My group was here on an island tour. My Anchorage story was this: i could not get enough of their chocolate cake dessert! (You will not find a better choc. cake! Their chicken fingers were also the # 1 on the island! Had both in several spots...best here by far.)
Since i was w/a group i couldn't get to the local store which sold the chocolate made on Dominica...as i was telling this to Daryl, an employee of the Anchorage, she offered to get it for me and drop it off to me! That in itself is pretty amazing! However, my group departed & we missed each other.
I was sitting in the airport departure lounge when i was told i had a pkg from the Anchorage...sure enough, Yvonne, the owner of the Anchorage, had it delivered all the way out there!
If there's better service on the whole island of Dominica I'd be amazed!
The hotel is renovating& is looking great! A guy in our group stayed at their cottages& raved during our whole trip as well.
My deepest gratitude to Yvonne& her staff!

It is old and run down and that is ok but the staff were the worst I think I have ever seen. I understand island slow but these people were just plain rude and sometimes nasty. We have been all over the world driving including most of the eastern Caribbean and have never had this type of treatment. We left the island three days early.

Stayed with the folks at Anchorage along with our school SCUBA club 25 people total. We had a great time. Staff went out of there way to accomadate our large group. Loved working with the entire dive staff. Seamore and Andrew were fantastic loved talking to them. Their boat Passion was the best dive boat I have ever been on. Andrew's reputation as the whale whisperer is still intact.

I went for a short weekend break from Antigua to Dominica and was pleasantly surprised by the welcome and hospitality in Anchorage hotel. Due to an airport closure in Antigua my flight was delayed, so I called the hotel to advise that I will arrive around midnight.The welcome at the hotel was great-I was really tired and was taken to my room in minutes.
The room is basic and next time I will definitely upgrade to the bigger rooms but it served my purpose.The next morning I went for breakfast and there was a la carte and buffet style breakfast available- it was fine-the only negative comment I have to make was that it would have been nice to get coffee prior to the actual restaurant opening time of 7.15am- I was ready to go at 6.00am and no coffee was available.The staff in the restaurant was very pleasant- so was the reception staff- helpful at all times.I signed up for whale watching and was not able to do it on the day I had anticipated but again the staff at the hotel went out of their way to make it possible the very next day prior to my departuretime.It is a trip you should not miss- we saw a whale , dolphins and turtles.
The hotel is located in walking distance of Roseau and has a local bus stop in front of the hotel. I would recommend to rent a car if you decide to explore the Island , as taxiprices are high.There is a Mexican restaurant close by and I had dinner there - it was good.The hotel offered only buffet dinner that night and I was not impressed by the food there- I had the lunch buffet the same day and I found that the price/ value was not good.
In summary -Dominica is a beautiful Island and I will surely go back many more times- the people are so nice and the area where Anchorage is located is ideal for all ventures out- the staff is A1- I will be back thanks everyone at Anchorage
