Dear Greg and Valerie,Thank you for an unforgettable stay at Château de Poivre in Loubière. Your kindness and generosity made us feel truly at home in your beautiful house, perched high in stunning nature. We will always remember the magical hikes, the bats greeting the dawn, and the sunrise accompanied by the bananaquits’ song. We will also always remember the many lovely walks up the hill to the house.Warmest regards,Christel and Jimmy

Such an amazing setting and beautiful chateau. Wonderful gardens and ocean and Mountain Views. Valerie is very helpful. Be careful driving around Dominica. It is much more challenging than driving in the US. The driveway to the house is incredibly steep and rough but we made it in a two wheel drive SUV, all of which was clearly communicated by the owner. Driving challenges keeps the island real and adds to the fun if sometimes scary adventure. Absolutely beautiful island.

Relaxing

Our stay was fantastic, we very much loved the peace and quiet. The drive up is a bit challenging but doable with a 4WD definitely worth the view as well as the tranquility of this place. We enjoyed sitting on the expansive veranda drinking coffee looking at the ocean and listening to the birds. The place was clean and had everything we needed. Dominica is a beautiful island, there is so much to explore and see. We will be back!

Hiking Dominica

I stayed three plus weeks to take advantage of the many hiking trails throughout the island. The house was most comfortable and a great place to return to at the end of each day's hike/trek. As the temperature remained in the mid-80's C throughout my stay, it often became humid in the afternoon's - especially with minimal breeze. Still, the veranda was a great place to enjoy an end of day cocktail after a hard day's hike.

Spectacular Vacation

This was our second time staying at this wonderful home in Dominica. It is close to everything (hikes, snorkeling, scuba diving, groceries, restaurants). The house is simply furnished but has everything you would need. The view from the porch is fantastic and it doesn't take long to relax. The host, Madeleine, was very helpful and responded quickly to any questions. We hope to come back again in the future. I can't think of any other place I would rather stay! Thank you Madeleine.

Idyllic

The access road is a small challenge but once you arrive at the property it’s well worth it - the high ceilings, the sodden floor, the expansive wrap around verandah, the spectacular view of the ocean, the birds, the brisk winds - a haven. Liz, the manager, is always accessible and would go way above expectations. A totally enjoyable and rejuvenating experience, even though we were visiting for work. A great place to come home to.

Secluded House

Truly as the name states, secluded house. Nature is everywhere from hummingbirds, to agouti, to bats, and lizards of many kinds. The walk up or down the hill takes between 15-20 minutes. There is a grocery store at the bottom of the hill and a small walk. Valarie was ever helpful.

Views are amazing!

Sitting at the porch with those amazing views and sunsets was amazing.You don’t see the neighbors and it’s quiet and secluded, except the bugs that really like the place.It’s A rustic place so don’t expect luxury but lots of space and everything we mixed ( except washer).The challenge though was the road , I’m glad that it was not the first place we stayed in Dominica so we were already got some experience but the fact that we didn’t go out the house in the evening or more than we needed was because the drive up to the house is very challenging and stressful which is not what you are looking for in a vacation, but we made it without any incidents and the south area is beautiful.

We are glad you enjoyed your stay and that our manager Valarie was amazing. You also wrote in the visitor book that you enjoyed the house, snorkelling, garden surroundings, exploring etc etc and that the hire car (RAV4) handled the road very nicely. Unfortunately, our washing machine did not survive the hurricane, but we find the laundry just down the road very efficient, plus we have a drying area at the house. We do mention in the property details four times that the road is steep and a 4WD or All-Wheel-Drive vehicle is recommended but we are sorry you found it a challenge. Most visitors get used to the road very quickly and treat it as part of the real Dominica experience! Relaxing on the veranda at the end of a busy day exploring or sightseeing, is one of the best bits of a holiday!

