Saba Hotel Reviews

Saba's few hotel rooms are primarily in a handful of friendly, tidy inns or guesthouses perched on ledges or tucked into tropical gardens. Because the island is so small, it doesn't much matter where you stay. Among the choices are a couple of delightful small inns and splendid, small ecoresorts. There are also more than a dozen apartments, cottages, and villas for rent. Cable TV is common, but air-conditioning is a rarity.

Cottage Club. Form follows function at these gingerbread bungalows, where the price is right and the proximity to downtown is ideal. The reception area is a cozy room with black marble floors and beamed ceilings. The bungalows sprawl down the side of the mountain, affording a bird's-eye view of the surf crashing into the rocks hundreds of feet below. (Nos. 1, 2, and 6 have the most striking vistas.) A pool with an awesome view is tucked away in the trees, giving it the feel of a true tropical hideaway. Each room has a queen-size bed (one room has a king) and TV. Larger rooms have a kitchenette; smaller ones have some kitchen facilities but no stove. Pros: walking distance to Windwardside; lushly landscaped pool with a gorgeous view; majestic lobby-reception room. Cons: stark suites; no on-site dining; some of the walks to the rooms are steep; no a/c. Windwardside. 599/416-2486. www.cottage-club.com. 10 cottages, some wheelchair accessible. In-room: no a/c, kitchen. In-hotel: pool.
