Inch Marlowe Vacations from $1,089

We have just returned from our first stay at Cobblers Cove, and our first visit to Barbados. The staff are a true credit to the hotel and we heartily thank them for one of our most magical vacations ever. In particular, we appreciated the hospitality and warmth shown to us by Juanne, Alea, Kennedy, and Gregory. We are already plotting our return! The property is stunning. Walk along the shore and hunt for sea glass. The breakwater allows for easy swimming in the gorgeous Caribbean Sea. We saw hummingbirds, the island's iconic monkeys, and sea turtles just off the shore. Don't miss the boat ride with Roger and the garden tour with Kennedy, both complimentary! The sunbeds were over-the-top comfortable. Pool attendants circulated with ice water, cool towels, and sorbet throughout the afternoon. The interiors throughout are beautifully curated. Our room was lovingly cleaned each day and we were spoiled by the turndown service. If we were being really picky, we felt the pool could have been skimmed more often. Breakfast each morning (as well as Afternoon Tea) are included in your stay. We enjoyed both! We did note that the dinners are lacking for the cost, but find that typical of most resorts, even high-quality ones. We'd probably skip the Tuesday evening BBQ and take dinner at one of the nearby restaurants instead (Fishpot is excellent!) if we were to do it over. That said, the entertainment in the evenings was delightful, including steel drum musicians and a jazz singer.

Pros:the staff in restaurants were very nice, food at menu restaurants was very good, nightly shows was nice except the last night. Cons: the hotel was very old a lots of steps every where we go and it is not handicap friendly at all there was no elevator at this hotel , there was a step in the gym also.The Buffett was very limited every day not a many options .The equipment at gym was so old and rusted so as in the shower in the room the curtain was so old and the rod was rusted.there was no sanded beach in front of hotel so we had to go the other side to use their sanded beach, because our hotel was very rocky . there was not enough help at the bars or breakfast area, so they were always behind . so with all this said as I told the receptionist at the check out ,I don't think I go back again.

The staff was exceptionally friendly and professional. Location is great if you want peace and quiet; it’s not near too many other resorts. There are clubs nearby, outdoor which allows you to enjoy the outdoor air and environment. You have to take a taxi to go from the resort to downtown or walk maybe quarter a mile to bus transportation, which was easy to use.

Perfect location, great entertainment, all restaurants were open & food was great! Close to shopping places. Hotel provided free rides to different beaches because of the seaweed. Staff was wondering & my beach front room still had amazing views
