Last time we stayed in Roseau and finished in the north. This time we wanted to start in the north because of the extraordinary beauty of this part of the island. I have no doubt we will be back again. The cottages are in a superb location and the beaches are perfect here.

April 2003 ---What an unforgetable week we had ! The cottage was perfect for the four of us--very comfortable with everything we needed.Snorkeling and exploring the islands here at Hodges Beach was cool!

Dominica's greatest little hidden secret.

I almost don’t want people to find out about this little
spot in paradise. The cottages are about the best accommodations
on the island, with a view fit for a king. If you like trails,
rivers, jungles and lots of fresh fruit and fish, this is the
place for you. The studio is fine for one or two people and it
offers the best views. There are also two- and three-bedroom accommodations
available. Town is nearby, but rent a car if you want to see the
island up-close. My friends and I came by private plane during
our 30-day island hopping mission and were able to see the entire
island from above; it was amazing.

March 2003---We arrived a bit late and frazzled due to unplanned travel circumstances but as soon as we walked in the cottage door it all melted away. We had expected it to be far more rustic and were delighted with all its amenities.----We will definately return and recommend this accommodation to anyone visiting Dominica.

February 2003---This tranquillity is hard to find anywhere else. Just sitting on the porch and enjoying the view were some of my more blissful moments. Happiness pure ! We loved it here and we most certainly will be back, rather sooner than later

March 2003 ...Thank you for the use of your airy,comfortable house in this beautiful, beautiful place. The only thing that would have made our stay better is if we could have stayed an additional week

My family and I stayed in the Oceanview Cottage next door (owned
by the same family) and saw the inside of one of the Sea Cliff
Cottaqes. This is a cluster of four homes/cottages each self-sufficent
and well appointed. The walk to town is a good 20 minutes with
a couple of restaurants and friendly people. We did our 6 day
vacation without a car - hiring the grounds keeper to drive us
around, it was OK but we'll rent a car next time. The walk to
the beach involves a long, steep (maybe muddy) climb that anyone
in reasonable shape and flexibilty can handle - but this is more
difficult than a steep staircase so judge for yourself. One elderly
couple in a cottage were surprised and disappointed by the difficulty.
My family, including two children 8 and 11, loved it and had no
problem. The beach is black sand and pure rustic - but it is in
a protected cove with an island a few hundred feet off shore and
some reasonably good snorkeling. There is also a fresh water river
feeding into the ocean at this point - don't be discouraged if
the ocean/river water looks brown and muddy, that just means it
recently rained in the mountains and it will clear up to sparkling
clear in a few hours. Overall, highly recommended for a non-touristy
vacation; we are going back this year. A word to the wise, keep
a couple of gallons of water on hand, the "city" water
supply has been known to be out for 12 - 24 hours.

In April of 2000, my girl friend and I stayed at the Sea Cliff
Cottages for 8 days.We had the best vacation of our lives. The
owners, Jim and Gwen were the greatest hosts and we were treated
almost like family, it was Jim's birthday while we were staying
there and we celibrated with them like we all had known them forever,
a warm feeling when you are a long way from home. Pascal and Wendy
were very helpful in showing us around the area and where the
necessities were located. The cottages are located on the north
part of Dominica at Calibishi and are self contained. We did most
of our own cooking while we were there. We put out the word that
we would like some lobster and in a couple of days some local
people showed up with the largest, most beautiful lobster ever!
We were well looked after at the Sea Cliff Cottages and made to
feel very welcome and comfortable, the best! Elaine

April 2002...Our second trip to Dominica. We have been looking forward since last year to returning to Sea Cliff. It was a pleasure to finally meet Jim and Gwen and see Gweneth, Augustus and Pascal again. Jim and Gwen, thank you. We have never felt so cared for and ay the same time so secluded and independant. If you can tear yourself away from the view, the breeze, the sounds of the birds and surf.........

July 2002...Another great ham Radio operation from Sea Cliff. We have now made over 40,000 points of contacts to all points of the earth from here. This is our fourth operation from Sea Cliff. Excellent service provided as usual. Will be back in November.

July 2002...We've had a blast !! Due to circumstances we've had the pleasure of staying at three of the four cottages. We've enjoyed each of their unique qualities but the one bedroom home is above and beyond !! The staff have been fantastic. Thanks to Pascal and Augustus we learned to cook some local dishes--Yum !

July 2001..This cottage is wonderful and the view is truly spectacular. The beautiful beach and this incredible veranda provided the perfect contrast to the thrills, chills and general excitement on our daily roller coaster ride on Dominican roads.

June 2002...What a great find on the internet ! We have stayed in nice RCI-Affiliated resorts in Guadeloupe, Martinique, St.Martin and the Dominican Republic but none have the dramatic setting of this cottage. The staff have been wonderful.
