Great staff, lovely location

Rochelle E on Jan 09, 2026

No. 1 for me was the staff — absolutely outstanding. Everyone was friendly, warm, and genuinely happy to help. Deirdra at reception is an absolute gem. She arranged a special dinner and message for my 40th birthday and even came down with a birthday song, which was such a lovely touch. Seth and Zion were also great, and the breakfast ladies were stars — my 2-year-old adored them. The rooms are spacious, clean, and well-equipped, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The fitness studio is handy — basic, but perfect for getting some cardio in. The location is great. Bridgetown and Oistins are both close by, and the vibe outside the hotel felt relaxed, cool, and very local, which we loved. Some people mentioned better beaches further down the coast, but we really enjoyed this one. The sand was golden, and we were able to get chairs through the hotel, which made it very convenient. The pool area was also lovely and a great spot to relax. Negatives: The evening entertainment wasn’t really for me — although that’s partly because I’m not a karaoke fan. Breakfast was quite disappointing. Being in Barbados, it would have been nice to see a better daily selection of Bajan dishes. As a pescatarian who doesn’t eat eggs, options were very limited — and I was honestly thankful I’d already given up veganism. Overall, a really enjoyable stay, made especially memorable by the incredible staff

Family break

We had a fabulous time at the Rockley between Christmas and New Year's. The location is perfect and it is easy to walk to the beach and a variety of excellent restaurants. The rooms are large and service is great. There is also a taxi stand right across the street which was very convenient. Even though it was Christmas the hotel did not feel crowded and we never had to wait for anything. We would definitely return!

We wish we stayed longer.

On arrival we were greeted by a very helpful young man who brought our cases to the room. We were offered rum punch and he fully explained everything that we needed to know about the room, restaurant, local area. Lovely clean and spacious room. Nice food selection. We wished that we had stayed longer than 1 night. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Top Accomodations in Barbados!

A great spot to stay while on the island! Spacious accommodations, helpful and friendly staff, great food, and right across the street from Rockley Beach and shops. The boardwalk is also very close by. Kitchens included in the suites as well which was super convenient!
