The hotel

This modern resort is split into two hotels and occupies 300 ft of south coast beachfront. It doesn't matter which hotel you stay in, as you are free to use the facilities at both. This means you can enjoy two swimming pools, an oceanfront restaurant and, of course, a selection of complimentary non-motorised water sports along the lovely white sand beach. Coral Mist and Blue Orchids Hotels have the added advantage of being only a 5-minute drive from the shops, bars and restaurants of the lively St Lawrence Gap.

We have been here four times to participate in the Barbados Open Water Swim Festival, a gathering of 400 swimmers who enjoy the beautiful water around Barbados, the suite with a kitchen is perfect to have breakfast and to prepare snacks. The room is well laid out and we love the porch. It’s right on the beach, although a streak of rough seas kept us from swimming any distance. However, there are a lot of minor annoyances. We reserved a specific room a year ago. It was not available and we had to wait an hour past check-in time for a fourth floor room away from our friend’s room. The fourth floor would have been ok except the elevator broke the second day we were there. They did not have beach towels for us, as they ran out while we were waiting for our room. The hot water never got past tepid. The light in the kitchen was so pale we could barely see. Floor tiles were cracked. When it rained the hallway filled with water and got very slick. Despite all this we booked for next year. Read less

We have just returned back from staying here for 2 weeks, we arrived our conditioning wasn’t working so Tisha went above & beyond to fix unfortunately couldn’t be fixed, so she moved us for our 1st night to a lovely 1 bedroom suite top floor with jacuzzi which really was special as we was celebrating our silver wedding anniversary. We moved to our room next day with air conditioning working. Rooms were cleaned fresh towels every day. You could get beach towels. The staff were great. Booked a car through Reggie The sea was little rough gorgeous beach. Great location. We had breakfast & lunch a few times nice food & service.

It's an easy walk to the supermarket or garage for essentials and buses are along the road outside all the time to take you around the island. Read less

Having stayed in Barbados many times the Coral Mist & Blue Orchids hotel is one of the best self catering hotel's I have stayed at never failing to deliver. A no thrills hotel and a great base to explore Barbados or simply to relax on a glorious beach. The hotel is located at the end of an almost private fabulous stretch of beach on the south coast with plenty of amenities close to hand, bars, restaurants, supermarkets etc. All the rooms are spartan rather than glitzy being meticulously cleaned every day & have very comfortable beds, the kitchens/kitchenettes have large fridges to stock up if need be. A good restaurant over looking the beach offers meals & drinks through out the day. The hotel staff here are excellent, always very attentive & friendly and go the extra mile, nothing is to much bother. Read less
