Tilbaketrukket skytop retrett med fantastisk hav og fjellutsikt
Cliffhanger Cottage er designet, bygget og elsket av Peter Fernandez, stemmen av Speed Racer i den opprinnelige anime TV-show. Ligger i en nasjonalpark, er hytta som ligger på et fjell høyt over Det karibiske hav. Det er en konstant bris og utsikten er fantastisk. Mot øst er Falmouth Harbor, i sør en eksotisk åsside hage og det åpne havet, mot vest, nes og øya Montserrat med sin annen vulkansk aktivitet. I nord, fjellene riste til sjøen. En sti som fører til tidevannsbassenger og Rendezvous-stranden begynner ved huset. Det er et fugleperspektiv over alle seil løpene i den engelske Harbor Falmouth regionen. Klassiske og racer uker finner sted rett under sør dekk. Besøkende forteller oss at vi har "den beste utsikten i Karibien."
Huset er på to nivåer. Det øverste nivået har et velutstyrt kjøkken, stue med marmorgulv, stor treveis dekk og soverom med en dobbel himmelseng. Utenfor soverommet er et bad og stor dusj åpen mot havet.
Jo lavere nivået er veldig privat med egen dekk og et soverom med enkeltsenger sammen, som består av en king size seng. Dette rommet har mulighet for air condition eller dører åpne til sjøen, hage og dekk. Over dekk er et stort bad med dusj og mer utsikt til sjøen. På et midt nivå er en ekstra dekk bygget spesielt for Yoga.
Huset har mobiltelefon signal og internett. Med lyden av havet i ørene, vil den fantastiske utsikten du virkelig kunne slappe av i rytmer til sjøen, brisen og de tropiske fuglene. For en virtuell tur, se http: // se. paradym. com / 3735502
Cliffhanger er perfekt for turgåere. Guider kan ordnes gjennom vår venn Dassa of Footsteps Rainforest Hiking. Se hans hjemmeside. En 45 minutters gange til den vakre Rendezvous Beach begynner i hagen. En annen sti går ned til private steinbassenger og en liten strand. Av og Knølhval kan bli seende bare offshore fra dekk. På visse tider av året Leather skilpaddene legger sine egg på de øde strendene i nærheten. Fregatt fugler og brune pelikaner sveve forbi i øyehøyde.
En kort avstand unna ligger Spring Hill Caribbean Equestrian Center hvor rideturer kan ordnes til Rendezvous Beach. Ti minutter unna, landsbyene Falmouth og engelsk Harbour har alle fasiliteter pluss dykke butikker. En kort avstand over bakken er den vakre Pigeon Beach. Seiling kan ordnes på Antigua Yacht Club, og med leksjoner for nybegynnere.
Mange bare slappe av, ute av stand til å forlate dekk og sine synspunkter. Lyden av havet sammen med tre frosker i skumringen gjør for magi. I tillegg avslører de fantastiske solnedgangene, nattehimmelen med alle konstellasjonene seg med perfekt klarhet.
Hvis derimot, får du lyst til å forlate dekk for litt natteliv, Falmouth og og engelsk Harbour tilbyr alle slags restaurant fra gourmet til lokal mat. Etter middagen, danse hele natten til gode reggae band.
I hagen kan du finne en vennlig feline leieboer heter Jasper. Han kan være litt sjenert i begynnelsen.
Her er noen utdrag fra vår gjestebok:
"En annen bryllup på dekk-ser ut til å være i huset av lykke."
"Vi likte det så mye vi giftet seg på dekk. Vi er fortsatt snakke om din fantastiske huset i himmelen. "
Mars posting av Antigua miljøgruppe.
«Ja, det er den tiden av året igjen, og det er hvaler aplenty blir observert på en daglig basis i våre farvann.
I april er Classic Regatta og seilingsuke, racing yachter takker rett under huset.

What a beautiful spot to spend our Christmas. The views are incredible and you can happily lose hours swinging in the hammocks. Would highly recommend you stay here. I am glad we had a 4 wheel drive car due to the road up to the house.

In a beautiful position but slightly Showing it’s age now.
We really enjoyed staying at Cliffhanger, the best view in Antigua! Parts of the house are getting tired but we had a lovely stay. T’Mara looked after us very well.
This is an amazing property and my wife and I had a wonderful weeklong stay. T’Mara is super responsive and kind and made it easy on us to relax and enjoy the beautiful island. Rental car is a must, 4x4 would be great for navigating the island and steep bumpy road to the property but we used a 2wd SUV and had no problems. I wouldn’t rent a small low clearance car. Oh and Jasper the cat is an amazing host and we loved having him hang out w us.
