The hotel

Bringing a live-like-a local vibe, The Rockley by Ocean Hotels has arrived in Barbados. Designed in bold, fresh, and locally inspired décor plus a splash of local artwork, all suites are supremely comfortable with gorgeous king-size beds, furnished balconies and kitchen facilities – adding that extra bit of convenience and helping you feel right at home. When you want to take it easy you can just relax by the pool or chill out on your complimentary lounger on the amazing Rockley beach which is just across the road from the hotel. If you’re feeling active, you’re in luck, there’s plenty to keep you busy in the Play Space with table tennis, pool table and darts. Nights are lively too with evening entertainment at the new bar offering a trendy beach club vibe. The resort is so hip that you won't want to leave, but if you do, you’ll find the vibrant heart of the South Coast and its wide assortment of dining, shopping, and entertainment choices just 5 minutes away!

I never leave reviews, but I needed to for this place. The location is very central to many restaurants, local shops and beaches (that you can walk or taxi to). I did not encounter one unhappy staff member… seriously they’re all so nice and friendly and will put a smile on your face throughout the day. I can tell that they really go above and beyond to meet your needs. Wish there was more in house entertainment (like by the pool or outdoor lounging area) if I had to fish for something “wrong”. The rooms were very spacious, clean and no odour (which is huge for me). Also the tap water (in all of Barbardos) is seriously delicious as they have one of the largest springs in the Caribbean. Would definitely recommend this hotel to our friends and family. Read less

Arrived late due to global crisis and still had to pay for a late checkout. Suite was ok rug needed a good cleaning but overall pleasant stay. Breakfast was a bit bland but ok.
