Reviews for Emerald Ridge Guest House

Review 1:The breakfast was really simple and took forever to come - island time. Our room was adequate but plain with no view, and the pool's not inviting, but most people would come for the beach. Somehow we were charmed by the place.

Review 2:It's a small island guesthouse run by warm, friendly people who took good care of us. We flew in the night before embarking on a cruise ship so didn't spend much time there. It's the kind of place where each person who drove us or checked us in introduced him or herself, and the breakfast waitress gave us a hug.

Review 3:See above

Review 4:Beds good; staff great ; room noisy with generators; power went out so no air con for hours; dead cockroach sitting beside bathroom sink; location in dodgy residential area with no shops and I was told not to go out.

Review 5:The pool needs improvements,the room did not get clean on the 4 day. Light fixture needs to be fix.mats on the floor needs to be change. We had to ask for toilet paper. The fridge did not work properly.

Review 6:It was very quiet. They had someone meet me seeing that I was lost.

Review 7:The pool was dirty. The room was cleaned in the beginning and they changed the towels every day, but later during the stay they did not do anything of this at all. Apparently the property is for sale...

Review 8:The staff is very friendly and the room was big. There is a shuttle to town.

Review 9:I cannot think of any negative to report.

Review 10:The guest house was comfortable, I had everything that I wish to have at my fingertips, the guest ensured that I had all that I needed to ensure that my stay was comfortable

Review 11:Not a thing

Review 12:The facilities were very clean and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They were willing to advise me on whatever I asked and provided taxi services that is extremely reliable. I will definitely return if I ever come to barbados again..I felt at home

Review 13:Properly location, I rented a car, it's hard to find this property on map's and my GPS, some of the street's do not exist and them that do are not marked!

Review 14:Everything

Review 15:The staff was excellent. Especially the Reception staff. The taxi driver was so accommodating and made one feel at home. Relaxing quiet environment just loved it. The room was spacious, clean & most of all very comfortable and of course Free WIFI in room. A pool is available for use also, liked that too. I felt I knew the staff upon entering the facility since they all made me feel so at home. Will definitely keep it on my list of places to stay in Barbados

Review 16:The outside areas like the pool and bar area could use a little more sprucing up. Saw old doors/boards leaned up against the fence. Looked a little tacky

Review 17:The staff was very pleasant, friendly, helpful and accommodating. They were available to answer any questions and offer suggestions in terms of food and where to go and what to do. It was like staying with family members or friends overseas but with more privacy and flexible to do what you want :-)

Review 18:The area was very bad the breakfast was poor the utensils were not very clean, there was no such thing as room service and the location was the worst. The taxi was basically a broken down vehicle which desperately needed servicing. The phone in the room was from the 1700'S. The cable box had a lot of issues which lead to me using my laptop most of the time to watch tv.

Review 19:Well I liked my room.

Review 20:Couldn't seem to access the hot water for a shower. No access to a hair dryer, so if you have problem hair, you are out of luck as far as styling goes!

Review 21:Compared to the cost of other locations in Barbados, this was decent value for your money. Their shuttle service is a plus!!

Review 22:Over all I love the place the staff that work there I felt like I was home every one was amazing , it's was sad to leave I will recommend any one to this guest house it's was worth every penny great job

Review 23:So you don't have the best good or the best hotel, but we came for the people and the location! Service was amazing. Hotel was comfortable and clean. We spent the majority of time in a rental car (reserved by the lovely staff) and it was amazing! We will definitely be back since we got engaged here! Definitely felt like family!

Review 24:Unfortunately I had a very short stay at Emerald Ridge as a stop-over visitor en route to (one night) and from (one night) Dominica. My stay was therefore very limited. I needed somewhere relatively close to the airport and it was, but was far within a residential community, making it difficult to easily get to the main road and other areas, although a shuttle service is provided.

Review 25:Enjoyed the general ambiance and homely comfortable feel of the environment. It was aesthetically pleasing and warm. Also enjoyed and appreciated the free wireless internet service, especially as a business traveler. I enjoyed the front desk hospitality and the airport shuttle service that proved quite efficient and hospitable. I'm sorry I was just a stop-over visitor and so didn't have the time to fully utilize the facilities.

Review 26:I did not like the fact that the water pressure was so low!! I hardly had water to bathe properly. I hate that the power in my room went off three times and only in my room it seemed! It was also a bit noisy.

