On vacation my husband I like to relax, eat well and do nothing. We did just that in Barbados staying at The House. The rooms are nice and the online descriptions and pictures are actually the reality when you arrive. We loved the personal attention received through ambassadors vs. traditional hotel setups. The included breakfast is quite tasty featuring classic continental fare but also local dishes and an egg station where omelets or egg benedict are prepared. We loved the daily tea time (being from America this is not a typical activity) and the assorted treats that accompanied it. The staff are awesome. Very professional, accommodating and friendly! During our stay were invited to the Managers Cocktail Party and it was nicely done. the hors d'oeuvres were excellent. Be careful with the rum punch! ;) Its a small (34 rooms) adult-only hotel, which we prefer, so it was very quiet but guests were friendly. We appreciated not having an A/I plan so that we could sample the local restaurants. It can be pricey but its worth it the cost. The only cons: 1.beaches in Barbados are public access so you would get a few pesky/persistent local vendors trying to sell a tour or jewelry or jet-ski ride. 2. the complimentary jet lag massage was at best 5 on a 1-10 scale but hey its complimentary. we tipped anyway and 3.the vacation had to come to an end. WE WOULD DEFINITELY STAY HERE AGAIN and PLAN ON IT!

We had a wonderful time at Waves Hotel and Spa. The food was excellent, the staff was friendly and made us feel welcome, and the amenities were superb. Highly recommend this hotel. Get the ocean view room, it is worth it!
