It’s unfortunate that the Galley Bay Resort that is located just beneath the Galley Bay Cottages is completely off limits and therefore dining is finding local eateries in the area that are not consistent with price, sanitation and food handling. You can access the beach just a walk down the path and it’s gated around the resort, but heaven forbid you touch any chairs! You will be scolded by security who monitors the beach line from the resort. The cabs are limited to 2-3 people who are often already booked to take people around the island so make sure you bring running shoes cause you’ll likely be walking your way around unless you wish to wait for a long while for someone to come to you. The overall cottage was nice, the cleaner came a day before I was leaving so I didn’t get fresh towels all week, and she stole my cigarettes. I had to pay over $100 upon arriving for the cleaning lady. I didn’t make a fuss about it, I just accepted it as it was. I will return to the island but will be making other arrangements that are closer to amenities rather than being placed at one end of the island away from everything. Overall experience from 1-10 was 4.

There was a beautiful view, and very peaceful and quiet . I didn’t like the steep climb up to it every day, but it was worth the view when you got there.

This property is not for someone seeking a luxury resort where you get waited on all the time. If you want a beautiful little shabby-chic cottage all to yourself, inside a quiet jungle filled with flowers and nosy birds, within a five minute walk to a gorgeous beach, where you cook for yourself or bring home delicious patties and local produce to cook, and where owner Marco attends to your every need, if you have any -- look no further. My family and I had a fabulous time and, if you have read this far, you probably will too. Some advice: it is best to rent a car and pick up some groceries on the way in, although Marco stocks the place with essentials like towels, paper, coffee, milk, etc. Also, some of the hills around the cottages are steep, and not for those with bad knees or balance issues. Otherwise, you will fall in love with the place. Thank you, Marco!

We certainly cannot recommend this place. Not sure why the good/decent reviews. Cottage is not kept properly with few if anything working right -- toilet that moves, stovetop doesn't light without match, just wooden windows that doesn't open/close properly. Frog, biting insects (even with coils everywhere), animals noises SO VERY LOUD all night long that it's impossible to sleep with fan, air conditioner, and white noise machine. We had to wear ear plugs AND headset to sleep every night. Can't wait to leave this place. Never again. Sorry! Only good comment is that it's near the beach. We love Galley Bay beach.

The property is just gorgeous with amazing views. I stayed in the studio cabin. It was clean and nice. I had all kind of birds visit everyday on the porch. There is WIFI but no TV. Bring your laptop to watch TV. My suggestion to the owner is to get a couple of beach chairs for the cabin. The beach is right there but no chairs are provided

To start Marco was great, he met us at the airport. Then on the way to the property, he showed us the local market. Super helpful & friendly. Property is a little rustic but quaint. Did not want to stay at a resort. At first was a little taken back but warm up to the treehouse after the first night. Would suggest renting a car but you’ll need to be prepared for the locals roads. Only thing we had an issue with was the water pressure but it’s because the island uses cisterns to collect their water, so we learned to deal with it. All in all, we had a fantastic stay. Highly suggest going to Barbuda & checking out their beaches.

The Calabash Cottage was perfect for our party of three. It provided privacy while maintaining a sense of community. The garden views were everything we had hoped they'd be. The island sounds were pleasant as was the open-air concept of the cottage. The walk to the beach was literally 3 mins. The properties are perched hillside, which is a bit steep. No biggie. The only drawback is the property refuse location at the base of the hill. Marco was a gracious host and Omar was extremely attentive to our needs. Omar gave us a private tour of the Island along with stops at historical sites. We were all grateful to have met him.

Spacious beach cottage, nestled amongst lush trees and foliage with wrap around deck within a stones throw and walk to Galley Bay Beach. While not a shiny new penny, it has everything you need for a great stay. Communication is excellent with host. Would definitely stay here again!

The property was quite charming and semi-quirky. The view is beautiful! There is an evident termite problem in a few areas and the electricity went out at weird times in no apparent pattern for no apparent reason, but it didn't hamper our enjoyment of the cottage. The stove and oven had to be lit with the provided matches which was a surprise to us, but once lit, worked perfectly. I reached out to the property manager 2 times before our stay and he never replied to me. When my husband reached out to him, he replied. That was very disconcerting. Once we met him at the airport, he was very helpful. We had a rental car and we followed him to a grocery store and to the cottage. He stayed with us in the grocery store and helped us figure out the lay of the land. The 2 minute walk to the beach was easy and the beach is fabulous. I'd recommend the place if you're not looking for fancy. It's casual and quiet and perfect for 2.

Love how tucked away it is! Such tranquility within nature and so quite and peaceful. Marco is always so helpful and such a great manager, had to return for another visit and can't wait to go back 😀. Stayed in the Treehouse a couple years ago and this time in Calabash, would definitely love to go back and stay in the other cottages. A car is necessary if you like to explore and beach access is a walk away. Again, Marco is very helpful helping with info about getting around and places to visit and eat.

This place has an amazing view, quiet, quaint, and the responsiveness to any needs was superb. Definitely recommend this place if you want to be secluded and don’t mind a short walk to a nearby beautiful beach and also a pristine spot to watch the sunset and oversea much of the Island!
