“Just beautiful!”
My husband and I travel frequently. The Ocean Two ranks among our top 3 hotels. Water front rooms have amazing balconies & views of blue-green water and palm trees. The white sand beach was stunning & clean, very swimmable with playful waves. Shallow under water is rocky in places, but you can easily walk/wade 3 minutes around the corner to bigger Dover beach. The pools, though just a bit small, are cool and inviting. The lounge chairs are the comfiest we've ever laid on. The decor is crisp, pretty, modern. Room was well equipped & had linens/pillows that made for a beautiful sleep. O2 staff were incredibly nice, gracious, accommodating. Dover Market, just across the street, had most groceries you'd need. Young locals were boisterous at times, but in our experience very nice, friendly and helpful. The neighbourhood is lively and just 10ish minute walk to St. Lawrence Gap, with an even greater selection of restaurants, bars, and shops. Cafe Sol & Pisces were very good for taste & atmosphere. A short taxi or bus away was Tapas with delicious food & exquisite setting. Get an ocean front table at sunset, wow. ZR mini van/buses run fast, frequent, and cheap to anywhere for 1$US. Go see Bathsheba, west & south coast beaches, St. John's Church. Bridgetown was interesting, but just okay. Maybe coincide your trip to B'town with a cruise visit so shops/restaurants are all open. Waterfront boardwalk was nice though. Highly recommend Ocean Two & Barbados overall!!! So lovely!
