We had a great week in Barbados staying here. Had a couple of issues when we checked in but Barbara quickly rectified them. Would definitely recommend staying here. Just be mindful about not having air conditioning in the second bedroom and that the water dials in the showers work the opposite of what they say, i.e. cold is hot and hot is cold

Great vacation

We liked the property. We had 3 great weeks at this apt 403. The location was fantastic and safe. We think however that the master bed room could be fitted with a telephone. The television set in the bed room did not work, so that need to be looked into. Overall we enjoyed the place. Thank you

Thank you for your comments. I am sorry that you had problems with the TV, did you mention it to the property manager during your stay? I will certainly investigate the matter and rectify the situation. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I am pleased you enjoyed your stay, it was a pleasure having you as our guests. Best Wishes Barbara

Quiet and convenient

Smooth checking and nice to have access to apartment upon arrival rather than wait until the later check in time. Apartment was comfortable. Nice bonus was housekeeping, which I forgot was included. The second bedroom, as described by owner does not have a/c but has a floor fan. ( I had a cold so slept there for several nights so as not to disturb my husband). It was more than fine in terms of temperature. Nice beach right across the street with plenty of shade, if desired. Owner sent along some wonderful recommendations for restaurants, beaches, taxis, groceries. Very helpful.

Had a fantastic stay at this Aprtment. Location was great for Dover Beach and the many bars and restaurants on the gap. Contact was great as we were delayed by the airline by one day. Check in was as stated. Would highly recommend a stay here

Disappointed

We were a party of four mature adults we had an apartment with one very nice master suite with en-suite bathroom and air conditioning plus one tiny bedroom with a small double bed very poor wardrobe space and one single draw for clothes for two adults ,worse of all no air conditioning . I complained immediately on arrival but was told nothing could can be done.We had a great holiday but no thanks to the accommodation

The property is advertised as having AC in the master bedroom and living area only. The second bedroom has a double bed and ceiling fans. This was detailed in the description of the property. The guest was offered an alternative unit in the same building but he declined to accept it.

Great location - wonderful experience

I love staying at this property. It has everything you need to be away, but still feel like a home. The owner is wonderful and the apartment manager is great. There’s Dover Market right across the street if you need to pick up a few things and a bigger supermarket nearby. You are in St. Lawrence Gap, the hub of eateries and nightlife, but still removed from the loud noise and foot traffic. Great place + great stay = I’ll definitely be back again soon!

Lots of space, clean and comfortable, sunset view from the balcony

We enjoyed our stay at The Terraces, convenient location very close to the beach (you can actually see the water from the balcony) and a small market/convenience store across the street. The condo is brighter and cleaner in person than in the photos, we were pleasantly surprised. If you have back problems please note that although very spacious, the master king sized mattress is not very comfortable (too firm). On the plus side the master bedroom is very large and lots of privacy with its own little balcony, walk in closet and en-suite bath. This condo has a great layout!

Delightful in every way

We just enjoyed another Christmas and New year vacation on the beautiful  Island of Barbados. Our apartment at 403 the Terraces in St Lawerance gap Dover lived up to its previous high standards, with it's comfortable, pristine presentation and all the amenities you would ever need on hand. With it's location being just across the street from the stunning Sandals resort, we had front row seats to watch the sepctular New year's eve  fire works display...... We, will definitely be going back to the our lovely apatment at the Terraces. it's the only place to be, to see in the New Year....

Perfect.

Amazing 10 night stay. Couldn't fault anything, had a great time. The only thing that went wrong the whole time was that we were without running water for 2 days but nothing could be done about that, plus we didn't need water with all the beer and rum on offer. Will have to return sometime in the future.
Response from VrboOwner on 1 Apr 2020
I am sorry about the water issue. I believe it affected most of the south coast. Luckily there was the beer and rum to fall back on! I hope to welcome you back again soon. Best wishes Barbara

Fabulous Holiday, Beautiful Barbados

We really loved our holiday on the beautiful Island of Barbados. We stayed on the  side of the Island at St Lawrence Gap, The Gap as it's known, lived up to all of our guide book expectations. The vibrant Night Life, lots of delectable local food to choose from. Ostins  fish fry on a Friday night is an absolute must! Beaches, Beaches, You are spoilt for choice with a number of brilliant beaches on your doorstep Brown's & Dover were my favourites. The apartment at the Terarces was delightful, well positioned nicely decorated. Fitted out to a high standard, with all that you need to make your  stay comfortable and relaxing. We were met on arrival by Monica the property manager, for whom nothing was too much. I would love to visit Barbados again, I fell in love with the chilled vibe and the lovely friendly people. I would certainly stay @ 403 The Terraces again we had a fabulous time that felt like home from home
