Hotel information
On the west coast of Barbados, Cobblers Cove has drawn guests into its elegant confines ever since the 1980s when it was well established as a luxury boutique hotel.
Combining authentic plantation architecture with modern Bajan charm along soft white sands, this iconic, family-owned property exudes an understated, timeless charm. Paired with a reputation for fine food and impeccable service, your stay will be nothing short of exceptional.
There are many reasons to visit Cobblers Cove. For one, it’s a graceful sanctuary for the discerning traveller. Each of the 40 suites are tastefully and individually decorated to make the most of the tropical gardens and serene ocean. Spacious, air-conditioned and well-appointed, these spaces spill out onto either a terrace or balcony, into the gardens and beachfront beyond.
Additionally, Camelot Restaurant serves up some of the finest food on the entire island, making it a real go-to destination for foodies. Chef Jason Joseph and his team truly know how to make the most of the freshest local produce, including blackened flying fish and mango soufflé.
Not only that, but it’s also the perfect place for a romantic honeymoon or mini moon. Experience sun-kissed days with your loved one and make most of the secluded retreat. Whether it’s an intimate boat ride on the Caribbean Sea or swimming with turtles, our Travel Specialists can help tailor-make your romantic getaway with a host of special activities.
Families can also have fun with complimentary watersports like waterskiing or paddleboarding. There are even tennis, cricket and golf facilities available to keep you all happy during your stay.
Please note, from January to February, children staying at Cobblers Cove must be 12+ years.
Room Options
Choose between 22 Cobblers Upper Circle Suites, six Royal Circle Suites, two Two-Bedroomed Suites, eight Oceanfront Suites and two Exclusive Suites (Colleton at the Great House and Camelot at the Great House).
Upper Circle Suite
Sleeps: 2 Adults , 1 Child
Located in the beautifully kept lush gardens, the Upper Circle Suite provides plenty of shade and privacy. It's also tastefully decorated with a living area that opens to a private balcony or terrace. Choose from ground or first floor suites. These suites are located closest to the hotel lobby.
Royal Circle Suite
Sleeps: 2 Adults , 1 Child
The Royal Circle Suite offers similar features to the Upper Circle Suite rooms, but also benefit from being located closer to the beach. Step out from your louvred doors into the verdant gardens and their swaying palms to the lapping ocean waves beyond.
Ocean Front Suite
Sleeps: 2 Adults , 1 Child
The 500 square foot Ocean Front Suite is set just yards from the oceanfront, affording stunning Caribbean Sea views. Look out at your own Caribbean horizons as the sun dips below the water, the waves lapping at the seashore only metres from your suite. Landscaped patios or terraces lead from the indoors out, making for lazy days spent reclining in lounge chairs and taking in those mesmerising views.
Two-Bedroom Suite
Sleeps: 4 Adults , 1 Child
Ideal for families, the sumptuous Two-Bedroom Suite is ideal for families and groups of friends, with the same features and location as the Ocean View Suites with the addition of a second bedroom and ensuite bathroom. With a truly generous 1,400 square feet of accommodation, this is the perfect choice for the togetherness of a family holiday, but spacious enough for all. Views stretch out through the lush gardens to the Caribbean Sea beyond.
Mile & A Quarter
Sleeps: 2 Adults
A romantic, charming and cosy suite set on the first floor, the Mile & A Quarter is in a category of its own. Climb the staircase leading up to your bedroom and enjoy the sunset-facing veranda.
Camelot at the Great House
Sleeps: 2 Adults
Situated on the top floor of the main building, Camelot at the Great House is a luxuriously appointed suite with a tropical colonial style. Light colours, marble floors and hand-painted furniture are all features of these signature suites. Each air-conditioned bedroom features a canopied bed and a bathroom with his and her showers. French doors lead out to a private roof terrace with captivating sea views.
Colleton at the Great House
Sleeps: 2 Adults
Situated on the top floor of the Great House’s southern turret, Colleton at the Great House connects to the current owners’ ancestors. Across 1,780 square feet of space, this gracious suite is luxuriously appointed with respect to the old colonial plantation house.

Activities & Entertainment
Watersports
Enjoy an amazing variety of complimentary watersports, such as waterskiing, paddleboarding or sailing (you're entitled to a complimentary lesson each day). All the activities on offer include waterskiing, banana boat rides, tubing, snorkelling, kayaking, sunfish sailing, paddle boarding, scuba diving, island fishing and sailing. Whether you want furious fun atop the waves or a slower and more relaxed communion with what lies beneath, the watersports team can help you enjoy Barbados’ wonderful waters.
Sports & Fitness
Tennis, cricket, golf and gym are all available. Knock a ball about with a friend or take lessons on your serve from a pro on the tennis courts. Cricket is big in the West Indies. So, master the sport at the Frank Stephenson Academy during your stay.
Enjoy some of the finest golf courses on the island, including Apes Hill and Royal Westmorland, booked by your concierge. If you want to maintain your fitness routine while away, check in to the well-equipped gym, where beach yoga classes, Pilates and aerobics classes can also be arranged upon request.
Excursions
Swim with the magnificent hawksbill turtles, native to these Bajan waters, or take to the seas on a luxury catamaran, boat tour or for a bit of sea fishing. If you prefer to keep your soles firmly rooted on solid ground, enjoy the astounding richness of the Bajan environment, touring many of the island’s gardens (such as Hunte’s Gardens, Andromeda Botanic Gardens and even the hotel's own well-curated, but smaller, gardens) with some keen horticulturalists. For a firmer understanding of Barbados’ history, head out with Michael Penna, Head of the National Trust, to get to grips with some of Barbados’ UNESCO World Heritage sites
