Silver Sands Vacation Packages

This is an alright place. It’s showing its age a little however the staff is very kind. The pool area and ocean area are quite nice also.

We loved the property. We have been to Barbados before and therefore understood the geography of where the East Resort is located. We stayed in a one bedroom villa. I’m not sure that the listing is comprehensive enough. The villa is beautiful, spacious, with lots of amenities in the room. The kitchen has a microwave, washing machine, tumble dryer, hot plate and fridge freezer. They leave you sugar, tea, coffee, milk, washing up liquid. The bathroom is beautiful. Shower no bath. Double sinks, separate toilet. Four poster bed. Outside is a barbecue, they supply you with briquettes. Table with comfy chairs on the patio also armchairs and two loungers. They supply towels for the bathroom and Beach. My recommendation would be to get breakfast included. We booked through hotels.com. And had this included. We ordered the night before and it was delivered either at 8:30 or 10 am timings to suit you. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. Staff were lovely. There are some things you need to be aware about that we couldn’t find details on before we left and trying to make contact with the hotel was difficult as they did not respond to emails. East is remote. You do need a car. The nearest supermarket is half an hour away. Driving in Barbados is not easy, especially at night time. The roads are poor. There are no sidewalks so you often come across people walking on the road unexpectedly. However, in situ we had no complaints about the staff, they were helpful and efficient.

Didn’t clean up the rooms, very slow during dining/at the bar. Staff are very nice and friendly but it feels they move at “island time” and not doing laundry some days was not a good look when you need new towels and have to wait multiple hours.
