Allamanda Beach Boardwalk Hotels

"We booked an ocean view room, but it was a side view over the pool. That said, it was not a huge issue as we enjoyed the property so much and were rarely in the room. Side note: there are local vans that take you around for 3.50 pp (Barbados Dollars). We partculatly loved the Saint Lawrence Gap area. "

"This hotel is fairly new and we have a nice boardwalk by the beach for morning and evening stroll. The main pool is very nice and our kids love swimming in it. Our room is very quiet and you can barely hear waves from the beach. "

"A great one-night stay after disembarking from a cruise. The hotel and room were spotless. The room was huge! There was a full kitchen which sadly we did not have the opportunity to use. Many rooms have balconies and outdoor seating areas. The wifi was excellent, and the TV was smart with loads of viewing options. There is a nice small pool in the central court, and the beach is a 2 minute walk. There is a decent mall with a pharmacy/grocery store that sells just about everything you need. Lots of dining options and beachside bars are nearby. We were able to check in early too. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend for all types of travelers."

"A DUMP - 30-years past its prime. Rooms and furnishings are worn, damaged and unclean. Staff were all unfriendly save for one valet; bartenders’ attitudes were bordering rude, as if they couldn’t be bothered. One restaurant whose food choices forced us to go offsite. Don’t be fooled by the pictures! "

"Had a wonderful time staying at the Soco Hotel. Perfect mid-range hotel in a very prime location that sits right on the boardwalk. The staff were super friendly and accommodating. Shout out to bartenders Zack, Shawn, and Tarik for the great company & drinks at the bar! The view from the rooms was spectacular - just like the photos online. The rooms themselves were very nice and tidy; bathrooms slightly outdated but it still met our needs .The food was delicious, although not buffet-style so if you need late night snacks be prepared to stock up a little stash incase you get hungry later. AC was always consistent and effective in the rooms. Would definitely visit again! "

"The place was wonderful. We had a great experience Plenty of onsite amenities-snorkeling, kayaking, and paddle boarding.I only wish their was more seating at the pool- had to get there before 7 to secure a seat"

"Only there for 1 night so could have used some dish soap. But seemed fully equipped with dishes, etc"

"Amazing staff , simple spot that the staff and crew working at makes you feel right at home, couldn’t ask for a better stay and vibe. Thanks :)"

"My husband and I recently stayed at the Hilton Barbados Resort, and overall, the experience was average at best. The bedroom itself was nice and comfortable, but the bathroom definitely needs updating. The bathtub never appeared fully clean, which made us uncomfortable enough that we chose not to use it during our stay. The beach is truly beautiful—large, spacious, and one of the highlights of the property. However, the service significantly fell short. There was no consistent poolside or beachside service for food or drinks, and staff were rarely visible throughout the day. The pool area also needs attention, as the concrete is visibly cracking, and the hot tub was out of service for the entirety of our stay. Each morning, even as early as 8 AM, there were no towels available for guests at the pool or beach, which was frustrating. As for dining, both Lighthouse Terrace and Beach Bar offered food that was average and did not stand out. Additionally, small details were disappointing—such as the weekend snow cone offering at 2 PM, which we attempted to enjoy, only to find they had already run out of ice. Overall, while the location and beach are beautiful, the service, maintenance, and overall experience did not meet expectations."
