeners were very friendly.
Enjoyed playing mini golf on site.
It was nice having security at both entrances to the property. Always found a parking space.
WiFi was good most of the time.
First time staying at Divi Southwinds & we’d happily stay there again.
Fantastic location with The Gap on the doorstep - lots of eateries, souvenirs for sale, convenience stores. You don’t need a car here but we had one as we like to travel the island & visit friends & family.
It was both my husbands & my birthday & we were gifted a bottle of bubbly each with champagne flutes & a piece of cake & a card. Absolutely lovely & we didn’t expect it, so that was a lovely touch. We were also given boxes of chocolates for Christmas.
We ate at Pure Ocean restaurant on the beach. Seafood boil was lovely. Beach is beautiful with lots of sun loungers.
