"After an initial hiccup with check in as the property manager was away, the rest of the stay was amazing. Very clean property with everything you need in the apartment. The area is in a quiet residential cul de sac and is extremely safe, even for me, a solo female, but a short walk to all amenities. Parking available at rear of the property"

Stayed all inclusive - food was varied every day and always a healthy choice! The basic garden view is still amazing - we had our own balcony, lounge and kitchen. All of the staff were super friendly, as were all locals in Barbados. The excursions and use of big hotel on beach made a difference too. We were there for a wedding which was amazing and the spa treatments we had was great - I really can't say a bad word about it!

Outstanding hotel, full of history, perched above the ocean on the beautiful east coast. Everything is immaculate. Rooms are brilliant and food is excellent. Lovely coastal walk to charming Bathsheba.

Harriet was waiting at the airport which was lovely
which we had arranged before hand and I kept in contact about flight delay.
She took us to there apartment and showed us around
which was great .
We had a lovely time just for 1 night as we were off to St Vincent the next day.
We have been to Barbados before and will go again at some point so will definitely stay here next time .

I was staying for just 1 night before flying home. I was made to feel extremely welcome by the hosts and their charming granddaughter. The apartment was clean, spacious and comfortable with all the facilities you'd need. I really liked the information board in the hallway so no questions went unanswered.

Coral Reef offers a uniquely beautiful garden setting with a sea and beach border. To glance in any direction in any of those settings, is to see beauty. The elegant and welcoming main building and scattered cottages and garden rooms sit comfortably and gloriously within the garden and beach areas. All ones needs are absorbed by the attention of a myriad of gentle, characterful and super efficient staff and underpinned by the ever present attention of the family owners. Paradise on earth.

Whilst this hotel is about an hours drive from the airport, Bridgetown and the tourist nightlife, it more than makes up for it with it's quiet, peaceful location and the friendliness and quality of it's staff. If you want to visit different locations around the island you will need to hire a car (for an adventure, try the bus services - quite an experience - but try to avoid school in & out times unless you want to experience being a sardine).

Family of 5 really enjoyed our stay, although we were only bed and breakfast and to be honest, the hotel restaurant and those in the town were really expensive! A round of 5 soft drinks was £25 and our evening meal in the hotel was £200 + with mostly tap water ( 2 kids meals) There are some cheaper restaurants in the town ,Just Grillin, Surfside Bar but nowhere open for Sunday lunch! We went to Oistins fish fry which we all enjoyed. Relaxed beach and lots of watersports too. People do try...

Great boutique hotel, with sea view. Perfect stop off before getting our flight back to London the following day. Our hostesses were very welcoming and helpful.

Visited the hotel in 2007 and 2008 and amazed that Reggie still remembered us after all that time when we returned in August this year!
Hotel was quiet (but so was the whole area including the Gap) and the one bedroom apartment was good although could do with a lick of paint.
The hotel is on the beach, which never had more than a dozen people on it ,and sunbeds, towels, umbrellas were easy - no getting up at dawn to reserve. Walking into the sea is like walking into a warm bath and nice and...

We went for 8 days with our 9month old daughter and could not have been more satisfied. The rooms/apartments are incredibly spacious, have a beautiful ocean views, a generous kitchen and are finished to a very high standard. The same cleaner comes every day and does an incredible job at keeping the apartment clean (including dishes and laundry). The property is right by the beach and the gazebo serves a nice selection of food (e.g. fish, salads, sandwiches) and offers room as well as pool side...

The host waited up for us as our flight got in really late, however i kept him informed.
On entry to the apartment the first impression although sparsely furnished, the place was very clean with fresh bedding and towels. It would have been really lovely if the host had provided limited beverages, so we could make a hot drink on arrival and first thing in the morning. The garage that provided a cook breakfast in my opinion was adequate, nothing to get excited about.
Future bookings should make...
