Romantic Tropical Hideaway - Birds & Bees Cottage

Birds & Bees Cottage, as the name implies is a romantic stone cottage with shingle roof trimmed with white gingerbread. It has a king sized 4 poster bed draped in netting, antique furniture, a huge 30' x 8' verandah with a hammock for those afternoon naps. Lovely views across the tropical garden filled with an assortment of flowers and trees with many birds flitting through. There is a palm fringed pool shared with Sapodilla cottage also in the 2 acre garden. Both cottages are very private and peaceful and well separated from each other. I ask a minimum of 5 nights.

A Natural Hideaway
A delightful blend of nature and comfort. Beautiful cottage (Birds n' Bees) with lots of gorgeous tropical flora... and plenty of fauna! The birds are all around, so if you don't like birds, this place is NOT for you! The hosts have fitted the cottage with modern conveniences, drinking water, fully equipped kitchen, and king-size netted bed. A bottle of Antigua Rum was waiting for us upon our arrival. We hated to leave!

Birds & Bees Cottage is Heaven
This is our 3rd stay at Birds & Bees Cottage - 2 weeks each time, we have spent a total of a month and a half here and we love it more each time. Birds & Bees is special as it's an eco-home where you not only have a view of the harbor but also get to interact with all the best island nature including hummingbirds, a tortoise, a variety of other birds that will sing to you, beautiful lizards, horses, and 3 beautiful dogs. We love the cool breezes that come off the water right up and through to our bedroom and living space. We made the best meals in our galley kitchen with everything we need right there. Janie & Geoff were (and are always) so gracious and accommodating and will offer you every thing you need. When you arrive they have wonderful local fruits, juices, breads, coffee and even rum all there awaiting your arrival! But the best part for us is the beautiful pool with a gazebo where you can relax with a beverage, nap, swim short laps, commune with nature, or read a book all with the best view on the island!

By the end of the first day, we were already planning a return visit. After that, we just sat back, relaxed and let the natural beauty of the property and the surroundings wash over us. This really is a magical place. Janie and Geoffrey are wonderful hosts, and our daily doggie visits were a cherished part of our vacation routine. We will be back - soon and often.

Magical Property!
This was our second time staying at Janie and Geoffrey's stunning property (April 2023). Please read my detailed review from last year (Feb. 2022, published on March 4, 2022). This time Janie accommodated our extended family of five adults and two young grandchildren. Just like a year ago everything was wonderful. We had both cottages, Birds 'N Bees and Sapodilla, as well as a spacious bedroom suite. Our favourite spot was the pool and gazebo area (for our sole use). It is surrounded by beautiful plants, flowers, and palm trees with stunning views in the distance of Falmouth Harbour. This area also has excellent Wifi. The cottages are charmingly furnished with comfortable beds, lovely linens, mosquito netting over every bed, and well equipped kitchens. This time we rented a large Toyota van which held all seven of us. A rental vehicle is necessary as the grocery shops and restaurants in English Harbour and Falmouth Harbour are a short drive away (not walkable distance). The road up to Janie's property is rough but you do get used to it. With such a large group and two children Janie graciously allowed us the use of her large washing machine on a couple of occasions. We drove to Pigeon Point Beach (twice), Half Moon Bay, Galleon Beach, Dutchman's Bay, and Runaway Bay. The three younger adults in our group hiked to Rendezvous Bay twice from Janie's property - a 30 minute hike and well worth it. We took in Stingray City and Laviscount Island (giant tortoises) which the children loved. We also highly recommend the Creole Lobster Lunch Catamaran Cruise which starts from Jolly Harbour. There are many great restaurants in the area. A great take out pizza place is Famous Mauro's Pizza which is just a short drive away (wood-fired brick oven pizza). Overall another amazing holiday in Antigua which was made very special by our hosts, Janie and Geoffrey, and their magical property. Wendy C.

