Unique, special, and a thesaurus of words after that do not quite come close. First, be prepared as it is small. 8 rooms. Staff is attentive and the managers very efficient and helpful. Only one meal during the whole week was not up to par. Note: prices are island prices; almost everything comes in from far away. Peaceful and sedate during the day turns into fun bar scene at about 5 pm when all the yacht folks pull up in their dingy. Best fun: watching them, when a bit tipsy, try to get back into the dingy. Also, if the bar area gets to warm in the sun around 5, just take your drinks to the other side of the tiny island and sit on the deck and enjoy the breeze. We took the Saba Rock ferry to the beach at Prickly Pear. Be wary when the cruise ships are in as they 'take over' this beach. Otherwise you will have it mostly to your self. I recommend going to Bitter End for snorkeling trips or sailing lessons. Swimming directly off of Saba Rock is possible but awkward. Secret: if you can (and it is pricey) take the Caribbean Buzz chopper directly from St. Thomas airport to Saba Rock. It was a highlight of our week there.
