Homestays in Saint-Barthélemy

"#1 - Maryann is the BEST! Her rooms are clean and the place is so welcoming. It is located up in the mountains, so the nights are cool. It’s also right on a bus route so you can get anywhere on the island by bus. She gave me great ideas and I went to most of the places she suggested. I look forward to returning."

No screens on the windows

"Jay being very hospitable!!!! If you are looking for a comfortable place to stay with no frills this is the place!! Very clean. Beach and bar at the end of the street."

If we had a chance to stay longer

"Everything clean and neat. All essential things was there if you wants to cook."

It’s just on 2nd bathroom the heater don’t work.

"Wonderful stay fabulous breakfast spotlessly clean. Hosted by a delightful family super helpful. The host is a great guide to local landmarks hiking and more. we wish we could have stayed longer"

"That’s amazing studio flat in a very nice hotel. It is sad that is sharing apartment, but you don’t share anything. You have your private bathroom, washing machine, private kitchen, private balcony, the only thing you share is one door to get to your flat. There are food shops and restaurants all around. Tram and bus stops very close. Metro station is about 1 km away, but you can take tram to get there, it takes two stops. Apartment was clean, nice clean white sheets, clean good towel, shampoo and hair conditioner. Security downstairs so you feel absolutely safe. Location is good for taking a walk by the marina to see yachts and a wonderful view to all buildings around. Wi-fi was good."

There is nothing in the kitchen, no spoons, no forks, no cups, no plates, absolutely empty. I had to buy a cup just to make coffee. Had to wait host for 1,5 hour. The main things to see are far away from the property, you need to take metro and ride 10-15 stops to see burj khalifa, the frame, future museum and ect. At least it’s one line. There was bad smell in the kitchen (can’t understand where it was coming from) had to keep balcony’s door open all the time. Very noisy street outside, cars and trams traffic all the time.

"It's located conveniently near the town center but still very secluded and peaceful. The bedding was extremely comfortable."

The food was okay but could have been nicer. Bring your mosquito repellent!

"Very personal stay. The owner is a bee keeper and I loved seeing the bees home. The bees didn't bother me or my dog at all. Close to shops and cafes."

"Everything! The host Mishko was there all the time, on call for everything. We're more than glad that he and his wife waited and assisted with the directions even though we arrived after 10 pm. The house is on the beach, in a quiet neighborhood-terrific if you want to relax. The view of the lake can not be described with words. There is a market at the next street open on Sunday. The place is worth more than the price."

"Everyone in Paea's family was so warm and friendly! We were immediately welcomed and made to feel at home. The room was private, and the strong fan kept us cool. The home is a short walk to the beach, and we enjoyed walking along the waterfront into town. It was far from city nose and peaceful at night. 'Ofa and Saffron picked us up from the airport, waited while we bought phone data, drove us to a market for produce, and then drove us to the store for other food before helping us get settled in. 'Ofa drove us back to the airport when we left and offered to stop anywhere we wanted to see as well. They are wonderful people. -Denise and David"

The airport ride cost is not posted online before booking (100 TOP each way), but taking everything into account, the cost seems reasonable; the family is willing to get you what you need in town, and they are lovely to talk with on the way. The airport is 40 minutes away even without any stops. Still, if you are a visitor on a tighter budget, you may want to find somewhere closer to the airport. (This wasn't something we "didn't like" but rather something we thought we would mention for visitors who may not know transportation in Tonga can be pricey.)

"Hosts were super friendly, very helpful and kind. Silvio gave me a ride back to airport when I arrived and needed to pick up my partner (we traveled separately there). The house and the room were nice and clean, huge fridge and well equipped kitchen for the guests to use. Netflix with guest account in the room was a nice extra. Big terrace with sunbeds. The location itself was lovely, locals were friendly and helpful as well. Airport is very close, 40 mins walk or 6 mins with the car."

I know it's not the hosts fault, because there was an issue with the pool due the construction works in the neighborhood the time we're staying there and we couldn't use it. Would have been nice, because the pool itself is pretty big.

"The view and the terrace were amazing. It was all very clean. John & Gloria are great hosts."

The bed was a little small.for.the two of us.

"This is an excellent small guesthouse and the hosts are extremely friendly and helpful. Everything was clean and comfortable. The area is very quiet and Bahir Dar is one of the most beautiful cities in Africa. The hosts, Ashenafi and Habtamu, showed us around and made us feel very welcome."

This is a new guesthouse and they are still getting all the facitilties that a western tourist would expect, but everything important was there including shower, cooking facilities, chairs and tables in the patio and a barbeque!

"Close to the airport, very friendly staff, warm acceptance, low price."

"The owner is super friendly and gave loads of recommendations about Westport. Also gave us a lift into the city centre after greeting us 😁"

Not really any downside about the accommodation. A car is needed as you cant really walk from there into town, but there is on-site parking and taxi services.

"Great sized comfortable room with fridge and kettle/ tea ‘n coffee plus outdoor table and chairs. Off street parking and external access with key. Good shower and facilities"

Nothing worth mentioning

Breakfast was very meagre.

"Felex, Asinja and the kids were so welcoming! They cook delicious food with local produce. Felex is always up for a chat and coordinating a wonderful community project in the village. It’s a simple room but basic amenities, but a truly unique experience."

I liked it all!

"Kevin was a helpful and informative host . He is also a good cook , delivering large portions of food at mealtimes . The house is a pretty cottage in a nice setting ."

I struggled to get hot water in the shower for a while . The road nearby is quiet which is good for sleeping but not so good for public transport .

Un poco la recepción y no saber que hacer o no hacer. Nunca vi a mi host.
