We had not visited Barbados for a number of years as we had decided we preferred the less developed atmosphere of Antigua. On our last couple of visits to Barbados we had stayed at the Sandpiper, which was full on this occasion, so we opted for its larger sister hotel – The Coral Reef Club. Run and maintained to the... more

Returned today after 7 nights at this marvellous hotel. If you want "cutting edge" modern design in an hotel don't come here (or probably Barbados at all). This hotel was established in 1952 - but it is immaculately maintained and has an elegant but informal air to it. All ages should feel comfortable here - but if you want a... more

Like other reviewers have commented I don't get the negative reviews on this hotel either. We've stayed there for a number of years and everytime the hotel exceeds our expectations. The staff are delightful and friendly - they will go out of their way to make you feel welcome and safe. The hotel is spotless - the rooms are SO... more

Strictly for the discerning! I have been lucky enough to stay at The Coral Reef club twice this year. On both occasions the standards were excellent, staff efficient and friendly and the ambience relaxing. The O'Hara family who own and run this hotel, add their own brand of magic to make this my favourite hotel worldwide. Coral Reef is a... more

I really do not get the negative comments on this site for this luxury hotel. I've travelled the world and yes, there is always room for improvement but this is simply world class. Friendly owners take a personal interest in your happiness, the rooms especially the Plantation suites are second to none, the staff are professional yet incredibly genuine and... more

The whole "Coral Reef Club" experience exceeded our expectations. Having visited a large number of "5star" holiday locations around the world. We can assure furture vistors that it will be in their top ten of beach destinations. The hotel has a gracious elegance that runs through the entire estate but what really stands out are the qualities of the staff.... more

Just returned from another stay at Coral Reef. Working in the travel industry and mainly the luxury end of the market, offers me an opportunity to travel worldwide. For my personal family holiday we have stayed at Coral Reef quite a few times. I was most surprised to read the recent review of 26 July - these people must have... more

I can honestly say I've never been so disappointed with a hotel - ever. We walked in and immediately knew that it wouldn't be for us. Dirty, tired looking and what is going on with that pool?! We didn't want to stay there at all and immediately booked in to the Lone Star hotel which was absolutely fantastic. We disliked... more

This place is wonderful. The resort is set in its own wondeful surroundings. The beach is long , maybe not the sand pasted type but whats found just outside of that beach is amazing. The variety of coral is fantastic. The staff were very informaive, telling us of fire coral and different fish , of which there are many. The... more
