Frommer's Review

The most eco-friendly place to stay on island is this cluster of small wooden cottages enveloped by tropical gardens 475m (1,500 ft.) up Booby Hill. The Robinson Crusoe-like nature retreat is about a 10-minute walk from Windwardside. Decorated with original artwork, cottages are filled with handmade wooden furniture and colorful fabrics. In 2008, the resort became the first 100% smoke-free hotel on Saba. The owners make their own banana rum and vanilla rum liqueurs, which you can purchase on-site.

Facilities:
Vegetarian snack bar; outdoor pool

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
