“Better than our Honeymoon!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 15, 2013

We stayed at Ocean Two for my birthday and our first wedding anniversary. From the moment we walked in we were treated to the best service and hospitality that we've ever experienced. All the staff are fantastic and couldn't do enough for us throughout our stay - I can't thank the front desk staff enough for helping my husband with all the birthday and anniversary surprises - they really pulled out all the stops. The birthday and anniversary notes and the non-alcoholic champagne were perfect touches that made our stay that much more special. The rooms were amazing - we were surprised at how big they were. We had the one bed ocean view apartment which is worth every penny. We didn't go all inclusive but found there were plenty of great restaurants to try out - The Beach House, Tapas, Atlantis and of course Chefette for fast food on the go! The hotel staff were great at recommending and booking restaurants for us. We even booked all our excursions through the hotel as the staff made everything so seamless.

Highly recommend Ocean Two and we'll definitely be back - see you all again soon!
Mr and Mrs Bhogal :-)

Room Tip: Go for the ocean view apartments - worth every penny!

“Beyond service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 15, 2013

My husband and I stayed at this hotel to celebrate our ruby wedding in February. We were wowed by the room and location, we have been to Barbados before and already had a high opinion of the place and people but Ocean two went beyond our expectations
.not only did they acknowledge our anniversary and send up wine and greetings . Three days into our stay I received dreadful news from home (Bereavement ) for various reasons we could not get home but for the next four days the staff were amazing We were treated as friends not guests and I must mention Lisa and Lana especially who really cared for me as well as other staff ( Curtis Sheeren Shantelle Shannelle are just a few ). This hotel is the best in Barbados and I cannot recommend it highly enough Thank you all for your kindness we will be back in better circumstances

Room Tip: High room oceanfront is really special

“Lovely Hotel .”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 14, 2013

We arrived at O2 after a week on the Thomson Dream which was wonderful. Our 2nd week was our chill out week which it certainly was. Our hotel room was amazing couldnt fault it whatsoever. You had every thing you needed there even a washer, tumble dryer and a dish washer. Its right on the beach the sea was a bit to rough for me to swin in but the pool was great lovly and warm. Most of the staff were really friendly and made us really welcome the only issues we had were we didnt feel as if they liked all inclusive customers coz we had to keep asking them what was on the all inclusve tarriff. Some of the food was included in it but alot of it had supplements added to it which we didnt appreciate as we paid alot of money for this holiday. Also alot of the drinks were not included in the all inclusive package either and again we had to ask what was in the package. The bar closed at 11 oclock which isnt good when your on holiday. They had a lovely bar there and it was such a shame that it was shut so early coz it was a good place to mix with other guests. People say you could go down the gap to have a drink but being on all inclusive we didnt think we'd have to coz we thought the bar would be open till at least 1.00. The food was very repeatative and we ended up eating out a few nights which was all expence again. If you do go to the O2 hotel I wouldnt go ther on an all inclusive tarriff you're best doing a room only deal then you can please yourself. The breakfasts werent too bad only problem there was it was cold by the time you got to your table and the cups of tea were always cold aswell. There's no entertainment at all there at night either. After coming off the ship which had such alot going on it was a bit dissappointing to find there was nothing at all going on here at night. Like I said the hotel,rooms and location was wonderful just a shame about the issues thst we had.

Room Tip: Try too get a sea view room as the views from the side of the hotel arent very nice

“Book it Danno!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 14, 2013

We have just returned from one of the most relaxing holidays we have ever experienced. From the moment we arrived at this hotel to the time we departed, we were made to feel welcome and that staff were happy to help with a smile. The hotel has many great features, we had an ocean view (which I definately recommend) one bedroom apartment. The apartment was beautifully furnished and I was amazed by the very high quality equiped kitchen, bathroom and bedroom which was cleaned and re-stocked every day.

The hotel is situated on a white sandy beach with sunbeds and umbrellas. The sun terrace has the largest lounger chairs I have ever used they were more like single beds and so comfortable. The hotel staff serve guests on the sun terrace and beach iced water regularly, cool body spritz and cold towels, just what you need when it is hot! There were plenty of clean fluffy towels available all day.

The food was really nice, we had buffet breakfast one morning , lunch each day and an evening meal on the day we arrived and I could not fault any of this.

Directly outside the hotel there are several bars and restaurants which are made up of local shack type restaurants, beach restaurants and a few more upmarket one too, so really something for all pockets and tastes. We dined at Pisces Restaurant on two evenings the food was extremely good and the service was excellent. This was the high end and quite pricey and situated directly on the waterfront in the heart of St Lawrence Gap. We also recommend Johnny Cools which is only a few minutes walk from the hotel and well priced. Cant wait to go back!!

Room Tip: Definately recommend an Ocean View Room which costs more but well worth every penny.

“Perfect hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 13, 2013

I stayed at Ocean Two during the last week of February 2013 for 7 nights. I was really surprised at the size of the suite and can honestly say it's the best I have stayed in the Caribbean. Staff were lovely.

There are lots of restaurants and bars locally so I wouldn't go All Inclusive (which I didn't).

Highly recommended to all.
