Coral Sands Beach Resort

Local limpo e agradável.

Não tem café da manhã.

Peter and Suzanne at the front desk were very pleasant and helpful with all issues and questions. The facility was very clean throughout and rooms were very spacious. Balcony with ocean view was perfect. Outdoor bar and pool were facing the ocean and were also very relaxing.

Security fence with gate code to access the beach were a little off putting. Some guests have already commented about this.

Wonderful stay at this Barbados hotel! Amazing location only 15 minutes from the airport, right on a beautiful peaceful beach. The views from the room were absolutely stunning, especially overlooking the sea. The pool area was fantastic and relaxing, and the whole hotel had a calm tropical atmosphere. Perfect place to unwind and enjoy Barbados!

The location was fantastic. So close to the beach, local shops and restaurants. Staff were friendly and helpful. Rooms were large. The hotel has about 30 rooms and we like the smaller hotels.

Only small criticism would be that the towels in the room were very small and thin.

Massive rooms - all with a sea view. The hotel is at the beach - you just need to go through a gate. Fifty meters to a local supermarket.

Dated and a bit tired. There is a bar by the pool but it was almost never open during our stay. This hotel is not really my “cup of tea” but I spoke with a couple that have been coming back over decades so clearly my view is not universal.

Beste Lage am Strand !! Lebensmittelgeschäft um die Ecke

Liegestühle auf dem Balkon wären gut !!

Great location right by the beach. the outlook from our room across the pool to the ocean was delightful - a great place to wake up in the mornings.

The street area from which the resort is accessed is quite down at heel. the resort was well-placed to walk to a number of venues, however the footpath paving was pretty ordinary for the most part so, when walking, we had to be extra careful we didn't trip on the broken footpaths. Each morning when we were on our patio enjoying breakfast and our wonderful view, we were disturbed by a strong smell of marijuana that made me feel quite nauseous. It seemed to be coming from another room at the resort. Although I reported the discomfort to the front desk, the marijuana smell persisted on subsequent days. On the last evening we were there, while having a farewell drink with friends, they also smelled the marijuana, so it certainly was not just in my imagination. This was disappointing.

Nice large room. Kitchen perfect…BUT no dish soap.. paper towel???

Seriously- ZERO toiletries?????? No dish soap..?only one tea towel.???

Vista mare, ampiezza camera, sdraio e ombrelloni in piscina davanti a spiaggia molto carina

Recinzione filo spinato

Great location directly at the white sand, pristine waters beach. Top equiped apartment with kitchen. Near to various great dinner places.

Brilliant location next to beach

N/A

Room is quite large, beds are comfortable, however it needs an update. Several power outlets in the room and bathroom didn't work.

Staff at the reception desk seemed to be on a bad mood the whole time. Nobody willing to help us with our luggage and no luggage cart available. Cleaning staff did a great job!

The location for our needs were perfect

We had a toilet issue and it took 3 days to resolve

No coffee or tea in room, no shampoo, conditioner or soap in shower. Restaurant under construction

Beliggenheden, lige ud til vandet. Dejlig terrasse. Dejlig lejlighed med køkken.

Alt var fint.

Great location, friendly staff

Nothing

The staff were excellent. The beach was very nice just a little windy while we were there. The location worked very well for us to walk into Bridgetown and Oistins. Thr r99m was large and is was nice to have full sized fridge.

The only items that were disappointing were that there wasn't a dish cloth, dish detergent, paper towels, shampoo or body wash included. If you are there only there for 4 nights it would have been nice to have a few supplies included.

Die tolle Lage, die landestypischen Ausstattung

Das Personal war um es positiv zusagen desinteressiert, wenig hilfreich beim Gepäck man kann auch sagen lustlos. In den Zimmern war kein Shampoo, Duschgel, Bodylotion , auch auf Nachfrage nicht zubekommen, lediglich ein Hinweis auf einen 10 Minuten entfernten Shop. Was für diese Preisklasse ungewöhnlich ist.

