Intimate and charming. My husband and I spent 8 nights here. Our room was airy, comfortable and had a spectacular view. We slept with windows wide open. Linda and staff were gracious, warm and helpful in a relaxed, casual way. Linda helped us book excursions and was a wealth of knowledge about the island. The service and atmosphere were outstanding, but never pretentious.

Great snorkeling from the property (although you do have to climb down a long stairway to the water). Lovely grounds and patio and a small pool to soak in after hiking or snorkeling.

Food was good - we ate most of our dinners there. Lots of fresh local fruit for breakfast.

It is secluded - we were glad we had rented a car. We are returning for a week in 2006.

Zandoli Inn was nothing short of perfect. Linda and her team do a terrific job making guests feel comfortable and vary at home. Breakfast and dinner at the inn were great ways to start and end extremely active days. The views from the Inn are absolutely breathtaking and give the feeling of extreme relaxation. Linda set us up for the day long hike to the Boiling Lake with a tremendous guide- forget his name- and packed us a lunch to eat along the way. This is the Carribbean as I imagine it was before the large hotels and clubs opened up on many other islands. If you are looking for a relaxing, yet active vacation where you can really get away from it all, this is the spot. Highly recommended.

My only regret about our visit to Dominica was that it didn't last longer. The inn and property are amazing. Great snorkeling off the shore below the inn. Linda, Marlise and the animals made our visit even more enjoyable. The food is incredible as well as the company and conversation shared over dinner. Don't miss the hike to the Boiling Lake. We can't wait to return to this absolute heaven on earth!

Zandoli Inn offers a quaint, tranquil setting in which to relax- very tasteful rooms/decor - fabulous overall architecture/design maximizing property. Right on site there is snorkling, "lite" trails, sitting pool and sunset. Great hosts, guests and conversation. Fairly easy assess to the top island hikes, easier access to Roseau and scuba/whalewatching. Island is lush and rugged - for serious hikers and scuba divers as well as very adventureous travelers
