Simply Intimate, Simply Unique, Simply Caribbean

    

Just 1 mile from Melville Hall Airport, this is where your Dominican adventure begins
as you meander through several banana plantations to arrive at the dramatic floral entrance of Coffeeriver Cottages. Through the gates, you are at your tranquil retreat...
your home away from home...
Once you are here you may not want to leave.

 Our propery is 5 acres of secluded floral splendor offering a bounty of
fresh luscious fruit - all for your pleasure when in season.
After living in Dominica for 15 years building our dream, we are thrilled to be able to offer a private escape in the Guest Cottages, 2 Double Occupancy Loft bedrooms, no doors,
are accessed by a wooden walkway.[see: Photo Gallery]
First floor: 1 Double Occupancy / 2 Singles Bed's / Downstairs: 1 Bedsette[Futon].
The Guest Cottages, built by my husband Stephen, down by the rivers edge.

 We have consciously chosen to utilize alternative energy to power our needs and those of our guests - our electricity is generated by a Micro Hydro plant, hot water is provided by Solar collectors, softening our carbon footprint.

Guests are encouraged to 'make themselves at home', enjoy this unique tropical environment.
Dining is outside on the veranda, with open access to the kitchen and gardens alike. 
In the well equipped kitchen our guests will be catering to their own tastes,
with all the tropical treasures from the sea, and what the market can offer
as well as from our own garden, when the fruit and vegetables are in season.
Delicious local Dominican food can be prepared on the property upon request,
this will incurr an additional charge if requested.
