“Wonderful!!!!”

My husband and I honeymooned in Salt Cay and stayed at Windmills. It was just amazing. The food is absolutely delicious, the accommodations are gorgeous, and the service is amazing. It is very, very private. The beach is gorgeous and pristine. The snorkeling right in front of the hotel is some of the best we have ever done. Jim and Sharon are very thoughtful and accommodating hosts. Salt Cay is unlike any place we've ever visited. We will definitely return.

“magical place”

What a fantastic spot! 7 rooms, magnificent completely deserted private 1 mile long beach (maybe the best in the Caribbean). The owners Sharon and Jim Shafer make the best food I have ever eaten in the Caribbean. They are the most congenial hosts for a small resort. Excellent snorkelling 300 yeards up the beach, fishing, diving, exploring and relaxing! Wow; The Windmills Plantation just has that special quality of being next to perfect. In 25 years of going to many small resorts in the Caribbean this is the best I have ever been to by a wide margin!

“Windmills Is Just About Perfect”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 February 2004

I just left Windmills Plantation and I am already planning a trip back.
Windmills is pretty near perfect in my opinion. There are only 8 guest rooms, all with lovely views of the sea. The buildings are classic (yet whimsical) and the rooms are very well appointed. The grounds are well kept with a big two mile private beach (in addition to the rest of the little island). Snorkle right off the beach and collect shells galore.
We dived a few days, but there is plenty to do (or not do) besides diving (kayaks, etc). There are plenty of good beach loungers, hammocks and special places to relax like the lovely outdoor living room (rattan couches and big club chairs). Jim and Sharon are your hosts and they take care to make your stay special. The food is INCREDIBLE - everything is made there (including the 10+ desserts offered each night) and special needs are no problem (veggie, lactose intol etc). It was absolutely lovely and peaceful. Highly recommended by a picky New Yorker who has stayed on many islands in the Carribean. Book with confidence.

“absolute paradise!”

Stressed from everyday life?... THIS is the place to go for COMPLETE relaxation! just a few rooms but excellent service and food... not a lot of crowds but a great place to go to completely relax and get away ... this is NOT Nassau with casinos and the crowds but my wife and I enjoyed the complete relaxation. Who would believe that an island only 2 miles wide could be so much fun... beach walks, crystal clear water... I could go on and on... a little difficult to get to but WORTH IT !
