My husband and I spent 5 wonderful days at Veranda View Guest House. Set in an absolutely beautiful and idyllic spot right on the water, it is an extremely welcoming and friendly establishment. The owner Hermien is a very warm and special person and the other staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. Our room on the second... More

The setting on the small bay sheltered by an offshore reef gives this place a very nice location. This is a good base for venturing out into Calibishie. Visiting Calibishie, and especially partying over the weekend, was an unforgettable experience. Staying at this guesthouse, however, left me wishing I could forget some other aspects of our trip. The lady who... More

Thank you for your concern towards the sanitation situation in Calibishie. Unfortunately the 2 days that you stayed with us the village was most of the time without water, which is beyond my control. For the years we have been here the village has never been without water for such an extended period of time To my knowledge we tried... More

My husband and I spent 5 nights at the Veranda View and loved it. The room upstairs was simple yet lovely. We so enjoyed the sea breeze which was a constant blowing through all of the open windows. We loved all of the outdoor seating available and spent much more of our time there on the veranda than we did... More

This is a real find...we are a family of five, and took both of the rooms on the second floor. We were the only guests. The second floor is a large open terrace covered by a roof, with a living room, dining room table, and small kitchen with a little stove and a fridge. Beyond the covered area there is... More

Our stay at Veranda View was a perfect Caribbean experience: Casual, charming and colorful room. Helpful, friendly and interesting hostess, Hermien. Clean, beautiful and picturesque beach. No security issues at all. Will recommend to my friends with confidence.

Two spacious rooms overlooking the sea, with a large terrace, a very good place in the north of the island. The guest house is on the beach but at this point you can not swim. Nevertheless a few minutes drive away is Batibou Bay the most beautiful beach of the island ! You need a 4x4 to get there. Free... More

I'll start with the good points: the location is amazing (right on the coast in the heart of Calibishie), and the huge veranda offers beautiful sea views. I loved the open-air porch/restaurant, and the owner made us a delicious dinner of fish, rice, salad, bread, and various sides. There are two rooms here, which are not particularly luxurious but cute... More

We wanted to split our trip between the north and the south parts of the island. We picked Calibishie because it sounded like a nice spot..... maybe to the locals. Anyway, the Veranda view is just like it's name, the view is the best part. There are only 2 rooms, one with 2 beds and one with 1 bed. We... More
