The Rockley by Ocean Hotels

Hi everyone. For those of you who are coming to the Rockley by Ocean Hotels in Barbados will not be disappointed. This is our 3rd visit currently still here. The staff are so friendly, welcoming and exceptionally helpful. You pay decent money to get here but you take a lot more out of the island when you leave which money can't buy. The Rockley is well situated and transport links are brilliant. 100% you'll want to come back.

The location is perfect especially for those without their own transport, Pool, beach , food and shopping very close by. Friendly and helpful staff. Room was clean. No problem with noise, enjoyed the Karaoke Great pool and beach opposite the hotel was great.

So just been for a fabulous 12 night stay in the ROCKLEY. From the moment we walked in until leaving to go home we were looked after by a great team. We were met by Troy, he welcomed us and sorted out the check in. At our room there was a lovely display to mark our 40th wedding anniversary, including complimentary drinks and food platter. Our room was spotless, spacious and very comfortable with our balcony overlooking the pool and beach. During our stay, staff organised the trips we wanted to do, making it simple for us. The hotel restaurant provided a good breakfast, and a varied menu at lunch and evenings which also could be ordered in the bar. Once again really friendly and helpful staff. Some events were organised in the bar area which always had good atmosphere. All in all, a really good place to stay, some excellent restaurants such as Champers and Tapas just a few minutes walk away as well as a variety of food courts and other facilities close by. If you prefer the beach to the pool, just cross the road. If you want to get out and about, try the local buses at $3.50 Bbd a ride. Give this place a try, if you want a great friendly place to stay, not a corporate style chain hotel. Once again, a big thank you to all of friendly smiling staff who always had a minute to chat with you.

We’ve just returned from the most wonderful stay at The Rockley, and I honestly can’t recommend it highly enough. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so welcome. The staff are absolutely exceptional – warm, friendly, and always happy to help with anything at all. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and their genuine kindness really made our stay extra special. Our room was spotless, beautifully presented, and incredibly comfortable.  The whole hotel has such a calm, stylish feel, and everything is kept to such a high standard. The location is ideal too close to everything you could need. We loved spending time by the pool, soaking up the sunshine, and just enjoying the lovely atmosphere. It was such a special trip for me and my daughter, and The Rockley made it truly memorable. We’ve come home with the happiest memories and would return in a heartbeat. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay so perfect – we’ll definitely be back! 💛

Great location , pool is very nice and the bar as well.

The service was very bad, you seemed to annoy the staff when you asked a question. Not very helpful either and for the price we paid , we would not return there. We travel to many places in the world and we must say, this was the worst in terms of customer service. Ex: we ask the front desk for towels because we want to go to the beach. First day, he gives us the towels, we get to the beach they tell us we need this ticket. Why would the lobby person not give us the ticket right away. We were not able to call for a restaurant reservation , the women at the front was annoyed and ask me to try again. I had tried 5 times it was not working. They tell us they will make the reservation. We showed up never did. The hotel advises they will change our bed sheets after 3 days. They were never changed. Breakfast was bad, service extremely slow - everytime we showed up for breakfast barely any food left. Everything seemed very difficult. Honestly , for the price and service go somewhere else. Location is great however. But if you want peaceful and good service. Don’t come here.

The location of the hotel is excellent - close to the beach, restaurants and shopping. The staff overall are outstanding - very friendly and helpful, ready to assist in any way. The rooms, although a bit dated, are spacious and very clean. Housekeeping was very good. The breakfast buffet was just OK, not our favorite thing at the hotel, but other meals and drinks were good. Activities were fun. We did the island tour with Troy and truly enjoyed it. The hotel is lively during the day/evening but quieted down nicely at night. We loved that they have there own chairs/umbrellas at the beach, and rarely did people monopolize the loungers at the pool. We always found a space. We felt the hotel is great value for money spent and would recommend.

Great place to stay with easy access to other parts of the island. Helpful staff and lovely rooms. Beautiful swimming pool at the front of the hotel and beach just across the road, walking distance to st Lawrence Gap, and Worthing. Good bus service and ZR ‘ reggae buses’. Lovely Tiki bar on the beach. Breakfast was really good. We would happily return.

The Rockley is located in a good area just opposite the beach and near restaurants and shops. Great staff and in general a good hotel. Appreciated all the little extras in our room for our honeymoon. ❤️

Lovely hotel, beach just across road with complimentary sun loungers and umbrellas. Rooms are huge and everything you need in them including toiletries. Not a huge choice for breakfast but food menu was very good. Pool lovely and great for kids.

Our stay was very good. The location is perfect just a min from the beach. The room was very big and had everything we needed, just the bathroom needs to be refurbished. We love the pool area and the staff was very friendly. The breakfast was tasty, we loved their pumpkins fritters :D
