The Caribbean Island of Saba Has a New Hotel
Tiny Saba, the Dutch Caribbean island that’s long been one of the region’s best-kept secrets, has a brand-new hotel.
The new Saba Arawak Hotel just opened its doors on a hillside in the Windwardside area of the island.
Set across four different buildings, instantly the largest hotel on the island, with 24 junior suites and another three one-bedroom suites.
All of the suites have their own private balconies and fully-equipped kitchenettes.
The hotel has spectacular views of the water and surrounding mountains, particularly from its ocean-view pools cape.
The culinary offerings will be led by the owners of popular Saba spot Liam’s Cuisine and Bar, with a mix of Asian and Caribbean dishes.
The hotel joins the recently-rebranded Queen’s Hotel as part of a wave of new hospitality energy on the island.
Last month, five-square-mile Saba eased all of its entry requirements, meaning travelers no need to pre-test or show proof of vaccination to visit the island.
Long dubbed the “Unspoiled Queen,” it’s charming, idyllic getaway just a short flight from nearby St Maarten.