Ok for what we needed

A bit old, some refreshing would be nice. Helpful staff

Fantastic location, amazing sea view and very clean, well maintained

None

The studios are basic and clean. The location is amazing, being so close to a small but wonderful beach. St. Lawrence Gap, with all its restaurants, is just a short walk away. The staff were helpful, and we were able to store our cases at reception and enjoy the facilities while we waited to go to the airport. The pool is small but we were glad of it.

The barbed wire surrounding the property is awful. Such a beautiful view from the pool is ruined by prison vibes. No other hotel has this. It’s just awful and it totally ruins the vacation vibe.

Hotel is a hidden gem, fantastic staff, great location on the beach.

Location

Room was clean, the availability of utensils. Just the overall feel. Staff was very friendly as well.

Lack of adequate side tables to rest phone on for charging or just to place a glass of water. Only one side table for 2 beds.

Das Hotel liegt direkt an einem schönen kleinen Sandstrand. Die Zimmer wurden täglich gereinigt und waren entsprechend sehr sauber. Das Hotelpersonal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.

Leider handelt es sich um einen öffentlichen Strand, der insbesondere für Kinder, die freilaufende Hunde nicht mögen, eher ungeeignet ist. Das Hotel ist aufgrund durchweg gefliester Böden und nicht verglaster, sondern nur mit Holzlamellen versehener Lüftungsschächte zwischen Badezimmer und Hotelflur ziemlich hellhörig.

Lovely beach front hotel, very friendly and helpful staff. Very big well equipped room. Nice swimming pool area

The shower room was very small and dingy. Would have liked some shower gel

The rooms were clean

Not all the staff were polite. The food options were limited in the restaurant

beachfront Size of room

Front desk staff unpleasant. For the price point the lack of basic toiletries was disappointing.

The staff was very nice and service was always friendly. My room was huge and the balcony haf an amazing view of the ocean. I didnt like the fact the room had an actual key and not a key card. Very quiet since it was off peak.

W sierpniu w hotelu nie było pełnego obłożenia, więc nie było problemu z wolnymi leżakami przy basenie. Pokoje czyste i przestronne. Spokojna okolica.

Brak leżaków hotelowych na plaży.

A satisfied customer!

I like that the room had a kitchenette and even though on this trip I made minimal use of it. But I will likely be back soon and this feature will be the biggest reason I would choose this property again. My only real complaint is that there was no shampoo, conditioner etc. Plenty of soap. But as a business traveler used to virtually every hotel having shampoo at least, it was an unpleasant surprise. Bars of soap are terrible for washing hair, as I learned the hard way with no option available on the first morning. Then you have to find a place to buy some, and end up leaving an oversized bottle behind. Other than that, a nice place and coming from someone who visit quite regularly on business. I will be back, just bring supplies from another hotel. :)

This isn’t a review for coral sands but the staff who refused to cancel my booking that was made by Expedia which I didn’t approve - the choice of hotel was a forced choice to replace the Accra beach hotel which closed three days prior to my departure. I told Expedia no that it wasn’t comparable and I would have never picked a dated 70s hotel with a man sitting at a table with flurorescent colored walls . They didn’t want to give me a refund neither Expedia or coral sands because they are both crooks who work together to keep my money even though I requested a refund. BBB is no help because they just communicate for me. I could have booked this new hotel for cheaper a night on the website directly yet somehow Expedia thinks it was a great replacement for the hotel the had a closure. Do yourself a favor and don’t use third party crooks . Book though Airbnb or something like that and buy an airline ticket directly through the airline website. That way crooks can’t make up excuses why it’s not refundable even though the closure wasn’t my fault and ruined all my plans ! Screw Expedia and coral sands for their greediness!