Review 27:I liked the room it was clean and comfortable. I also liked the balcony although the view was just of houses.

Review 28:It is a very basic B&B, needs updating, decorating & matching furniture, bedding. Needs cleaning bit better to.

Review 29:Hannah & Richard couldn't do enough for you. Mr Weeks was a very nice man. Was lovely having Richard taking you to & from B&B to wherever you wanted to go. A free shuttle to & from the beach. The people their were fantastic. Free wifi

Review 30:Somewhat low water pressure in shower.

Review 31:Excellent support from staff regarding e.g. planning & booking trips including bus or transfer. They conveniently arranged transfer at good price.

Review 32:The room the lock did not work and no one offered assistance with luggage up the stairs..breakfast was poor and cold and untasteful

Review 33:Only 1 staff tried to be engaging the big gentleman at the front desk. .no wifi very disappointing and no room service...

Review 34:Absolutly nothing.

Review 35:Everything, the service, great communication between staff and customer, staff always willing to please the customer and go the extra mile, and the list goes on and on.

Review 36:I only had a small problem with the phone ... I couldn't get calls .. people said they were calling me .. But the frontr desk came n get me which was not their job n I should of had my cell I left home in new York.. because I thought was not going to work there but the front desk help me

Review 37:I love everything... staff treated me great from the beginning to end... They went out of their way .. I couldn't ask for a better stay or better people to be around.. Front desk... excellent...Stephen and Hanana ...were awesome ... you guys really makes me want to come back to Barbados soon

Review 38:The property needs a major refurbishment, especially in the bedroom, bathroom and fixtures need changing (fan, AC, lights didn't work)

Review 39:Housekeeper was friendly.

Review 41:I realy Like the the pool deck is realy relaxing and the service are good, all employs are very atentions , the rooms are clean and confortable ,they have a coach service that take you to the beach . is really good .

Review 42:It was good to wake up to a prepared breakfast... that took the hassle out of the morning and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. I enjoyed the pool facility.... didn't have time for the BBQ but looks like it would be a load of fun!!!!! The new bar on the deck provided a good spot for relaxation and a final drink before retiring for the night... Until the next time

Review 54:the location , is far from everything, its not really family friendly especially with young children, you need to have a car

Review 55:the staff was friendly and helpful

Review 56:Overpriced in my opinion, needs updating. You can get something nicer for the same price if you shop around a little.

Review 58:The staff work very well to look out for you! They go out of their way to help you make the best of your day. I'll be coming back in the near future. Thanks for all the help comfort and memories! Paul.

Review 59:The worst Hotel I have ever stayed in. They have no hot water, it looks nothing like on the pictures, and in a horrible location. I reached there and ended up having to call bookings.com to fight to get the hotel canceled. The rooms where dirty and in serious need of upgrades. The bathrooms where mouldy and stank. When i inquired about the lack of hot water the receptionist had the nerve to tell me they didn't have hot water tanks. They only had solar panels and the water never got fully hot. One of my worst experiences at a hotel yet. I wouldn't wish that hotel on my worst enemy. I implore anyone reading DO NOT i repeat DO NOT STAY AT THAT DISGUSTING DUMB…

Review 60:The staff where very friendly!!!

Review 61:The beds were not good, we had problems with our air condiction, the wi-fi service was not good in out room spent a lot of time outside my door just to get A signal my shower water dripped all the time. When I was having the problems they never offered Me a better room to accomadate our issues. It could be a nice place but need some up- graing needs to be better maintain better beds and bedding our bed never had a mattres cover and the mattress was stained. One of the house keeper was very good took her time and cleaned ur room and they had one that was not so good. I personally would not go there again with my exerience there not unless there waS a lot of improvement.

Review 62:Far from the beach, restaurants and shops. Guest-house is located in the residental area

Review 63:Nice place, many TV channels, very friendly and helpful staff, there is free transfer to the beach

Review 64:It's set back about 10-15 minutes walk from the beach, so not the best location.

Review 65:Friendly, helpful, accommodating staff. There was lovely breakfast included, it was very comfortable, and there was a free lift into town 3 times a day. Good air conditioning kept the room nice and cool.

