Bed and Breakfast in Windward Side

"Three of us came to Saba for the first time, for a diving vacation. We had a great time and Althea's Cottage worked out perfectly for us. The 2 bedrooms with bath were at opposite ends of the house, we had a kitchen with dining, a large living room sitting area and back yard patio area. We were able to use an outdoor clothesline daily for drying our diving attire. The cottage is located with convenient walking access several restaurants, 2 grocery stores, a delicious bakery. and the Swinging Door Bar. We went on 2 hikes which were also within walking distance. The weather was favorable to keeping the doors and winds open which allowed the tropical breeze to flow through the rooms. Jeff our host, was very accommodating and help us with any needs or questions. We all agree it would be nice to return."

"This is amazing place. I was so happy for having a chance to book the spyglass. If you plan to go visit Saba, this is the place to stay!!!"

"Very good manager. He took care of us like a good friend. When we couldn't find a taxi late in the night he even dropped by niece at the dome. Highly appreciated. "

"The new owners are working hard to refresh this historic property. The seaside location is a gem and the staff members are friendly and attentive (special shout-out to Julia). The full breakfast is a wonderful benefit, and my mahi-mahi dinner was absolutely delicious! An added bonus is the proximity to another excellent restaurant, as well as a scuba center for those who come to Statia to dive. Thanks to Peter and Jeanette and your amazing staff!"

"This place was beautiful, so peaceful and the views and pool were perfect. A well appointed kitchen and plenty of outdoor spaces to enjoy. Michael was an extremely helpful host coordinating transport easily and even making the occasional dinner reservation for us. Wonderful island, visit if you feel like completely relaxing!"

"Quiet and relaxing "

"Second stay at this gem of a property. If you are looking for a quiet relaxing place to stay while you hike Statia, this is your spot."

"We loved this place, even if part of the appeal was in knowing that other people would be too spoiled or uptight to deal with the long stairs, the uphill walk home from the restaurants, the composting toilet, the occasional visit from the cat, etc. The proprietors are very sincere, personable and helpful and have a great sense of humor. Prices are better than fair. The pool is a great asset and the breakfasts are solid. If you think of the rooms as forest cabins instead of a "hotel," it feels glamorous. We heartily recommend this place."

"Villa Fairview was gorgeous! The views and the ambiance are unbeatable, and visitors get the full island experience: amazing sunsets, hills, cloud cover, rain, and ocean breezes. Leaving the doors open is magical, but it does come with a side of insects that serve to contribute to the experience. The pool will cool you off on a hot day, and the place has everything you could need, including a great kitchen and laundry room. I’d definitely stay here again!"
