We chose not to rent a car, given the challenges of driving around the Island. The hotel suggested a car and driver, which worked out perfectly for us!

Karine, Lina and the entire team at Mango Island Lodges welcome you like long-lost family from the moment you arrive. The rooms and property are simply lovely, with every need and want anticipated and provided for. There are options to use air conditioning or overhead fans for sleeping comfortably at night, with plenty of hot water as needed. The small soaking pool is a delight for any time of day, and a special place to watch the sunset every evening. Karine is a fabulous cook and every meal provides an opportunity to enjoy the bounty of Dominica. Ask Lina to make you her special rum punch, or enjoy mixed juices made from local fruits and fresh coconut. The Lodges provide a laid-back atmosphere for relaxation, and a great home base for adventures you can explore around the island. We made a day trip to Batibou Beach, which was absolutely stunning and almost deserted on the day of our visit.

A very small (6 rooms!) and peaceful hotel situated about half way up the West coast of Dominica. The location provides easy access to both the the natural wonders of the Valley area behind Roseau and the Portsmouth area in the NW. Mero beach is nearby and walkable, at least on the way down. Very friendly and helpful staff, excellent room (we booked one of the Prestige rooms), lovely dinners.

A really nice, boutique hotel in a stunning location, convenient for visiting most of the island (with a car). Stephane was incredibly helpful with planning places to visit, and his team are excellent and really friendly. Food was good too.

Nothing. Really.

Our stay at Mango Island Lodges left us refreshed, serene, and ready to get back to real life. Mango Island is not a conventional hotel - it is a beautiful, lovingly built home Stéphane and Karine graciously share with the rest of the world. Each room is unique, with whimsical touches and beautiful art work, yet not skimping on creature comforts like a hair dryer or the means to make a good cup of tea. The infinity pool offers views of the sun setting over the Caribbean, plus the chance to cool weary muscles after a long day of island hiking. The food in the restaurant is the best we’ve had on Dominica, served with a smile by Lina, who also mixed up a perfect rum punch and Mango Colada. My husband and I know our way around Dominica, but we heard Stéphane and Karine recommend tours to other guests, tailored to their individual needs and interests. They really, really want their lodgers to gave the best possible experience during their stay on Dominica, and they are willing to put in every bit of extra time and effort this may take. Mango Island Lodges is friendly, yet professional. It’s a home away from home that also feels very special - a tricky balance to achieve, but Stephane and Karine have found it. We will definitely be back.

I throughly enjoy the property. My only regret is that I didn’t spend enough time exploring it.

Impeccable service. Great food onsite. do not look any further.

Beside the fact that you require a SUV 4x4/AWD to get to their paradise, there is nothing to mention. Nevertheless you really require a SUV 4x4/AWD to visit the island! So it is not an issue to get to the place.

We returned for a second time as our last stay was perfect. And once again, we had the best stay during our entire trip. The room has everything you need. Very spacious and clean. Very good and big bed, well functioning AC, very nice shower, etc... Only good things! Also both the owners, Stephan and Carine, are so helpful. We had a bit of a medical issue and they immidiatly helped us. Also the food is the best you can have on the island! Both of them are very good cooks! The swimming pool/jacuzzi is a big benifit to cool down and relax. The lodges are situated on the Carribean side of Dominica (best side), and from here it is possible to drive to the highlights (Roseau Valley, beaches, snorkling spots, small cities,...) of Dominica all within 1hour. Highly recommend to stay here and enjoy the hospitality of the owners and staff and visit Dominica!

The way up is a bit steep, I don't know if it is possible with every rental car, but a small SUV (4x4/AWD) is perfectly capable of doing the climb. And it is nevertheless recommended to have one on the island ;-)

Beautiful room (Mango room) with the best bed we had on Dominica. We received a room upgrade as that one was available. The hosts and staff do everything in their power to make your stay a relaxing one. All are very friendly and helpful. We even received a small phone to take with us and to give them a call in case of troubles or questions. Nice view from the swimmingpool/jacuzzi as well. And the food... Amazing and very tasteful! Something you will not find somewhere else. Wifi is available in the entire hotel/lodge.
