Further details for this vacation villa rental in Montserrat

Welcome to Inis Ealu: Welcome to our home, Inis Éalú, the Irish Gaelic (pronounced “Inish Ayloo”) for Island Escape. We chose this name to reflect the Irish heritage of Montserrat, and to describe our favorite place in the world to go to escape our frantic lives. Everything else about our home is all about Caribbean living, from the blue steel roof that matches the brilliant sea stretching out before you, to the relaxed, casual, and open feel of the home.

Private and Beautiful: The view as you approach the house is spectacular! Located at the end of Sweet Lime Lane, Olveston, in the safe zone of Montserrat, it is the only house at the end of a cul-de-sac on a ridge reaching across lush national forest to the blue sea beyond. Our home is in a quiet but friendly neighborhood, where you will enjoy privacy and peace.

The views continue as you enter the front door - the house was designed to open the living areas to the outdoors as much as practical and capture the views and cooling tradewinds from every room. Sliding doors disappear into the walls to allow free passage from every room to the outside for both you and the breeze.

Home away from home: We have furnished our home in Montserrat to be as comfortable and complete as our home in Florida so that we enjoy all the comforts of home at either place. Careful thought went into providing every convenience that we have come to expect. You will find a washer and dryer, iron and ironing board, hair dryers and makeup mirrors, and plentiful linens and kitchen implements, as well as a large gas grill. There are pool toys, cards, and a few games for those so inclined, and a collection of DVDs, books, and CDs.

What you will probably appreciate most about our home, however, are the views, the pool, the proximity to beaches, and the relaxing atmosphere that we hope you find renews and recharges you as it does us when we are in our Monserrat home.

incredibly beautiful villa in an amazing place

Review Submitted: November 24, 2011 Date of Stay: November 2011
Inis Ealu is an incredibly beautiful villa in an amazing place.
The attention to fine detail was clearly visible inside and
outside as well. The rooms are large and bright with well placed
ceiling fans that were seldom needed. The location on the top
of the ridge kept it cool, breezy, and very comfortable.
The kitchen is equipped with everything a good cook might need.
The villa is very private and blessedly quiet, The views of the
mountains and the sea were ever changing, especially the vivid
colorful sunsets that were tinted by the volcanic ash.
The exculsion zone had opened the day before our arrival,
so it is now possible to drive into the villages south of
the Bellham Valley. The sights to be seen there are almost
impossible to describe. In some ways it looked like the end
of the world as these areas have endured the brunt of the eruptions.
The plant life is glorious, the guavas and jamun fruits are abundant and
delicious and can be found throughout Cork Hill and the village of Weekes.
With the volcanic activity low and a large part of the exclusion
zone open to daytime entry, you can see incredible views of the destruction
of Plymouth from the safety of nearby Richmond Hill.
These are sights not to be missed, Plymouth really is a modern day Pompeii.
And after a day of exploration, the cool refreshing infinity pool awaits
back at the villa. There's no better way to end the day than with a rum punch
on the verandah watching the sky glowing pink and purple with the
mysterious Redonda island off in the distance.

One word of caution...there is a spring at Runaway Gut.
Legend has it, if you drink from the spring you'll come back to Montserrat:

"if you drink the waters from this burn, to Montserrat you will return."

I sipped from the spring in 2008....
then returned in 2010, and now again in 2011, so be warned!

Fantastic Villa

Review Submitted: June 15, 2010 Date of Stay: June 2010
A truly one-of-a-kind-place, our stay at Inis Ealu was the perfect backdrop to a wonderful week in Montserrat. The house was clean, comfortable (even with no A/C!!), and more than adequate for two couples. Whether relaxing by the pool, cooking a meal or just soaking in the view of Nevis and Redonda this villa will not disappoint.

The villa is located near some great restaurants, as well as fantastic beaches and everything else is a relatively easy drive away. Its location also offers all the privacy you will need, as we never were disturbed by another person (roosters notwithstanding!).
Montserrat is a wonderful destination for those seeking a true Caribbean getaway.

Those seeking the resort and/or casino vacation need not apply! The brightest spot of our entire trip was how friendly and sincere everyone we met was. You always hear how friendly the locals are, etc., etc., when traveling, but I can assure you that Montserrat is the definition of friendly. A fantastic Caribbean Experience, all made better by staying at Inis Ealu.

Our Personal Recommendations (when not at Inis Ealu):

Beaches: Bunkum Bay, Rendevous (worth the kayak rental!), Lime Kiln, Little Bay

Restaurants: Olveston House (best on the island), Pont’s Beach View (great owner, great food and the best atmosphere), The Attic (can’t beat the Fish lunch), Gourmet Gardens (best Schnitzel in the Caribbean!!), 4B’s (best pizza!), Royal Palm (best location, most expensive!)

Rental Car: Get one!

Must have: Rooster’s Hot Sauce

Oh, and there is a volcano that is pretty cool to see as well!

Thanks Jace and Sheri for sharing!!

a perfect piece of paradise

Review Submitted: May 14, 2010 Date of Stay: April 2010
On our third visit to Montserrat we chose to stay at inis ealu. This is our first stay at inis ealu and let me tell you it is absolutely fantastic. The size of the villa is perfect, the pool is perfect...it's all perfect. Tucked away on a cul-de-sac just a hop skip and a jump away from a phenomenal beach and a few restaurants....even a grocery store...all within a short walk. If you want a relaxing vacation and a place to call home.....in a location that is not bustling with tourists....where you mostly hear only birds and tree frogs....this just may be the place for you. Kick back and enjoy.....we did.

Truly Amazing

Review Submitted: March 1, 2010 Date of Stay: February 2010
My wife, 13-year old daughter and I stayed at Inis Ealu in February and had an absolutely incredible stay. Inis Ealu is a fantastic villa with views that just don't get any better. The villa was very well-equipped, clean and super comfortable. Although we could have stayed all seven days at the villa, we did journey out and never had a shortage of things to do. The volcano was quite active the week before, so we enjoyed some amazing opportunities to witness, first hand, one of the most powerful wonders of nature. Lime Kiln Beach is a very short drive away and was never a disappointment. It seemed to change every time we went. The black sand beaches were awesome as was the fact that we were almost always the only ones there.

The locals are great people and, given the opportunity, love to visit about their island and all there is to offer. Food is plentiful. The hard part was deciding whether to eat at one of the great local restaurants (Olveston House and Ziggy's are a must) or stay in, cook dinner and eat on the veranda.

Oh, and finally....the pool. Ah yes, the pool and the view from it made our stay absolutely perfect.

We wil definitely visit Montserrat again. Hopefully Inis Ealu will be available when we do.

Thank you Jace and Sheri!

Perfection

Review Submitted: February 26, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
The Enis Ealu is the perfect escape. From a lovely view of the ocean to the beautiful trees, you couldn't ask for a better location. The house is so perfectly appointed that you will wish your own home had such wonderful and considerate ammenities. Their attention to detail is superb making a stay there heavenly. The house is equiped with anything you might want. The beds are perfect as the ocean lulls you to sleep. The plentiful ceiling fans insures that the temperature is always perfect. The walls open up to the outside so that even on the couch you may see the beautiful sea and feel as though you are part of nature. The pool is absolute perfection. Standing in the pool watching the sunset has to be one of those unforgetable experiences. We looked at several villas and must say that Enis Ealu is by far the best place to stay while in Monserrat. Plus the owners, Jace and Shari make you feel like family. I can't imagine a better villa or a better all around experience. Thank you! We will be back!
