Peaceful getaway cottage with beautiful pool, in the perfect location. We were there to celebrate our 20th anniversary. Sarah was an amazing host and person who was conveniently in close proximity to assist with any questions or needs that we had. She was very respectful and we had wonderful conversations and really enjoyed her dog honey who plays hard to get. haha but really likes us and spent alot of time with us. All in all wonderful island the beaches are the best and people are very friendly. Thanks again Sarah wishing you the best love Mike and Jen

We had a good stay at the cottage but the best part was the host Sarah. She is a lovely woman with great tips on the island and just a pleasure to talk to.

Driftwood Cottage is a heavenly spot.Beautiful gardens, with a huge variety of plants ,surround Sarah’s inviting and relaxing open air cottage. Birds abound . Every detail has been attended to here. Art and pottery enhance the feeling . The pool is large and lovely. We enjoyed it immensely. A lifetime of TLC has been poured into Driftwood..No casinos or bars in the vicinity, but several lovely restaurants, and of course beaches and hiking all near by.If you enjoy beauty , peace, tranquility and charm then don’t hesitate. We hope to return soon.

I cannot recommend Driftwood Cottage highly enough. We spent a glorious three days-after a busy week sailing around the island in a catamaran. Sarah is a great host: attentive but respectful of our privacy. The cottage is beautiful and the pool and gardens delightful. A great, quiet spot but literally 10 minutes from the airport! Would return in a heartbeat!

Sarah’s cottage was exactly as she described. The gardens and pool were beautiful and relaxing. We enjoyed listening to the tree frogs at night and seeing all the lizards and beautiful birds. Sarah’s dog Honey was adorable, and Sarah provided us with great recommendations for beaches and restaurants. We rented a car, and the cottage was convenient to all beaches..and a nice, relaxing place to come back to after exploring the island.

This cottage was amazing. I got everything I was looking for out of this trip. The lovely garden and pool were an added bonus. Sarah is wonderful and I’m so glad I stayed with her. The bed was great. Having a kitchen to make my own food was great. I feel like I’m part of a secret society that knows and have stayed here. I met some folks staying at a local chain all inclusive and they spent over 7k. They stayed one day longer than I stayed in Antigua. I didn’t pay anything close to that. I enjoyed everything about the cottage and will be back. Thank you to everyone that made my stay restful and rejuvenating. I arranged some tours through Expedia and did a google search for another excursion. I did not rent a car. I don’t trust myself driving on the opposite side of the road. I did not have any problems using a driver. Have a wonderful time. Book this place! You will not regret it. If peace and quiet is what you’re looking for- look no further!

Driftwood Cottage provided the perfect Caribbean escape. Set behind a lovely pool in Sarah's magical garden, the rustic cottage is truly a departure from the usual day-to-day. Sleeping under netting in the beautiful antique bed and listening to the birds and frogs gave us a true taste of island life. Sarah shared stories from her many years on Antigua and provided many recommendations for our stay. We loved setting out each day to explore the island then returning to our little piece of paradise at day's end. Thank you for a wonderful stay! We hope to return!

This is a lovely guest house and pool on Sarah's property. It is authentic Antigua charm with a basic but fulsome kitchen, inside/outside living, and sleeping in an antique bed with mosquito netting. The area is quiet and the nearby beach lovely.

This is such a wonderful cottage with an awesome pool. Sarah is the perfect hostess offering fantastic recommendations about the island. I liked the location in regard to finding food whether it's the great grocery store, superb restaurants and even delicious road stands. Since there are 365 beaches in Antigua and it only takes 40 minutes to go from one end to the other - you can easily explore a new beach every day.

Go for a luxurious swim. Sunbathe. Swim. Walk the gardens. Grill some dinner. Swim again. Life at Driftwood Cottage is simple! We took each day slowly while staying at Sarah's cottage and still our trip passed so quickly, our singular complaint is that we couldn't move in permanently. The cottage is beautiful, private, and peaceful. The neighborhood of Hodges Bay is conveniently located relative to St. John's, the airport, and the main roads to get anywhere on the island quickly and easily. Sarah was so responsive and we really enjoyed our little chat with her. She has a wealth of information about where to go, about the island itself, and lovely stories of her time in Antigua. We would recommend Driftwood Cottage to anyone looking for an exceptionally calm, secluded spot that's not too far from anything.

