About this property

Romantic Cottage in Tropical garden, Falmouth Harbour

Lush Tropical Setting

COVID-10 Clearance Certification by Antigua & Barbuda Tourism

Bamboo Cottage is for nature lovers, set in a lush garden within a five minute walk to the sea. The cottage is nestled among palms and clusters of tall bamboo. Adding to the tranquillity, as the sway and rustle of these trees make music in the Caribbean breeze.

The Cottage is on two levels, the large verandah entrance leads into the open plan kitchen and living area which is well stocked, an island wth a gas range, a convection oven and microwave for cooking. Also an additional shower is located on the verandah for
your return from the beach or the pool. A spiral staircase goes up to the bedroom with an 'open plan bathroom' . Also another verandah off the bedroom which looks thru the bamboo out to sea
and the yachts in Falmouth Harbour.

Falmouth Harbour is the centre of the yachting industry in Antigua & Barbuda. This is on the southwestern side of the island and is the home of the internationally famous Classic Regatta followed by Antigua Sailing Week. Also a five minute drive to the beautiful Pidgeon Beach, Shirley Heights Lookout (Antigua's National Park) and Historic Nelson's Dockyard.

Bamboo House apartment #262413 is also available. Please see listing for details.

Bamboo Garden: The owner lives on the upper floor of Bamboo House, which is on the other side of the property from the cottage, However the property has been cleverly designed to give everyone their own access and privacy, while having the security of knowing there is someone around should you need any assistance.

The property has a very romantic and relaxed feeling and an ideal place to just sit back and enjoy, also a good base from which to do your exploring of the island.

Keywords: Garden, lush, warm, cozy, romantic, comfortable, countryside, peaceful, tropical, home, quiet, tranquil, cottage.

Bamboo cottage

Simply awesome, quiet, surrounded by birds, turtles, lizards and of course the mosquitoes (come prepared). The pool was great also, our host was very helpful and friendly. It was great all around. Coming back to English Harbor after 25+ years, I must say English Harbor still the best place to be on the island. I didn’t want to leave and I’ll come back and would recommend “Bamboo cottage” to friends and family. Thanks you Christophe

Fabulous Falmouth

Perfect place for us to spend 10 nights. Beautiful tropical garden with a lovely secluded pool area. You could just about manage without a car if you wanted to, but definitely better to have one. We spent our days exploring the coastal hikes, discovering the many hidden away beaches and remote coves, or having a more relaxed time spent around the pool or visiting the less remote beaches with restaurants and other facilities. For the evenings, there is a popular bar / restaurant called Cloggy's in the local marina, only 10 min walk away, or short drive to the vibrant Falmouth Harbour / Nelson's Dockyard area for bars, restaurants and clubs.Our host Joanne was lovely and always available if you needed any help.

Beautiful Property and Amazing Hospitality!

My wife and I had a wonderful time in Antigua, especially at Bamboo Cottage. For those travelers who aren't into "touristy" resorts and like to be more independent, this is the perfect spot. Joanne's hospitality was above and beyond, and we felt at home during our one week stay. Not only did she provide us daily directions around the island, but had excellent recommendations for dining and activities. If we ever have the good fortune of coming back, we would definitely stay here...thanks again Joanne!

Perfect Getaway! Will be back...

Bamboo Cottage, Antigua (Falmouth Harbour), and Joanne's hospitality surpassed all expectations and was one our best vacations ever! The cottage is very private, clean, fully stocked, and set in a beautiful garden. We loved evenings in the hammock on the deck and early morning swims. There is a nice beach about 5 minutes away but the highlight of our trip was the beach at Rendezvous Bay. It is only accessible by 4x4, but we had the entire bay to ourselves for most of the days. There is amazing hiking along the coast a short drive from the cottage and great waterfront seafood restaurants (Sunra was our fav). I also recommend a private sailing charter - Joanne has lots of great recommendations.

Tropical paradise

It is difficult not to repeat the sentiments of previous reviews. We had a wonderful 10 days at Bamboo cottage. As soon as you open the gates you are in your own secluded bit of paradise. This was our first time visiting the Caribbean and we felt fortunate to have stayed in this ideal location. Joanne is so helpful and a fantastic host. The information she share allowed us to fully appreciate the island in the time we had. As other people have mentioned, a car is a must and preferably a 4x4 to experience the whole island. Thank you Joanne for sharing your home with us.

Wonderful Find

We had the most relaxing stay with Joanne being the perfect host, Always on hand for advice and help. The house is typically Caribbean and the garden is just gorgeous with the cottage hidden away for privacy. We loved Joanne’s menagerie of tortoises, little dog and friendly cat, and enjoyed spending hours watching the bananaquits, bullfinches and hummingbirds gather at the feeder on the verandah. The house is ideally placed for the harbour and Nelson’s Dockyard, with lots of lovely places to eat and drink and watch the sunset. St. John’s is about half an hour away on somewhat dodgy roads, Recommend an SUV as the road to the house is somewhat pot holed and rocky. Would highly recommend. We hope to return.

