The Rockley by Ocean Hotels 

Bold, fresh and packed with Bajan personality

A sense of place and playful vibe come as standard at this refreshed urban hotel across from the picture-perfect Rockley Beach

This perfectly placed, 49-room, all-suite hotel emulates the laid-back cool and take-it-easy vibe of Barbados, with its reimagined focus on local art, culture, food and music and urban design. Cross over the road to reach one of the island’s most beautiful beaches, where you can revel in the complimentary beach service; alternatively, sip cocktails and keep cool with ice lollies by the pool, which runs along the length of the property. Learn a few Bajan phrases from the 'art for the people' decor before heading out to explore; Barbados is your oyster with lively St Lawrence Gap is just a 20-minute walk away and Bridgetown a cab ride away.

Why we love The Rockley by Ocean Hotels

  • The hotel is intimate and low-key, with just 49 suites and accommodation to suit couples as well as families.

  • It’s in an excellent location with an emphasis on exploring the local area. Oistins Bay, St Lawrence Gap and Bridgetown are all close by, while Harrison’s Cove and other attractions are easily reachable too.

  • It’s just across the road from Rockley Beach, where the South Coast Boardwalk offers scenic walks edged with landscaped gardens and several restaurants and shops within walking distance.

  • The decor is bright and bold and will even give you a few Bajan phrases to try out - the hotel furnishings and local art works peppered with them,

  • Good to Know

The Bajan-inspired breakfast is served in the The Restaurant at The Rockley, and the menu changes on the daily. The Caribbean flavours continue on to lunch time but there are also plenty of international offerings too; it's a super casual space with bold black and white murals on the walls, a buzzing atmosphere and a warm Barbados welcome. For dinner, head out to one of the nearby restaurants that line the South Coast boardwalk, walkable from the property; Lanterns, Tiki Bar and Champers are favourites. Some south coast restaurants work with the hotel as part of Dine & Sign so you can charge your meal back to your room making life easy breezy.
