Beautiful location in the middle of the rainforest. To wake every morning to the sounds of the rainforest was divineâŠ. The hammock got very well used!
The property is close to Douglas Charles airport, which is great, but it is extremely isolated if you donât have your own car. It wasnât easy to persuade tours to pick up here as most operated from Roseau on the other side of the island.
The staff are extremely hard working and very kind
The only problem with my stay is that I requested pick up from the airport when I arrived in Dominica. I supplied all my details by email and this was confirmed. Unfortunately it didnât happen though, which is very disconcerting when landing in a country very different to your own when it is dark.
I had to resort to using a local taxi, which to say was terrifying is probably an understatement! Think curvy mountain roads at speed and overtaking on blind bends. Driver laughed at me when I asked him to slow down
Unfortunately this did not create a good first impression, but it was more than made up for by the rest of my stay which was exceptional!
Particular love to the 2 Hibiscus dogs who are gorgeous!
A small kettle in each room would be appreciated. As the property is so isolated it isnât a case of walking somewhere to get a hot drink once breakfast is over. Also, either leaving some cool water out during the day for guests to top up water bottles or providing bottled water would be a good touch- not easy to obtain water with no car.
