Best Luxury Hotels in Bridgetown

The Rockley opened in March 2024 and celebrates a Bajan vibe with a hip new hotel experience by the Rockley Beach – renowned for its white sands and crystalline blue seas – surrounded by lively bars, signature restaurants, and authentic island experiences.

The 49-room boutique hotel features rooms with colourful local touches including Bajan sayings on throw pillows, the island’s iconic Bus Stop sign, and locally sourced amenities that celebrate Bajan culture. Guests can relax in style in junior suites with kitchenettes or the spacious, 700-square-foot one-bedroom suites with full kitchens and separate living areas.

In the lobby, a new “Art for the People” gallery spotlights local artists through rotating installations. As well as this, the hotel also features a fully-equipped gym, outdoor covered bar, a pool, and an interior dining area adorned with a hand-painted black and white mural showcasing some of Barbados’ most iconic items and symbols, including sheep, dominoes, chickens, and more. To further integrate guests into the local community, the hotel features an innovative “Dine and Sign” programme whereby guests can visit partner restaurants across the neighbourhood and seamlessly charge their meal to their room, just as they would if they were dining at the hotel itself.