Review 66:This guest house is not clean. There were cockroaches in our room as well as geckos. It was very noisy and the walls within the house allowed us to hear telephone conversations as well as T.V. programs of the other patrons. I am sure I would never stay at this guest house again.

Review 67:The staff was very courteous, and very helpful when they could be. The bus driver was exceptional and alway very prompt.

Review 68:The apartment was not practical .The sofa and chair was in back room with kitchen.TV was in bedroom so ended up in bedroom all the time so I could watch TV. The kitchen was very basic just a gas stove,no toaster,kettle.No can opener or corkscrew.I may as well just have had the room rather than apartment. The bulb in the kitchen blew twice and it took 24 hours to fix. The location is far from main road and if you didn't have car it would be difficult. Price is too high for this location

Review 69:Wi-Fi was good so was TV with plenty of channels.

Review 70:I stayed here with a friend for a couple of nights over New Year. The staff here were totally fabulous- so helpful and couldn't do enough for us. Although it is located in a residential area, you can walk to a bus stop or the guest house has a shuttle bus which they were more than happy to give us lifts in. It's located in close proximity of st Lawrence's gap which is good for food and drinks in the evening. Also, Dover beach is nearby. The island is fairly small and taxis are very reasonable so everything is pretty accessible. The Emerald Ridge was clean, nicely decorated and spacious. Everything we could've wished for and great value.

Review 71:Maybe a bit difficult to find the first time as it is located in a residential area.

Review 72:Felt like I was staying with family or friends. Front desk staff was extremely nice and helpful.

Review 73:Location was further away from airport than we thought.We needed a taxi more to get around. Busses were a good way to get around but too long a walking distance for us to & from hotel. We also felt Mr. Weeks could have been as pleasant as his staff.

Review 74:Staff was excellent,breakfast was great.

Review 75:Te owner is an overweight dictator. I overheard him giving orders tostaff, and when the courtesy bus was due to collect the children andlady from the airport he diverted the bus elsewhere I used the bus (andpaid highly for it) The place could do with a good manager and the ownerstay away and it would be great

Review 76:Te staff were super and did everything ttey could to make our tripa pleasure

Review 77:The staff was really nice, they helped a lot for us. Even organizing trips, car rental or anything we asked. We got clean towels and bedding every day, we were allowed to use the kitchen. We really enjoyed our stay there.

Review 78:Something went wrong with reservation and did not get room withkitchenette, but did get good discount offer instead that did makeup for it!

Review 79:Had a very pleasant stay in comfortabel and clean room for a veryreasonable price. Very quiet location in residential area, but fewminutes drive to seaside, shuttles are available. The staff wasextremely helpfull and friendly, did everything to make my 3 days veryenjoyable. They offer all services to make your stay comfortable.

Review 80:No way to get to and from the house. Every cab driver could not find theplace. It is quite far from town, and a 15 min cab ride just to the bus.The house is literally falling appart. The tiles in my bathroom where falling off the walls. The shower was so gross we where afraid to use it. The Pool was discusting. Just plain dirty. STAY AWAY from this place. Whomever wrote the positive reviews must have been paid by the company.

Review 81:The room was affordable.

Review 82:Hard for taxi driver to find the hotel. The position on the map here on booking.com are wrong. 10 minutes walk to buses and 15 minutes to St Lawrence Gap (but safe surroundings).

Review 83:Nice guest house with great staff. Good breakfast, working wifi and clean room. I would recommend it!

Review 84:bedding had hair strands and particles on it. bathroom walls had soap residues...looked like had't been scrubbed after previous guest checked out. toilet seat had dried-out urine spots on it.

Review 88:Walking distance, roughly 10 minutes, to and from drop off from public transportation, cheapest form of travel.

Review 89:Readily facilitated travel to and from the airport. Staff members were quite polite and assisted well with other requests.

Review 90:I prepaid an airport pickup but the driver never showed up. I wasrequired to pay extra for a taxi to get to the hotel. We got lost tryingto find the hotel. It was a hassle. Owner refused to pay the differencefor the taxi.

Review 91:No air-conditionning in the kitchen so it's quite hot ; having dinner there is not possible yet. The shower in my room was very noisy.

Review 92:I enjoyed the effeciency and kindness of the marketing manager Hannah, the breakfast and the quietness of the place. People are serious and really try hard to help you out. They can also give you good advice.
