Dover Beach Hotel

Stayed a week in Dover beach hotel - block behind the hotel. Lovely room with huge comfy bed, good aircon and hot showers , kettle microwave fridge etc. nothing to worry about with cleanliness room was cleaned daily. Perfect for a hotel to rest your head in! Loungers were fine by the pool but we went out most days. They will move them into the beach but there’s then no shade at all. Lovely beach but the sea was very wavy whilst we were there so needed to go to other calmer beaches along the coast to swim.

Excellent hotel in a perfect location. The rooms are clean and brightly decorated with a kitchenette, which is great for making breakfast and lunch …and some light evening meals. This is adequately stocked for 2 persons with some kitchen utensils, crockery, and a good-sized fridge freezer. There is a 4 ring burner which you need matches for, and a microwave. If you don't want to self-cater, the hotel has a good restaurant that serves some light meals and full dinners: there is also a breakfast menu. Lovely pool area, and the location is on the beach with easy access to St Lawrence Gap and only a short walk to some good beach shacks/restaurants. There is a supermarket close for basic essentials. The hotel is near the Maxwell road, which has buses for access to Bridgetown and Oistins plus other places. Read up on buses in Barbados as there is quite a choice! Staff are pleasant and very helpful. We would definitely recommend this as a mid range hotel, and we will be back. Thank you, Dover beach, for a great stay!

Location was good for where we needed to be, staff were friendly and was good value, bed was comfy but hotel needs some refurbishment.

This was the worst hotel experience I have ever had. The front desk employee was extremely rude and displayed no sense of service etiquette. The hotel itself was dirty, and on my first night I found pubic hair on my bed sheets. When I called the front desk to report it, the staff member was dismissive and unhelpful. I waited an entire hour before they even attempted to provide a solution. Eventually, she sent a male security guard to change my sheets while I was still in the room. When I questioned why he was sent, she called me back with an attitude, implying that I was wrong to expect her to handle it. The whole situation was unbelievable, and it took nearly two hours to resolve, late at night about 11pm, when all I wanted was to rest. On top of that, the food was terrible and the towels were dingy. Overall, this was by far the worst hotel experience I’ve ever had. I would not recommend it to anyone.

We just returned from 2-week stay at Dover beach hotel. It's a small standard quiet hotel divided in three blocks. Only block Calais is located directly on the beach. You must choose studio ocean view if you want to see ocean from your balcony. Even if the hotel is old, the room are very clean. The water is always hot and air conditioning works well. The provided articles are limited: towels, toilet paper, shampoo, hand soap and air dryer. Exterior is less well maintained than the interior. There was a bird's nest in the outside lamp on our balcony. So, no exterior light. The beach is small, but you can walk further along the seashore. When it's windy, the waves are very strongs. The parasols of the beach chairs must be change: they are all broken. The pool is small but nice with new chairs. The staff is very helpfull. They clean room every day and they help you with the tours to visit the island. There is a restaurant at the hotel. The food are good. Don't take the breakfast pakage offered on their website: we'll pay more money than "à la carte". If you walk 3 minutes, you'll find many restaurants and a minimarket. You'll find beer, wine, rhum, snaks and cook meals. You can pay in US. We recommand Dover beach hotel if you are not looking for luxury. Odette and Luc Québec Canada

Beautiful environment and ocean view

Loosen faucet and leaking toilet can be. Fixed before customers enter , no talking about roof leaking after rain.

Location was perfect, just a 5 minute walk to St Lawrence gap, close to bars and restaurants. View from the room and by the pool looking on to the beach was amazing. Staff were very friendly and helpful, the restaurant staff were a little rude and didn’t look like they wanted to be there.

Hotel was quite dated, shower head full of limescale, needs to be modernised a tiny bit, although the hospitality room to shower before going to the airport was perfect the shower was perfect.

Great location and staff. Too much smoking around pool and restaurant. Pot too allover. Pool is good and close to everything one needs. Staff are great. Clean.

Enforce no smoking or start putting up signs especially around the pool and balconies. People coming from the beach covered in sand and not using the shower. Cleaning off in the pool.