Excellent choice for a relaxing Caribbean vacation

It was our first trip to Antigua. We very much enjoyed the island. The people are friendly, the beaches are beautiful and Uncrowded, the scenery is lovely. our stay at Bamboo cottage could not have been better. The wide porch is perfect for breakfast while watching the hummingbirds at the feeder. The kitchen has everything you need and there is a gas grill if you are so inclined. The bed was very comfortable and the cottage is charming. The garden surrounding is lush and beautiful and although the pool is shared, we were the only ones to use it during our stay. The owner Joanne was extremely helpful and friendly. You are very close to English harbor with plenty of restaurants. Our linens and towels were changed halfway into our one week stay which is really over and above and very much appreciated. Highly recommend. You can’t go wrong staying here.

Great tropical paradise

Thank you Joanne. You were a marvelous host along with Max and Rosie. We really enjoyed our 2 week stay at your cottage. It was one of the nicest vacations we've experienced. Your cottage really is a "home away from home". It certainly is much nicer than resort holidaying. We appreciated all of the extras you provided, tangible and intangible,for example the beach chairs, cooler and ice packs which made going to the beach so comfortable. We appreciated your friendliness and concern for our well being. We miss watching the bananaquits while having our morning coffee on your sunny verandah. What a great way to start the day. Please give Max and Rosie a pat on the head from us. We hope to come back again, Karin and Martin from snowy Toronto.

The BEST place to stay!

Our stay at Bamboo Cottage was WAY more than we could have expected! We spent a week (Jan 9-16, 2016). The owner, Joanne, is the best hostess you could ask for! All of her recommendations were spot on and we enjoyed them all immensely. It is the perfect combination of relaxing, lush tropical setting, but close to amenities and lovely beaches. We so enjoyed watching the King of Hummingbirds defend his feeder from the front porch of the cottage. The cottage is very well equipped. We actually cooked or grilled most evenings. The items available to take to the beach were wonderful - chairs, cooler, drinks cooler. It makes it so much easier than having to think about transporting that type of thing with you or buying it once there. We definitely plan to go back and stay again (and again.....). Joanne has so many repeat renters that you know you have found a wonderful vacation spot and to look no further! I cannot recommend enough!

Relaxation Destination

This was our first visit to Antigua, and our first venture into a non-resort vacation. We stayed 10 days at Bamboo Cottage. The pool, grounds and house were delightful. I especially enjoyed the hammock on the porch. Joanne was thoughtful, helpful and non-intrusive. She was a great ambassador for Antigua; a wealth of knowledge and with many recommendations. Two stores within walking distance: Bailey's grocery and Crabhole Liquors - both worth a visit. Shirley Heights Sunday night a must! We visited in off season, so some restaurants/svcs were not available however Trappas in Falmouth and Roti King in St. John's were open and both were favourites. A visit to St. John's recommended, but truthfully, the many beaches are the stars! Rendevous, Half Moon Bay and Turner Beach were all fantastic. Public Transit is an adventure; local taxi driver Jason was great. Privacy, beauty, relaxation with a dash of adventure. Thank you Joanne.

We were thrilled with the property. The photos do not due it justice.

Bamboo Cottage was like our own personal paradise. The lush secluded grounds were magnificent. Joanne is a fabulous host who is welcoming and informative, however she provides you with space and privacy. It is a delicate balance that she maintains so well. The delicious snack tray and rum punch upon arrival were very much appreciated after our journey. We had the pleasure of being in Antigua during mango season. Not only did Joanne provide us with a number of mangoes, she shared her knowledge on how to properly cut them. It was a first for me. We appreciated all the extra items that were included, especially the beach chairs and towels. Nightly swims in the pool were such an added perk. Thank you Joanne for sharing your beautiful oasis with us. We highly recommend this adorable, well appointed cottage. It made our trip to Antigua perfect. Barbara and John

Tranquil and tropical, in true Caribbean style

The property is in a fantastic location and an ideal base for exploring the island. Set amongst beautiful tropical gardens with its own pool it offers a luxury, rustic style accommodation with all mod cons, iron/board, coffee maker, towels including beach towels and even a cool box and snorkelling gear to use. Joanne really has thought of everything and is the perfect host. She’s is always on hand if you need her and is full of useful information and tips. She made us several reservations at restaurants and booked day trips for us on request whilst maintaining our privacy at all times. We somehow managed to leave a phone behind and Joanne went out of her way to return it to us, she even drove to the other side of the island to deliver it to the courier to ensure it’s safe return. We highly recommend Bamboo cottage and Joanne and can’t wait to return. Some of our highlights include feeding the resident tortoises, watching the beautiful birds in the garden and Joanne’s lovely dogs Max and Rosie. Thanks for everything Joanne, we miss you guys and can’t wait to return!

