Beach, jetty, and beautiful sea from our place in St Lawrence Gap, Barbados
Location: St. Lawrence, St. Lawrence Gap Area, Christ Church, Barbados, Caribbean (On the beach in Barbados, Christ Church, St Lawrence Gap) View Map
Accommodations: Condominium, 2 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 4)
My partner and I (I'm American; he's Barbadian) are so taken with the paradise that is Barbados that we purchased three beautiful seaside condos on Barbados' south coast. We live in one and rent out the other two. All are in St Lawrence Beach Condos in St Lawrence Gap, Barbados.
Over time, I've come to represent a number of condo owners at St Lawrence Beach Condos and so if ours are booked, please inquire about another in the same building.
We are in the heart of the action area of the famous St. Lawrence Gap ("gap" means street) and right at the edge of the gorgeous clear aqua sea.
We offer our rental at exceptional value; it's beautifully appointed and well-equipped for families, couples, and singles who wish to visit and enjoy a holiday that's action-packed or quiet and serene.
Barbados has more repeat visitors than any of the Caribbean islands and, according to the Caribbean Tourism Organisation (CTO), 34% of all arrivals to Barbados are repeat visitors.
It's easy to see why: The climate averages ideal temperatures in the winter of 75-82 degrees Farenheit and in summer a warmer but still lovely 88-92. Gentle tradewinds from the sea keep us cool and we rarely turn on the air-conditioning, although it's available throughout our unit. People are friendly, the sea is crystal clear, and the rum fantastic. A perfect holiday getaway.
If you have any questions, I invite you to contact me.
Again, please contact me about other seaside holiday rental apartments in the same building.

Wonderful soft jazz, good food, fun people-watching along St Lawrence Gap
Everyone loves it! Lively with music and great food and friendly folks ... fish caught that day - it's great!
Love this place ... Barbados artist Jill Walker's playful art prints (as well as place mats, mugs, other wonderful home items). Take home a piece of Barbados!
Owner's Map of St. Lawrence
Funny how a transplant sings the praises of a place loudest.
That's me. I started visiting Barbados in 2007; I moved to Barbados in January of 2008; and I married my Bajan (local word for "Barbadian") sweetheart in January of 2009.
I so much loved awakening to the stunning, sparkling Caribbean Sea that I bought a second unit in our building, St Lawrence Beach Condominiums, to let as a holiday rental - and am now buying a second holiday rental in the building. I also represent other owners' places in the building.
The value I can offer guests is outstanding: A stunning and expansive sea view from beautiful apartments, beautiful small white beach, and a location in the heart of the lively and famous St Lawrence Gap.
