Feedback about Sol By Melia Barbados Hotel from previous guests about their experience.

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests often appreciate the variety of pools, including those with slides, perfect for entertaining children, and there is also a kiddie pool with animal shapes for the youngest ones. The beach is conveniently located just a short walk away and a supermarket is nearby. Rooms are generally spacious and comfortable, some even featuring a solarium for extra sunbathing space; however, some have found that meals can become somewhat repetitive. The hotel is located in a quiet area on the outskirts of Magaluf.

I was grateful that the rooms were cleaned to a high standard every day. The location was also great. It was close to the beach and bus services. I appreciated the hotel's convenient transfer service booked directly through them. The pool facilities were amazing. My children really enjoyed the slides.

I appreciated the hotel's convenient communication before my arrival. The pool facilities were wonderful and my children enjoyed the slides.

The entertainment started quite late at 8:45 PM. The kids' mini disco and shows were on different themes and songs most nights. My kids wanted to leave early most nights because of the late start. It meant we did not see the later acts.