No screens, no AC, no TV. Perfect host, view and best of all breeze. Just the simple pleasures. It’s close to English Harbor, Shirley Heights, horseback riding, restaurants, grocery store, liquor store, ice cream, hiking, beaches. Janie’s place is the antidote in this fast pace, immediate satisfaction world. Not for everyone but perfect for Mark and me. Thanx Janie

We loved being visited by the resident dogs, all with their own super characteristics. Janie and Geoffrey are such wonderful and interesting people and could not have been more helpful to us.

Antigua relaxation
If you are looking for a relaxing vacation spot with awesome views, this is your spot. Very nice pool and gazebo - views from pool can't be beat! Cottage is also quite comfortable, and we had no issues. Hosts are very accommodating and friendly, there if you need something and not if you don't. We believe the English Harbour area is some of the nicest on Island. Many choices for eating out (Sweet Ts a favorite local) many spots in/near the harbor. And you can hike (drive if adventurous) to Rendezvous Bay (my favorite spot) and pretty much have it to yourself often. In regard to safety or wildlife in cottage, all doors, windows have heavy wooden shutters that can be closed and locked/deadbolted. We did at night for light and to mask the tree frog sound, otherwise open and let the breeze come thru. The dogs do a great job of protecting the place but also don't bother you if you don't want them around. We came in on Sat. and it was Weds afternoon before we realized we didn't have a T.V.!!! For that alone it's worth it . Great value, stay, experience.

All the people we met on site were very welcoming and there was a very good welcome pack. The grounds and pool area are lovely The fact that the doors and windows were always open for the breeze it felt a little insecure leaving out valuables there when we went out and similarly at night as the gates never seem to be locked

Careful what you wish for.
I would just like to point out that obvious-That ALL of the local wildlife will be sharing the space with you! This is includes lizards, birds, moths, spiders and mosquitoes. Please look up the fauna of Antigua! If this is your thing your stay will be amazing and you will want for nothing ie toiletries, cleaning/cooking products etc. If you're hiring a car then a 4x4 is a must!

Off Season Stay
Fabulous stay at The Birds & Bees cottage last week. Lovely quiet spot with super views from the pool down to Falmouth and English Harbour. Janie was a lovely host - nothing too much trouble and plenty ideas for beaches and hikes. We found the island to be very quiet in October with beaches to ourselves - particularly in the mornings. Recommend the 40 minute hike from the front door up and down to Rendezvous Bay. Sone restaurants closed but the majority open for lunch and happy to accept walk-ins - a favourite of ours was lunch at Boom (opposite Nelson’s Dockyard) and a chill-out on the poolside beds afterwards. We enjoyed the company of the friendly dogs, as well as the humming birds and yellow finches. Only a few sharp showers but otherwise weather was perfect. Accommodation very comfortable and lots of space for the two of us. We’ll be back hopefully soon!

Unique Antiguan Experience
We loved this place, its so fresh and different. It would not be every ones cup of tea but it was certainly ours. The property is so tranquil and full of nature, we loved sitting on the huge veranda and watch the bananaquits and humming birds feed, a couple of birds use to fly through the cottage, so hide the bread!. The cottage is beautifully designed and furnished, really clean and well equipped. The pool and surrounding gardens are a delight. The view from the pool terrace is breath taking. Virginia is a brilliant host, and just wants you to enjoy her corner of Antiguan heaven. The welcome pack was very much appreciated too.

Janie and Geoffrey are great hosts and their property is amazing. We enjoyed the very open aspect of the cottage and the regular visits from the birds and Janie's three dogs. The location is ideal for trips into Falmouth and English Harbours, where there is a wide selection of restaurants. It was a very restful ans relaxing stay and one we would love to repeat.

