Here's what some of our guests had to say about us. If you would like to add your comments after staying at Juliana;s Hotel, please email us. Carl Erik Anderson. Jeff Chris Johnson. Thanks for making our stay such a great experience. We loved the breakfasts, the special lunches for our dive trips, the Saba Spice and your hospitality. The diving was great. I would highly recommend Sea Saba and their crew. I appreciate you working with us when we had to change our travel plans to accommodate the risky weather. We will be back some day. Wayne Anne (June 2005). For those of you that have never had the opportunity to visit Saba, the following is a synopsis of what you are missing. My wife and I arrived at the Saba airport via Winair. You haven;t lived until you land and take off from Saba. We were greeted by a friendly customs and immigration agent and then to our waiting taxi driver Garvis. Saba is a Dutch Island with approximately 1500 residents. It is 5 square miles of volcanic rock. Hilly would be an understatement. Garvis dropped us at Juliana;s where we would be staying during our visit. We are met by Johanna and Wim the owners who show us to our room and give us a quick tour. Imagine no room keys needed, no crime on Saba. Nestled in the lush hillside this old world style resort is a great place to stay. With a pool, hot tub, restaurant and honor system beverage refrigerator this is a great place to spend your time when not under the water or hiking the many nature trails of the island. After our tour of the resort Wim takes us for a short walk to Sea Saba our dive operator. There we are greeted by Lynn who actually put this package together for us. We complete all of the paperwork and are scheduled to do two nitrox dives each day for the next three days. After spending some time with Lynn off we go to look around and get our bearings. The first evening we choose to dine at the Swinging Doors. Here we enjoy the Friday night BBQ of chicken, ribs or a combo. Food was delish and the bill was twenty-five dollars including gratuity. Saturday morning we grab a quick breakfast, which is included in our package and our taxi arrives at 8:45 sharp to take us down to the dock to get the dive boat. (About 1000 feet down) There Steve and guy are awaiting our arrival. After a short thorough briefing of the boat and procedures off we go to the outer limits. This is a deep pinnacle with tons of marine life. Sea Saba allows you to do your own thing if you like on your computer so we just enjoyed the scenery. Large schools of wrasse, clinging crabs, lobster eels and much more. After our dive we moved to a more protected area for our surface interval and then we hopped in to dive Babylon. This is a shallower dive and again plenty to keep you occupied. After our second dive it was back to the dock. All our gear stayed on the boat so it would be ready for tomorrow. Manny our taxi driver was waiting at the dock to take us back to Juliana;s. One thing you have to be careful of is hiking some of the trails after diving as altitude could be an issue. Saturday we select the Ecolodge for dinner. This amazing place is in the middle of the rainforest. They grow all of the vegetables and use no electricity. We ate by candlelight and enjoyed a very tasty meal. The coconut shrimp is great. Our taxi driver provided us with a flashlight so we could navigate our way out of the rainforest and he was waiting when we emerged. Sunday same deal and we dove twilight zone and saw tiger shark which, we were informed is not a common sight here. Second dive was Ladder Labyrnith, shallower and a little current kicked up during the dive. Sunday night we enjoyed the Buddy night at the Tropics Cafe at Juliana;s. This unique idea is the brain child of Wim and Johana and is for divers only on the island. For twenty dollars we had beef, chicken or tuna barbeque, corn on the cob and salad as well as an open bar. We all got to mingle and there were around forty divers all enjoying the evening. Monday morning we headed out to the pinnacles and found too much current so we chose to dive tedra wall. Very nice, deep lots of marine life and several rays. Second dive was tent reef and the turtles were all over. This is a very cool shallow dive. Unfortunately this was our last dive for this trip so the staff at Sea Saba brought our gear back to Juliana;s for us. Not bad. Monday evening Sea Saba presents a side show at the Brigadoon restaurant. A brief presentation talks about the history of Saba as well as the marine environment. The photos discovery channel quality. After the presentation we stayed and enjoyed dinner with another diver (Bud) from Duluth Minnesota. Bud was a very accomplished photographer and well traveled. We truly enjoyed the meal. (Bud picked up the tab. Those meals always taste better) Tuesday we relaxed and headed to the airport for our afternoon departure. Anyone looking for a great place to escape to should check out Saba. Inexpensive, friendly, clean and very nice diving. Lynn and John at Sea Saba really operate a first class dive operation and in conjunction with Juliana;s make this a no stress trip. Check them out at and www.julianas-hotel.com. Louis Jane Anders (December 2004). Just wanted to let you guys know how much we enjoyed our stay. Juliana's is the place to stay on Saba. Your Staff are first class and the scenery is unbelieveable. Thanks again for being so nice and helpful. Lauren Curry (July 2004) I wanted to thank you for a wonderful stay at Juliana's. Everyone was very cordial and helpful and I thank you for the special attention Tod and I received while there. Being a flat-lander Floridian, I was 'awe' of the island and the way of life you all have there. Truly a paradise that I am thankful I got to share and I appreciate you sharing it with us. Please tell Wim thank you for the hospitality and all for being such great hosts. Michael and Mary Day (March 2004) Just wanted to drop an email to say Thanks for a wonderful stay at Juliana's. You have got to be the best show on the island. Thank You. Albert Tims (March 2004) IT WAS WONDERFUL -- everything we had hoped for -- and more :-). We will most certainly become return visitors to Saba and we'll send our friends planning trips to the region to you. Flossie's Cottage is a treasure -- seeing the Floral Cottage framed in the window on a foggy morning while having coffee was like living in a story book :-). The collection of old black and white photos Johanna has on the walls helps emphasize the unique history of the island. I have some great photos of the cottage, if you'd like some for your collection :-). Overall, we were thrilled with Juliana's management, hospitality and the accommodations. A+ Lynn at Sea Saba sets the Gold Standard for arrangements and service! Every diver we spoke with confirmed how well they were treated and how pleased they were with her and with the overall quality of the operation. The dive boats and creature comforts on the boats weren't specially noteworthy, but many of the dive sites were unlike anything we've ever seen. We'd never confuse Saba with anywhere else :-).The dive crews were friendly, efficient. eager to help and skilled. We were always given the option of following along with the dive leader or doing buddy dives -- when the conditions permitted. We liked he emphasis on slow ascents after the deep dives. They've mastered the art of keeping an eye on the brood without getting in the way of individual discovery :-). We'd wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sea Saba to our family and friends, nor would we hesitate to use them again. A+ Given the size of the island, we were amazed that we had so many nice options for meals. We had lovely dinners at Tropics, Y2K, Brigadoon, Swinging Doors and an absolutely amazing dinner at the Eco-Lodge. Lynn gave us perfect knowledge about how to get the best out of the dining options. Quite honestly, o...
