Adriano and Bancroft were super friendly and welcoming. When I checked in at 5pm and interacted with both hosts, I couldn’t stop smiling. Excellent service, they’re both very detailed and charming. Ambience and aesthetics - 10/10. Would stay at Tamarind every given opportunity.

Our 5 night stay was so wonderful. Every one of the staff was so pleasant and welcoming and there to help with anything. We stayed in a one bedroom suite room which was located at the top of the hill. The mix of stairs and hills to walk was no joke but I will say the views from our room were so beautiful and probably nicer than the lower rise. They do have a shuttle but we opted for the exercise to work off all of the drinks and food. The beach was so gorgeous and clean. The location of the resort isn’t very walkable but there are a few things in walking distance that we checked like Dennis Beach Bar on Fryes Beach, Darkwood Beach and Aunti Cavells across the street. Otherwise the resort will arrange for a taxi to go anywhere. Shaine was our taxi driver and he was always available and very knowledgeable about the area and island. Jolly Harbour was the closest “town” that had the grocery store, bank machine and some good restaurants which was only about 5 min car ride. We checked out all of the areas on the island and agreed this location was the best. You can get to English Harbour in 35-40 mins for a day trip or go up to St Johns in 25-30 mins. This side of the island has the sunsets and they are absolutely beautiful at Tamarind Hills. If you want to be close to the action I would recommend staying more in Jolly Harbour but if you want a beautiful resort, beach, views, etc. Tamarind Hills is a great option. We would absolutely book again and would recommend to anyone.

Paradise with a few hiccups
Beautiful accommodations & grounds! Rooms spacious & with large balconies facing a gorgeous beach! We booked the ocean view room with jacuzzi! Very quiet & calm environment! It is built into a hill so we had to climb like 90 steps to get to our room from the beach, pool & restaurant. We actually found the road easier than the steps although definitely a bit of a workout. Do think you can arrange with the front desk to get a ride up from the lobby if you work it out with them. A couple with a 2 year old got driven up to their room. The restaurant was nice, decor excellent, servers & all staff were so friendly. However they did run out of many items on the menu & could use to ramp up the menu! Our room had a kitchenette area no stove but a few burners so if you’d want you can cook in. A grocery store is a few minutes drive away. One other item & an important one since it’s a beach resort not enough beach towels. So hang on to the ones you’re lucky to get & hang them on your patio chair to dry until you can exchange for fresh ones. Just a short walk down the beach is Dennis restaurant which was pretty good & great views! All in all even with a few issues my husband & I loved this resort for its relaxing atmosphere & beautiful surroundings!
Our spacious patio
 Very clean & relaxing jacuzzi needed after walking up & down the hill!

Quiet and chill resort, but could use some clean up on grounds as they aren't that pretty to look at (though view of beach is lovely). No hot tub / spa, which was disappointing (some units have their own, which of course costs more). Learned that the property now offers a day pass for folks coming off of cruise ships, which is likely to totally change the vibe. Food was ok, could be better for the price.

21. Pros: •stunning views and lovely beach •several great waitress and bar staff, such as Brittany, Gavisha, and Kemet (Adriano at desk was very helpful) •aesthetically beautiful bathroom •offering of in-room spa services •Snapper tacos, whole snapper, lamb chops snd the steak dinner were good Cons/Suggestions: When you’re on vacation it’s the little details that matter, like… •asking a guest if they they want taste the wine before you pour a glass •covering the juice at the breakfast bar (as one might expect, there are many bugs/flies) •waitstaff knowing the menu (eg: ceviche comes with chips—one waitress said they didn’t have them, another said they did, the chef confirmed this) •staff communication on stock of items (front desk asked that we call the restaurant for cigars; they in turn said they used to have them, but no longer do) •robes reminiscent of a hospital gown and only one had a belt provided •give guests more than one set of towels per person and when requested, actually bring them to the room (had to go to the front desk to follow up after 3 hrs of waiting) Can’t say we’ll never return, as it’s a beautiful property. We’ll need to gauge the experience we’re seeking and temper expectations before coming again.

Beautiful views. Massive amount of mountain climbing to get to and from the room. Shower was clogged the entire week of our stay. Chef was polite. The woman that checked us in was polite. Food was insanely overpriced, extremely small TINY portions, extremely limited options, accommodating at first but after the second meal special requests, even due to allergies, just seemed to be annoying. Obviously everyone is on island time, but there were multiple instances daily where we ordered things and just flat out never got them and upon asking would find out that it was just forgotten. Peaceful property. Quiet location. Not really near any shopping, outside dining, etc. Taxis to St John’s were over $120. TONS of bugs, bring bug spray!! OH and the amount on your receipt at check out is NOT what they will charge your card. They will absolutely upcharge your card after you check out and leave the property.

They are not ready for guests. Failure to launch is the best way to put it. The wait times for food was absurd. Not enough chairs or towels for the beach. And the flies were so bad, you couldn’t eat.
