Beachfront holiday rental in Dover Beach

My partner and I stayed for a week in Jess’s apartment, whilst I surfed and remote worked from the UK and close to my partners home in Oistins. Jess’s cosy apartment was just what we were looking for, private, quiet, comfortable and with lots of outside living space. The breeze blows through all the open shutters making it nice and cool and we enjoyed dinners in the garden and afternoon naps in the hammock. The apartment is a 5 minute walk from Freights Bay to surf and 20 minute walk to Miami Beach and Oistins for the shops and places to eat. Jess was the highlight of the trip giving us loads of great recommendations and an all round great host and person. We will definitely be keeping in touch and saying again!

Lex’s place had it all. There is a beautiful beach right outside the back door, it’s walkable to a grocery store, several cafes and bars and the Friday fish fry. We also could grab busses right outside the house to get to Bridgetown for more beaches and restaurants. Walking around felt safe (well lit) but of course be aware of your surroundings and the cars wiz by so be aware of where the sidewalks are. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space. We loved how there were lots of towels and pillows! The only thing to prepare for is that the second bedroom gets traffic noise so maybe bring earplugs if you’re sleeping in that room.

As a first time traveller to Barbados, Tonia was the best host and made our stay memorable. She was quick to help out with our needs and also suggest the best spots to visit. Thanks Tonia!

My husband and I fell in love about 8 years ago with Barbados and this was our 8th visit to Barbados. We booked this villa about 3 days prior to our arrival, and were impressed with the quick communication and very easy self check in. The villa is beautiful, nice and white and bright. The beds were very comfortable and it was spotless. Plenty of beach towels and bath towels! It was lovely sitting on the deck watching the surfers, we felt safe and happy in the Freights Bay Area with a quick walk to Miami Beach, the location of this villa was convenient and within walking distance to the fish market and Masseys grocery store! A lovely villa in deed and another wonderful vacation in Barbados.

Salty toes is unbelievable!, and it's a must visit! From the cleanliness of the house itself to the sandy beach coming right up to the outdoor seating area, simply amazing! It's one of those places that's quiet and off the main street but it has everything on its doorstep! lovely bars, restaurants, food courts, lovely boardwalks etc it has it all.. the house was spotless, fully stocked with everything you could imagine. Big cooker, big fridge freezer/ washing/ dryer facilities. Salty toes has ample space for families. Two big seating areas inside for eating at, and then the outdoor area just has to be seen! Amazing! All 3 bedrooms were huge, crisp clean linen and all beds with memory foam mattresses! We'll definitely be back to Salty Toes, home away from home. I'd be giving this place 20/10! Top Class Chloe, keep up the good work!

Thank you Leslee Ann for welcoming us into your home and for your great communication throughout. We really enjoyed our stay and very much appreciate you accommodating our evening flight with a late check out.

Great place overall! The unit itself is roomy, recent and clean. The location couldn’t be better; on The Gap, but not right in the bars section so it was quiet at night but you just had to walk 5 minutes to get to the action. Great host and his co-hosts were great as well. My wife and I really enjoyed our time and will be looking to come back with our daughters!

We had a fabulous 2 week stay at La Canoa. With 6 of us there was plenty of space and we loved hanging out in the garden and on the veranda. We especially enjoyed the wildlife in the garden and the direct beach access. The kitchen was great, fully equipped and clean. Chris was a great host and swiftly responded to any questions we had. Having never visited Barbados before we could not have asked for more. La Cabane, the closest restaurant to La Canoa, serves the best food in a perfect location. (walking distance) We loved being by the harbour and rum distillery, there was something quite unique about this location. I would recommend hiring a car if you are staying here although we used the buses, we also explored further afield to the East and South coast Thank you Chris for providing such a wonderful place to stay in Barbados.

We just returned from 6 absolutely gorgeous, sun-soaked days at Villa Sunkiss and we’re already dreaming about going back. From the moment we arrived, the villa took our breath away. Every room was thoughtfully curated with an elegant, beachy Caribbean vibe that made us feel instantly relaxed and at home. The kitchen was a dream—fully equipped and just perfect. But the real magic was the beautifully maintained, super comfortable outdoor space with jaw-dropping views of the water from every angle. The only tiny downside was that the sea wall stairs had been taken out by a hurricane last year, so direct swimming access from the property wasn’t possible. The location overall couldn’t be better—just steps to the lively St. Lawrence Gap and despite being close to the action, the neighborhood felt peaceful, safe, and super friendly. Cathy our host was fantastic and always available by text. This was the kind of stay that sticks with you long after you leave and we can't wait to come back!

Our 5 nights at the Sapphire Beach Condominium #317 was excellent, the view from the balcony is breathtaking, we loved to have our breakfast there every morning, and enjoyed some evening sunsets from there as well. The apartment was very cleaned, kitchen had all the basics you need, beds were very comfortable. Location was incredible, walking distance to many restaurants and a small grocery store, the beach right in front of the condominium is absolutely beautiful. Chanice the host was very good in communication, before and during our stay. Damian your on-land concierge met us when checked in, gave us the tour of the condo, he was very helpful. We certainly would come back again when going to Barbados, would strongly recommend this beautiful condo. Angela.

Modern, cosy and extremly clean. The apartment was neat and well equipped with everything you would need and more. Boasted some stunning views of the ocean. The hosts are really cool and responive. SOV301 is centrally located if you’re planning to enjoy the beaches and nightlife, up the west coast or down the south coast. 100% would stay here again.

We were there for a family reunion. Lots of us were scattered about at LC , Salty Toes, Barefoot Bay etc. so the location is great for convenience, grocery shopping, bakery etc. Lots of sea weed at this time of year which is not great. But can’t beat location for convenience. If you plan not to rent a car, it is easy to move about on foot or by local transport. Noisy though at night as a busy junction.

