Each top rated stay in Montserrat is hand picked and checked for sustainability features.

We look at how the property actually sources its energy, like Gingerbread Hill running its hand built villas on solar power across its three secluded acres above St. Peter’s.

We analyse the water conservation, like The Clubhouse running off grid on collected rainwater by the sea at Little Bay.

We verify where the food comes from, like Gingerbread Hill growing its own produce in hydroponic gardens and fruit trees and keeping the family’s own chickens.

We also look at the property’s wider impact, like The Clubhouse being female and locally owned by Montserratian entrepreneur Veta Wade and home to her Fish ‘N Fins marine conservation non profit, which has taught hundreds of island children to swim and snorkel and supports the Montserrat Turtle Action Plan.

The guest house and eco lodge on this list of best places to stay in Montserrat have proven they are making a real effort to protect the island while taking care of its guests.

If the Emerald Isle of the Caribbean has stirred your taste for volcanic peaks and easy green calm, our guide to the best sustainable hotels across the Caribbean gathers the whole region in one place, or hop a short way north to the eco stays of St Kitts and Nevis, look northeast to nearby Antigua and drift north up the chain to Guadeloupe.