Secluded & Convenient

A rustic retreat high on a hillside. The Subaru we rented certainly got a workout climbing the hill! The veranda was a fantastic place to spend time. We watched hummingbirds at the shrubs, bullfinches at their nest, busy-body house wrens, and agoutis! There are 2 huge carambola trees in the yard, the fresh starfruit were amazing. Well placed to get to Roseau for shopping, dining, and diving (Ft Young). Champagne Beach is the closest and that was also an experience! We struggled a bit with the bugs and not having fans on still nights.

Wonderful house with a great view

We spent a week in this lovely house. After our daily adventures hiking, snorkeling and driving:), we looked forward to relaxing on the veranda soaking in the view and the peaceful beauty. The house is spacious, clean, very pleasant inside with gorgeous grounds. Madeleine was lovely and very helpful, as her family has such a long history with the island and she was a valued source of information and recommendations. What other reviewers say about the “road” up to the property is real - it is doable with 4wd, but takes some getting used to. As long as you are comfortable negotiating a challenging road/driveway, do not hesitate to book - we would return in a heartbeat.

Wonderful and Relaxing

This is our third time staying at this property. We continue to return because it is so relaxing. The road to the house definitely takes some getting used to and you will need a four wheel drive vehicle. The location is close to Roseau and other areas that guests might like to visit. The view of Roseau and the Caribbean Sea is amazing. The sounds of nature from the porch are incredibly soothing. Valarie, the host manager, is very responsive and helpful with any needs or advice. We were sad to leave after almost five weeks. Hope to be back again in the future. Please don't hesitate to book this as a vacation spot.

Beautiful house with beautiful view

The house and grounds were spectacular. Everything we could need was provided including kitchen utensils, puzzles and beach towels. The view from the spacious terrace was wonderful and there were rainbows almost every day. We ate all meals out on the terrace to the sounds of bird songs. The only drawback was the difficult road in. Very rutted, narrow with deep rain channels on both sides. But with a 4WD vehicle we made it and even became good at negotiating it. Thank you

This place was fabulous!

My husband and I, recently retired, stayed here for two months (Jan/Feb 2022). We had such a relaxing time. It's the type of house where you feel like you are living outside with all of the comforts of living inside. The yard is private and spacious with star fruit trees and other ornamentals. Our host, Liz, helped us quickly with any issue that came up and gave us great advice on places to shop, hike, and scuba dive. The location is perfect for getting to Roseau or Soufriere and many of the hiking areas on the west coast. The drive up to the house is challenging but we got used to it pretty quickly. You definitely need a 4W drive vehicle. We were sad to leave this absolutely gorgeous island and this house. Hope to come back next year!

This is the 5th time we've stayed here and it doesn't disappoint us. The property manager (Valarie) is terrific and kept us updated on the timing of some road repairs and a brief power outage that we incurred during our first week. The house has everything you might need for cooking (you will need to bring or purchase locally) your own food spice. The hot water has always been reliable during the month of January when we stayed. The internet is exceptionally good which was helpful for us as my husband works remotely part time. There are some small friendly lizards that wander about but they have never been a problem for us and stay on the walls of the veranda or around the large windows. There is always a nice breeze through the house. There is a fan for night time sleeping use, which we greatly appreciated, as the humidity is high and the temps don't cool off a great deal at night. The road is a challenge which can be managed with a good 4W drive vehicle. The location of the house is good for snorkeling/scuba diving in Soufriere and also for going to Roseau for groceries, etc. We always have a great time here. Don't hesitate to book a vacation at this house.

Secluded yet convenient

The property has wonderful views of the ocean, mountainside, and Roseau. It is conveniently located 10-15 minutes from Roseau, but extremely secluded and private being up a small mountain road. The property manager, Valerie, is very attentive and communicates effectively. The home is spacious and the accomodations are suitable, however there is no air conditioning. This was not an issue for me, but my wife was uncomfortable when the breeze died down. My one criticism is that the home should be outfitted with ceiling fans in all rooms. While the home is designed for maximum air flow, it is hard to understand why a ceiling fan was not installed in the main living area/kitchen. We were provided with only one oscillating fan. Overall, we greatly enjoyed our stay and I rate it as 4 out of 5 stars.
