If you don't want to rent a car, it's best to stay in Roseau, where you can get around better. But if you'd like to experience nature, head for one of the remote inns in exotic tropical settings.
Mosquito Alert
At night you are likely to be plagued with mosquitoes. If that's a real problem for you, check into the Fort Young Hotel, which is above the "mosquito line." Most hotels offer mosquito netting. Remember, you came to Dominica for unspoiled nature, right?
