Gingerbread Hill

Top choice in Montserrat


Created by David and Clover Lea, American hippie transplants and devoted Montserrat champions, this charismatic hilltop refuge consists of four artistically decorated self-catering units with spacious verandas and sublime ocean views surrounded by gorgeous gardens. The crown jewel is the Heavenly Suite with a rooftop terrace and views for miles. The Sweet & Simple room downstairs is Montserrat's best budget pick.
