TWO BEDROOM/BATH NATURE LODGE WITH POOL AND PRIVATE WATERFALL, NEAR BEACH

We had an excellent stay at Trevor's lodge. The place is great, in the middle of the forest, comfortable, clean, well-maintained. The views are just spectacular, the one from the pool in particular sticks to your memory long after you're back to the cold grim winter in Europe. Trevor has been very friendly and helpful. You have to go see Trevor's waterfall, it's totally worth it. The only piece of advice I can think of is to bring mosquito repellent with you. All in all, it's been a great experience, the island is wonderful, the people are friendly and nice, the food is very good and Trevor's place is probaly the best you'll find on the island. Once again, thanks for a lovely time!

We hadn't planned to stay here during our holiday, but some other accommodation we'd booked turned out to be not as good as we'd hoped so we managed to sort out a stay at Trevor's properties at very short notice. From being referred to him by one of his friends that we had stayed with, to exchanging a few emails, he had picked us up within a couple of hours! Thank you for coming to our rescue from disappointing holiday accommodation!

We didn't quite know what to expect from Trevor's place, rising up rough tracks in the hills above the beautiful coast, but when we arrived our jaws dropped - this place is paradise! The elevation gives you fantastic views of the sea over lush greenery and the rainforest surroundings feel exotic and are full of wildlife. It's the pretty, not scary, sort of wildlife. A hummingbird flitting in and out of your window whilst you're doing the washing up is an average occurrence, as is the cacophony of calls from the colourful parrots in the surrounding trees in the morning. I also met Mick the Stick Insect. The only unwelcome wildlife was the mosquitoes - I got eaten alive! I'd recommend wearing lots of repellent, burning coils, using the nets provided and spraying under the bed with insecticide.

We had the opportunity to stay in Rainbow and in the newly built Xanadu, since we required 4 nights stay at no notice. Xanadu is absolutely stunning; a wooden lodge with a contemporary and stylish feel, very airy and open with views from the big open windows in all directions. It has a very large and gorgeous outside decking area with infinity pool that makes you grin from ear to ear when you get up to it in the morning. Rainbow is an equally lovely property, with more of a shabby-chic and arty feel to it, more cosy than contemporary. The indoors is nice to spend the evening in.

It is a place to just relax and enjoy the surroundings, which we did for 4 days without going anywhere! Trevor had kindly taken us to the supermarket first so we wanted for nothing. The most energetic we got was visiting the lovely little waterfall. Parlatuvier looked like a nice little village to visit though, if you'd had a car or were up for a very stiff walk back up the hill.

Trevor was an absolutely lovely chap who really helped to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable and we had some good chats and a laugh with him. I hope we get to go back there one day and see him again.

I would not hesitate to recommend this wonderful place!

Eigentlich ist alles schon gesagt... Wir können nur bestätigen, was alle anderen vor uns schrieben!
Aber vielleicht einfach nur mal auf Deutsch:

Eine Woche im Paradies. Eine traumhaft charmante "Hütte" mit allem Komfort...Eine Umgebung, die seinesgleichen sucht - willkommen im Bilderbuch - sehr entspannte Menschen, ein großartiger Gastgeber, einfach unglaublich schöne Strände, angenehm wenig Tourismus..

Überbordende Natur, Ruhe zum Entspannen... (außer morgens, wenn die Vögel erwachen...;o) Kleiner Tipp von uns: morgens früh auf und abends früh ins Bett...auch wegen der Mücken!)
Es war für uns alles perfekt und wir kommen mit Sicherheit wieder, lieber Trevor...
