Blue Orchids Beach Hotel

Great ensuite apartment, huge balcony pool and Sea views

Nothing

The location was perfect along the main road with the option to take a bus instead of taxi. The rooms are very comfortable and clean. I like the friendliness of the staff also. The food at the restaurant was simply delicious.

It may be a good idea to have the restaurant look like they are part of the staff by having on a uniform. It looks better instead of street clothes.

Very pretty pool area. Buildings have quaint curb appeal. Access to the beach, buses and taxis, and a few different restaurants as well as a grocery store in walking distance. Staff were very friendly, especially Reggie, who was willing to help with any sight seeing need!

Limited hours at the on site restaurant. A/c was functional for the bedroom and sleeping, which is fine as we were out and about for most of our stay. If you are someone who likes to have a cool room to home back to, it’s not going to happen!

Lovely beach hotel in a lovely location. The hotel is full of charm and tradition of years gone past.

Nothing

Loved our room and the easy access to the pool/outdoor area.

Nothing really.

Ocean front room, great views with two pools which worked great for us- I love the ocean and my husband prefers the pool - they were steps from each other. Staff were all friendly and some truly made our stay ( Reggie, Joseph and Latoya were spot on, there was another lady on the security team who was a true sweetheart), The kitchen was stocked well enough. You do need to buy all your own food/drink and this may be an issue for some but Massy is just up the street so we had coffee and breakfast on or ocean view patio each morning and cold cheap banks ( not bar prices) in the evening. I did see some complaints about bathrooms in need of repair or lack of warm water however this was not a noted issue for us. Also the elevator functioned perfectly the entire time. The location was ideal we mostly stayed at the semi.private hotel beach but Accra/ Rockley beach was a few 100 meters away and Worthington Beach was not far either. Many food options in close proximity to fit all desires - commercial food truck, street food ( home cooked meal served from a van at 20 BBD a pop and enough food for two days), restaurant chains( Chafette / Bubba/ KFC/ Burger King / Little Caesars) or finer dining at Champers/ Tapas etc. Oistins is also a quick bus taxi Ride away. Can't speak to the onsite restaurant. All in all we were quite satisfied with our choice

As mentioned in other posts gym amenities are limited ( 2x treadmills, a recumbent bike and a weight machine) but there is a great board walk that many run/ walk for exercise however if you lift the gym will definitely not meet you needs. The street noise can be heard from some rooms but we just closed our bathroom door and that helped reduce it. One morning house cleaning staff were quite persistent when knocking on our door in order to gain entry to clean the room. This is the only incident that bothered me. I am on vacation and don't expect to have someone persistently knock on my door to clean nor do I expect it to happen before 9 am. Point for hotel to consider.

I liked the room sea view, the easy access to beach/pool. Nice food in the restaurant

Wifi was intermittent in my room. Toilet needs to be fixed a bit.

Location- walkable but many forms of transportation available. Staff. Layout of room. Breakfast options were good. More private beach- lovely.

Outdated appliances and fixtures. Need to update payment polices. No prepayment was charged. Card on file wouldn’t work even though charged and pending. Created stressful check in. Gym needs huge upgrades and better upkeep/cleanliness.
