Sapphire Beach - Luxury beach side split level self catering apartment

One of only 58 residences in the Sapphire Beach complex, Amikka is a duplex apartment of 1630 sq ft, situated right on Dover Beach on Barbados’ South West coast. Downstairs the apartment comprises a double bedroom with king sized bed, en-suite shower room, washer drier and plentiful storage space. Sliding doors open onto your own patio and onto one of Sapphire Beach’s two private fresh water swimming pools with gated access directly onto Dover Beach. Upstairs there is a further double bedroom with king sized bed (rear facing) and en-suite bathroom, plentiful storage, fully fitted and well equipped kitchen, spacious living area leading onto a large covered balcony. Balcony has a six seat table for al fresco dining, whilst the double arch windows give you the opportunity to dine in privacy. The balcony is south facing and from here you will see fantastic sunsets over the Caribbean Sea. The apartment comes with TV, iPod dock, air-con in both bedrooms & lounge. Sapphire Beach has a private gym.


The local beach: our family has been lucky enough to be holidaying in Barbados for a good number of years. So we knew that one of the critical factors for us when we decided to purchase a property on island was the quality of the beach and the safety of the water. We know from experience that there are many beautiful properties on island but the beaches and sea around them can be difficult for young or inexperienced or unsteady swimmers and we wanted to ensure that our whole family, every generation, could enjoy their time together all day. Dover Beach is beautiful but also gently shelving and with much calmer water than even the immediately adjacent beach which we have struggled to swim from. It is the choice of local families at weekends for good reason!

The island: At just 21 miles long and 14 miles wide, Barbados rivals destinations several times its size. Surrounded by over 70 miles of white sand beaches distinguished as some of the finest in the Caribbean, the island has long attracted visitors to its shores. With a beautiful landscape dotted by pristine golf courses, polo fields and elegant estates, world-class restaurants, vibrant night life and an exciting social calendar of cultural, music and sporting events, Barbados is truly an island paradise.

The climate: Just outside the main hurricane belt, the island enjoys year-round sunshine, cooling north-east trade winds and just enough rainfall to maintain its lush tropical gardens, gullies and rolling green fields of sugar cane.

The people: Perhaps the island’s greatest asset is the warmth of its people. Barbadians are proud of their home and welcome visitors with open arms, making them feel as if they have lived next door all their life. We welcome you to experience the island’s unique culture and get a feel of what it truly means to be ‘Bajan’.

Great spring break!
Very accurate description / photos. Location was close to airport but also walkable to the “gap” with restaurants and bars. Condo was clean. Perfect for our family spring break.

Fantastic stay in Barbados
The location in St. Lawrence Gap was ideal. Close to all amenities. You could not beat the access to Dover Beach. The accommodation was well stocked and felt like home.

Amazing property for 2 couples
We had a fantastic week with our group of 2 couples and the property is perfect for that with 2 huge double bedroom suites. The apartment was really well equipped, especially the kitchen. Location couldn't have been better in the heart of St Lawrence gap. We loved the split level with direct access to the pool from the ground floor and an amazing view of the sea from the massive first floor balcony. Thanks to the hosts for providing such a great apartment and the excellent communication from them on the run up to our stay.

We will be coming back
This property ticks all of our boxes. Clean, modern, comfortable. I believe that every amenity has been thought of. Including a fridge with ice maker and water dispenser, beach towels, drink cooler, pots and pans, quality bedding and towels and more. Easy access to the pool and beach, not sure what more we could ask for.

Third time ….
Yet again another excellent stay at Mike and Andrea’s lovely apartment. Great property with direct access to a pool and the beach. The lively evening attractions of St Lawrence Gap are a 10-15 minute stroll away. Check in check out was very easy. Great communication as always from Mike and Andrea. Dover beach is one of the best on the island IMHO. If you need a reliable driver call Jamal on +1 (246) 833-6180. He’s professional, punctual and knowledgeable (as well as great company). He also responds to WhatsApp

Great stay on the Gap
This property is perfect. The pool is right outside the door. The beach is just outside the pool area. There are plenty of lounge chairs and umbrellas for rent on the beach. The sand on the beach is soft and does not get hot under your feet. The view of the pool and ocean from the balcony is fabulous. The condo was very clean and it has a great layout of 1 bedroom and bath downstairs and 1 bedroom and bath upstairs by the living room and kitchen. There were many great restaurants in walking distance. My parents and my husband and I loved our stay here and enjoyed the island.

Perfect spot!!
Great experience staying at Sapphire beach for my second time! The pool and the ocean being right in front of you is perfect for beach lovers and pool side dwellers alike! Lots of amenities close by. Only negative would be is the roasters crowing at 4:00 am but it does become kind of comical. Hope to visit sometime again soon!
