Pros fantastic location on a beautiful beach . Wonderful views . Large room which was clean . Live music in the evening which was rather cheesy but people were dancing to it Could walk to some ok restaurants Cons- vet poor amenities for a 4 star and pricey stay. Room had no hairdryer . Interestingly there was a kettle and cups but no coffee sachets or indeed anything to make a drink with. There is a room service menu but no working phone to order from.

Good

The hotel is located on st Lawrence gap which has a few clubs and restaurants. It can get quite noisy at night. If you opt for the sea view apartment you are less likely to hear the club on the opposite side of the road. The room itself is great, there is a kitchen where you can cook your breakfast and make tea, a working tap, fridge, freezer, kettle, microwave. The balcony and the view is lovely. Woke up each morning looking out onto the blue water and blue skies! I went with my friend and so we had a double bed each which is very comfortable. The shower is a bit slow with water but if you run it for 3-4 minutes the water will get warm. We didn’t opt for the breakfast so cannot comment on what the food is like. Overall positive, my only complaint is beware when ordering taxi they quote in US dollars and not Barbadian dollars. The female receptionist misled me despite me asking her twice is the price quoted Barbadian dollar and she said yes. Then when we finished the taxi ride we were told it was in US dollar and not Barbadian dollars. I think that is a fundamental error by the receptionist and cost me unnecessarily. For that the hotel did not deserve a 5 star. In terms of location it is good but expect noise as you are directly opposite a nightclub called halo that is very noisy at the weekends especially the dj and his microphone shouting into it. The island is very small so everything is not far. It is worth hiring a car to get around the island otherwise the taxi fare will be expensive. A taxi fare from at Lawrence gap to the north of the island would cost you 120 Barbadian dollars one way. The hotel has a nice outdoor swimming pool and private chill out area and a restaurant to order drinks. Would I stay here again? Yes I think i would stay here again.

On arrival i had problem with incorrect bed size as per my reservation. The gentelman in reception and the gentelman who show me the alternative rooms were very kind and caring. Some more issues happened to: such as giving the wrong card for the room, had to come back and fix again. Dirty towels left in the room, fixed quickly. No water was available, that was fixed too. Although it sound bad, It did not bother me much. They were quick on actioning. Then, i have been told there were a mistake for the room again, i actually had the correct room reserved for me from the begining. But i was happy with the room i had, so, i did not change it. One thing i can say the water does not have enough pressure in the tab and shower head. These were some negative parts. Besides these, hotel generally very clean, AC working well, no flies or bugs or mosquitos. I would recommend this hotel for all, only possible registeration issues you might face.

Can't beat the location. Views from the balcony was stunning. Clean, safe, no frills. Staff were really really nice and helpful. What a great start to my holidays. Oh, and not too far from Oistens Fish Fry.

Dover Beach hotel is a very adequate mid range choice. The rooms are large and cleaned to a high standard and the facilities are in keeping with a mid sized hotel. We found the reception staff in the main personable and friendly. Location for Lawrence Gap and the airport is good but a car is advisable if you want to visit the West side of the island.. All things considered we enjoyed our short stay at this hotel.

Staying here during the pandemic! This place is a modest, value-packed beachfront property. It is convenient to a small market, and taxis are always available. The beach is steps away, and meals are available by delivery or at the property next door. Close to water sports, spa, small restaurants and other entertainment. Awesome service!!!

My stay at Melrose Apartments was nothing short of wonderful! The staff went out of their way to ensure I had a pleasant experience. They were incredibly kind and helpful, even assisting me with printing some documents I needed, which made me feel truly welcomed and cared for. The apartment's is well equipped with everything you might need, including a full kitchen for a comfortable stay. The location is fantastic—very central, with a grocery store conveniently close by. What makes this place truly magical, though, is the beach right behind the property. Watching the breathtaking sunrises and sunsets from there was an unforgettable highlight of my trip. I highly recommend Melrose Apartments to anyone looking for a convenient, comfortable, and scenic place to stay!
