The hotel

If you like the sound of an adults-only, all inclusive, beach boutique break, then The Abidah by Accra should most certainly be on your wish list. When you arrive, you're greeted by the swishing palm trees, a warm Caribbean breeze, and stunning views of turquoise waters and white sands. With so much to do here, you'll be spoilt for choice on the daily. And in the evenings when that sun sets, head to one of the many restaurants for some good food, or head out to Oistins nearby to try its famous fish fry nights. However you choose to spend your days (and nights!), you'll relax into the Barbados way of life before you know it.

The hotel has an intimate feel to it. We didn't feel like guest, but more like being at home with family. The views of the sea, and beautiful sunset was more than amazing. The food and drinks were excellent. Lounging by the pool was relaxing. I recommend this hotel any day.

There still seem to be some bad reviews about this hotel but we would not hesitate in recommending it. Our room was very spacious, well appointed and clean. Everything worked, including the hot tub. One morning the air conditioning broke but this was fixed within an hour. On the same morning the lift also stopped working but maintenance got it fixed within a couple of hours. The pool area is small but we never struggled to get loungers. The food was varied and always delicious. The hotel is quietly situated but in a good location to visit the Oistins Fish Fry on a Friday evening. There is also a bus station there so you can get to most places on the island. The ZR reggae buses pass by frequently if you’re brave enough to take a ride. We took advantage of the shuttle bus to the sister hotel a couple of times and enjoyed our days there. Would recommend the Sunday buffet lunch there, which is accompanied by live music. The beach there is lovely there too, with plenty of loungers and umbrellas. From that hotel you can walk along the coastal Richard Haynes Boardwalk (1 mile each way) plus there’s shops and bars nearby. The staff at the Abidah are all very friendly and helpful. If you’re looking for a small quiet hotel (44 rooms) this is worth trying and we intend to return. Read less

I had pre-paid unfortunately, otherwise, it’s not worth even half the price. A total disappointment. Read less

My stay at The Abidah hotel was nothing short of awesome. From Nikki at check-in who made sure our welcome mat was placed to the bartenders Rico and Kyle who made our drinks with love and other staff. The room was beautiful, jacuzzi was relaxing and the food was awesome from breakfast to dinner. I will definitely recommend The Abidah Hotel!
