“A True Pleasure”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 May 2011
1
person found this review helpful

This will be a “straight to the point” review of our trip to the Commonwealth of Dominica. We had the pleasure of staying at two inns and I dove at a local dive shop. Let me start by saying if you are the type of person that is looking for or enjoys Hiltons, Sandals, or the Ritz Carlton type of accommodations, Dominica is not the place for you. This country has taken an eco-friendly approach, limiting the amount of topographical and environmental changes it allows. Thus, the natural beauty of this country is preserved and not destroyed through commercial industrialization.

Our first stay was at the Titiwi Inn, Roseau, Dominica, it was outstanding. The hospitality and personalized treatment by owners Keith and Janet was the best. They are located in the capital, so you have access to shops and restaurants if you chose to walk or take a taxi, it’s not far. Keith has a new 32 foot boat, if you chose the personal touch for whale watching, snorkeling, scuba or deep sea fishing, he can accommodate you. And can make arrangements for your hiking, river tubing, or tropical forest explorations. “Janet and Keith you have a jewel of a place and we will be back next year”.

Our next stay was at the “Silks Hotel” in Marigot, Dominica, for those of you who want a truly jungle/tropical experience this is the place. No televisions, clubs, shopping malls, just the beautiful forest, water falls and river. Joe and Emily will treat you like royalty and ensure your stay is comfortable and relaxing. The rooms are comfortable and very romantic; the food excellent, this place is for relaxing and enjoying the natural beauty of the tropical forest. We only spend one night here, but it was well worth it.

For those of you that enjoy diving, Dominica surpasses most of the other Caribbean islands in its determination to stay as natural as possible, especially its coastal areas and marine preserve. I dove with “AlDive” in Roseau and from the time we entered the water the natural beauty was evident. The abundance of marine life and healthy coral reefs were astonishing. My wife, who is not a diver decided after snorkeling to try the “Discover Scuba”, just because of the abundance of marine life she observed during her snorkeling time. I have try over the past several years to get her to try scuba, without success. The owners of AlDive, Samantha and Billy are the best and I give them the highest accolades for making her feel comfortable enough to try scuba, for being safety oriented and accommodating to their customers, this will not be the last time I dive with this shop.

Again, for those that want to relax and enjoy an eco-friendly island/country, where the people are friendly, not harassing you for money or to buy souvenirs, and the natural beauty of the tropical forest, rivers, and coral reefs hasn’t been polluted, this is the place.

“BOOKED 3 NIGHTS, STAYED 14!!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 March 2011

people found this review helpful

My wife and I, after reading reviews of various accomodations in Dominica on TRIP ADVISOR, thought the TITIWI an adequate place to stay for the beginning of our 14 days in DOMINICA.. After the first night in the ocean front EMERALD POOL room, we decided to stay for 10 nights and then move on for the last 4... Why? Because it was perfect!!!!..First, our hosts, Janet and Keith were delightful and guided us to great local restaurants and were ever helpful with information about this incredibly beautiful island..As for the location of the TITIWI, it was on the main road, only a short 20 minute walk to Roseau, the Capitol.. And, more importantly, one can easily reach any part of the island's natural sights within a 2 hour drive..
So, after a few more days, we realised that there was no point going anywhere else, and decided to remain at the TITIWI for the full 14 days..
As for the room, all we can say is that it was first rate..Our balcony over looked the Caribbean, so close one felt you could dive in from our room..The pool below us was refreshing to cool off in after a day of sightseeing.. Also, fine local restaurants were within a 5 minute stroll down the road.. Beds were super comfortable and the bathroom was clean and everything functioned well..Our door opened to a comfortable living room, just off a fully equipped kitchen where we prepared breakfast each morning..

And one final note. One evening Janet prepared a sumptuous dinner for us of local fare including fresh fish, local veggies, and a pumpkin soup that was absolutely delicious..

We highly recommend the TITIWI..Yes, we plan to return some day..

Thank you, Janet and Keith!!!!

“Excellent choice for vacation or business stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 March 2011

person found this review helpful

Very happy we stayed here for our 3+ weeks on Dominica while working/playing. Owners/managers Janet and Keith are very pleasant and extraordinarily helpful, really helping to set the Titiwi apart from other nearby accommodation options. Excellent choice for families or groups, even for solo traveler or a couple. Kitchen gave us much more freedom to plan our activities (scuba diving, whale-watching, fishing, hiking, etc.) as we wished, rather than having to set things up around restaurant hours, etc.

“Two thumbs up for Titiwi Inn”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2010
1
person found this review helpful

Titiwi Inn was one of the highlights of our trip to Dominica. It was clean, affordable and within walking distance to all the activities of interest, aside from hiking excursions. The owners, Keith and J, made us feel completely at home and served as a wonderful resource to our many questions. Our room was spacious, had a private bathroom, air-conditioning and a balcony that overlooked the ocean. Aside from breakfast, we didn’t eat at the inn much so I can’t offer many comments on the quality of the meals, but certainly heard no complaints from the other patrons. I thought the prices were more than reasonable, but do keep in mind there is a fee for meals, drinks and other services like laundry or touring the island.

Since we had never stayed at a guesthouse before, my wife and I were slightly nervous. However, once Keith greeted us at the door, our fears evaporated. He took us in, introduced us to his wife, offered us a drink, showed us around and explained the meals and amenities. I actually found staying at a guest house to be better than staying at a hotel, not only because of the lower prices, but because it provided us with access to two knowledgeable and friendly locals who knew the highlights of the island. Since we're divers, he worked with the best dive shop on the island, AlDive, and arranged to have us picked up on dive days. When we wanted to explore the island and do some light hiking, he drove us around for three to four hours for the fair price of $35 per person. When we wanted to do some more strenuous hiking, he offered to help us find a guide (guides are a requirement on the island for tourists).

If you are like us and have never stayed at a guesthouse before, I would compare staying at Titiwi Inn to staying with a friend, who may or may not have some other friends over at the time. For us, it couldn't have been more perfect!

“Great Value, Great People”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2010
2
people found this review helpful

The Titiwi felt very much like a European-style guesthouse. It is located just outside of Roseau. We stayed there for two nights. It is a great location if you are looking to go snorkeling or scuba diving or head up into the Roseau valley to see waterfalls. Janet and Keith (the owners) were very friendly and extremely helpful. The bed we slept on was the most comfortable one we found during our stay in Dominica. We stayed at some much more expensive places in Dominica, but the Titiwi was my favorite. I highly recommend. The service there was excellent.
