The room was clean and nice, the staff was welcoming, and having the bistro on-site was very accommodating and helpful when you do not want to go out for breakfast or lunch. My only complaint was that the room was smaller than expected, and the room only had one sink that you had to use for the bathroom/kitchen.

Room was great! My sister & I spent 10 days in Barbados. We looked for ice a few times. No ice machine but you can get it free at the pool bar. Then we found ice cube trays in our fridge! Genius! You are just around the corner from Dover market for some groceries, treats or alcohol. Just down the street from the beach. Great location. Room had maid service every other day. Room was clean & a good size. Had a nice balcony. Safe & drawers for clothes. Cupboard for any food you may have brought. Kettle, fridge & microwave .. TV … counter by door & kitchen counter. We had room under our kitchen counter to place our empty suitcases. Staff was very friendly .. especially Charis on the front counter. Very secure place. Needed your key to get into building. We would stay again! Thank you!

Lovely small hotel. Our room was large and clean, with a nice big balcony. There was a bit of industrial noise from an adjacent property, and a rogue rooster, but nothing earplugs couldn’t take care of. The standout attributes of the Melbourne are the very friendly and professional service and the pool-side bistro, which is beautifully furnished and decorated and the food is excellent. Even if we don’t stay there again, if we are in the area, we will return for the breakfast burrito!
