Windward Side · 整套乡村小屋 · 2室2床2.0卫 · 可住6人 · Althea Cottage
This cottage was built in a bygone era (1858) in Windwardside and features stunning views of the blue Caribbean, the misty top of spectacular Mt. Scenery, and the picturesque village below. Within 1-3 min you can walk to 2 grocery stores, 6 restaurants, 3 bars, the PO, a dive shop, 2 tourist shops, 2 churches, and a lovely park with museum. All net income is donated to my charities. I've become more of a minimalist in my retirement, enjoying people over things. I charge no cleaning fee. The cottage has been on Airbnb for over 9 years and is rented as a two bedroom space that sleeps 4-6. The second bedroom is an attached but separate unit with its own two entrances. If a couple only needs the main bedroom, then a $50/day reduction in the total house price is automatically calculated into your price. Each bedroom has a queen bed and ensuite bath. There is a full length twin trundle bed couch for 1 or 2 kids or adults which can be added on to the full house price for guests 5 and 6. There is nowhere like Saba. Getting there is a unique and exhilarating experience especially if you arrive by plane. Staying there is like remembering life before the 21st century...simple, super clean, fun, and very friendly. Currency is the US$ and power the same 110v. There is a bank of euro adapters for charging. The Saban version of English is spoken by everyone. The isle is politically a part of the Netherlands and about a third of the population is also fluent in Dutch. Spanish, German, French, and Tagalog are spoken to a lesser extent as well. In 2022 an adjacent detached efficiency apartment, Peter Hytte, was built so three couples may stay at one time and socialize together in the main cottage if desired.
Clean well supplied rental. Jeffery was always available if needed. Great local knowledge invaluable.
Le logement de Jeffrey est impeccable et idéalement situé !! Sans compter sur l’extrême gentillesse de Jeffrey qui est aux petits soins pour ses hôtes même quand il n’est pas sur place!! Je recommande à 100% et nous reviendrons ici lors de notre prochain séjour à Saba! Une merveilleuse découverte 🥰
It was so great that we came across Jeff and his place(which caters lots of history behind) during our visit to Saba! He is an amazing guy without whom you will never miss a single thing existing on the island! Place is simply beautiful and feels as home that shows how much an owner is dedicating to it! We loved it a lot! But Jeff is a Star 100 percent! He will make everything you want to do on the island as smooth as possible!
A beautiful, quiet and clean place with everything you need in it. Beds are very comfortable, bathrooms clean and nice. I felt right at home. And Jeffrey was super helpful and friendly. I would definitely stay here again and recommend to anyone looking for a spot right in the geart of Windwardside, Saba.
Guests will have access to a fully equipped kitchen with quality cookware, dishware and glassware, indoor and outdoor seating and dining options, unparalleled island and sea views, and walkable access to local restuarants, shops, grocery stores, and outdoor bars for socializing all within the distance of a football field or nearer.
There are excellent diving opportunties from taking lessons to highly advanced dives throughout the world renowned Saba Marine Park replete with numerous wall dive sites. Hikers can explore the many marked trails alone or with a guide for the more remote regions of the island. Inform yourself about many aspects of the natural world in October by joining the free Sea & Learn Program.
Three couples traveling together can add on the adjacent Peter Hytte efficiency apartment so each has their own bathroom. Eating and socializing is easy for six people in the main cottage.
Hop into any taxi for the ride up to the house upon arrival at the airport or the Fort Bay. For stays of one week or more the arrival taxi cost is included and we will arrange it. You can hire a driver to give you an island tour or rent a car and drive yourself on our somewhat narrow, walled, curving, rising, and plunging roads. For daily needs a car will not be necessary. You can walk all over the island and if it gets too tiring, just sit on a wall with your thumb out and a friendly local will give you a lift.
自我介绍
I'm a retired family doc who loves learning languages and traveling throughout Europe. I also operated a large B&B in Phoenix, Arizona, for 10 years after my retirement from practicing medicine in 2001. I enjoy meeting hosts in smaller towns and learning about the local history and culture. I prefer smaller, basic accommodations that are comfortable and close to amenities such as restaurants. I often travel by car and if parking is not available at the home, I would appreciate help finding it nearby. I also host Althea Cottage and the adjacent Peter Hytte on Saba Island in the Dutch Caribbean where I live primarily. My former residence is now a winter/spring rental home at Lake Chapala, Mexico, where I return to spend my summers.
