This is the most beautiful place on the entire island. The gardens are wonderful, the 4 different mineral baths are great, the banana quit sings at dinnner time and peepers put you to sleep. The peacock wakes you up and you can hear the waterfalls all day while you watch the humming birds. There's too much to talk about, the food, the rooms, the people, it's all good.

Cannot say enough about this place. Truly a piece of heaven on earth. You become totally absorbed in the natural beauty around you. Huge tree ferns, hummingbirds, waterfalls, hot mineral baths, orchids, flowers of every color and scent, coco trees, cool mountain breezes. Excellent meals, wonderful local staff, clean nicely arranged rooms. It was very hard to leave this hotel. We will deffinitely go back to Dominica and deffinitely stay at Papillote again.

We just returned from Dominica after spending a relaxing 6 days at Papillote celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. It was better than we expected! It was difficult to leave.

The accomodations are in a rainforest with beautiful gardens all around. The rooms are simple but charming. We had the opportunity to stay in two different rooms and both were nicely appointed and clean. We spent a number of hours just walking around the grounds looking at the different flowers and greenery. You can arrange a tour of the gardens and we saw so much more after Evelyn pointed out to us some of the hidden gems. We enjoyed the different hot mineral pools everyday - sometimes twice in a day! The one we enjoyed the most during the afternoon was the one by the waterfall - it is just a beautiful, picturesque place to relax. If you enjoy being outside in a natural setting you will love this place.

The staff were all very pleasant and helpful. The meals were simply delicious. The omlets were just great - we had to have them again the day that we left. Every morning while we ate we would watch the humming birds at the nearby flowers. For the evening meals there was always a choice and both my husband and I enjoyed whatever we chose. One evening there was a BBQ and I had the most delicious ribs I had ever tasted! Another evening I had a ginger and beef dish that was just scrumptious. The evenings were very enjoyable talking with the other guests and with Anne.

We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful, serene, delicious vacation spot. We stayed in the Breadfruit Suite, which was a huge 3-room suite with wood slat blinds, volcanic spring fed shower, and a hot pool right below our room for our enjoyment. The grounds were a botanical dream of short trails through lush rainforest, hot and cool natural pools, lichen covered stone statues. No mosquitos even though we had no screens. And the restaurant was to die for. Beautiful open air space overlooking the valley that goes down to Roseau. Night creatures singing during dinner and exotic birds singing at breakfast. Very simple fresh foods prepared exquisitely. Not too much food, nor too little. Delicious healthy desserts. I can honestly say I have never felt more relaxed and happy on a vacation than I was when we stayed at the Papillote. Our two boys, aged 13 and 10, thought it was all so cool, even thought there was no TV. Can't say enough good things about the place.