Sarah was a super host, very knowledgeable of the island and helpful in every way. If you are at one with nature you will certainly enjoy the peace and tranquillity of bird song during the daylight hours followed by treefrogs and crickets in the evening. The pool is perfect and Sarah's garden is a delight of form and colour illustrating over forty years of planting. For those wishing to explore the island I would recommend car hire that Sarah is able to assist with. Additionally, if you seek to self cater there is a first class supermarket a short drive away. For my wife and I staying at Driftwood Cottage was one of the most relaxing holidays we have ever encountered. All in all a delightful experience.

This lovely open air bungalow is surrounded by trees and gardens in a large private yard offering a relaxing stroll. Stepping out onto the veranda one finds a comfortable dining table overlooking the beautiful large pool and poolside area just steps away. Sarah Fuller, the owner, is wonderful to talk to and full of information having lived on the island for over forty years. She takes a genuine interest in her guests and their wants and needs. The property is a short drive from several excellent restaurants and walking distance to one. We left knowing we have a new friend on Antigua! We look forward to visiting again.

We had a most wonderful week at Driftwood Cottage . Sarah was an attentive host full of useful information about the island and even arranged for an experienced sailing friend to visit and give us first hand recommendations for our sailing trip the following week . The cottage was just what we hoped it would be - a traditional building which had previously been a schoolhouse . We slept soundly in the enormous bed listening to the sounds of the night (tree frogs, wind , early morning birdsong) and waking to the sunrise . The pool and gardens were a delight , the pool wonderful for a swim or just to cool off and the gardens so mature , colourful , tropical . We hired a car and enjoyed exploring Antigua - easy to get around and lots to see . We loved Cecilia’s for dinner great food and ambience and also Casa Roots for lunch - what a location . We couldn’t have asked for more . Thank you Sarah

Sarah's cottage is terrific in every way. Well appointed, comfortable and everything you might need whether you plan to lounge by the lovely pool in her superb garden or get out and explore Antigua's amazing beaches. Sarah is a wonderful host who knows everything about the area - you can rely on her recommendations. There are a number of cracking restaurants within 10 - 15mins. Casa Roots and Cecilias get a special mention. Thank you Sarah 😊

We sadly just left Antigua and Sarah's little piece of paradise. Such a relaxing place to unwind after a day of exploring or for morning coffee before a day of exploring!! The front porch and pool setting are amazing. Inside is everything you will need in the kitchen and the bathroom and the bed is a very comfortable King bed. We did a lot of exploring of this beautiful island and Sarah's insight was priceless. She recommended a lot of beautiful beaches and lots of restaurants that we took advantage of. It's a good location out of the business of the city and close enough to everything. You are never more than 40 minutes from anything on the island. I would recommend renting a car if you want to see everything this beautiful island has to offer or you could just stay at the pool which is incredibly peaceful and relaxing. Very thankful for finding this place and thankful Sarah was such a gracious and informative host!

This gorgeous traditional Antiguan cottage is full of character and was exactly our style. It is located on the north shore in Hodges Bay and is tucked away in a idyllic tropical garden tended by the wonderful on-site host Sarah Fuller. You will feel as though you are in a private tropical oasis surrounded by palm trees, flowers and a beautiful private pool. You will have to share the oasis however, with adorable bananaquit birds and little geckos by day, and you will be lulled to sleep to the sounds of the waves and tree frogs at night. The cottage is open concept in the truest sense, with high ceilings and open windows and doors that can be shuttered, but why bother? The beautiful four poster king bed is the centrepiece of one side, with the well stocked kitchen and sitting area on the other. The outdoor living area starts with a great large wraparound porch with loungers, dining table, and a perfect clothesline to take advantage of the tropical breeze. The ambiance inside and out is beautifully enhanced at night by Sarah’s handmade terra cotta light shades, and the stone pool deck and

Driftwood Cottage reminds one of Caribbean cottages of the past: wooden rather than concrete, where all the living happens outside. There is a spacious verandah on two sides of the cottage, where one can recline in the shade, enjoy one’s breakfast or an afternoon drink, amidst the quiet peaceful park-like setting. Sarah is an exceptional host, supportive, knowledgeable and helpful. Her enthusiasm for gardening has made this a tropical paradise – indeed, one hesitates to leave the property, so appealing is the environment. A perfect place to relax and unwind. Having discovered this cottage, we are already dreaming of returning again soon.

