The Bar/Lounge at O2 Beach Club & Spa

"Staying at the Ocean Two Resort is like having the keys to a friend’s Barbados beachfront condo—but with a concierge to arrange surfing lessons at Dover Beach and dinner reservations at the on-site open-air restaurant Taste, where the lobster thermidor with braised bok choy is a must-have dish"

"Two beachside pools, including one with a pool bar, for keeping cool under the Caribbean sun"

"At Oasis Bar & Lounge, in the lobby, you can have a seat and a cool drink while enjoying the view, waiting for someone or something, having a nightcap…or just because"

"The rooms are extremely modern and updated, especially for Barbados, and the amenities are upscale – a sleek lobby lounge, scenic rooftop terrace, lagoon-like pool, and a gorgeous beachfront"

"This seven-storey, beachfront 'condominium-hotel' has sets the bar high for accommodation on the south coast"

"There are no connecting rooms, and smoking is only allowed in open-air public spaces or the terraces, which have cushioned lounge chairs"
