Booked this after reading the rave reviews on here for a ten day trip. The hotel is ok, but I really couldnt see what all the fuss was about ? Rooms are large and high roofed, and looking pretty tired to be honest. Towels very grubby and off coloured. The location is good, but the beach adjacent was unusable due... more

Just returned from a week at Blue Orchids. This was my 13th trip to the island but the first at this hotel...previously stayed at Southern Palms in The Gap area. Overall a good spot...very basic but you also don't pay for a bunch of stuff that you often don't use. We had a 2 bedroom, single bath in E block... more

My husband and I have just returned from a wonderful 9 night stay at the Blue Orchid Hotel. We booked flights and accomodation separately (the exact same holiday would have been £1,000 more with Virgin holidays). We booked our flights through Opodo and the hotel through British Airways The hotel and grounds are exactly how we imagined, very clean and... more

We picked this hotel as a change from all inclusive resorts. as the other reviews say. the beach is small the sea and waves are strong. the road is busy 24/7. the location is good the rooms are ok. the cleaning is generally good. basically its a 2 star hotel thats good value for money. When we stayed the hotel... more

We recently returned from our vacation in Barbados, the hotel was nice, and the location was just perfect. The staff were helpful, as we had expected by reading previous reviews. Although we had some issues at check-in (we wernt told the prices were in bajan dollars, so it appeared riddiculously expensive) the activites director Reggie was amazing. He would call... more

Blue Orchids Stayed at Blue Orchids for the first time for 2 weeks in February 2009. Very good value for the money. We had a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom,ground floor apartment fronting on the gardens and pool. We were not bothered by the busy road other than when it came time to cross the street but found the Barbados drivers... more

We just returned home after a most enjoyable stay at the Blue Orchids. There were three of us and we were in a one bedroom apartment with full cooking facilities. All utensils, dishes etc. are suppled and we had all our breakfasts and most of our lunches in our room. There is a small pool area with chairs overlooking the... more

I was a bit nervous about going to this place as it is only 2 stars and so I wasn't expecting much but we were very pleasantly surprised. The location was great, right on the beach (although this beach isn't the best for swimming - head round the corner to Rockley Beach for calmer waters). The swimming pool was small... more

As we do before making any trip to a new vicinity, we consulted Trip Advisor in search of a hotel. Blue Orchids appeared to have everything we were seeking; location, spacious accommodations and value. We were delighted to find it was exactly as we had hoped! Upon arrival we were pleasantly greeted and shown to our room E104. This three... more
