Beth and Mike mailed me some dog collars for the local cause and had a special one made for our hotel dog Sarafina:)


In case it's to small to read, this is what Fina's Thank you card said:
Thanks Beth & Mike (signed by her paw)
Pink is my favorite color!

Her new collar is a fusia pink, I would say and it does look fabulous on her & it has her name and a number...in case she has a late night and needs a ride home:)

Françoise et Jean Rénier will soon ne leaving life in Guadalupe for the past 7 years to go back home to France and wanted to make sure they didn't miss any of the Caribbean islands while they are here.... I hope they miss the Caribbean once they go home and come back for a visit!:)

Françoise is a very chic woman with a love of hats.....I too love hats, I ordered one from the iternet that didn't fit because my head is too big:) Once I saw Francoise in her hat, I knew she was meant to have my hat...doesn't she looks fabulous!

Françoise est une femme très chic avec un amour des chapeaux ..... Je t'aime aussi des chapeaux, j'ai commandé un de l'iternet qui ne cadrait pas parce que ma tête est trop grosse :) Une fois que j'ai vu Françoise dans son chapeau, je savais elle était destinée à avoir mon chapeau ... n'est-elle pas l'air fabuleux!

Lena & Ingo our German friends...world traveler's:)

Ingo chilling in the hammock ( Cabana 5 for those who want to book it:)

                             Great photo,  I think they used the 'instagram' app? That's Pagua Bay, they stayed  with us in April and that's when we just start to get our sandy beach back.

Lena... I love this picture:) Since we are on the East side of the island, 
it's the sunrises that we get to enjoy!

Mark & Virginia, all I can say is their laughter and spirit lit up Pagua Bay! Both retired physicians, looking for a little adventure; we are trying to get them hooked up with Ross to teach part time, so we can see them more often:)

Virginia & Mark:)

Mark got a great shot of this storm over the Ocean and the Rainbow that followed, beautiful...that's looking out at Pagua Bay!~


Introducing....Mr. Werner Hart Mrs. Bettina Duense:) They got married at a waterfall and shared their honeymoon with us!

Werner was an excellent photographer and shared a ton of his photo's which I will also add to our web site. But my favorite are of the newlywed's! Not a bad place for a honeymoon:)






Mike & Amy from Austria had a fabulous time, they were always on the move and are already planning another visit! Can't wait to have you back:)

Mike & Amy ~ Self portrait...cute!

Beautiful shot in Scott's Head

Titou Gorge one of our favorite attractions


Mike is now our resident stunt guests! Here is jumping off a rock into Chadiere Pool, very fun.

Steve & Sylvie our fabulous guests and our future hosts from Martinique:)

It took me a while to get my pictures to upload properly...it's great to see your smiling faces, hopefully we'll see you again this summer on one island or another!
au revoir pour l'instant:)

Linc & Cathryn came over for a quick get-away to get a little pampering and service, since that's what they provide to their guests.....the life of working on yachts, to be young again!

Hey....who's supposed to be working? That's all my staff? More importantly......who won?
I know the answer to that, apparently Linc was kicking everyone's butt. Lisa & gabby weren't to happy about that:)
We get a lot of creative & artsy guests here, this was the result of breakfast:) Not bad?


Ernie & Millie.....we miss you:)

Look at this picture I found of you on Facebook, it was posted by Romance Cafe - Mero Beach, 
I thought it was cute so I downloaded it:)

Mike & Beth from Massachusetts were loving Dominica, they were gone by dawn and back at dusk....I think they're addicted, we haven't seen the last of them!

Mike & Beth at Victoria Falls

Beth also happens to be a vet and is gratefully sending us extra supplies to assist with the care of the animals on the island! Thanks a million:)

Susan & Gary from Sunny Santa Barbara, came to the caribbean & then went to the NE to enjoy a blizzard...sounds good:)

Susan & Gary looking adorable! They are the perfect guests, they make it so easy. They only sent me one picture, so you don't get the gist for their adventures, but they always had an itinerary; Susan was in charge of the outings and Gary was always good for whatever the day brought.


Zhanna & Kostya took the long journey from Moscow to come to Dominica and it was a perfect fit:)


They did a yoga class with my friend Tiffany who is a yoga instructor & Tiffany shot this picture during their session and they look amazing!


Zhanna & Kostya said they would help us around Moscow.........we're going to take them up on that:)

The Power Couple:) Julie & Dave

Dave & Julie's toes cruising down Pagua Bay......this was there only down day I think, they were always on the move!

SPA Day?...Close, a nice sulphur mud mask on their hike to the Boiling Lake.

I love this picture!

They had so many good shots, this one is of Scott's Head on the caribbean side.

Doing the trail at Syndicate where we have our indigenous Parrots and amazing fauna & flora - Thanks for the great photo's Julie & dave! 

Charlotte & Darrin from New Orleans....we've been craving Étouffée ever since:)

Darrin & Charlotte at dinner at Pagua Bay.... one night they picked put there own lobster:)

These guys went everywhere, there's not a bad view here!
And, we do have some great beaches, even though we are know for our rivers & waterfalls. 

The Warren Family...always up for an adventure! Great having you stay with us! I hope you'll come back again:)

I love this picture Katie! Very serene.....before she hits the books again in Berkley! Watch out world, this is a future lawyer of America!
Christie & Roger...super cute! I think this is NY's Eve, did anyone make it past midnight? Not me:)




Katie & her Dad.....not sure if it's before or after the days adventures, it looks like a Pina Colada in hand?!
A day of  Zip-Lining on the Layou River.

Chantaki & Jean-Philippe..marathon runners extraordinary!


We have so many amazing guests stay with us that it shouldn't be a surprise that when these two said they run marathons....little did I know that Chantaki wrote a book about all of the marathons they run  around the world called: 

42.195 MILLIONS OF LITTLE STEPS

She hasn't done a marathon in Colorado yet, so we're going to meet up there! Here is a link to her web site: http://chantaki.wordpress.com/
Jean-Philippe enjoying breakfast:)
Chantaki modeling those strong legs:) BTW, we have grass now!

They actually stayed with us in January, but just recently sent me this picture of a wine named after Dominica (not really, but would I be in heaven if we produced good wine here!) Thanks for thinking of us, we were there sharing  glass with you in spirit!
jusqu'à la prochaine fois Jean-Phillippe & Chantal:)

The Henry Family:) Came over from Guadalupe for a visit!

A sad day...they were leaving us to go back home!

This is a nice one, I think it's Fresh Water Lake or Boeri Boeri, I'll have to ask:)

This is awesome..why didn't I think of doing this?! Gautier's parents taking a walk to relax by the river in their robes!

Some of the local ladies at the market selling their goods in Portsmouth.