Quartos amplos, piscina legal, boa localização

Poucas opcoes no restaurante, wifi ruim, staff pouco amigavel

The property was perfect for my wife and me. We prefer smaller properties and preferably quieter. The staff were superb - always friendly and helpful. Gerry behind the front desk was a mine of information and helped us out many times. Kenneth, the nighttime desk man was very personable and chatted with us each time we came in. The room maids were just awesome; we always came back to a room looking as if we had just arrived. The hotel restaurant had wonderful food and flexible hours. The pool was sparkling clean and never too busy and the adjacent pool bar was a bonus. We would highly recommend this hotel to families and older adults.

I loved the friendly staff and the awesome location convenient to grocery store, shopping, dining, night life all in walking distance l. I loved that I had the pool to myself most of the the time. Pop view and ocean view from the room was great The diner served very good food. We are there 3 or 4 times out of our 8 day stay. Nothing to complain about there. Did I mention how clean the pool was free of all debris. The property was very secure. I also appreciateed the music that came from the Sands next store, it brought life to our otherwise for quiet surroundings

I didn't like the ever so small beach that did look like the ad. I didn't like the immaculate amount of seaweed washed to shore. Although a taxi ride away were many beached with clear blue water So it wasn't really a problem It was actually awesome for a change of scenery l The worst part were the invisible mosquitos that lodged in the room,tire me to Pisces My body looks like a heroin attic with the plethora of me sabbed furocious bites. One of my bites has to be a spider with an reaction that swelled and created boils leaving a 2nd degree like burn mark Then the little red ants or whatever they where that clustered on the deck table and inside dresser Maybe need to look into outsourcing pest control and raid is Not It

As requested we had a ground floor room which allowed easy access to the pool and beach. Staff were warm, friendly and extremely helpful.

Staff helpful & friendly

Room a little dated, not much of a beach at front, seaweed an issue.

Beautiful sea views large comfortable rooms friendly staff. Transport convenient to move around.

We had an amazing stay at the hotel. The beach is beautiful, the staff is very lovely, and the hotel is super clean. We also loved the pool. During our stay, it was not crowded and felt very secluded. The view from every room is gorgeous, and we are sure to be back for our family vacation. An excellent value for money, thank you, Coral Sands, for any fantastic stay.

My home away from home. Perfect in every way. Beautiful garden, beach, pool, location and fantastic staff. Kudos to the cook Nikita who provided me with all of my dinners. Total satisfaction and quenched my taste buds with local dishes. Even if it wasn’t on the menu, Nikita made it happen. I also appreciate the kitchen in my room. Making my own breakfast and eating on my balcony was a great bonus. I can’t wait to return. The front desk was also very helpful and professional. Suzanne, Troy and Ruth made everything go smoothly. Thanks for a wonderful vacation!

I chose this hotel because it is on a beach. However, could not use the beach or go swimming, because the beach is/was severely impacted by seaweed, as well as the nearby beaches. This was quite a disappointment. I would advise anyone who likes to go to the beach and swim on their vacation, to check beach conditions before booking

Coral Sands was a wonderful resort for our Couple's Getaway! The room was spacious and tropically decorated. The balcony was perfect for viewing the evening sunset over the Caribbean. Jerry greeted us at the door upon our late arrival. Nikki was a wonderful hostess and cook for our breakfast in the restaurant. The area has many restaurants, grocery stores, and souvenir shop. We were there during the off-season and had the pool to ourselves most days. We will definitely be back!

Friendly staff, amazing view from rooms, and spacious rooms. Clean

Coral Sands is big in size but only has 21 rooms all with a balcony overlooking the ocean. This has to be the best hotel staff in Barbados. The hotel is convenient to everything. The rooms are bigger than most studios and you can walk 6 blocks to the supermarket and cook your meals back in the room. I recommend this hotel to anyone going to Barbados.

Great small hotel. Yes it looks a bit tired but the rooms are huge and its spotlessly clean. The staff are very friendly and helpful. June is the off season so the hotel was extremely quiet. Most days we were the only people round the pool. We wouldn't hesitate to visit again.

