Charming but Severely Outdated
The Accra Beach Hotel has a charming location and friendly atmosphere, but unfortunately, the overall experience was disappointing due to the outdated facilities and lack of attention to detail.
While the air conditioning and Wi-Fi worked well (a blessing in the Barbados heat), many basic amenities fell short. My room had a Jacuzzi tub, which was a nice feature in theory but it didn’t work. There was no microwave in the room, and the ice machine was out of service for the duration of my stay.
The hotel lacks a lifeguard at the pool, and there was no music or ambiance in the common areas, which made everything feel flat and underwhelming. Pool chairs were tattered and visibly dirty, which was hard to overlook. Lighting in the room was poor, making the space feel gloomy at times.
Housekeeping was minimal beds were made, but no thorough cleaning seemed to take place. A refresh or modernization of both the rooms and the service approach would go a long way in making this property live up to its potential.
