Hotwire Hotel: 3.5* BARBADOS Ocean 15 Hotel

[dragonfly10305]

1 night, July 2015.

 

Listed price, $84.

Supposed 'market rate' $177. (this is not accurate, the place has rooms available for $105. elsewhere, and for $113. on Hot.wire)

 

Listed amenities:

 

Pool

Free Parking

Free Internet

Business Center

Restaurant

 

I'm fine with it, the location is exactly what I needed for my last night before flying out - but it's not the "53% off" advertised.

I believe there may have been more amenities than you listed in your post. Can you please add a reply to this thread with the amenities (including the accessible) that are currently showing in the MY ACCOUNT link for this purchase... you can still view this information by going to HOTWIRE and clicking the MY ACCOUNT link near the top right of their home page.

 

Note that the crossed out rate is an average price of hotels of this star rating in the zone for your dates, NOT necessarily the rate of the hotel currently being offered.

 

HOTWIRE has a low price guarantee so If you find a cheaper rate should you contact HOTWIRE with this.

 

Enjoy your stay.

I remember hunting Hot.wire for a deal on Barbados, ended up paying retail to stay at Oceans 2 across the street because of location. We turned down a Hot.wire deal at the Hilton because this location is better. There are two good beaches that are a short walk, and its 15 min walk to the Gap. We did eat a few times at Oceans 15, its a popular restaurant bar with good breakfast, lunch and happy hour specials.

 Even though Tripadvisor rates it a 3.5 star,  that is a stretch. But the location is great and I think $84 is a good price
