You will love staying at our property, because it is close (but not to close) to St Lawrence Gap or 'The Gap', the most happening place in Barbados! You can walk to many shops, restaurants, bars and attractions in minutes, and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of this lively spot.

No need to worry about renting a car or taking a taxi, everything you need is right here. Whether you want to relax on the beach, have some fun at night, or explore the island, our property is the perfect base for your vacation.

If its golf you like Barbados possesses an incredible richness of golf courses. On the South Coast can be found The Barbados Golf Club, a well-maintained championship course that is open to the public, as is Club Rockley, a 9-hole enjoyable course.

Into Surfing? Barbados is one of the best places to go surfing in the Caribbean. There are varying surf conditions on both the Caribbean and Atlantic side, making Barbados a perfect destination for surfers of all levels.

If you are looking for a convenient and comfortable place to stay in Barbados, look no further than our unit at Sapphire Beach. You will be amazed by the stunning views of the turquoise sea and the white sand beach from your balcony. You will also enjoy the easy access to the airport and the capital city, both just 15 minutes away by car. Our unit has everything you need to make your stay enjoyable and relaxing. You can cool off in one of the two beachfront pools, work out in the fully equipped gym, or relax in the air-conditioned apartment with a modern kitchen, cable TV, smart TV and high speed wireless internet.

We hope to welcome you soon to our Sapphire in Barbados and know your first stay will be your first of many. Note: We can accommodate very comfortably in each room 2 guests for a total of 6 guest and on occasion we can accommodate an extra 1 adult and or 2 children's in room #2 for a total of 8 guests.

In Barbados electricity is generated with solar and fossil fuels. We have smart energy saving system in place to help the Island be a bit more sustainable. To do this we use a Leviton control system that controls all our AC units. During the day, when a room door is left open, it shuts off the AC after 15 mins to save energy. And when there's no motion in a room, it turns off after 15 mins.

Our property manager will take care of you and accommodate all of your needs while on our property.

Fran was an excellent host. Our stay was fantastic. Condo was clean and just as described. The location was perfect. We could walk to tons of restaurants and stores to shop. The Dover market was close to purchase groceries. The condo had the best view for sunsets and the ocean was perfect to swim in. Very clean, friendly and safe place to stay.

Fantastic VRBO

This rental is in a great location if you are looking at staying on the Gap. This was our second time visiting Barbados. The first time we stayed in a more centralized location between Dover and Oisten’s so we could walk everywhere. We loved Dover so much we decided to stay directly on the beach this time but that meant taking more taxis. We had a total of seven people ranging in age from 12-44. It was the perfect amount of space for all of us. The kitchen is stocked well. Communication was great and the cleaning lady who stopped by once during our stay was very kind and friendly. My only recommendation for the host would be to add some extra blankets. There was only a top sheet and one thin blanket on the bed. While this was fine for my husband, I was freezing. Overall, we would definitely stay here again.

2 Adults 3 teens for quick summer getaway end of June 24. Property is absolutely amazing - new bathrooms and everything we needed. Views are as the pics highlight. Staff on ground are wonderful! We had inclimate weather one day and staff were super helpful - thanks to Anita on ground. Small (little expensive) grocery store a block away, but main grocery 5 mins away. beach was spectacular (Charles from Charles watersport made it easy!) and wonderful casual beach snacks and shacks with inexpensive drinks and food along with some higher ends. Private, quiet and wonderful 3 BR condo with great views. Thanks for having us; can't wait to go back!

My family and I love this property and we keep coming back. We’ve tried many others over the years, but this one meets all of our needs. The place is high quality, clean, and well equipped. It is in the perfect location to make my whole family happy. The only problem was that we had to leave. Can’t wait till next time.

Perfect Vacation

We have been renting in Barbados for many years and it was our first stay at this property. The unit was very well located near St-Lawrence Gap restaurants, right on the beach and was absolutely spotless, well furnished and beautifully appointed. The pictures reflect perfectly its beauty and comfort. The owner, project manager and management firm representative were easy to reach and very prompt to answer any queries we had before and during our stay. We can't wait to come back again.

Great place!

We had a wonderful stay this past week. The unit was clean and had everything we needed. Communication with the owner, property manager and even the housekeeper was easy and prompt. The security staff and maintenance staff for the building were welcoming, friendly and helpful too. The pools were a really nice bonus for the kids on the days that were a bit too rainy to head to the beach. We travel to Barbados often and this has been our favorite holiday rental thus far. Thanks Fran!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 507 Sapphire. The condo is well appointed and had everything that we could think of. It is comfortable and has a lovely home away from home feel. The property manager Anita was super responsive and dealt with any issue that arose promptly, efficiently and courteously. Fran too was very prompt in responding to my enquiries and was a pleasure to deal with. All in all a wonderful vacation and a very good experience overall.

Lovely retreat

Perfect for 2 friends. Really enjoyed 2 king beds with en-suite. Great privacy. Anita on site manager attended to our needs promptly. All staff were friendly and were helpful. It was fun at The Gap and best of all the nightly music could not be heard in Apt. The only light criticism is the bathroom fans are annoying due to their decibel level. Will definitely return.

Wonderful birthday vacay’

Fran’s place was fantastic. Clean, well decorated and comfortable. The concierge service offered at the condo was able to grocery shop for us. This was a tremendous help especially with our flight arriving after midnight. Years ago I stayed at same complex on the 2nd floor, but staying on 5th floor had the best views. Fran’s condo offered plenty of bath towels, beach towels, coolers, extra pillows and blankets and board games. The kitchen looked well stocked, but we hired a cook to prepare our meals during our stay, so my group only utilized the leftovers in fridge & microwave…lol. Fran was super responsive to all my inquiries. Highly recommend and hope to be back very soon.

What a place

We had a fantastic 2-week stay, with the best view one can possibly get. Clean, roomy apartment, it provided everything we needed. No need to watch TV at a location like this, but for those who want to, the channel opportunities seemed to be limited. Doesn't matter, absolutely wonderful place with a bunch of really good restaurants in walking distance (Harlequin, Sharky's and Cafe de Sol were our favorites). Since the condo is on the beach, it was so easy to walk back and forth, and we also enjoyed the wonderful swimming pools in between. Thanks! We'll be back :-)

About the host

Hosted by Fran

Host profile image
Thank-you for viewing our property. We fell in love with Barbados 15 years ago. Its a safe place and the people are friendly. We love cooking and cocktails and the kitchen here has everything we need. We have been involved in real estate for some time now. Knowing Barbados and owning property on the south coast made sense to us. Beach and blue skies. We can't ask for more.

Why they chose this property

There are many reasons we chose our Barbados property. The beach, the weather which is always around 29 degrees Celsius and the lack of hurricanes are the primary reasons for purchasing this property. The stability of the Island and the friendly population are also main contributing factors. Flights are readily available and Bajan standards are modeled after British and North American standards so everything in pretty much comparable to back home...except the weather.

What makes this property unique

Amazing views overlooking Dover beach from a top floor perspective. There is active bird watching from the unit of many local species. The master bedroom opens to a large terrace overlooking the south ocean with its amazing turquoise waters. Restaurants and many amenities all within walking distance.
