The apartment was very nice, well equipped and very clean (the housekeeper Primrose was wonderful!). The balcony and view was the highlight, it was lovely! The pools were good and there were plenty of sunbeds. It is gated and secure. We very much enjoyed the apartment. The beach was also nice and there were a few restaraunts you can walk to along the beach. The beach however is quite short (0.25 miles maybe?) with rocks at either end. The sea is quite rough at this beach. The road outside the apartment building is a bit run down. You have to walk along the road to get to The Gap. It’s not unsafe, just not very pretty. The Gap is bustling with bars and restaurants (there are a few good restaurants). There are taxis outside the building and we used the same driver while we were there.

Having two large, tiered swimming pools was a major plus when we wanted a break from the salt water. The grounds are gated and feel very secure, the staff is incredibly accommodating. It’s also a short walk to St. Lawrence Gap, where we found some of the best restaurants and nightlife on the island.

We loved staying at this place! The view was so amazing from the balcony — a great place to relax and unwind to the sound of the ocean. The location directly on the beach and close to restaurants etc couldn’t be better. Also the apartment was spacious, clean and well equipped. Would definitely love to return!

This condo is beautiful inside and out! First the location, you can walk to so many bars and restaurants. We also walked to Worthing Beach the one morning. There is also the Dover Market just around the corner. The condo has the most beautiful view with a large balcony with plenty of seating. The condo was also very clean. I appreciate staying here with the family for 8 days! Definitely recommend. You cannot beat the location, condo space and view! Thank you for the hospitality!

The condo was spacious for our family of 6. Views were beautiful. Location perfect. Super clean and the air conditioning had no problem keeping us cool even on a top floor. Would highly recommend this property. Only down side was the seaweed which obviously is Mother Nature’s plan.

I am speechless. This Airbnb exceeded expectations by far. Great location, in the hub but private enough to enjoy and relax. The beach was AMAZING and the fact that we were walking distance from most of the live entertainment, pubs, and restaurants in the gap was amazing. I could not recommend this Airbnb enough. DO NOT think twice about this place - if it's available, you should book immediately. The service was great as well with easy communication and check in process. This was a dream! I cannot wait to come back to Barbados and stay here again. 10/10 recommend!!!!

Sapphire #517 is spacious, clean and well equipped with a million dollar view of the beach and sea. Located in the St Lawrence Gap there are many bars and restaurants nearby with a busy nightlife scene but once in the condo it it peaceful and quiet. The landscaped grounds are well maintained by Kevin, Patrick and Juliette are there with a smile should you with anything. Communication with Blue Sky was excellent from the start to the end. Looking forward to our next visit.

A marvelous beach! We sighted tartarugas da varanda quase every day. Very comfortable, spacious, clean apartment. Moveis, electrical appliances, utensils, bedding and bathroom in good condition. We cook and we do not feel lack of any equipment. All functional. Or stand out in plain sight. From the kitchen you see the sea and from the master bedroom. Fazer as refeições na varanda foi especial. We love this week in Barbados! We recommend. And we would like to return.

My family rented unit 307 and 517, both beautifully furnished, and a pleasure to spend time in. What made the trip extra special was not only the units but the staff as well. The front gate staff were extremely friendly, and Kiesha who was there to remedy any small issue we may have had. Primrose and Nicole always greeted us with a big smile and so much love. Thank you all for being a part of our vacation and making it a huge success. Looking forward to seeing you all again very soon.! Much love, Barry and family!

Three couples in our 60’s. We had an amazing time. The unit was spotless as were the grounds. Immediate access to the pool and beach. Take your choice. Walking distance to bars and restaurants in the Gap. Taxi's right out front for any day trips. An excellent convenience store with beer and wine, food and snacks just 150m away. Blue sky was very communicative and ensured everything was in order. We highly recommend.

Perfect apartment with plenty of hanging space like you wouldn’t believe, huge rooms, amazing views! We spotted turtles pretty much most mornings which was fab! We had everything we needed to hand it was well equipped! The views are amazing to wake up to! The location perfect! I reckon it took 10/15 to walk into the heart of the gap and we are on our holidays it’s chill time so the walking is on bajan time. We tried all over for flying fish cutters, they’re really good in a few places! Pebbles beach at cuz's van have got to be the best! Daddy's next to the condos do a pretty good one along with other homemade great stuff ! We had an amazing time, it was the whole package for us