Useful kitchenette and provision of beach towels

It was clean and the staff was pleasant.

The hotel was out dated. It felt like I was stuck in a Brady Bunch rerun. The "restaurant" was horrible. There was no activities. It was ocean front, but not beach front. There was a barb wire fence separating the hotel from the "beach". The "beach" was covered with seaweed and biting bugs.

Got recommended this place for breakfast by a local sunbed rental guy, Richard. We weren’t residents of the hotel but we were taken the 100 m or so from our beach beds to the hotel entrance and shown to the cute breakfast room. Plenty of choices at reasonable prices. Served by a lovely lady. I think was called Nicki? Highly recommended.

Check in was fast, we were early and didn't have to wait for our room. It is very central to the grocery store, restaurants, banks. Small resort on a small quiet beach, beside The Sands Resort. Able to walk the beach from our location to the public Worthing Beach almost to St. Lawrence Gap. The off-shore reefs provide shelter from the waves which made it easier to enjoy the water. We had an oceanview room which was spacious and the view from our deck was amazing. Housekeeping and front desk staff were great. There is a pool bar and restaurant on site. We went off season in April/May and it was quiet and always able to find a chair by the pool. Would definitely go back to Coral Sands.

The Coral Sands was centrally located for restaurants, shops and the beach. The room was large and well equipped.

Close to sea which experienced a lot of seaweed. The pictures shown are not entirely accurate. No more trees. Also, the room was a little tired and for celebrations they are not prepared for champagne requests or a nice room service breakfast. Booking.com also incorrectly advised that our stay included breakfast. It did not and Booking.com have not had the courtesy of even replying. Highly unimpressed with booking.com. No reply

Big rooms and really clean. Good kitchen area. Nice balcony, swimming pool and beach loungers all good. Only big issue is there are not enough sun beds and therefore subbed wars occurs (plenty of room for some more subbed though) There are signs about not doing this but not enforced. Great location right on little beach but 2 mins walk to bigger beach. Lovely staff

Beach area is small; comfortable loungers and umbrellas are mostly pool-side. Music from surrounding restaurants and cars on laneway is loud especially on Saturday nights. Staff are wonderful. Self-catering facilities are perfect.

Property needs updating Do not like barbed wire fence between pool and beach!

Girls get away it’s was fabulous very clean and friendly

Very nice, quiet and clean resort. We had a pleasant stay in April, definitely recommend this resort.

First time in Barbados and was impressed with this hotel . Great location beside St Lawrence Gap which is full of restaurants and bars - opposite Worthing square and close to supermarkets/shops. Up the road from Oistins and Bridgetown. Regular transport to anywhere on the island on the doorstep of the hotel (the minibuses are a fun experience and cost just 3.50 BD) Room very spacious and nice relaxing pool area with access to the beach which was great for an early morning swim. The staff are a credit to the hotel, all three staff members we met at reception were friendly, kind, helpful when we had queries and wanted to know how our stay was. If I was to return to Barbados wouldn’t hesitate to say here again !

Location and room overlooking the sea. Wonderful to listen to the sound of he waves whilst lying in bed. For night time activity it was only a short walk to St Lawrence whilst the promenade and Bridgetown were in easy reach going the other way.

Coral Sands is a nice property with big rooms, great beds and quiet after 10 pm. The band next door stopped at 10. The hotel is on the south shore and the ocean can get rough. We did have problems with lots of Sargasum seaweed. One negative was the fence and barbwire around the back and pool. Made it look like a prison.

Everything was fine and the staff was very helpful 💯☺️☺️☺️

The hotel was well situated and within a short walk to the Gap. It was tidy and our room was quite large with a well equipped kitchen. The staff were very helpful and courteous.

It would have been nice to have several restaurants closer to the hotel. There were very few places to go for breakfast or lunch. The beach was lovely but we couldn’t walk any distance along the beach. A central hub of shops and restaurants close to the hotel would have been nice.

