I spent three days and two nights at The Banana Tree this month and it was heavenly.

Here are my top 10 reasons to visit Sambaqui and stay at The Banana Tree:
1. It's a quiet location, right on the bay side of the island and in an area that is completely, utterly peaceful.
2. The Banana Tree is a well maintained, modern, spacious and spotlessly clean private home that functions as a year-round guest house. The wonderful hosts are gracious, warm, helpful and easy going. Beverly and Henry arranged for a "driver" to meet me at the airport - and Phil (the "driver") provided me with a great overview of the island and information as we traveled the 20 minutes from the airport to The Banana Tree.

Two of my best friends and I stayed at The Banana Tree Guesthouse in May this year for a week. We ABSOLUTELY loved it! The house is beautifully decorated, each of the bedrooms has it´s own character and we were lucky enough to stay in The Blue Room, which has french doors opening out onto a lovely wooden balcony overlooking the beautiful bay and the famous bridge. Every morning we woke up and had breakfast on the patio about 10 paces from the beach... Apart from being a great place itself the situation of the house is perfect - local shops with fresh bread just across the road, many different restaurants within walking distance offering the delicious local cuisine (we loved the feijao!) and also easy acess to the center of town and the surrounding beaches (which are stunning!). It was very peaceful and we would recommend it to anyone! Couples, groups of friends, families... Ian and Anna are so friendly and will do whatever they can to make your stay a memorable experience! Thanks... more
