My son and I just recently returned from a week-long at St. Joseph's and had a wonderful time. The accommodations were very comfortable and clean. Once you entered through the gate you felt entirely secure and relaxed. The St. Joseph's Home is just like family and I can't wait to go back again. Our church group of 21 youth and... More

This is a home for children and youth that doubles as a guesthouse, to help pay the bills for the children's care. The home was destroyed in the 2010 earthquake but has been rebuilt and is better than ever. It's an exceptional experience not only because of the comfort, value, and beauty of the home, but because guests have the... More

Staying at the newly-reconstructed St. Joseph's Home for Boys was a lovely experience! Visitors are warmly welcomed by all members of the vibrant community, and the overall atmosphere is friendly, comfortable, genuine, and safe. St. Joseph's is strikingly beautiful space, with paintings, Haitian metal artwork, and lush vegetation. Rooms are spacious, clean, and well-lit, with reliable wifi service; meals are... More

If you're looking for clean, safe accomodations with the option of delicious meals--all at a fraction of the price charged by big hotels--look no further than St. Joseph's Home. When the home's young adult residents aren't in school, they are often available for conversation with guests. You might get lucky and be invited to sit in on an art or... More

Please stay at St. Joseph's Home and Guest House on your next trip to Haiti. It is such a happy and welcoming place and has the best food in all of Haiti! It is a special place because of the hospitality and love showered on all guests by Michael, Bill, Walnes and the rest of the St. Joseph's family who... More

I've stayed at St. Joseph's Home on four different occasions with my two daughters and wife, as well as mission groups. The hospitality is very friendly, the food carefully prepared and the hosts provide a great way to get to know more about Haiti from their experience. If you are in Port-au-Prince you should definitely visit here.

And I continue to visit St. Joseph's when I am in Haiti. It continues to be the same, warm atmosphere it has always been. You will find the new building to be spectacular. The old building that St. Joseph's lost in the quake was charming, but this new one is a sight to behold. What never changes is the atmosphere... More

As a seasoned traveler who has stayed at hotels in NA, Europe, and Asia, St. Joseph's really stands out for food, safety, cleanliness, hospitality, price, and as a memorable experience. Not to be missed. Support the local Haitian economy and a great grassroots mission.

Three friends and I stayed at St. Joseph's in January and attended the 27th anniversary celebration of the founding of the home. This was the first time they had guests in their new home. (The old home was destroyed in the earthquake.) Although the scaffolding was up when we arrived and workers were busy finishing up, the hospitality was the... More

I want to correct the horrible allegation by "rshagen" that physical and sexual abuse of the boys at St. Joseph's has been going for decades..." "rshagen" puts out the name of Michael Guilland as the perpetrator. If you Google this name you'll find that this person, alternately spelled Gililand, is not in any way connected to St. Joseph's. It must... More