We have stayed at the Coral Sands for MANY years, and have generally been very pleased with the rooms, location, service, etc. But I have to say that the public areas of the hotel have suffered in recent years. During COVID a hideous barbed wire fence was installed overlooking the sea, giving a feeing of a concentration camp. Then the whole area was denuded of its beautiful palm trees, making it even uglier. No other nearby resort is treeless. Anyone staying by the pool will be turned off by this. Then a huge plexiglass screen was placed at the reception desk, reminding me of a pawn shop. Someone is making very bad decisions, and I worry that the deterioration will continue.

What a truly wonderful place Another place I want to keep secret because we want it all to ourselves...this little hidden gem It is a beautiful old ,plantation building with character and charm, better for the quiet holiday break, families and couples, singles, all will find peace tranquility and wonderful service here. The view from you balcony is the Atlantic which is 20 yards from the hotel. Pool, poolbar and a feeling of serenity and security was amazing The staff are welcoming informative and really want you to have a great time. There is a restaurant for breakfast lunch and snacks by the pool You can go self catering here there are shops around to get groceries The rooms have a great feel, spacious, well stocked, and clean beyond belief The maids, and cleaning staff do such a great job, subtle, and helping they work so hard and greet you with good morning and interest in you. Towels and bedding changed regularly Kettle Microwave utensils, glasses, cups mugs, (bring washing up liquid) Tv Wifi I had no complaints You can swim with the turtles on the beach eat in the two/three bar resturants along the beach. Located 10 minute walk from St Lawrence Bay, not far from all th e sites Oistins, Boatyard,Bridgetown, St Lawrence Gap (restaurants and bars) its a great base for your holiday. Cannot thank the reception staff and bar restaurant cleaning staff we had a great time, and wanted for nothing as everything was provided...especially your welcoming smiles.

Very small resort with few ammenities . More like a condo than hotel Older facility but very well maintained and clean Hotel management were not overly friendly which was somewhat disappointing beibg in the hospitality industry

While the rooms and view were very nice, the limited dining options and poor hours for the bar and pool were a big drawback. Barkeep was almost never at the bar, so getting a drink was nearly impossible. The pool, bar and restaurant closed by like 6 or 7. The beach is extremely small and we could never find anyone to give us the chairs that were locked up. There is a good selection of bars and dining about a 10 min walk away, but the walkways are very close to the cars flying by. Overall, if youre willing to walk or drive to other beaches, it was an ok stay, but dont go expecting a great beachfront experience at this hotel.

Very good in just about every respect. Only very slight gripe would be pool is a bit small ( but the warm clear sea is a great alternative !) , also would have been nice to have teabags/coffeebags made available and refreshed each day, but hey, the supemarket is round the corner !

We loved the facility and the service! Restaurant food could be more variety with fresh options. Also photos advertised DO NOT show the barbed wire fence which surrounds the pool-felt a bit like being in prison in paradise.

The staff were excellent and the room comfortable and clean. Air conditioning was excellent

Definitely more sun beds and the removal of the chain link fence with the barbed wire on the top this soils the view of the beach and the beautiful blue sea. You feel like you’re living in a core toon Centre. No other hotels have this fencing it looks awful.Also the pictures showed the sun beds having cushions so we were disappointed to find the there weren’t any.

Coral Sands is a lovely oasis from the hustle and bustle that surrounds it. Quiet and friendly and very personable. The staff is fantastic. Front desk is very knowledgeable and helpful when trying to make plans. Housekeeping is awesome and Nikkita is fabulous! The location is close to restaurants, food trucks, groceries, shopping, beaches, everything! And the views from your private veranda is perfect.

