The host, Michael, was a charming guy, excusing himself for the run down condition of the place, located with spectacular views, but explaining he was only managing the place for a week. He cooked a very tasty breakfast in the morning for us. Well, these are about the only positive things to say about El Momo Wow, paying a bill... More

I returned to El Momo from May 2-4. My only regret is that I didn't stay longer, but I had spent the week before in Statia and had to return home. Andries and Garfield were 100% accommodating in making sure that my stay was stress-free, relaxing, enjoyable, and perfect - all the things a vacation should be. There is quite... More

Stayed 5 nights in Cottage in the Sky. Views to die for! Very private. Joost and D.J were always available when we needed something. The breakfast and communal dinner we had were excellent. Definitely strengthened our legs walking up and down the stairs and into town. If you want more creature comforts and pampering, this may not be the place... More

We had reserved for 5 nights and left after the first night. The cottages are run down and filthy. They have not been maintained. The paint on the terraces was green and the wood rotting. We had ants crawling on us while we slept and wouldn't even unzip our suitcases. The decorations in the cottage were computer printouts tacked to... More

We were booked for 7 nights in the Cottage in the Sky cabin but left after 3. The view is beautiful, the stairs are not a problem, but the cottage we were in was filthy and in need of cleaning and maintenance. We have stayed in ecco type cottages before, we camp in the summer, we can do rustic and... More

I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at El Momo. Joost is professional, friendly, and helpful. The atmosphere is cheery, quiet, laid-back, and peaceful. And WHAT a view. Perfect place to stay on a getaway, particularly for single travelers or couples. This is exactly the kind of guesthouse my husband and I look for when we travel. I can recommend the cottage... More

This is by far one of the best hotels/guesthouses I've ever stayed in! DJ and Joost are wonderful and attentive hosts, and from the cooking to the impromptu ice cream snacks to the cabin decorations, they do their best to make it a truly memorable stay. If you're looking for something slightly rustic, close to nature, and with a great... More

Dear tripadvisor readers, please if you choose to visit Saba, do stay at El Momo Cottages! It is a very beautiful, back to basic little resort, with the most friendly staff one can wish for. What I have appreciated most about my stay at El Momo was definitely the small scale of the business as well as the personal service... More

El Momo was recommended for the good 'cost benefit' and the friendly staff. Indeed, DJ and Joost were super welcoming and always available to answer our questions about the island, recommend restaurants and make our reservations. Also, since the first contact with Joost we were warned about the numerous steps we'd have to face, so that shouldn't be an evaluation... More
