"The pool is amazing and the staff"

"The soco hotel staff were amazing,Zack, Shane, Terry, Trudie and all the waitresses made our stay special. Please tell the chefs their food was fantastic every day. The small sandy beach with crystal clear water was only a foot step away. The bus stop right at the front of the property makes getting around so easy. 100% recommend this hotel for an ideal introduction to Barbados."

"Not worth the money. This hotel gets very little maintenance from what we observed. A few things didn't work like the sidewalk lights leading to the Castle view restaurant. You walk at night in pitch dark. You need to use the flashlight on your phone to ensure you don't trip, it's so dark. According to staff, lights have not been working for months. For wine they show 4 different kinds of wine available in both red and white but they only keep 2 of each on stock and not even the ones listed on their menu. Floors are cleaned daily but walls are another thing. It seems to have been a long time since they were cleaned. Pools and food were good. apart from that, not recommended. "

"We stayed for 3 nights. There was a little inconvenience for getting our room when we got there. But overall, we got a clean room, so we were happy for that reason. Beach was not swimmable during our stay, but the pools were opened. Staff are helpful during our stay. "

"The hotel is old and beat up. Not so clean. They are renovating it slowly but it was one of the worst hotels I stayed in in a very long time. And I travel non-stop. Super overpriced for what it is. Only nice thing was the view and the beach. Great spot. Beautiful water and sand. They must renovate this place. "

"Staff was wonderful, rooms were very clean"

"Very nice say. Staff very friendly and accommodating "

"Bar and terrace were dirty with the surf and sargasso, reception was dry, polite but not very welcoming, "

"Overall we were disappointed in our stay here, especially for as much as we paid. The service was poor- our room was not ready when we arrived, we had to ask multiple times for things like drinks or towels, there was no one at the desk to help us book a cab, etc. Compared to other placed we visited on the island, the staff here didn't seem to care about providing a good experience for their guests. The food was fine, but several items on the buffet ran out, and dessert was served with plastic wrap draped over it. It did not feel like a luxury meal. The dining experience overall was lackluster. The room was also adequate, but had several broken elements, the Wifi kept going in and out, Netflix didn't work, and the staff was unwilling/unable to help with any of it. Also, they didn't have chairs down at the beach, and we had to figure out how to get chairs to relax. Overall it was a very disappointing experience for as much as we paid for our stay, and I would NOT recommend it to others."
