There’s a bit of everything in the St Lawrence Gap of Barbados: fish shacks, beach bars, nightclubs, restaurants, artists, characters and rum shops.

It’s the bustling, ever-energetic, colorful corner of the south coast of Barbados, a slice of life and a necessary stop on any trip to the island.

But there’s something hidden away here, a well-guarded secret that’s one of the island’s best places to stay.

It’s called the Ocean Two Resort and Residences, and it’s a modern, beautifully furnished resort right on a wonderful stretch of south coast beach.

It’s long been a favorite among travelers in the know, thanks to some of the most modern rooms on the island, terrific service and, well, a hard to beat location in the heart of the Gap.

But now the secret’s out.
