Melbourne Inn is an excellent hotel. It was  comfortable,  clean, relaxing, convenient, memorable, and welcoming. The front desk staff  were pleasant, helpful,  polite,  reliable ,  respectful, and informative. Also, our compliments to the chef on making an amazing omelette.  We will definitely make it our accommodation of choice on our next visit.

Melbourne Inn is a lovely little gem. The staff were so friendly and kind. Melbourne Inn was extremely clean. Our room was quiet and comfortable. The bistro and poolside was nice to come back from a walk and go for a refreshing swim and have a snack. I would highly recommend this place to stay.

We arrived in Barbados the night before our five night Sandals stay so that we could maximize our time on our first day at the resort. Melbourne Inn did exactly as we needed, a clean, safe place to spend the night, we checkout about 730am. It was about a fifteen minute uber ride from the airport, and a five minute walk to Sandals. Our only downfall, which had nothing to do with Melbourne Inn, was that we arrived about 1030pm and couldn’t find anywhere with food still open. We found a few bars, but they had stopped serving food, so no dinner for us. The staff were kind, check in and out was easy, we’d stay here again!

Great pool, bar and restaurant, especially at happy hour. Very clean with professional and friendly staff. Room cleaning every other day, but our 7 night stay only had 1 full cleaning, seemed like the housekeeping schedule was not ideal. Would stay again if in the area.
