Long Bay Vacations

Enjoyed every bit of my stay at Ecolifestyle lodge. WiIshed we stayed a little longer. Staff was extremely accommodating. It was peaceful and safe. The views from our room (soup bowl) was breath taking. And listening to the ocean waves and breeze in the morning was everything. If you like low key and chill vibes. This is the place to stay.

Lovely boutique hotel. Friendly staff, restaurant on property and a central pool. The rooms were nice and spacious, with mini fridge and a microwave. It is bit off the beaten track, but I like that. You would need private transportation to get around.

Our butlers, Pierre and Kaleifa, were extremely helpful and pleasant. Overall, most of the staff were very welcoming, especially Danielle, Krystal, Nicholi, and Chad. The resort itself is gorgeous. The rooms are beautiful, and honestly, the pictures do them no justice. However, given the size of the property, I feel it would be better classified as a boutique hotel. It is very small compared with the average Royalton property. The welcome gift was a small bottle of rum. We are accustomed to receiving the Royalton totes, tumblers, and some type of resort memorabilia, so we were a little disappointed that there wasn't more of a welcome experience. As a Caribbean couple traveling to a Caribbean resort in Barbados, we were also expecting more of a genuine Bajan experience. Unfortunately, the resort felt very geared toward European and Anglo visitors. There was no strong sense of originality or local culture that made us feel like we were truly experiencing Barbados. The outside activities were also limited in variety, Some of the prices seemed quite high, such as $60 USD for only 15 minutes of jet skiing. The food options were generic, with the typical Italian, Asian, steakhouse selections. Although the resort advertises 13 restaurants, they operate on a rotation schedule, so only about 2-3 may actually be open at any given time. Breakfast was another issue. If you're not an early riser, by around 10:30 a.m. there'll be only scraps. Though nice I wouldn't come back.