Simply couldn't rate my stay higher. Absolutely loved the Caribbean vibe within the décor & surrounding areas + the view couldn't be more stunning. I even got to see whales jumping in the sea while I sipped on my coffee. I didn't leave during my stay & would have stayed much longer if I could have. Sure hope I have the blessing to stay at Cliffhanger Cottage again sometime soon.
My husband & I had the most relaxing time at this beautiful home. The view will take your breath away! We hiked to Rendezvous Beach one day for a swim at this beautiful secluded beach. We laid in the hammocks and slept to the sound of tree frogs. T’amara met us at our hotel and guided us to the house, and was great throughout our stay . I loved sharing our stay with Jasper the cat! What a diamond in the rough!
Everything about the time we spent in this perfect house was magic! We saw double rainbows daily. The 180 degree view from the porch is amazing- no other houses in sight. The views from inside the house are gorgeous too. The cottage is open air so there is always a breeze flowing thru (and sometimes birds!). The shower on the upper floor is open to the surrounding forest- sublime. And such a treat to have Jasper the cat in residence! As soon as we left we wanted to come back!! And we will…..be back (depending on T’amra’s review😜)!
We have just returned from a fabulous stay at Cliffhanger cottage. As every other review makes mention of....the views really are spectacular - we loved simply sitting and reading on the deck and enjoying the scenery!
There was a constant cooling breeze for the 8 days that we stayed, which helped to make the temperature really comfortable (no problem sleeping in the bedroom which isn't airconditioned).
We loved the walks to local beaches, including Rendezvous, which is about 40 mins walk from the cottage.
T'mara was super helpful - always very responsive when we had questions ahead of our trip and both she and Noel were really friendly when showing us around.
Thanks for a brilliant holiday!!
We loved our stay (January 2020). Everything was as advertised and even better. You wake to views of sunrise over the harbour, lounge in the hammocks watching boats go by, and end your day with beautiful sunsets to the west where you see no other properties. You are surrounded by beautiful gardens that attract hummingbirds. We had planned to visit the island but could not leave this wonderful place! Although we did not use Our rented Jeep much and we would recommend at least an all wheel drive vehicle to get to this Cliffhanger property. Although I’m allergic to cats, I got to love seeing Jasper around and with the open air concept of the house, my allergies were fine.
We stayed for two weeks at Cliffhanger Cottage, in late June and early July 2023. We were there for a youth regatta that was held out of Nelson’s Dockyard.
Staying here was an amazing experience, and we enjoyed it so much. The views are absolutely exquisite, and the sea breeze key us cool all day.
We liked having the downstairs bedroom with the air conditioning, because it was a little warm for us at night, considering we were there in summer. I can see how you wouldn’t need that though at other times of the year.
Definitely get a 4 x 4 if you are renting here. I could not get a 4 x 4 at the airport. However, there is a car rental place in downtown English Harbor, that we rented from, and they were very reasonably priced.
Jasper the cat is super friendly, and we enjoyed having him around, and fell in love with him. 💙
Everyone that works on this property is so nice, and I enjoyed meeting everyone very much.
In fact, I enjoyed meeting everyone on the island. Our car broke down one day, and everyone stopped to help. Antigua is a friendly island, and I hope that we have the opportunity to return some day. If so, we will definitely stay at Cliffhanger Cottage!
We hadn't been to the Caribbean since living there w toddlers. Booked this cottage to celebrate youngest's 30th. Absolute perfection--we're not hotel/resort people. We love quiet & solitude.That's exactly what this is--complete serenity. Location, views and open-window breezes are ideal. Be clear, though, it isn't just the cottage, it's the people.T'mara and Pauline went way beyond expectations to ensure our comfort and happiness, always. My daughter had an allergic reaction & they delivered benadryl & hydrocortisone! Also got to the root of the cause w unbelievable care & compassion. T'mara also helped arrange a surprise cake. If that wasn't enough, her reggae band saluted our bday girl at ShirleyHeights! The Antiguans we met filled our hearts, but none like T'mara & Pauline.Well stocked kitchen. Appreciated basics in place, so no need to shop immediately (again, relaxation). New fridge, hob has seen better days, but worked fine. Beds comfy. Hammocks...yeah. Yoga on lower deck (mats there). Gardens beautifully maintained by sweetest woman. Path down to tide pools & Rendezvous Bay (we drove). Awesomeness.Eating: Mauro's surpassed expectations. Colibri DIVINE. 268Brewery2 food trucks w drinkable beer. Tippys/BeachBum@HalfMoonBay-mahi burgers on the beach!Bring: Kindles/books (hammocks), binies for super-yacht spying,collapsible cooler, 4x4 (Sandy Feet)We lived overseas for 20 yrshave seen the world. Cottages like this are rare. T'mara & Pauline even more so.3
Our first visit was in April….and we had to come back just weeks later! Our communication with the wonderful T’Mara is incredible and the breeze is constant!
