Hotel's Favorite
I stayed at South Gap the week of July 16, 2022. Check In was smooth, staff was welcoming and friendly. The restaurant, the pool and location was perfect during my visit. The view from the room (well all the rooms) are outstanding. The hotel is clean. The location of the hotel has alot of night action so it can get noisy but you are on vacation so let nothing bother you. Special shout out to Avery!! He was literally every day and night and did every job. Lol!!! He definitely made a positive lasting impression. And I cannot forget Haneith (spelling) who was always helpful and friendly. Thank you to all the staff (especially the bartenders) for making my stay so memorable. I HIGHLY recommend and would definitely stay here again

I had an amazing stay at South Gap Hotel. Zero complaints. The hotel is nice and modern. All the rooms have a breathtaking view of the ocean and the pool deck. The rooms also have a kitchenette and a full size refrigerator which is convenient. My room was cleaned daily and replenished with toiletries and new towels. The staff is very nice, helpful, and accommodating even prior to my trip as I had a few special requests. The hotel staff also assisted with airport transportation. The restaurant located on the lower level of the hotel wasn’t like your typical hotel restaurant. It was very good and the drinks were great. Although it isn’t an all inclusive, the food is very affordable. The hotel also provides a voucher for a welcome drink and a 10% off voucher for dinner nightly which can also be used at their sister restaurant a short distance away. The hotel is located in the heart of numerous restaurants and bars. The beach is also a short walk from the hotel. The hotel met all my expectations.

We stayed at this hotel for three nights as an extra little add onto our Tobago holiday, and I must say it was absolutely stunning . We had an ocean view junior suite which was right on the deck of the pool and looked out straight over the Sea which was also absolutely beautiful. We was concerned after reading some of the reviews about the noise at South gap hotel as it is located on Saint Lawrence gap. However it’s towards the end of Saint Lawrence gap and maybe because we wasn’t there over the weekend it may have been different but we didn’t feel or find it too noisy at all. Maybe having a room at the front of the hotel overlooking the sea as opposed to the gap may have made a difference . The Sun loungers were amazing and super comfy and the pool with a lovely temperature, with amazing views over the sea that are absolutely gorgeous and breathtaking. The only downside I found to the hotel was the price of the drinks and food, but I felt it was expensive all over Barbados, It was definitely one of the more expensive Caribbean islands we have visited. All in all an absolutely beautiful hotel. Staff are very friendly and always happy to help room large and stunning would definitely recommend.

Excellent hotel in St. Lawrence Gap. Close to restaurants and entertainment. The staff are very professional and cater to guests. Each room has an ocean view and a balcony with a table and chairs. The pool is always clean and there is always a chair to sit on while sunning on the deck which overlooks the ocean. Overall, excellent hotel!

Stay at a different hotel! You have been warned. This hotel was so bad we checked out after being there for just one hour. There is an extremely loud club right across the street and in spite of the fact that we requested a quiet room 5 months before we arrived, they claimed there were none left. All the reviews saying they got their room decorated and their special occasion acknowledged, well lucky for them, because we got nothing. The guy checking us in couldn’t even muster out a “congrats”. The stove in the one bedroom “suite” looked like it had recently had some type of a grease fire, there was hair on the toilet, and the music was so loud inside the room, we knew there was no way we could stay there as it would be impossible to sleep. There is a stand not too far outside the hotel for the police- now at first you might think oh that’s nice the police are close by, but then when you think about it further, it’s because of the sheer amount of drunk people that are going to be crawling the streets. Is that where you want to spend your Barbadian vacation? Even if I was 22 and enjoyed partying I still wouldn’t want to stay at this hotel. The security guard spends his time chatting with women who look you up and down as you walk by- yeah we felt really safe…. *read sarcastic*. I am shocked at how many positive reviews this place has, maybe they do something to remove negative reviews? Go stay at a hotel with more than some absent minded security guard at the door at night, and one flimsy pole keeping cars out of the hotel entrance area. I’m so glad we got out of dodge asap and didn’t let this disaster of a “hotel” ruin our vacation. You should also know that the room door has no peep hole, or inside latch, it was difficult to tell if the door even locked once we were inside. It’s just a regular key. Lastly, the pictures online are a poor representation of the room. It was so cramped, in spite of us booking a suite, and it was not clean. I can’t imagine what it looked like pre “renovation”. Plus it’s never a good sign when you look out your window and see barbed wire…. this place isn’t suitable for anyone looking to enjoy their vacation.

We sincerely apologize, as the service received was not consistent with our standards. I can assure you your concerns were addressed with the relevant departments as we take such matters seriously and strive to provide a wonderful experience for our valued guests. Thank you also for your feedback on our rooms. We are quite sorry to learn of your discontent and will ensure that your major concerns outlined are addressed. The One-Bedroom Suites are located on each corner end of the property. Due to the location of these rooms, persons can view the St Lawrence Gap and neighboring properties from the room; and the breathtaking ocean views from the balconies. The One-Bedroom Suites can accommodate 2 adults or a family of 4 and are quite spacious compared to our Superior Studios and Junior Suites. All rooms were renovated in 2018 and are equipped with modern amenities along with key chains on the entrance doors. Regarding the noise in the St. Lawrence Gap area, our specific location does set us in the center of this. We try our very best to accommodate all room requests where possible and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused on this occasion. We apologize once again for not achieving our goal of providing you with the exceptional service we are widely known for and hope you give us the opportunity to provide such a service in the near future.

In so many respects this hotel is incredible… it’s been beautifully renovated and so much care and attention has been put into the hotel and pool area. The rooms are very clean and have all the amenities you’d need… a well equipped mini kitchen, iron and ironing board, big shower, very comfortable and large bed and plenty of room/storage. Not to mention the incredible view from the balcony of the ocean. You cannot beat lying in bed and waking up to see the turquoise waves rolling in. The pool and deck area looked incredible and were very highly maintained. The guys were constantly working to ensure it was kept that way. However, for all of the above the noise at night from the bar and club across the road was horrendous! We get that people are on holiday and enjoying a night out but some nights it would go on after 3am. It was so loud (even with the bathroom door and window shut) you could make out every word to every song and if it was karaoke night then you could here nothing but endless whaling. Some nights it would finish just after midnight to 1pm, which would of been ok but the majority of nights it just went on and on. We also felt there weren’t enough umbrellas/shaded pool area. Which is such as shame as it’s such a beautiful area. Unfortunately we’re not all blessed with the kind of skin where you can bask in the sun all day. I woke up at 7am one day and all the beds with umbrellas were taken. There were loungers free but nothing you could get in the shade so most days we’d pay to go to a local beach club or the main beach. The one morning we did go by the pool because we had an afternoon excursion that didn’t warrant us paying for loungers on the beach, one guest made a snotty remark about the table been moved from outside their room. I wasn’t aware that side of the deck was reserved for those rooms… especially just to sit and smoke. The following days after that they were ‘reserved’ for the smokers. Most rooms have a sea view and it is spectacular.

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. It is indeed wonderful to know that you enjoyed the facilities, including our lovely pool deck and the layout of our property. We can’t agree with you more about the spectacular view of the ocean, which can be seen from all of our rooms. It saddened us to know of the disturbance caused during your stay. The St. Lawrence Gap is known for its lively nightlife and entertainment, ranging from authentic restaurants to local nightclubs and other entertainment areas. Our specific location does set us in the center of this; however, we do have rooms that are not affected by these activities based on their locations. We are truly sorry we did not have the opportunity to assist in making your stay more comfortable during your time with us. Thank you once again for your feedback, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back again.
