A revisit says something ...
When one needs to get away from the "rat-race" of Big City living, and the funds don't adequately avail thenselves ... to enjoy the beaches, and fellowship with "some nice folkes" you don't need the best accomodations to enjoy yourself!

Dover beach hotel
Great location right on the beach close to nightlife but still quite at night so you can get some sleep. Mary the activities director was great she set up several tours and bookings for us without a hitch.

Lovely stay, friendly staff, small and cozy!
Walking distance to many beaches, resturants (many food options available all price ranges). All rooms with lovely ocean views. Located at the end of a long beach. 20 minutes from Airport. Everyone on the island was very friendly! Hotel guests were mostly English and Canadian. US finds accepted. Wonderful trip, but a little hard to get to from DTW.

We had a great time without spending great big money. The room door needed a new lock and the desk clerk sent someone to fix it right a way. Good location near the bus stop, but with your own beach. Room had a kitchen and the grocery store is with in walking distance. No bugs and the rooms were clean. lots of hot water in the shower

superb beach in January
Dover Beach Hotel is a well located hotel in Lawrence Gap. The beach is immediately accessible from the hotel and the ocean water is superbly clean and warm in the middle of January. The hotel is clean, spacious and comfortable. People working for the hotel were kind and spontaneous for their service work. I would not hesitate to recommend the hotel for those who are looking for a 3 star level hotel worth for the money.

Hotel for budget vacationers
The hotel staff (reception, housekeeping, security, maintenance, restaurant etc) were nice n friendly, the facilities were outdated but workable. Once renovations are done them the hotel will be a real gem.

Short walk from hotel
The merchants and stores along t Gap/strip are OVERPRICED beware..take t shuttle or bus into Bridgetown where prices are much reasonable.. Also get a calling card at the grocery store to make any international calls, way cheaper than the hotel phone. Becareful about extra tipping, most restaurants automatically add a service fee which is a gratuity charge ( regardless of party size) we were unknowingly tipping 20% extra when they were already adding 10% to t bill. The island is pretty safe so dont waste money on cabs when you can take a shuttle or bus around. Oistins Bay is the spot for friday night dining and entertainment, if you are into snapper fish they always seem to be out of the small ones and you may end up having to buy the large one for about $40 (BBD). If you pay in US dollars at restaurants, becareful as most don't convert to 2 BBD to 1 US dollars, they convert at 1.95 or 1.98 to 1 US dollar. Beautiful, gorgeous beaches a must..

Rest for my head
AT first iwas given an upgrade that felt like a downgrade, on arrival the staff were more tired than me and i travelled on a late flight. But the saving grace was that we were allowed a late check out at no extra cost, the only plus of the stay.

Classic Beach Hotel
The beach was beautiful as was the pool area. The hotel was built in 1977 and the rooms showed some age. The room was simple but nice with a fridge,stove, microwave ect.

The hotel needs to get with the times
The stay was overall enjoyable, lots to do, see eat and enjoy. However my intial experience was a bit disappointing. I called the hotel the night before to confirm my reservation, as well as to indicate when i would arrive to their establishment as i had a very early flight. I was promptly advised that they were fully booked, check in is @ 4pm and there is nothing they can do. Thank god i rented a vehicle so i was able to move around with my luggage, otherwise i would have had to sit around at least 6 hrs. If i had an alternative i would have requested my money back and find another hotel. Besides my incident when i finally got to check in and take a rest i was able to enjoy the rest of my 4 day trip