Sarah is such a nice host who made sure our vacation was pleasurable. The open air cottage was lovely and the grounds were beautiful, filled with a variety of tropical plants. Pool was refreshing and the king bed was luxurious. Location was very convenient to the airport. And the island is so small that we were able to easily travel to anywhere on the island with our rental car. If we visit Antigua again, we would stay here!

Absolutely loved every moment of this secret escape, the property is a cute, rustic cottage with the most amazing pool set in stunning gardens. It was truly the most relaxing holiday, embracing indoor and outdoor living. The property is open plan with a wrap around veranda, multiple seating and lounging areas. It has everything you could possibly need for self catering, including gas BBQ. The property is in a great location with a fine dining restaurant less than 5 minutes walk, and a amazing steak house “ Gather” and “ Garden Grill” a short 5 minute drive away, we enjoyed fantastic meals and romantic lunches. It was a very short walk to beautiful beaches, local store and restaurants. I can honestly say this was the most relaxing holiday we have ever experienced, making the most of the tranquil surroundings and huge pool. We received the warmest welcome from the host, Sarah is an amazingly talented, big hearted lady, with a passion for creativity and art. This is evident in her hand made sculpture and pottery designs display around the property. I honestly felt emotional leaving as it felt like a home from home. It was truly a secret escape and I wasn’t ready to leave after almost two weeks. I was grateful the we didn’t go to one of the big resorts and we discovered this little gem. We definitely be back! Thank you Sarah, you are truly an inspiring, fun-loving, incredible lady and it has been your pleasure to meet you and family xx

We had a wonderful stay at Sarah's property, she was a truly excellent host. Walking distance to a shop and local takeaway which served great food. The pool area was beautiful and it was so lovely to stargaze of an evening. You are within walking distance to Jabberwock beach but the beautiful beach of Dickenson Bay is just a 10 minute drive away. We would love to return one day, thank you for a lovely relaxing trip!

What a wonderful, tranquil, beautiful little corner of this amazing island. Driftwood Cottage is absolutely the ideal place to stay for a couple looking to get away from it all, whilst being able to explore the whole island easily (car essential though - watch out for potholes!) The pool is glorious, the Cottage is cute and has everything you need, and the tropical gardens are like a tamed jungle with lots of humming birds, lizards, tree frogs and the owner’s stunning pieces of art (we even returned with one!). The owner, the gardener and the maid do everything they can to help - from restaurant, supermarket and beach recommendations, to helping with washing, drying and returning laundry - and someone is always on hand or nearby. A truly amazing place to stay. Highly recommend it - we will return!

Myself, my husband and 5 year old son stayed in Sarah's beautiful Antigua cottage. It was the perfect stay for our family!! We were able to relax and reset from our crazy big city life. I can't say enough how nice the property was so here is a list for you some of the highlights we had: our own private pool for swimming, the cottage is 5 min walk to a beautiful beach, there is store 5 min walk if you need something, there is a rope swing (my son loved) in beautiful well-maintained garden, birds / lizards everywhere, woke up every morning to sounds of nature and birds singing, fresh island air flowing through cottage, little kitchenette where we had everything we needed to make meals or snacks, adult and kids board games to play, beautiful bathroom and great shower with strong flow of hot water, lots of clean towels and bedding was as nice as fancy hotel. For me cleanliness is so important and this place was spotless. The bed was very comfortable and my husband, myself and son slept very comfortably as it was a HUGE 4 poster canopy bed with very comfortable king size mattress. (just so you know Sarah has a pull out couch too, if you have a child, but my son likes sleeping with mommy) Sarah was always available to answer any questions but she also gave us privacy to enjoy our stay. She is a lovely person to chat with and after our visit we consider her a friend :) we will definitely be returning to her cottage on our next stay in Antigua!! :)

My boyfriend and I spent 5 days in this beautiful cottage and it exceeded all of our expectations. Sarah was an amazing host and was always accommodating and available to answer any of our questions. This unique stay is situated outside of the touristy area in St. John’s and is the perfect place to relax and be surrounded by nature. We will definitely be back!
