Worth the try
We enjoyed our stay. The hotel is clean, service is excellent, staff is nice and the free breakfast was good as well (It was the deciding factor in booking). The pool was great as well. The only negative was that the beds were a bit small. Otherwise, we were happy with the hotel.

A great stay!
Friendly hotel that was clean and well staffed. It was great for a 3 star and is reasonably priced for families and couples to be able to come and enjoy Barbados. The rooms are lovely and spacious and clean towels are plentiful. The staff are friendly and courteous.I feel there should be an extra cover provided for the bed as one sheet is not enough. That is the only thing though as we had a great stay on this lovely island!

Check in was easy & quick. Staff are so friendly & helpful. Property is clean. Free breakfast is a nice touch with lots of choice. We had lunch a couple of times & that was great quality & really tasty. Beach is across the road. Quite choppy but very peaceful & secluded. I’d recommend this hotel.

Place not really clean and not well mantained, in the night was raining and my room was flooded, and as usual if you book with Expedia or adder provider you get the worst possible room. The smell of mould was terrible, toilet indecent, linen on the bed from last century. Can be nice but wasn’t

The overall cleanliness of the property was good. Staff was helpful with transportation service but there wasn’t any activity apart from the pool. Guests had to find their own recreation since nothing was offered by the hotel. The breakfast wasn’t that great. At check in the hotel still collected the government tax after I had already paid it to Expedia and no one could give me a proper explanation why that was done.

The breakfast buffet wasn’t great. When we came down for breakfast, there were no clean plates no clean mugs. There was also no fruit whatsoever no yogurt. And none of the staff seem to be interested in serving you.

My stay at Sunbay was nice. We visited off peak season so the entire place was quite and we had the pool to ourselves. The staff were courteous. The breakfast however could use some more variety. It's difficult eating eggs, bacon, baked beans, potatoes or sausage several different ways everyday if you're there for more than 3 days. Overall experience not bad. The bed in our room was quite comfortable and the rooms were clean.