We stayed at 204 Mistle Cove for one week. The location is right in the heart of Lawrence Gap with all restaurants and amenities within walking distance. The apartment itself is just as advertised, although the view is actually nicer than the pictures. The main room sleeps with a broadview of the ocean and the calming sounds of waves. The patio is spacious and perfect for breakfast , lunch and dinners in front of the ocean. My daughter loved the pool and the ocean front was a lot of fun with the high waves. A calmer and longer beach was only a two min walk from the apartment at Dover. Overall, we had everything we could have needed here, and would easily stay again if we go back to Barbados.

Thank you Mary for allow me to celebrate my birthday. at one love , the location The view was everything i highly recommend one love .

One of the best holidays I’ve ever taken - Ocean Blues is simply one of a kind, we lucked out and had the entire villa to ourselves - which was an added bonus for travelling in the shoulder season. The amenities are just as described, but don’t really do it justice - a private little area to swim into the ocean, with a lovely pool oasis on the deck overlooking the vista. It’s truly spectacular! The room is very comfortable and with even better view. It has everything one needs - plush bed, solid shower with pressure and hot water, clean and tidy. The housekeeper Lana was truly an angel and took such great care of us - her hospitality and warmth truly made the experience special and very memorable. Lastly the nearby La Cabane is a must try and swimming over to Batts Rock to soak in the afternoon rays was our highlight. Thank you Justin, we look forward to our next visit! And thank you Lana for all the love and generosity

Beautiful clean condo with a fully loaded kitchen. It’s one of those places where you can use something and then leave something behind. I love places like that. All amenities worked and the next guests should have a new coffee pot. I really enjoyed the softer touches, candles outside (yes, I left one), lots of towels and random house hold everyday items that you need in an Airbnb. I recommend renting a car to get around.

Kevin was an excellent host, always available and responsive about questions we had as well as many recommendations for things to do/places to see. We were pleasantly surprised that the balcony was bigger than it looked in the pictures. You cannot beat the view of having a private balcony literally on the beach. The beach in front of the apartment did have lots of seaweed the time of year we went so we didn't spend too much time in the water there, but Carlisle Bay is a short 15 min drive away for the perfect lazy beach days we all wish to have on vacation. Carlisle bay also has excellent snorkeling if you bring your own gear and don't mind a leisurely 100yd swim or so to get to the shipwrecks. Having the waves as a natural sound machine made every night pleasant and restful as well as having AC in the bedrooms to keep it nice and cool. We highly recommend renting a car vs using public transport so you can have a lot more freedom to roam the island on your own time.

This was a special trip celebrating my granddaughter’s graduation. After a long trip, coming into a spotless white home, with a beautiful outdoor living room complete with water feature was perfect. We were 3 women, 3 generations, and we all found it perfect and spacious. LR and each BR had a/c that worked great. Inside was very quiet - great sleeping. The community pool for swimming was within 50 meters. Note - the water next to the outdoor living room is not for swimming but is lovely to sit next to. Gloria had been very patient answering my questions prior to our trip, so I was prepared with things to do and how to get there. Many great restaurants are along St Lawrence Gap. Also a convenience store next to Mimosas Restaurant had essentials. Easy to walk 8-10 minutes to get to them. One might feel a little apprehensive walking at first but it was VERY safe. Just be careful crossing Hwy 7. Beaches in Barbados are public.Access is marked. Rent Chairs and umbrellas there.

We had never visited Barbados before and we were not sure what to expect. I reached out to our host and asked for help getting from the airport to our Condo. We were a party of seven and he arranged transportation for us. There were 2 vehicles waiting for us when we exited the Airport doors. We had numerous bags that we had brought with us. The ride was reasonable, comfortable and air conditioned. Peter met us when we arrived at the Condo and answered all our questions about the home and the area. The Condo accommodated the seven of us well. The large balcony over looking the beach and the pools is amazing. We enjoyed the near by restaurant's, many to select from, in walking distance. The beach worked well for us. We rented lounge chairs on the beach every day near the beach bar. They serve low cost but great cocktails with or without alcohol. I always rent a car on vacation but this time a didn't. I never missed it. I highly recommend Peter Karl and his Condo! Pat Estep

It was exactly what I needed. Beautiful set up and location love the levels. Very spacious. Amazing beach setting Sound of waves all day Very local. Everything in walking distance or a cheap z van. Thank you for everything

What can I say, Kerry & Nathan were super hosts. Greeted me on arrival at their wonderful Airb&b. Very friendly and made me feel at home straight away. A wonderful hamper of food awaited us to tie us over for breakfast the next morning and beyond. Their home is spotless and Sasha the cleaning lady came twice a week to change bed linen and general cleaning. Location is exactly what we were looking for. Only 5-7 minutes walk to Oistins (lively in the evenings) but far enough away to have peace and quiet and watch the wonderful sunset in the evenings. 15 minutes drive from the airport. Kerry & Nathan keep up your fantastic work. You are a credit to the Airb&b industry. Thanks again for a memorable stay. Martin 🇮🇪

We loved staying here. It was so cute. Christy was the perfect host. Loved having delicious coffee every morning from her coffee shop. The front porch was private and peaceful.

We stayed at Rachel’s beautiful waterfront property in Barbados for nearly three weeks, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The view was absolutely breathtaking — waking up to the ocean every morning was a dream come true. Rachel was an outstanding host with incredibly fast and thoughtful communication throughout our stay. She made everything seamless and stress-free. Highly recommend staying here if you're looking for a relaxing, scenic escape with a host who genuinely cares!

Great host, very friendly and responsive. Wonderful location just steps from the beach! Includes all the amenities you need. Only minor downside is the noise from nearby vehicle and air traffic. Overall, highly recommended!
