My wife and I always look for a place to jet ski and we found the perfect place at Dover Beach in Barbados. The setting is perfect and the waves are ideal for quintessential adventure! My main man ANDY takes pride in making people feel comfortable and his Jet Skis are top of the line! He doesn't nickel and dime... More

Location is brill except for the beach sellers and local youths that hang out on the beach, local shops very pretty but not in abundance. Rooms are clean but need modernising, staff were not overly friendly or helpful but were by no means rude. I would choose a different hotel next time @c_mase5

My family and I are 5 times repeat guests at Escape and were really disappointed when it closed at the end of 2011. We went to Waves hotel in August this year and were delighted to find several of the Escape staff working there with the same warm and friendly atmosphere. I went to the Gap to check out Escape...

I hear Escape at the Gap is re-opening, well if it is I hope they have refurbished it prior to opening. We stayed here the week before it closed in November 2011, very disappointed in the standard of accomodation at this hotel and Im sure it was down to the fact the place was closing down which really affected our...

Heard that Escape at the Gap is re-opening but under new owners. Great news as this is the best holiday location we have had. Went to EATG for the last 4 years. Shame it won't be Virgin or original owners as the staff and manager made our holiday even better! Not sure when opening but been told opening soon. Excellent... More

We stayed here for 2 weeks in September and loved it. The rooms are basic but the hotel was clean, the staff polite and it had good food. I've travelled a lot and this was my fav trip. The whole experience was wonderful and I'm returning next year :)

Have got to say for the price, this was one fab holiday for us as a family of 5 with 3 boys. Watch out for public beaches where your be approached frequently by salespersons. Treat yourself to a suite which is a two floor, 2 balcony maisonette over looking the sea
