My husband, 6 yr old daughter and I stayed at the Amaryllis resort from Dec. 21st through Dec. 31st. The resort has very beautiful grounds with lovely flowers. The staff was very helpful and accommodating. The hotel has a free shuttle that takes you into Bridgetown for shopping. The beach is just great! The swimming area is perfect for small children as it is protected by a barrier of rocks so that during low tide, it is like a big, warm, clear swimming pool. The ocean water was actually warmer than the swimming pool water and we hung out mostly in the ocean. I strongly recommend getting an oceanfront room. We had booked an oceanfront deluxe room from which we had the most beautiful beach and ocean view! We could hear the sound of the waves every time we sat in the balcony - it was just so relaxing. There is a beach snack restaurant that has the usual burgers, sandwiches and drinks. The menu could use some variety but it is convenient. Also, the main restaurant is a little pricey but as we had a rental car, we went out and had all kinds of great food. Also, we explored the island as there is a good road infrastructure - keep in mind, driving is on the left side. Lots of malls, shopping, restaurants, gardens - just a beautiful island, very safe, very gracious and helpful people and just a great experience all in all! I would wholeheartedly recommend the Amaryllis resort and look forward to returning there in the near future.

This was my third stay at Coconut Court. I have used them prior to boarding cruises in Bridgetown so my visits have been short in duration. CC is one of the few resorts on Barbados that I have found will book stays of less than 3 nights during high season at a reasonable price. The rooms are not fancy, but are clean, safe and located right on a beautiful beach. The staff is friendly and helpful and the grounds are well kept. Conveniently located about midway between the airport and Bridgetown, the resort is is within walking distance of several restaurants and is right on the busline to almost anywhere on the island. My only negative is that because the property backs up to a busy road, the rooms can be fairly noisy on weekend nights depending on where it is located in the resort. I would highly recommend Coconut Court to anyone who is looking for a nice (but not fancy) accommodation in a lovely setting at a fair price.
