Fodor's Expert Review Ocean Inn

Views of English Harbour, affable management, and affordability distinguish this homey inn whose main house has six snug guest rooms (two share a bathroom); the four hillside cottages are the nicest (especially Numbers 8 and 9). The owners can provide light dinners with advance notice, though restaurants are only a short hike away. There are several beaches within a 10-minute drive. Guests meet for continental breakfast on the deck and drinks at the Honesty Bar (where you write up your tab), to be had on a lounger by the pool, which is also patronized by a cheeky iguana.
