Our trip recreated memories of my childhood, the beach, fishing on the pier, moodlight swimming, raindrops on the cabin roof. The most amazing thing the cabin afforded was the opportunity to clean and prepare the catch (fish) for dinner. Just extra ordinary. Definitely a spot with t.he ambience of the scene in the days when pirates roam the caribbean. The... More

We stayed on Dominica for well over a week and stayed at three places. We upgraded from the Portsmouth Beach Hotel to the Picard Beach Cottages and we should have done this much sooner. These are nice little cottages right along the beach, with a row of cottages behind those that have a direct view of the ocean. The cottages... More

Stayed there for just one night. As another review noted - it is pricey. But if you're into the rustic, LOST (yup, the TV series) vibe, this is your place. But it was a little too rustic for me. Highlight was the mouse that was dancing on my bathroom sink. Staff are amazing though. Top class customer service from a... More

I actually reserved a room at the Portsmouth Beach Hotel and was very pleasantly surprised when they put us in the adjacent cottages. It was during off-season and they said they are willing to offer the cottages at discounts to those who ask. The cottages were basic but clean and comfortable. We rented snorkels for a half day at a... More

I was here in August 2011 but under the title 'when did you stay..." it won't give me that option so I said June because despite all the bad reviews about the state of repair the whole place must have been renovated because I didn't see it. Everything was clean, staff were very polite and helpful. The students were on... More

We had a superior beach cottage. I cannot image what the others were like because our accommodations were horrible. The cottage was in a state of disrepair, as was the entire facility. Several examples are as follows: 1. Florescent lighting in living area and bedroom 2. Broken and filthy beach chairs on our deck and in front of our cottage.... More

We stayed here for four nights in early June. There were only two other cottages occupied, so it was a quiet and serene vacation. The AC had to work pretty hard, but we were cool enough. BUT ---- returning home our VISA bill had a $54 charge on it, separate from our deposit and final charges at check out. I... More

I lived in Dominica for two years and know the place well. Picard Beach Cottages are a great bargain (economy accomodations are tough to find in DA) and aare wonderfully comfy place to stay. The beach as a stones throw away yet the place is quite private. The staff was great and the cottages are very comfortable/clean. Wish I was... More

We came to visit our son who is attending Med School and this was the closest hotel to stay at within walking distance. We stayed in one of the cottages and the view was fantastic, nice to have porch to relax at night, but surprised at the accomodations. The cottage could be very nice if they were updated. Holes in...