Room was clean and adequate. Hotel is very limited with helping you plan anything or give advise. Pool bar and restauarant not promoted and also limited. Driving in the area is dangerous. You should know this before you rent a car. Very congested

We loved the location near the supermarkets, bars and special restaurants which we have been visiting at. The resort is near the beutifui beach and a pool. We would like to thank Mr Jerry who helped us to stay free until 13:00 pm because I needed to get my exams back from the clinic. Thanks to Mr Ken too for his help. We absolutely recommend staying in this resort.

This is a very clean and tidy hotel. The rooms have 2 beds, lunge area, lovely balcony if you are high up. There is an en-suite with shower, toilet and 2 hand basins. The kitchen is plenty big enough with a microwave, kettle toaster, coffee maker, sink, just about what you need apart from an oven / air fryer. The cleaning staff do a great job of keeping the rooms and hotel clean and tidy, Nikki in the restaurant and bar is very friendly as are the 2 guys on reception. the hotel has 31 rooms but only 22 pool loungers and 10 parasols. Unless you get up at 5am to put towels down don't expect a sunbed / lounger. The hotel management does nothing to police this, in fact some towels were left out overnight and the guests didn't turn up till after 1200 noon. The management say they are looking into this problem, but they have been saying it for months. This is the only thing that stops me from visiting again.

Clean and comfortable. All rooms face sea and directly on beach. Only about 20 rooms so get to know other guests round the small pool. No evening restarraunt but serves food during day. Convenient for st Lawrence gap and food trucks at Worthing.

We stayed for a fortnight, had a great holiday and met some lovely people. The location is brilliant, with lovely beach, good sized clean and functional rooms that although dated, do the job very well. Views are amazing, especially the higher rooms which we were lucky enough to be allocated. Easy walking distance to great bars and restaurants. What lets the hotel down, and is so avoidable as there is plenty of space available, is the lack of sun beds around the pool. It just means people get irritated and it can create bad feeling which quite honestly isn’t what anyone wants on their holidays! We witnessed this 1st hand on more than 1 occasion. Sort this out for goodness sake Coral Sands, it should be very easy….then you’d get 5*s from me!

Well located hotel near bars and restaurants. Room was spacious with nice kitchen area. Excellent Sea View. Friendly Staff. The issue as reported by many is the lack of sunbeds & the management’s unwillingness to resolve the problem of all the sunbeds often being reserved by 6.30 am

Nice quiet hotel. Well located, within walking distance of many restaurants including St Lawrence Gap. Large rooms all facing the sea. Small pool area but nowhere near enough sunbeds - although room around pool to have more. During our 10 night stay sunbeds were all reserved by 7am! This could easily be resolved by purchasing more sunbeds - we can’t understand why the hotel hasn’t done this! There are sunbeds on the beach at a cost of 30 bajan dollars per day.

Wonderful hotel sitting directly in the beach. Walking distance to numerous restaurants in Worthing , Rockley and the Gap. Spotlessly clean and very helpful staff. Pool area has great views of the beach and evening sunsets. Super beach for swimming with several beach bars serving great food.

Nice pool area Good kitchen facilities

Shower is tired Inadequate arrangement for sitting on the beach Very loud music daily until late at night coming from the next door hot

Do not stay here if you enjoy an unobstructed view of the beautiful ocean. There is an ugly chain link barbed wire fence surrounding the pool deck. They also have very high bushes that block the view. They also bring in the umbrellas if the wind blows. We were told (lie) that there was high winds in the area so they brought them in. A walk down the beach showed no other hotel brought theirs in. 4 out of the 5 days we were there, we didn't have an umbrella. They don't have beach chairs either. You have to rent them. So stay at another hotel for better views. Also rooms are very out dated. They were clean but just old looking. There is a nice balcony to sit on. Location is nice. Several restaurants and stores close by.

In a very nice quiet location right on the beach

All great

Location just perfect right on the beach and a short stroll to the gap ,bars places to eat etc.Rooms are huge with loads of storage which is hard to find these days ,all cooking and self catering equipment needed,great views with large balconies all facing the ocean.

Liked everyrhing .