If you’re looking for total peace and to get away from it all Birds and Bees will tick all the boxes. Janie is there if you need her but also leaves you to it if you want. The views are wonderful, watching the birds on the veranda in the morning with our coffee was a lovely ritual and of course looking out to sea. The cottage is well equipped and cleaned regularly. The dogs were welcomed by us regularly but you have the option not to allow them in. I celebrated my birthday at the Pillars, Admirals Inn at Nelson dock which had wonderful views and staff lovely and good good. Also tried the Caribbean fare at Sandra’s fusion restaurant. Driving was easy and we visited many of the beaches , Pigeon bay was our favourite which had Bumpkins and Catherine’s to get food and drink in at lunch time. Supermarket where we’ll stock but don’t expect Sainsburys standards, all good organic I believe. We definitely recommend Birrds and Bees and the lovely, elegant Janie Go Go Go!!!!

Home away from home
This is one of the loveliest and most relaxing places we have ever stayed. The beauty of nature surrounding us amazed us every morning as we awoke to the birds twittering or the doves cooing. This is hard to write because there is so much to say. We felt as though we had been transported to a gentler and kinder time which was exactly what we needed after the turmoil of the last 2 years. And the pool! I rose up after floating peacefully and really felt I had been transported to another place and time. We rented a car as we were there for 2 weeks..a four-wheel drive is a recommendation. You are only 10 minutes from English and Falmouth harbors with wonderful places to dine or just relax to the views. The hosts are incredible and you will see them if you want. We wanted because they too were wonderful people. We can't wait to get back there. Oh dear...I almost forgot our best buddies. Janie has 3 dogs who are loving and fun to be with. They helped us feel as if we had found home in Antigua.

An absolute delight!
We were fortunate enough to stay at Janie and Geoffrey's beautiful property for two weeks in February. The large cottage has everything you will need for a very comfortable stay. It is clean, very comfortable bed (king size), large verandah with comfortable sitting and dining areas, charmingly furnished, and private. The kitchen is well supplied and Janie leaves provisions for breakfasts and snacks. The Wifi works very well from the cottage, verandah, and pool area. The pool is a delight - beautifully surrounded by bougainvillea, palm trees and other indigenous plantings. The pool is also very private and shared only by one other couple whom you rarely see. The other smaller cottage (Sapodilla) is also well out of sight of 'Birds & Bees' so there is lots of privacy. Hummingbirds, bananaquits, turtle doves, and others entertain you on your verandah. Janie's three gentle dogs also pay you visits if you wish. If you have questions while there (or before you arrive) communication is great with Janie. All emails were returned very quickly. The road leading to 'Birds & Bees' is rough, however, we were encouraged to rent a vehicle which was a little higher off the road (a Toyota Rav 4) and with slow and careful driving had no issues. A rental car is essential to get into Falmouth and English Harbour (a short drive away). There is no air conditioning but it is not needed. A tall floor fan and an over-the-bed ceiling fan kept us very comfortable. The trade-winds coming in all windows and doors are lovely too. We so enjoyed our peaceful, tranquil visit to beautiful Antigua and hope to return soon. Thank you Janie and Geoffrey!!

Top Ten Reasons to Book
1. The owners are unbelievably welcoming and friendly. 2. You are already half way up the hill on the trail to Rendezvous bay. 3. The dogs visit you every day, multiple times. 4. The birds fly through your cottage. 5. The plants and trees are amazing. 6. The view from the pool is beautiful. 7. You sleep with the windows and doors open. It’s almost like camping, except way more comfortable. 8. It is only 6 mins to Famous Mauro’s Pizza. 9. It is only 5 mins to 268 brewery. 10. See No. 1.

