What a great hotel the staff are amazing with the kids and so many activities for the kids to do. It is a 5 minute walk to the beach and lots of local shops. The food is different every try and the deserts are amazing. There is always something to eat. All inclusive drinks are available all day and not sure when they stop. I would definitely tell people to choose this hotel. It also has WiFi!!!

Came with a family of 6 for 10 days. Cleanliness amazing. Rooms cleaned daily with fresh towels and bedding. Cleaners very friendly. Always plenty of food but very repetitive as expected with an all inclusive. Be aware of the plates as they get very hot. My husband burnt his hand on a plate which came up in a massive blister luckily it wasn’t a child. Lifts are a nightmare, 3 lifts for the whole hotel and they’re tiny. Not so bad if you’re on the lower floors but horrendous if you need to get to a higher level. The slide pool is lethal. The flooring is not appropriate for children. If you go to the slide pool ensure your child has slip shoes. Several people were falling over and all they’ve put up is wet floor signs. On 1 slide 2 people cracked their heads open and several people had cracked their head open by the side of the pool from slipping, 1 including my daughter who then had to go to the hospital for stitches. Life guards were amazing and dealt with her absolutely amazingly but the flooring is lethal. Main pool is lovely and clean plenty of activities throughout the day but the lifeguards aren’t the greatest. Paying barely any attention on doing their job as they just stand there talking to each other. No inflatables allowed so don’t bring them with you. All your allowed is a baby ring or arms bands which isn’t the greatest but I would bring a first aid kit as we have seen at least 10 people slip just from walking. Due to our daughters accident we brought her a ring that was accepted as she had her head injury and wasn’t allowed to have her head under water. She used this for a week no problems then one day we had a very rude life guard come up to her and told her to get out of the pool as she wasn’t allowed this. We queried this with the manager as we had been using this for a week to then be told they had an inspection and the rules have changed. No notice or signs had been put up to notify guests of this. Will not be returning to this hotel.

A very good hotel. Excellent staff. Very attentive personnel. They always do their best to make sure guests feel comfortable and well taken care of. I especially want to mention the young team members who entertain the children from morning until evening. Each of them deserves praise. They are doing a great job. The reception staff are also very polite. Everything is great in the restaurant as well. The bartenders are hardworking and respectable employees too. Overall, the hotel is very good. I recommend it to anyone who wants to vacation with children. You can confidently come here — I’m writing this review while staying at the hotel.

We had 10 days holiday in Sol Barbados with husband and 3.5 year old child . I requested lower floor and we got first floor ,which I was very happy and our room was facing to road ,which was again great as I would say that was the quite part . Location is absolutely great ,close to beautiful beach , restaurants,bar and shops . Bus stop 5 min. away . Kids pools are great ,we had a lots of fun on a slides and everywhere was enough sunbeds (no sunbeds war 😃) clean area and enough life guards . Now kids club ....that's probably the best part of our holiday ,the staff is more than fantastic,I would like to name it Sofia ,Marta,Natalia,Sheila ,Naty and Nacho (apologies If I forgot someone ,all guys has been amazing ) from reception I would like to mention Carla,she was very friendly and from bar area that was Jesus who look after us very well . The only down part was the food ,I will give rating 6/10 that definitely could be better but nothing horrible like some people describe. Overall I would definitely recommend this hotel for families as kids club made our holiday 5*.

My rating for the hotel: 4/5 The reception staff are very friendly and their service is excellent. Housekeeping is great — our room was cleaned daily, and the bathroom towels were changed unless we requested not to have the room serviced that day. The hotel is very family-friendly and suitable for those with children. There are evening activities on stage and also pool activities during the day. The bar service is excellent and the staff are patient even during busy times. The food is clean and varied, offering seafood, fish, chicken, beef, pork, and also vegetables and drinkes. However, I would rate the quality 7.5/10. The room was comfortable and nice, with excellent soundproofing. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience. The beach is about five minutes away. The negative points: • The elevator is crowded, especially during peak hours or mealtimes. • Sometimes when entering the buffet, you have to wait a few minutes for families to be organized and the crowd managed. • Also, the bathroom door in our room was old and difficult to close. But overall, it was a good experience, and I would visit again.
