The Hummingbird Inn

A 3km (1 3/4-mile) drive from Roseau and the Canefield Airport and a 2-minute walk to the beach, this hilltop retreat is a great little bargain. Opening onto panoramic views, the rooms are in two bungalows and have louvered windows and doors to capture the breezes in lieu of air-conditioning. Ceiling fans hum day and night, and you can also retreat to terraces with hammocks. Each of the accommodations has bedside tables and reading lamps (not always a guarantee on Dominica). The handmade quilts on the beds add a homey touch. One four-poster bed, a mammoth wooden affair, is 250 years old. This is a friendly, family-style place, and there are lovely gardens with exotic plants that attract both hummingbirds and iguanas.