Fabulous and Chilled out break
Fabulous cottage and location in close proximity to both Falmouth and English Harbour. Janie and Geoffrey were very gracious hosts throughout my stay and were close by if there were queries but also left you to explore on your own. I appreciated the opportunity to drop my bags with my earlier than planned arrival due to the very early BA flight and efficient COVID process at the airport. The cottage and garden is as described and the pictures don't do it justice and its a toss up whether sitting on the deck watching the hummingbirds or lounging by the pool admiring the view was the favourite activity of the afternoon. If you're a bit homesick for your dogs, their dogs are always happy to greet you with their doggy smiles and I loved the cuddles and check in's from them. There's the option to use the small gates if you're not a dog fan, but I never once used them as loved getting their visits. Location wise the cottage is in a great spot as only 10 - 15 mins away from Falmouth and English Harbour with its shops and restaurants. Overall a fabulous stay and I'll definitely be back.

The perfect anniversary vacation
Janie’s place, Birds and Bees, is an exceptionally beautiful place with lovely gardens, inviting pool with a scenic view of Falmouth harbor, a pond with chairs that would make you sit there for hours reading and friendly dogs that check on you now and then. My wife and I chose this place to celebrate our 35 the anniversary and we could not have chosen and more memorable vacation destination for 6 days. We were greeted by the most beautiful dogs, friendly and welcoming. The owner Janie gave us so much attention and assistance with settling into the cottage and help us with ideas of nice restaurants, beaches, and local amenities. She then leaves you to enjoy the cottage and we call on her whenever we had to . Our goals were to eat local Antiguan food and the street vendors and restaurants provided that beyond par especially Caribbean Taste restaurant. Covid precaution is strict, which is a huge plus, you must wash your hands, dry with paper towel and sanitize and mask wearing for all stores and even the street vendors also had the same requirements. The cottage is genuinely nice and airy and always have a cool breeze no need for ac although there are fans, never had any need for them. Kitchen is fully equipped, and Janie was so kind to have coffee, milk, and water available on our arrival. She has a great collection of novels. Bathroom toiletries were provided. Cottage is well lit and one of the safest places I have ever stayed. There are adequate closet space and drawers to store your stuff, so many clothes hangers we never had enough clothes to put on them! Easy access to the main thoroughfare to drive to the capital St Johns or even to get meals at local restaurants and grocery. Many trails to take leisurely walks, bring sneakers as walking early morning or late evening is a great way to explore the many other beautiful scenery. Beautiful white sand beaches all over the island and there are beach chairs located under the bed. Janie surprise us with a bottle of Prosecco for our anniversary. We popped the cork at the pool later that evening. WI Fi works well and there is no TV we never miss it!!! We will be back !!!!

The Very Best
Birds and Bees Cottage is the BEST place to stay in Antigua, hands down! This was our second time staying with Janie and Geoff, and we enjoyed it more than our first visit over two years ago. The cottage itself is roomy and romantic, set amidst abundant tropical flowers on a quiet hillside with a lovely view of Falmouth Harbor in the near distance. Every morning, loquacious birds visited us on the wonderful verandah and we shared our tropical fruit with them (and a few lizards as well). We love the openness of the cottage that is well cooled by the sea breezes wafting up from the harbor below. It’s well located close to English Harbor and all the amenities; and one of the best beaches on Antigua is a short 10-minute drive away. A dip in the pool is a fantastic treat at the end of a long day exploring, and its airy gazebo on a high vantage point has great views of the harbor and surrounding area. It’s so relaxing to get some shade, read or take a nap there. The grounds are lovely overall, and since our last stay, Janie and Geoff installed a beautiful pond on the property with blooming flowers. Janie and Geoff are long-time residents of Antigua and can advise on things to do, best beaches, provisions, and restaurants. On arrival, our kitchen was generously equipped with enough food and drink to ensure we could put off a trip to the grocery store until later – nice after travelling all day to get there. An added bonus for us were visits from the three lovable dogs, since we had to leave ours behind. This property is the quintessential airy and eco VRBO experience we love. Waking every morning to the beauty and simplicity of Birds & Bees, we thankfully forgot our media and other non-essential needs, which we gratefully left behind. The wi-fi works great in the house and at the pool so it’s easy to catch up on a tablet or phone. We were so sad to say goodbye but dream of the day when we can return again!
