needed a bit of time and space to figure out what their next move would be and whether it would entail leaving their homeland. Today Gingerbread Hill has become a retreat of a different kind, and it helps to serve people from around the world who come to visit this very special island paradise. The accommodations at Gingerbread Hill cater for everyone and are designed for guests to relax and enjoy the total peace and quiet that makes Montserrat such an idyllic place.

The ‘Heavenly Suite’ sits on top of Gingerbread Hill, with a 360º degree view of the rainforest, mountains and sea. It has a fully equipped kitchen, living room, and charming bedroom with a giant swinging window that allows you to sleep overlooking it all. A spiral staircase leads you from the main verandah to the sunset terrace from which you can enjoy a romantic star-filled night. Below the Suite is ‘The Villa’, a fully equipped home with 2 bedrooms, each with en suite bath. It has a delightful wrap-around verandah, complete with porch swing. The Villa is also wheelchair accessible. Completed in 2008, the ‘Mango Cottage’ is the newest and most innovative lodging space. Mango Cottage is an eco-cottage, completely solar-powered…with no wires attached! The affordable 1 bedroom cottage is equipped to fulfil all the needs of an eco-warrior. And if you thought that it was impossible to visit Montserrat on a tight budget, then this is the place for you. The ‘Backpacker’s Special’ is a one bedroom apartment that costs just $35 USD for one and $45 for two. It is a comfortable apartment with its own entrance, private bathroom and wheelchair access. David says it’s, “Cushier than what one might picture in association with a backpacker’s accommodation, but the price is in keeping with a backpacker’s budget.” Gingerbread Hill is completely covered by Wi-Fi for free Internet access. David, Clover and the ‘FamiLea’ of Gingerbread Hill invite you to come and be among the few people in the world that have had the opportunity to visit and see for themselves what has taken place on this extraordinary paradise island. Witness the rebirth of a truly amazing island!
