Reviews for The House by Elegant Hotels

Service excellence at its best

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

This will be a long review. Starting with management. Jason Jordan and Nadia Shockness are assets to this organization. From the time we arrived we felt appreciated and loved. Everything was in place to make our anniversary and my husband’s birthday an exceptional experience. The staff from housekeeping to food service displayed excellent service. The food was excellent. The surprises in our room were beautiful. Turn down service every night we stayed. As well as an extremely clean room. The amenities were really great. Stacy in the spa did an excellent job with our massages. Congratulations on a job well done.

Wonderful boutique, Adults Only, all inclusive hotel with White Lotus vibes

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 weeks ago

The House is a wonderful boutique, Adults Only, all inclusive hotel with White Lotus vibes located on the desirable west/platinum coast of Barbados. The staff members were kind, friendly, and attentive. The pools were small, but refreshing. Snorkeling right off the beach was amazing the further you went away from shore. The bar kept drinks flowing. We went during the down (wet) season so there weren't many guests which was perfect for us. The only cons were the Italian restaurant on site was closed for major (demolished) renovations. In addition, four of the seven "sister" hotels that you can go to as part of the all inclusive benefits were also closed for renovations. The Bonvoy website did not mention these closures. One day we took the water taxi to the family friendly The Waves hotel (a sister hotel) for a few hours to ride jet skis and have drinks. We were very thankful we stayed at The House which is a more luxurious resort. The House is simply a fantastic place to stay while in Barbados!

Wonderful Holiday

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

My partner and I stayed at The House in July, and oh boy are we glad we did. From the minute we walked through the arched entrance we were met with a view of the Caribbean Sea and quickly greeted by Shanae and Jason. From this point it was clear this was going to be an excellent holiday. The room was beautiful, spacious and spotlessly clean with fantastic sea views. The hotel has a fantastic atmosphere relaxed, informal and friendly with the staff continually looking after you with drinks, ice cream, cold towels, fresh fruit to name a few. Breakfast was buffet (quality buffet) with a la carte for lunch & dinner - all the meals were excellent. The setting is wonderful but it’s the staff that make a real difference, all of them from gardeners, maintenance, housekeeping, bar, restaurant, spa, front of house and management, yes a long list but they are all great and make a real difference. Special mention to Wade and Andrew who made us laugh on a daily basis and Shanae at front of house for everything, especially for finding us the perfect sunset cruise. Finally, Jason who went above and beyond to make our holiday truly special. We are already planning our next visit. Thank you.

Best Service!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

Where to begin!!! My partner and I needed a get away, he booked The House Elegant because the reviews where the best of places we looked at. All I can say is it exceeded our expectations! Sheena!!!!! Sheena!!! Sheena!!! When you arrive ask for Sheena and give her a hug for me! Outstanding service, preferences she did not forget ( none of the staff did) Wade, Nadia, Agnes, Andrew just above and beyond. The good was consistent, delicious and seasoned well, which is very difficult to achieve in a resort with so many different palates from all over the world. The resort is clean, views are fabulous and the intimacy allows you the ability to get to know the other guests and relax. We will definitely be back, if I did not mention you. Know that we appreciate all the staff! Simply Chefs Kiss!

Fabulous……. Look forward to returning after our unfortunate timing. Jason is a true professional and very understanding. He fixed our issue. Beach shoes required as a bit stoney after the storm washed sand away but you can’t do much about that. Staff are brilliant, food and drink delicious.