SSSSShhhhh keep it our hidden secret !!!!

We arrived totally exhausted from very busy stressful jobs and walked into this hidden tranquil paradise. To greet us was the fabulous Joanne, an amazing lady with the ability to make you feel welcome, at ease and nothing was too much, a beautiful and funny soul that I hope remains in our lives.... although a stranger when we got there, I looked forward to seeing her when she would say hi, never intrusive , both her and Max and Rosie her gorgeous dogs got the balance right. The cottage was everything we needed, being a fussy one with cleanliness, I could not fault the linens and towels etc... the pool provided enough privacy between the two properties so as not to feel overlooked. putting my food in the compost now makes me miss feeding the tortoise in Joannes garden I enjoyed such a simple task who knew I like watching tortoise ! We cannot recommend the cottage or the house enough, have no hesitation booking this one people, I promise you will not regret it. But I don't want it to get too popular, so we can never book it !!!! Jo, thank you for everything.... Maria, Duncan and Blaize we hope to see you soon xxxxxxxx ps Duncan says hi to his "bird" x

Stay in the real Antigua

We arrived in Antigua to pouring rain and drove to Bamboo Cottage to receive a lovely warm welcome from Joanne. The cottage is nestled in Joannes wonderful tropical garden and is just how it looks in the pictures. Inside is everything you need for a self-catering holiday and if something is not there Joanne will soon provide it for you. The sun made its appearence on the Monday and we started to explore the Island, you really need a 4x4 for this as the roads are not in good condition. Bamboo cottage is situated in the south part of the island and is only a short drive away from Nelsons Dockyard, Shirley Heights and English Harbour, the two local beaches are Pigeon and Gallion and both are lovely. There are many exclusive and inclusive resorts on the island but most of them allow you access to their facilities and always their beach as all beaches in Antigua are public. We highly recommend Non Such Bay resort for the lovely lunch, Antigua Villiage (next door to Sandals) for the clear water and friendly people and Hermitage Bay resort for the beautiful deserted beach. Just a minute from Bamboo cottage is Baileys supermarket which was an experience in its self the owner has been there all her life and is an amazing character. You can get everything you need in there and they had just opened a fish booth whilst we were there so now you can buy fresh/frozen fish daily. There is also an excellent pizzeria just further on and the chef bakes fresh bread and croissants daily - wonderful although not great for the waist line. I would recommend Bamboo cottage if you would like to see the real Antigua, luxury it is not there is no TV, dogs bark and tree frogs croak all night and you have goats and chickens as neighbours. However you have a lovely pool to swim in, a lovely garden to sit in, and a veranda to have dinner on (beware though take lots of Mosquito spray for the evenings). Joanne is a lovely host and very knowledgeable about the Island. She also has other accommodation at the base of her house and she showed us around this and it gorgeous especially if there are more than two however for us Bamboo cottage was ideal. We left Antigua in the sunshine having had a really wonderful holiday, we had laughed, we had swum in the sea every day even when it rained, eaten well and most of all had a lovely rest. Thank you Joanne for sharing your home with us.

Your search for a place in Antigua ends with this listing!

If you have stumbled across this listing for a VRBO in Antigua, your search has just ended. Book now. My husband and I just finished five glorious nights at Bamboo Cottage. It was a little slice of heaven and exactly what the doctor ordered for two haggard educators! I would like to say that the photos in the listing are accurate, but since the real thing is so amazing, perhaps they don't do it justice! ;) Every single day, I was staring out from the front porch or looking out from the pool and pinch myself. Was I really here? Was this real? It's that beautiful. Joanne, the owner is absolutely wonderful. Spent wonderful time with us, going over maps, helping us to get the lay of the land. She was so kind and thoughtful and, as a bonus, whenever she was around, there were two little dogs and a cat following close behind. The animals were so friendly and loved to receive a nice pet, which I was all too happy to give! Everything in the cottage was perfectly appointed; you will want for nothing. Book today!

About the host

Hosted by 12687363630

Host profile image
Joanne, your host is a Canadian who has been living in Antigua for the past 24 years. She is an avid gardener and the property reflects this. Another of Joanne's passion is food, for over 12 years she ran a restaurant she started in the harbour. Having sold the restaurant she now turns her attention to the maintenance of her garden and growing mico herbs for the restaurants & yacht chefs. Want to feel at home, Joanne is your best host!

Why they chose this property

I had the cottage built in 2009 in my garden as I think it is a very beautiful place and wanted to share it with others.

What makes this property unique

The sound of the birds singing during the day and the tree frogs in the evening add to swimming tin the pool that is surrounded by bamboo and palm trees and is even more beautiful in the evening in the bath temperture water and the star clustered skies.
