This was a wonderful experience. Great privacy and beautiful views. I love it here.
We had a great week at Elaine’s. Very responsive to communication. The gated property is perfectly located in a quiet area in west central Dominica. The space is more than adequate with a full kitchen, dining room, living room with plenty of comfortable seating area and large TV, bedroom, and bathroom. Also has a washer and dryer which were a plus. The view from the balcony is outstanding. We are in and out of Dominica a few times per year. Hopefully, Elaine’s will be available next time. Don’t hesitate to book this one.
Very nice apartment, beautiful location. The apartment was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The balcony had an incredible 180 degree view of the coast. Very private, quiet and secure. The proximity to Mero (10 minute walk down the hill and 20 minute very steep walk back up) was a real bonus. This is a lovely village, with very friendly and welcoming locals, good food and possibly the best swimming beach on the island. The town is centrally located on the west coast so it's an easy trip north or south and to many of the hiking and snorkeling sites elsewhere on the island. The lodging and location are highly recommended.
The house is new and very clean. Ideally located near Mero and between Portsmouth and Roseau.
We'll appointed kitchen. Lots of supplies (towels, kitchen stuff, bed linen, etc).
Very quiet neighborhood with security cameras, lights and a steel gate entry for peace of mind.
Owner was very responsive with query. Definitely the best place to stay in Dominica so far.
It's a perfect place for rest and purification of the mine from the business of life. A nest to see the amazing work of the Most High YHWH and give HIM all the Praise Glory and Honor that belongs to HIM. A home away from home. Try it you will have no regret.
The location of Elaine's is perfect for exploring Dominica. We had a fantastic 11 day stay and managed to catch the sunset from the deck at Elaine's almost every night. The kitchen was reasonably well equipped, the place was clean with plenty of spare towels and beach towels, the AC worked very well (and was quiet!). The bed is on the firm/hard side but in good shape. Elaine and Kurt were quick at responding to small issues that arose and helpful as we tried to find our way around. Note that Dominica is not set up for tourists as many places are, so don't expect luxurious furnishings and spa-like surroundings, unless, like us, you consider this entire Island a natural spa beyond compare. But everything, from the wifi and smart TV to the shower and range, worked as it should and we found this the perfect place from which to launch our exploration of Dominica.One other note: Elaine's is expanding and there is an adjacent building under construction, but all work was stopped while there were guests in the dwelling. This was very much appreciated! We look forward to perhaps staying in the new addition sometime.
