The Soco Hotel - Adults Only

We loved thatbit was on the boardwalk.

The hotel is cute, but if you have mobility issues it is very important to note that there is no elavator, the beach is not swimmable and has seaweed. The staff are amazing and the rooms are spacious and the AC is perfect!

Intimate and private

The hotel was lovely. The staff were very friendly and personable, making it a point to learn our names.

Need to upgrade

Staff were amazingly friendly. Location is great with easy access to beach, surf shop, restaurants and bars. Very clean room and grounds. A/C worked perfectly. Only drawback was a lack of hot water in the shower. Staff tried to repair the water water and it improved slightly. Not a deal breaker:)

Overpriced accommodations. Defintely not worth the price tag. Excellent personnel, but the property's pictures don't match reality (motel reality with hotel prices). Only three TV channels worked, the others didn't work. Rooms are small, outdated, isn't properly furnished (outlets are weirdly placed, bathroom shower only had space for soap and nothing else) and the water was luke warm - we did the "toilet flush" hack to warm the water up. I requested body towels after housekeeping closed (around 10PM) and was told by the front desk that they don't have the key to the room even though it's in their welcome letter to reach out to them after hours. Food offerings are basic and limited, they ran out of items 2 hours into their breakfast and lunch timeframes. They also give you kid sized glasses for drinks. We spent most of our stay eating at outside restaurants. Best part was the accessibility to the boardwalk and walkability to other restaurants. We would've suffered if it wasn't for that.

Excellent customer service from the moment you arrive on property. Delicious food included with the stay. 10/10 would stay again.

The area where the hotel is in is not upscale, it’s run down. The mattresses and pillows are very old and look very used. The amenities are outdated and cheap. The staff was excellent and friendly. Especially Trudy. Outstanding and super friendly. The food was fine.

Check in was quick, and informative, staff very friendly and pleasant,, and concerns were addressed promptly.

Spectacular place and location. Food was amazing each and every day and never had a bad meal The people were amazing ....special note to Shane , Zack, Michelle at the bar who make the experience and the stories and conversation at the bar . Highly recommend and we will be going back Thanks to all at the Hotel who went out of their way to welcome us

We had a blast! We celebrated ten years of marriage and could not have been happier with the service and staff. We had many options on site and off. The beach behind the hotel was simply amazing :)

We only stayed at this property for one night so perhaps it gets better if you are staying longer and become more familiar to the staff. However that being said, if I stay for one night or 14 I do expect a certain level of, if not friendliness, at least professionalism! We did arrive early and although we couldn’t book into the room, which was fine, we were allowed to use the pool area. I asked if we could leave our luggage somewhere and had to leave it in the lobby which I didn’t feel was as secure as I would have liked. We got the welcome email and read that you have to book for the evening meal. Therefore my husband went to the restaurant area to do so. The woman who was there was quite rude and told my husband as he didn’t have a room number he couldn’t book. This was eventually sorted out but only after my husband and the woman went to reception so she could confirm we were checked in. We eventually waited until 3.30pm to get into our room and could only eat or drink if we paid for it. Which is fair enough. The room was fine but on opening one of the drawers I found a long black curly hair, definitely not mine! There are insufficient sunbeds around the pool (all Of which get taken very early in the morning and on the beach there are a few but you have to drag them along yourself. The beach is not very nice sand stony, small pieces of shell. To enter sea

The service and the facility were horrible.

This property was a complete disaster. The bedrooms smell like mold &

Our stay was great! I don’t think you can beat the view from each room! It feels like you are on top of the water. Yes, the beach is small, minimal shade and limited chairs but the shallow water is nice. The food is excellent. The menu changes every two days. They did a great job with my gluten free diet and everything I had was amazing. The resort sits at the end of the boardwalk which is great to walk daily. The location is great and close to everything. You do have some road noise but we didn’t mind. The showers are more like luke warm temperature but pressure was good. The rooms are very clean, bright and spacious. The staff is beyond amazing. Everyone was pleasant and smiling. This resort is a small boutique which we loved. Definitely a great place to stay and great value. We would happily return to Soco!

A gem of a hotel, yards from the sea with a small beach next door . Staff were so friendly and the food was great . Lovely location with the boardwalk right outside, for walks along the seafront, taking you past several bars and restaurants and on to Rookley beach. Easy to get anywhere as the ZR bus stops outside, including Bridgetown and the Oistins fish market. Would definitely recommend. Special thanks to Michelle, Zac and Christian at the bar , Truly our housekeeper and the numerous friendly restaurant and reception staff too.

Expedia advertises beachfront and ocean views from the restaurant. This is not accurate in our view. Food was very good. Service also very good except some younger servers who were full of attitude. If you don't like your job then quit. Bartenders did a great job. Hotel should be offering Prosecco as a base drink. And a slightly better wine. The resort is not cheap and these misses are not aligned with your price point. Stock the rooms with water and soda water. Expedia advertises room service but it's never spoken about. And it seemed like we had to wrestle water away from the bar. Barbados is hot and people need regular water in their rooms. Rearrange the pool seating to allow more loungers. Maybe consider changing the setup from day to evening if needed. Kimberly is a lovely manager. Please take this information to help Soco do even better. We had a lovely time and will be back. Maybe even to Soco

First time in a smaller hotel. Was good. Pretty noisy being right on main rd. Food was good. Very clean

We've just had a nice 10 night break at the Soco Barbados, and enjoyed our stay - the positives are the 'a al carte dining' as part of the AI package. The staff are very friendly and welcoming too, and I must give extra praise to the chefs for the excellent fayre. A big shout out also to Zac & Chris who keep the rum glasses flowing. And finally, a shout out to Michelle for her legendary fun rum tasting event - I cannot think of a better way to start a Wednesday morning @ 10:30! Overall, a good stay, slightly spoilt by the sargassum (seaweed) which is completely out of the Hotel's control. The Hotel and rooms are kept clean and tidy however, the rooms could do with a slight freshening up.
