We had a wonderful stay for 5 days at Coconut Court near the end of August. It is not too far from the airport, and the hotel was able to arrange a van/taxi to come pick us up. We were greeted upon arrival with exceptional service from Lawrence. (Also shoutout to Margot at the front desk). The room was spacious, clean and modern. The washroom was quite nice with good pressure and temperature in the shower. Our room had a back door that led onto the pool deck. We had a covered patio as well with two chairs and a table that provided shade and some privacy. The floors above us all had balconies as well. The hotel features 3 restaurants: Coco's, which serves breakfast, Charlie's Beach Bar, for lunch and Jake's Bar & Grill across the street, which serves lunch and dinner. Overall, the food was great. I personally loved the steak fries, Fish Cutters, and the Club sandwich. ||The hotel has a massive beachfront with a coral reef and lots of marine life. (Recommend bringing goggles or a snorkel). The beach has a great mix of sun and shade, as there are many trees to provide relief from the sun during peak hours. They also have plenty of beach chairs/loungers to use. There's also a pool that's open during daylight hours. ||The hotel is located in the Christ Church district and has a great location for both walking and short taxi rides to many attractions. If you walk down the beach to the left, there's a boardwalk which brings you to a bunch of shops and Acura beach. If you go to the right, you can walk down to the Hilton and enjoy the waves there. Just a short drive away, you can get to Bridgetown for Catamaran tours and also Carlisle Bay, which has calm, turquoise waters and is great for watching sunsets.||The hotel also features a gift shop, which has many essential supplies and sweet treats. Also, an activity centre which can help with booking excursions and car rentals. They also have snorkels and some beach items. The front desk is also very helpful and can book taxis for you or tell you where to visit. We even approved a late checkout since our flight was delayed going home. I recommend ZR's which is $3.50 BBD for any distance on its route (mix of a bus and taxi, follow a set route but will pick up/drop off anywhere rather than set stops), but it's not for everyone. Make sure to only take Taxis or ZRs with the (ZR/ZM) license plates as those are official. ||Finally, the wedding we attended was absolutely fantastic. It ran so smoothly, and the staff did a wonderful job setting everything up on the beach and hosting a perfect ceremony. They had a mini-bar setup on the beach afterwards, followed by a delicious dinner in the restaurant and an open bar afterwards.||I truly enjoyed this family-run hotel and the beautiful culture Barbados has to offer! Thank you to the amazing staff who made our experience even better! We will be back.
