Cobblers Cove

Another return visit and just as good as we remembered. From the moment we arrived to the time we had to leave, we felt so welcome by the kindness of all of the staff. It feels like visiting friends. As usual the suite was incredible, clean and comfortable. It was so good that we barely left the hotel apart from to walk on the beach or take one of the complimentary boat trips. The food is still the best we have tried in the Caribbean, we went full board and they would quite happily feed you all day if you could manage it! We saw monkeys, turtles, hummingbirds and the gardens are beautiful and extremely well taken care of. The biggest asset of the hotel are the wonderful staff. I can’t remember all of their names, far too many for my memory, but a special mention to some that really stand out. Gregory runs around making sure that everyone is wanting for nothing all day. He must be the fittest man on the island! It was lovely to chat to Johanna the general manager. She made sure we were taken care of. Demanta is a superstar. She is the restaurant manager and although she is there seemingly all of the time, every morning she would look glamorous and give you a lovely welcome. Pearson at the bar is a lovely guy, very polite and attentive. And then there is Virgil! Worth the visit just to see him! He is funny, entertaining, he is SO on the ball, figuring out what everyone likes and wants. And he never stops cleaning the bar. Just watch him. He’ll be busy making cocktails, and the whole time he is wiping down, keeping the bar clean. My wife and I decided that it should be called Virgil’s’ bar, but I’m not sure they will change it! Overall, another fantastic stay. We look forward to our next visit. See you soon.

Lovely relaxing hotel, human scale about 50 rooms set in beautiful gardens with long coast and beach front. We had a really great room, good food different menu each night. Do try the bar, along with regular live music has a team of great mixologists, Virgil is an old school barman, mixes a cool cocktail and can taylor one to your taste, great character and conversation if your in the mood. All the staff went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. Would recommend it.

Our stay at Cobblers Cove was outstanding in all respects. Situated on a beautiful beach with few outside visitors ( all Barbados beaches are public) the views are beautiful. Loungers are set on the terraces for comfort, views, and convenience- wait staff is around frequently to take your order from the bar or to offer water and fruit, towels, etc. Our suite was perfectly clean, nicely decorated, and very comfortable. Bathrooms have modern fixtures and the water pressure is great. French Press with ground coffee is stocked in the kitchenette , along with an electric kettle and a variety of tea. The restaurant was fabulous. It's " open air" with views of the sea from every table. Most important the menu was varied and the quality of the preparation was excellent. We never had a bad meal. The staff was professional and personable. They were very amenable to providing whatever we needed and were a pleasure to interact with. They really made our stay very enjoyable. There was only 1 negative and it was minor- there are lots of birds hanging around the restaurant( but not in it). Tiny squirt water guns are on the tables at breakfast and lunch! A cute idea and they were effective. We will definitely return. Thanks to everyone for your attention to detail!

I never imagined the most perfect resort until I got to Cobbler’s Cove. I have been all over the world and I am already planning our trip back here. Every year for the rest of my life. My best friend got married here. We stayed from Thursday to Monday. The staff is beyond anything you can imagine. They take care of you, they genuinely care about you as a person, not just a guest of their resort. The amenities are beyond anything on their website or what you’d expect. I have never been to a resort with the most caring, kind, attentive, and loving people. Please go to this resort just to meet Virgil. You will never meet anyone like him in your life. He took care of me, noticing I needed something before I even realized I did. In making sure I was happy, knowing exactly what kind of drinks I’d like that I didn’t even know I did. If you looked hungry but didn’t realize it from enjoying the sun, he’d just slide a menu over to you. That kind of care. He shines. I won’t spoil his aura on this review. You just have to meet him. Gregory is also someone you will appreciate. These two men are gems. The rooms and the property were incredible, like something you read in a novel. Everything literally was PERFECT. I give honest reviews on other platforms and there’s always some negative thing I could say about a place. For Cobbler’s Cove, my only negative is that I had to leave this place. You’re probably not even reading this anymore and I could write 500 pages about this resort. The staff, the FOOD oh my goodness the food!!! In 5 days, not one thing I didn’t like and I am a picky eater. It was so fresh, with attentive staff they literally will go above and beyond for you. You forget something? They’ll walk in the middle of the night to the gas (petrol) station and get it for you. I asked a staff member to make sure I was awake the next morning. Instead of calling my room, banging on my door, the gardener just happens to come by in the morning and be raking the sidewalk. It was like the most subtle natural way to wake me up. What kind of resort cares about you that much? This one does and I am obsessed. My best friend’s wedding was unbelievable. If you have any doubt in your mind about this place, my husband would say how picky I am and I have not a single bad thing to say about the property, the staff, nothing! I CANNOT wait to go back. Go put your bare feet on the stone patio by the ocean on a place that feels like historic but modern palace and have the best experience of your life. You won’t regret it. It’s a place to escape to and I will for many years. Please go meet Virgil and Gregory. Go see a gorgeous experience with the staff and food that makes you feel like a VIP guest in their home. Can’t wait to go back. Btw, my friend’s wedding was perfect. Weddings are never perfect. This place made a perfect wedding.

Cobblers Cove was superb. We could not have had a better two weeks. We had an extremely comfortable suite, which was airy, beautifully clean, and had a wonderful terrace overlooking the lush gardens. We loved the bar with its delicious cocktails and the outstanding restaurant. As we were with our children who are in their twenties we also made the most of the fantastic water sports, in particular the waterskiing. Listing all these excellent elements, however, doesn’t really do justice to the special quality of this wonderful place: Cobblers is more than the sum of its parts because of its staff. From gardeners to boat drivers to barmen to housekeeping, every single individual gave us the warmest of welcomes and were attentive and professional. We really cannot recommend Cobblers Cove enough- six stars!

Having stayed in Barbados previously on 4 occasions, we feel we are getting to know the island and the high level of service the island offers, with just a very few exceptions. However, cutting to the chase - Cobblers Cove was perfection in our opinion, location, rooms, gardens, breakfast over looking the sea, but most of all the staff are the best we have ever experienced - lovely, helpful, and genuinely want you to have a great time and your expectations met. I cannot recommend them enough, you wont be disappointed if you pick Cobblers Cove Hotel... Thank you again for hiking me recover my AirPods, and for running such a top class resort... it was a total pleasure staying with you, you provided everything we wanted and had hoped for (including the traditional afternoon tea), and am very happy to provide the best level of review.
