We just returned from a week on Saba where we stayed at Flamboyant Cottage. The entire experience was great. The communication with the owners was excellent. They are very responsive and helpful. The local caretaker, Michael, was friendly and available, but not at all intrusive. The view out the front door of the ocean, St. Eustatius, St Kitts and Nevis is stunning. We already miss the breezes, the quiet nights sitting out front, and breakfast in the gazebo. The property is on a private road in a quiet area, but only a short walk from Windwardside where groceries, shops, and restaurants are available. It’s remarkable how many amazing restaurants are in such a small area on a small island, whether you’re enjoying the lion fish at Brigadoon, a pizza at The Long Haul, appetizers and drinks at The Hideaway, or the eclectic menu at Saba Snack. The cottage was very clean and comfortable, though well-worn. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to make a nice breakfast. Saba is not an ideal place to rent a car, so taxis and walking are the way to get around. The house is down a steep hill, and not every taxi driver will drive down. We are in our 50s and in reasonably good shape for our age. While we did fine walking around and hiking, we would find ourselves winded after the short walk to the top of the hill. Saba is a hilly island, so it could be something to consider for those who might have difficulty walking up and down hills every day. Saba is a very safe place, and the locals are very friendly. We aloved how pet-friendly it was. It was very common to see people out with their dogs and in restaurant outdoor seating areas. Whether you’re going to Saba to dive, hike, or relax, Flamboyant Cottage is a great place to stay.
