House rentals with a pool

Hibiscus Haven with pool access and amazing view
Fantastic view. Hot water. AC in bedroom, washer, quiet neighborhood, pool. What more can you ask for? I recommend a car. but we are able to take public busses daily from close by. Harry and Tina were extremely helpful in all ways, including holding our bags after check out so we could enjoy it last day before the afternoon ferry.. Great stay, will stay here again.

Sibouli Lodge
We spent 5 days in Siboulu Lodge. It was just the break we needed. The apartment is in the rainforest, surrounded by lush vegetation. We spent hours on the porch just enjoying the forest view. The apt. was clean, quiet, and well stocked with spices, pans, and other needs for cooking. Cecile greeted us with a loaf of fresh bread upon arrival (yum!). We had been traveling for several hours and appreciated this treat. She gave us excellent tips for where to explore and how to get around. Make sure to read her guide before you arrive as she had answers for pretty much everything we could think of and this helped us settle in quickly. Her fur babies (Nori the dog and 2 cats) kept us company. We loved this! Another way the lodge felt like home. The apt. is in a good location and we were able to see all we hoped to see. Thank you for a lovely and peaceful visit!

3-Bedroom Home with Pool!
Great stay at Noelize and Ryan's. we didn't miss anything. The nearby convenience store and buses always available were a huge help to us throughout our stay. I highly recommend this home as a base for discovering Dominica.

Villa Vista
This house is simply stunning. The views are the best we have ever had at any Airbnb. The outdoor patio and pool is a great place to spend some time. The rooms were all large and clean and had everything we needed. You can’t beat the views! The local town of Calibishie has some nice waterfront restaurants and a cool vibe. The surrounding area is amazing to explore, Batibou Bay is one of the most beautiful beaches we have been to. Felt like a castaway on a deserted island. The host was friendly and responsive and kindly allowed us a late checkout which was much easier with our two kids.

Bellevue Estate, Giraudel
There aren’t enough words to describe how special this experience was. Even with my delayed arrival, Trudy and Rudolf greeted me at the gate with open arms and made me feel instantly at home. Trudy stayed in touch throughout my visit, always making sure I had everything I needed. Her care and thoughtfulness made all the difference. The gardeners were kind, and every encounter on the property felt warm and genuine. Trudy, Rudolf, and Lieuwkje were the most wonderful hosts—they even took me on a series of beautiful garden tours. The home was even more stunning in person. Each morning, I enjoyed my coffee while watching hummingbirds flutter by. I saw countless rainbows from the balcony, and even the rain added to the magic—each day felt more peaceful than the last. It was hard to say goodbye, and I’m already looking forward to returning. Thank you, Trudy, Lieuwkje, and Rudolf, for making my stay unforgettable. I miss you already and can’t wait to come back.

3-Bedroom/2-Bath Main House at Rainbow Hill Villa
Fantastic, spacious villa with beautifull view. Good location close to Roseau and all the attractions. Good kitchen, nice terrace and very comfortable beds. It is very private and quiet, I can highly recommend staying in this beautifull villa!

Mango Dream Guest House
We had an unbelievably good stay and the Mango Dream House. Valarie was very friendly and responsive at our arrival. The house was spacious, clean, comfy with an outstanding view. I cannot recommend this house enough! Thank you Valarie for your warm welcome :)

Stunning 6-bed villa with pool & sea view
This magnificent house filled us, we were 11 friends and we were far from crowded! The view, the space, the quality of the accommodation, the pool, you can go there without so much as a second thought! Adam is a very responsive host, and we wanted to especially thank Mike who is the person who takes care of the hosting of the house, who is a lovely and very helpful person, he was very receptive to our questions and requests, so a big thank you!

S & C Dwelling
Had a great stay at Sheren’s! Check in was easy and it is a great location!

Travellers Villa (Upper Floor) Awaits You!
It was a lovely place with nice amenities and extremely helpful hosts. Susan and Joyce were very responsive, going above and beyond to provide helpful information about the location and the layout ahead of the stay to make sure it was convenient for our purposes. The house itself was secure and clean. Full air conditioning was very welcome given the heat and humidity, and the units cooled off each room quite quickly. Everything was prepared very nicely for us, from linens and soaps to general cleanliness. We rented the 4-bedroom unit, which is on the second floor above a 3-bedroom unit; they are both separated so we had a whole unit to ourselves, including separate entrances (after a shared driveway). Overall it was a very nice and friendly stay.

Cottage Haven Escape
Lovely place! We stayed two nights in Patricia's house visiting the north west of the island. Very well located. No so far from the town but in a calm neighbouhood Patricia's family were so welcoming and helpful. They gave us a lot of recommendations for eating, drinking and visiting places around the house. I can only recommend to stay here!

