Find hotels near Emerald Pool, from SAR 238

"The hotel location was great, right in the middle of town. The amenities were good. The workout room was nice. The manager reception once a week was a pleasant touch. The staff was mostly friendly. At times a bit too laid back with requests. "

"The cottage looks even better in person than the online pictures show. The view down the valley is very nice. We very much enjoyed breakfast each morning watching the humming birds and an occasional iguana or agouti passing by below the railing. Privacy is very good but the outdoor shower and a corner of one room are in view of the cottage next door. We used the indoor shower. The cottage is open to the outdoors so you will encounter the occasional lizard, bug or bird in the living space and there is no temperature control other than fans. I love my AC but didn't miss it at all. The surrounding ocean moderates the temperature and we actually needed a blanket at night. We slept under the mosquito net but I don't recall seeing a single mosquito all week. The location of the cottage is perfect for visiting many of Dominica's best hikes and attractions. We had a rental car which I would recommend. Finding the cottage at night is nearly impossible because the sign is located above your driving lights. Here is an easy way to find it. After you pass Cocoa Cottage, the road goes left and then back right. After the right hand turn go about 100 yards and you will spot a narrow lane on the right passing through dense vegetation. That is the driveway. There are very few nice restaurants in the area. Ginette, the hostess, is a wonderful person and she can set you up to have a nice dinner delivered some nights. Lacou Melrose House in Roseau is also an excellent option. "

"The host was chill, friendly, helpful, and accommodating. We paid for the shuttle service which was very convenient. The location is within walking distance from many great sites, including Trafalgar falls. I'd recommend staying for more than 1 night to really enjoy the area. The spa and natural pools in the river where perfectly refreshing. There is no bug net, but the fan did the trick and there weren't many biting bugs around anyway. I'd highly recommend the dinner! The portions are generous!"

"The grounds are stunningly beautiful. Almost worth 10/10 in itself but a couple of things are below par. The pool area is neglected and needs some investment, eg new lounger cushions that can withstand the rain. The food is hit and miss. Breakfast generally very good but a bit chaotic. It really lacks attention to detail by some experienced food and beverage eyes! Although they reply to all ratings it seems to me no actions have been taken regarding some complaints. Eg I still got plastic straws!"

"This is more a review of the host as the Binks apartment location had some issue according to the host and so I stayed at an alternate location provided by the host. Upon arrival to Roseau and having access to Wifi I was made aware of alternate arrangements. The host picked me up and took me to the other location in Warner which was quite far from the main areas. However it was a large house with a garden and beautiful view so was an upgrade. I decided to explore around there for a day and then the host was able to provide an different alternate apartment in the city instead, once he understood my need for acess to buses as i was walking and had no car. Which worked out well for getting around. The whole experience worked to my favour as I was able to experience more of the island this way. But it was a bit more complicated than expected however the host was very accommodating."

"Lovely views across the street to the ocean, worth taking a camera there with you, birdlife including humming birds, and the sunsets over the ocean, twice we saw the elusive "green flash". They have hire cars next to the accommodation. You will need a hire card to get around or organise a driver / licenced tour guide & vehicle to get around"

"Amazing location with beautiful views. The staff took great care of us throughout our visit. Thank you. "

"Beautiful nature, peaceful and quiet. Thank you!"

"The staff, room and property were all amazing - would definitely return! Great location for hikes and activities up the valley. "
