I have visited Sol Barbados few years ago and it was much better in term of food and staff. Most if not all staff were rude and not easy to approach especially the bar men as well as the restaurant workers.
I wanted to go again so we can have some memories back but unfortunately it wasn’t as expected
The staff were great but the food was not nice at all not many options and we asked for a double bed we got 2 single beds even though we asked on the first day to have a double bed. It needed to be more clean there were no toilet paper or hand soap in the toilets by the pool . .
Located just outside the busy area, 5 minute walk away. Close to the beach. Quiet enough to get away from it all. Was busy with families so expect the family noise, and buffet madness. Only negative would be the lifts, only 3 of them and when busy be prepared to wait a while

Front desk staff not helpful and rude
Pool closes at 6pm and the sun doesnt go down until 10pm so theres nothing to do in the evening.
Breakfast is mediocre despite many options, the food quality just isnt good.
Loud screaming kids at night and early morning. Walls are paper thin. Its an expensive hotel but not worth the price.

I've been in a few 4 and 5 star All-Inclusive hotels for the last few years and while this one had a few things going for it, it felt lacking in a few key areas I hadn't seen in a few places.
The Good:
Good for families with young children due to the many pools and entertainment options
Staff was very kind, especially the animators at the childrens club
Close to the beach and the commercial area meas you can do plenty of things nearby
The Bad:
- It was very common to see certain machines broken, like the juice and coffee dispensers. The soft Ice cream machine seemed to be there just for show.
- 1 of the 3 elevators was broken during almost our entire stay, and since the place is so crowded it made waiting for elevators take a really long time, especially during lunch times. The place has 14 floors so using the stairs is not always an option
- Pools close way too early. I realize it's because lifeguards have to leave but not being able to use them when there are 3 more hours of intense heat is really annoying. At least some of the Kids pools should remain open.
- Glasses and cups provided by the hotel during lunch hours are very small, forcing you to constantly having to get up to refill and there not enough drink dispensers for such a large and crowded place
- Some shows at night are entertaining but others but others, like the Brazillian one, feel really improvised and are just stalling for time
- Very few drink options in the all inclusive menu
Good relation between price and hotel amenities, however the staff wasn't very keen to help. We also had cleaning staff knocking at our door at 9am in the morning (but we didn't put the cleaning sign at our door).
the whole experience was OK not great. Apart from the breakfast all other dining experience in the hotel was terrible. I would not advise going for half board or all inclusive. hotel room for the 4 of us was not big enough very little space to move around.
the entertainment was viewable, the kids were happy.