Kai Dou
Jina and her place were phenomenal. Way before we even arrived, she took meticulous care to ensure that every little thing was taken care of for us. She wanted us to feel like we were still at home and she totally accomplished that. My family and I would recommend anything hospitality related to Jina anytime and we recommend anyone to stay with her too. Thank you Jina and we're looking forward to seeing you again upon returning to Dominica!!!

Tex Hill Ocean View Retreat
The house is beautiful and very clean. Was a little difficult to find and up a very steep hill but very nice.

Beautiful Modern Caribbean Oasis
We had a pleasant stay. The apartment is very clean, spacious and well equipped. It is also located next to a main axis. The village is quiet and peaceful. Hosts are super welcoming and attentive. I really recommend it. Thanks to Sarah, Karine and Daniel.

Dominica, Mero, Casablanca ocean view rental
Our days at Casablanca were simply perfect! Very friendly and helpful hosts, who not only welcomed us warmly but also provided us with great tips. Casablanca is perfectly situated for excursions to the island - from here you can easily reach all the many places worth seeing! The house has a breathtaking view of the sea, is very well equipped, clean and simply cosy! Highly recommended!

Kubawi Beach Cottage
We loved our week here! Sitting on the balcony listening to or watching the ocean, only feet from the waters edge was idyllic! The house has a beach hut vibe, and we loved the quirky aspects, such as washing up outside the window where the sink was mounted, and showering underneath the house- especially convenient for coming in sandy! Clarkey has put a stong fan in the mezzanine and we had no trouble sleeping, though during the day we didnt sit up there, as it does get hot. The house is well equipped, for two or three people, everything is very cosy- which we loved. I would not recommend this lovely place for small children or older people ( we are in our 60's- so not old!) as the stairs, inside and out, might be tricky- but fun for those of us who still have knees and balance! The parking space is very handy, though care must be taken as its close to the wall edge. We managed it! If, like us, you prefer something a little different, and love the sea, this is perfect!

"Kai Famille" A Magical Oasis
The area this airbnb is in took our breath away…the scenery from the front porch was truly surreal. We found the accommodations comfortable with nice/unique decor. The added touch of freshly picked bananas/ice and water and the offer for us to help ourselves to fresh grown produce in their garden was a pleasant surprise. Loved the location for proximity to what we needed. We hope to book again upon our next arrival in Dominica!! On a side note…host was responsive and welcoming.

Sari Sari Falls Villa
This is hands-down one of the best, if not the best Airbnb I've ever had the pleasure of staying at: the house is gigantic, beautiful and very well-equipped (blender, grill, oven, cutlery, washing machine, etc), and the beds are extremely comfortable. It is located in a very quiet part of town, and it felt as if our only neighbors were cows and goats. As for Petter and Gemma, they were absolutely wonderful hosts: pleasant, very knowledgeable and extremely reactive, they've even helped us find a rental car in the nick of time when our initial plan fell through. I'm looking forward to staying at theirs again the next time I come to Dominica.

Paradise place
David is very friendly and the house is spacious and peaceful. There were 6 of us and very comfortable. Second stay at David's place with two different groups, and all satisfied. Recommended. We'll be back of course

3 Bedroom upper floor Apartment.
It's always a pleasure to stay at Doreen's. I highly recommend it and will definitely be back.

Eden On The Rocks - Ocean Villa
Absolutely recommend, Eden on the Rocks was the perfect home-base for us on our incredible trip in Dominica! The location was a dream, private and overlooking a gorgeous view and just a walk away to a swimmable, nearly private beach. We loved the ability to go out and explore the island and then return to our own slice of paradise in the evenings. The house itself is a relatively close drive from the airport which made our travels so much easier and stress free. Brynmore and Julia were fantastic hosts, providing excellent communication and everything we needed and awesome recommendations for our trip. Bonus points for Brandy the dog who lives on the property and is the sweetest!

Kai Morne Macak
Excellently located in the middle of must-see sites (waterfalls, lakes and small gorges (Titou gorges for the intimate)) we really understood Einstein's relativity. The weather and spaces are different, beautiful, warm, warm, quiet, exotic… A moment in the mountain in an amazing accommodation with an adorable hostess. It's not a recommendation, it's an invitation to travel.

Cumberland Cottage
Annette and her husband were exceptional hosts! we loved every second of our stay and was made to feel like our home away from home. we must also mention the view from the balcony....it is unlike any other, absolutely breathtaking. Could not ask for a better view in the morning. They were quite helpful and accommodating and we're very happy we choose them. We will definitely be visiting again and would certainly recommend you do the same. thanks again Annette!

Windsor Apartment, Goodwill
Excellent place to stay, Ms. Cora was just outstanding. She took cared of everything to make my trip go as smooth as possible…. Couldn’t ask for more!