The perfect place for the two of us!
Staying at Cliffhanger Cottage was so much better than staying in a hotel. First of all the views are unparalleled and you will never tire of them. To have the space and the big deck and a huge showers is better than any hotel suite. T’Mara the manager was so kind & responsive. She not only met us at the airport and directed us all the way to the house, she responded immediately to any small issues we had. The location is perfect, only 10 mins to English Harbor but still out of the busyness of it. You’ll need a small SUV as the road to get to the house is pretty bad but you’ll soon navigate it like a pro. Part of the fun. I would definitely stay here again.
Oh and you should really like cats if you’re going to book. This is Jasper the cat’s house and he’s just letting you stay there haha. He’s very sweet and affectionate. We love cats so this was a bonus for us.
Beautiful open window/door home. Perfect for us to cook breakfasts and sometimes dinner. Restaurants close in Falmouth and English Harbours. Most mornings had a light mist (less than 5 minutes) to create beautiful rainbows. Sunsets with a beverage in hand sitting on the lounge chair concluded our days. Garden on property is nice and leads to a trail to Rendevous Beach. I'd recommend couples who like to relax, cook, enjoy the outdoors to stay here.
Me and my wife stayed here for our honeymoon and could not be happier with this beautiful property! The host was so unbelievably welcoming, Jasper the house cat was an absolute sweetheart and the views from the deck were unlike anything we have either seen in person in our entire lives! We will be coming back to this house, it is straight out of a dream! Everything was fantastic! Falling asleep to the sounds of waves crashing on the shore and waking up to the views of crystal clear teal waters surrounding mountains, oh and the occasional screaming mountain goats hahaa! Everything about this property was spot on and mind blowing! Thank you so much for your hospitality and the experience of a lifetime! This property is absolutely one of a kind!!
T’mara was an excellent host, very helpful and considerate. House is charming and well appointed, including kitchen. Views are spectacular. From dusk to dawn house has mosquitoes, gnats, moths, beetles. It is like camping. There are no screens except in downstairs bedroom with AC. Slept there to avoid mosquitoes. Recommend repellent with deet, mosquito coils and citronella candles in the evening.
We have been to different houses on different islands in the Caribbean. But this house is unique. Exceptional view and location. You inevitably end up like the real owner of the house, Jasper the cat: sleeping, eating and enjoying the view.
Accommodations: We had a great stay at Cliffhanger. The cottage was clean and well maintained, and the grounds were beautifully designed and manicured. We loved watching the hummingbirds every morning. The views were unmatched and the breeze always blowing. We’re from New England and not acclimated to the heat so we resorted to the lower bedroom for air-conditioned sleep (we found the upstairs mattress to be more comfortable). The cottage windows do not have screens so it’s necessary to close up in the evening to prevent mosquito encounters.
Island Exploration: Our explorations included hiking directly from the property to Rendezvous Beach for a private swim. We also hiked down to the water's edge, though the sea was too rough for swimming that day. I think we counted 170 steps on the way back up, which were beautifully structured! We explored about 75% of the island with our rental car (watch for the potholes!), searching out some of the beaches we had read about (our favorite was Half Moon Bay). We felt our rental car was somewhat lacking for the drive up to Cliffhanger. It was about 2 miles of dirt and gravel from the paved road and rough in spots. The biggest challenge was the tall water bar spanning the road near the last climb. Our rental car barely cleared it without scraping the undercarriage. A small SUV or Jeep is more appropriate.
Property Management: T’Mara was awesome! She was always there to answer questions.
Summation: We had a great time and recommend Cliffhanger for anyone seeking sun, privacy, gentle breezes, beautiful views, clean accommodations, and relaxation. We still have 25% of the island to explore and Cliffhanger is at the top of our list when we return.

A week at Cliffhanger
Our stress melted away within hours of entering Cliffhanger! The views from all parts of the deck and comfy hammocks were extraordinary. T'mara was brilliant - from her pre-trip advice, to fresh flowers in the house on our arrival, stocked pantry and checking up on us mid-week. She waited patiently to meet us at arrivals and while we got our rental car and then led us to Cliffhanger. A rental car is a must! English Harbour is 10 mins away with shops, restaurants and bars. Several beaches are close by and anywhere is drivable.
From Cliffhanger, we saw a pod of whales watched the yachts racing, and watched birds big and small soaring and flitting about the beautiful garden. We also loved Jasper the cat. We would love to return!
