It is the Caribbean as it used to be; the Caribbean as it should be. The village of Windwardside is where most restaurants and shops are located. Garden Cottage is a short walk away yet removed from the hustle and busel of commerce. 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. 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 the 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 and 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. Saba is considered a world-class scuba diving destination. There are well maintained haiking trails. Saba also has a wonderful Day Spa for your enjoyment.
