Comfortable cottage on the sea with great views
The host, Susan, was friendly and helpful. She met us on arrival and departure and checked in with us.
The cottage is located right on the seafront. The Calibishie shoreline is a pretty strip with houses, palms, and some sand. You can't swim because the water is too shallow up close, and too rough further out. It is great to sit on the terrace and enjoy the view out to Guadalupe (when the weather is clear) or along the coast to the red rock formations. We loved hiking up the farm roads through plantations above town. Shop is 50 meters down the road. There is street food and 2 decent restaurants in town, with 2-3 fresh dishes available each evening (don't rely on the menu; ask what there is).
The cottage was spacious, clean, and functional. There are two bedrooms, each for 2 people, so it is comfortable for 4 people. There is also a couch, and a futon on the loft. The loft is only partially finished and it gets warm up there. You could fit more than 4 people, but it would start getting crowded. The kitchen has the views on two directions (west and north) out on the bay; the other rooms don't have much view. The terrace is large, covered from the rain, with excellent views to the west, north, and east. The front porch offers a place to sit and watch the traffic and people from the village pass by, if you enjoy that. There is a picnic table right next to the water, if the terrace is not close enough for you. The kitchen is well equipped with stove, fridge, toaster, and microwave. Wifi was pretty good, for a location like this. The beds were comfortable enough and everything was clean (some sand, salt, etc. is always blowing in on the breeze). The bathroom was fine, with acceptable hot water. Temperatures inside were comfortable during our stay, both night and day.
Sites to visit nearby: rainforest trails; chocolate factory; plantation hikes; several beach scenes from Pirates of the Caribbean; village bars.
1. Some intermittent noise: There is an occasional loud truck or motorcycle that shatters the peace, but we did not find traffic noise to be a big problem. The worst was when the Labour Party political truck drives by at 1AM blasting their 'vote for Labour' songs at full volume. We had the luck to visit during campaign season. Note that this cottage is in a lively village, not some secluded location (although the village of Calibishie is fairly secluded from the rest of the world, as things go). The sound of the waves drowns out most others sounds from the village.
2. Wifi goes out sometimes.
3. If you use the microwave and toaster then you'll blow the circuit, which will also take out the internet. Fuse box is to the left of the front door.
4. We were warned that the water could go out if there is a strong rain. This is exactly what happened and there was no water for one night. We had just returned from a full day's hiking and were sweaty, muddy, and salty. Used rainwater to wash instead.
5. The sea nearby tends to be either too shallow or too rough for swimming. The shallow water extends out for about 200 meters, with some rocks and some debris (so you can wade out, but wear foot coverings because there can be some broken glass and other mystery obstacles). Then there is a reef and strong surf about 200 meters offshore. There are several beaches nearby (1 km, both east and west) but they also depend on sea conditions.
6. The kitchen and terrace have great views but the rest of the cottage is somewhat dark inside without much view. The wood finish is typical of a beach cottage.
7. Furniture is simple and functional. Nothing fancy. There is some plastic furniture, which makes sense considering the moist seafront conditions.
8. Calibishie is easily accessible from the airport, but there are no big towns nearby. This can be good and bad. Roads are winding and can be stressful to drive on. The remote location is also the attraction.

lovely place, summer house with sea view, lovely host, great recommendation for hiking trails with local guide Wendy
Great location, everything what we needed!
Terrace with sea view 😊
Wohnen direkt am Meer - mehr geht nicht. Die östereichische Gastgeberin ist super nett und ständig erreichbar, bei einem Stromausfall im ganzen Ort kam gleich eine Nachbarin und brachte uns Solar- und Kurbellampen. Auch bei Regen (den es öfter gibt) bleibt man trocken auf der Terrasse. Im Ort findet man alles nötige, er Ort ist sehr idyllisch. Zur Hauptsehenswürdigkeit der Insel (Rosseau-Valley) sind es aber schon 2 Stunden fahrt.
Da die Bucht eher nach Norden ausgerichtet ist und das Haus am südlichen Ende der Bucht, ist es auch nicht allzu windig auf der Terrasse.
Die Betten sind leider (für unseren Geschmack) sehr weich und die Kopfkissen leider auch sehr unbequem.
Sonst war alles perfekt.
