One of the five Sea Cliff solar-powered eco-cottages, this 1-bedroom retreat has a Small Batch Gin Distillery on site, for complimentary gin tastings & tours of the 'Gin Botanicals Trail' in its 2 acres of tropical gardens. The eco-cottage has an ancient mango tree beside it which gives shade to the private outdoor dining table & grill. Inside, with a wooden cathedral ceiling, the cottage is airy and light-filled, leading onto a covered balcony. Wifi is provided. Set in two acres of tropical gardens, with an abundance of fruit trees, flowers and hummingbirds, it's just a 5 minute walk down a trail to the natural & wild black sand beach below, where one of Dominica's 365 pristine rivers meets the sea. After a swim in the ocean, a dip in the crystal-clear river water is the perfect way to rinse off the salt! Sea Cliff Eco-cottages are solar-powered & we do our part to lessen our impact on the natural environment. We compost all natural waste & consume less electricity by using ceiling fans instead of air conditioning & stove top kettles & coffee pots, instead of the electric versions. Our mountain-source tap water is drinkable, removing the need to use plastic water bottles. We also make sure that our presence on Dominica positively impacts and invests in the local community. There are many beaches just short drives away from the cottages, including Dominica's most picturesque, Batibou, and the beach featured in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. The famous, otherworldly 'Red Rocks' are just 5 minute drive, and the natural swimmable pool of Chaudiere a 15 min drive. The cottage is a 5 min walk to a handful of great restaurants, and a 20 minute walk to the charming fishing village of Calibishie with its pretty, colorful houses on the beachfront, more restaurants, 2 grocery stores, an ATM, gas station and friendly local community. There is a futon/sofa bed in the living room to accommodate a third guest. You don't need a car to stay at the cottage: there are restaurants & beaches 5 mins walk away, and the village of Calibishie with all its amenities is a 20 minute walk away. We can also recommend local guides who give tours & offer taxi rides. But if you'd like to explore further afield, then a rental car is recommended, and a 4x4 is needed to access the beautiful Batibou beach.
