Our Ultimate Guide To Your Barbados Proposal

Tailored To Perfection

With breathtaking beaches, stunning sunsets, and romantic hideaways, Barbados is the perfect destination to ask the most important question of your life.

At The Rockley by Ocean Hotels Barbados, we believe that no two love stories are the same—so why should proposals be? Whether it’s just you and your beloved, or a more elaborate affair in front of your closest family or friends, our dedicated team will customise every detail, from live music and a personal photographer, to a surprise engagement party. Here are some tips from our Proposals Concierge:

✅ Plan for the weather – Barbados is sunny year-round, but a backup option never hurts, and we have lots of ideas.
✅ Ring it in – Pack that precious engagement ring carefully in your hand luggage, and consider insuring it before travelling.
✅ Capture the moment – We’ll hire a photographer to discreetly record the big moment so you can share it with loved ones at home.
✅ Make it personal – Incorporate your favourite foods, cocktails, or special music.
✅ Celebrate afterwards! – A romantic dinner is just the start. How about a couple’s spa day, or a sunset cruise to celebrate your engagement in paradise?

Staging The Perfect Proposal

✨Secluded Beach Sunsets
There’s nothing more romantic than a golden sunset over the Caribbean Sea, and Rockley Beach, just steps from The Rockley, offers a stunning backdrop, ideal for that life-changing moment. Let us set up an icy bucket of Moet & Chandon, while you take a sunset stroll and pop the question as the waves kiss the shore.

✨Oceanfront Fine Dining
For a uniquely elegant proposal, we can reserve your oceanfront table for two at one of our sister resorts. Consider a romantic candlelit dinner in an intimate ‘beach bubble’, accompanied by the sound of the lapping waves—and perhaps a ring hidden in your sumptuous dessert! From spectacular fine-dining at O2 Beach Club & Spa’s Oro, to under-the-stars al fresco at Sea Breeze, there are myriad ways to propose at Ocean Hotels Barbados properties.

✨ Gorgeous Gazebos
Adorned with fairy lights and surrounded by tropical gardens, the oceanfront gazebos at O2 and Sea Breeze provide the dreamy backdrop for an intimate and elegant proposal. Raise a toast, surprise your partner with a perfectly iced bottle of Moët, and seal the moment with an emotional ‘Yes!’
