Avis Historic Saban cottage in Windwardside, all amenities only a 2 minute walk away!

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.

Very pleased with the responsiveness of the owner, and location of the property. Exactly what we were looking for. Hope to stay again.

Amazing cottage. We canceled our plans in Philipsburg to spend 5 nights on Saba. Great choice! The island is incredible and this cottage in Windwardside was perfect for us. We enjoyed world-class scuba diving with Sea Saba. Easy walk to bakery, markets, bars and restaurants. Near several hiking trails. We did not rent a car and did not need one. Excellent host! Highly recommend!

Our stay in Saba was spectacular! The cottage is charming, comfortable, functional and ideally located above Windwardside. It was a perfect home base for our daily hiking, and diving activities. We cooked most of our meals and found the kitchen to be well equipped including pots, pans, skillets, utensils, spices, etc. The house is located very close to two grocery stores that we found offered a great selection compared to many other carribean islands that we have visited. The matress was extremely comfortable and the house was never too warm due to a constant breeze. We enjoyed the cool breeze in the evening. The bathroom is functional and even had an ample supply of shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The island, cottage and people we met made me feel as if I had traveled back in tome to a bygone era. The diving was good and the hiking spectacular. We did not rent a car, but probably will on our next visit so that we can explore more of the island. The car rental facility is right down the hill from the house. Be sure to hike to Mt. Scenery, enjoy a dinner at Tropics, visit Saba lace and learn about the amazing history of the "Saba Lace Ladies" who continue to carry on the rich tradition. The island is impeccably clean and we did not encounter one homeless animal (very different from many of the islands we have visited). Jeff is a warm and friendly host who we enjoyed chatting with. I highly reccomend visiting Saba and staying at Althea cottage!

We arrived on Saba to be greeted by the driver that had been arranged by our host. We were then driven up to the charming village of Windward Side. Please anticipate taking lots of pictures and video. The host, Jeff was friendly and welcoming, as well as being an oracle of invaluable information on this unique island. He went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. The cottage is like something out of a Hemingway novel. Only wish we could have stayed a bit longer. We would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Saba!

It was an epic experience amazing charming house! Jeff and Cece and Peddy were amazing and in constant communication. If you ever get a chance definitely visit this island and this cottage!

This cottage is top notch. Very comfortable and well located in the heart of Windwardside close to markets, shopping and good restaurants. It has everything you need for a short or long stay. Patio out back right under Mt. Scenery where you can see the clouds over the top of mt. Beautiful garden. Jeff/owner was very responsive and knowledgeable. Loved talking with him. Great person! Bedrooms separated by living room and kitchen. Very nice private layout. Definitely would stay here again! Thanks to Jeff!!
