Garden Cottage - Saba
Rent our beautiful Saba Garden Cottage. Garden Cottage is located on Booby Hill, a short walking distance to the quaint village of Windwardside. The villa was built in the traditional Saba style featuring a 100-year old stone and brick hearth and using wooden pegging to join timbers. With windows facing every exposure, there is always a constant cooling breeze.

More Info:
Saba is approximately five square miles in size and nearly 3,000 feet in elevation. The island has four villages: Windwardside, Hell's Gate, St. Johns, and The Bottom-the seat of the island government. The highest point on the island, Mt. Scenery, is also the highest point in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Mt. Scenery is the home of the Elfin Forest, Saba's rain forest. Schooling on the island includes the equivalent of the 10th grade under the U.S. system. Beyond that level students must travel abroad. Saba University School of Medicine with 300 students, faculty and family has become a major factor in the economic life of the community.
Saba is located southeast of St. Maarten. It can be reached by scheduled airline or ferry.
Amenities:
Numerous windows spread sunshine and tropical breezes throughout the house. The fully-equipped kitchen opens on a rear courtyard entered through a Dutch door. The 100-year old stone and brick hearth is built from sailing ship ballast bricks and hand-carved stones joined by a mortar of crushed limestone and molasses.
The living/dining room has an open beam ceiling with hips at each end. The bathroom has a double vanity, huge tiled shower with windows opening to Caribbean vistas and a separate water closet. Both bedrooms have individually controlled air conditioning and double beds. The den is furnished with a cozy couch, comfy chair and cable TV. The cottage also has a CD/tape player and telephone.
Outside:
Our cottage faces the Southern Caribbean and enjoys dramatic sunsets most of t
he year across a 180-degree sea view.
In keeping with the fairy tale quality of Saba's villages our cottage is painted white with green & white shutters and has a red roof. Equally impressive is the presence of Mt. Scenery nearly shadowing the pool deck, where a dozen royal palm trees give the appearance of a romantic oasis. The large beautifully tiled front deck is a wonderful place to watch for the green flash.

Caribbean Travel Tip
Safety Tips
Crime Information. Most visitors to the Caribbean have a relatively safe trip. However, thievery, purse snatching, and pick pocketing do happen, particularly in cities and at beaches. There has also been an increase in violent crimes, such as rape and assault against tourists. In some places, U.S. passports and identity documents are especially attractive to thieves. Robbery of yachts is a problem in some marinas.
Here are some precautions to keep in mind:
-- Safety begins when you pack. Leave expensive jewelry, unnecessary credit cards, and anything you would hate to lose at home.
-- Use a concealed money pouch or belt for passports, cash, and other valuables.
-- To facilitate replacing a lost or stolen passport, carry two extra passport photos and a photocopy of your passport information page and other identity documents with you in a separate place from those items.
-- Do not take valuables to the beach. When possible, use the hotel safe when you go to the beach or into town.
-- When you enter a marina, register with the local government authorities.
