The room view was very beautiful also we felt welcomed on our arrival. The pool view was also breathtaking. We was not able to make tea in the room since the kettle was not heating up. The phone was not in operation and the light in the pool bar area needs cleaning. Nonetheless our experience was good and the customer service was excellent.

I do not recommend staying at this hotel. When I first arrived, an older lady greeted me respectfully and kindly helped me carry my suitcase to my room. However, I was disappointed to find that the restaurant only serves food at specific times. After a long flight, I hoped to order something to eat, but was told dinner wasn’t being served yet. I explained that I was hungry after traveling, and eventually the staff asked the chef, who agreed to make something. I ordered chicken strips and a drink, but neither tasted very good. I ate it because I had no other choice. The hotel may be affordable, but there are serious drawbacks. At night, there is no security or staff at the front desk, which feels unsafe. One morning, I left for Pebbles Beach at 6am to meet my taxi driver, and there was still no one at reception. This lack of security is concerning. Cleanliness is also an issue the property clearly needs maintenance and attention. It’s also located far away from most attractions. The front desk staff are unhelpful and seem to know little about Barbados, which is surprising for a hotel. My room was quite disappointing. The furniture was old and musty, and the shower didn’t work properlywater leaked all over the bathroom floor every time I used it. The bed was uncomfortable and the bedding was hard, making it difficult to sleep. Cats were wandering around inside the hotel, and I was warned to keep an eye on my food to prevent them from eating it.

It was my first time in Barbados and staying here was perfect. I loved the view from my room to the ocean. I was initially taken aback a bit with no T.V. in the room. However I can honestly say it wasn’t missed and I was glad I didn’t have one. There’s so much to do on the island you don’t need it. The staff was Absolutely amazing and the best experience I ever had.My husband and I will certainly be returning.

I had an excellent time at Ocean Blue I felt like I owned the property. It wasn’t crowded at all. If you want a party on the resort, this is not the place for you, but it is so convenient to go to the best places in the Bahamas and party like Friars Bay is the best. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The staff was beyond wonderful. They went from workers to friends. Now let’s talk about the aesthetics. If you’re a person who likes beautiful aesthetic pieces or places, this is the place for you. It has such a Mediterranean vibe. You will literally think that you just landed in Mykonos the Grecian vibe mix with the touch of African art is absolutely phenomenal. thank you Ocean blue for a wonderful time. I would definitely return.

Unfortunately I only stayed 1 night, I was not happy with the location, i got a 1st floor room and was told that’s the only room available. I checked out the next day and gives notice in writing and verbal that I was not happy but the front desk staff just told me a refund is not appropriate.
