Hosts/staff were amazingly hospitable, food great, excellent location. I’d definitely come back here.
Pros:

El Momo is located in a beautiful (and yes, steep) spot. The views from every part of the property are stunning. My cabin was not as small as I expected, based on other reviews. And breakfast was excellent. I appreciated some of the nice touches - honesty bar, books and raincoats available etc.

Cons:

There’s nothing I did not like, but potential visitors should know it is on the rustic side, albeit with all the conveniences.

Cottage we had was good, view was great, but think about climbing so many stairs!
Pros:

Pool area very nice. View from our room was great.

Cons:

about 4 flights of stairs to front desk/pool and then we had the highest room so another 4 flights more. Lots of climbing and a little worrisome when the stairs are wet. We were warned, by the way, in other reviews so it was on us to not realize this. Bathroom was very basic.

Pros:

On a l'impression d'être chez des gens et non dans un hôtel. Faire partie d'une famille

Was there for one night and if you are in Saba I do not recommend at all.
Cons:

The breakfast portions were tiny and far too expensive for what you get. There are many steps to the location and if you have heavy luggage it is a nightmare. Place is okay if you are a backpacker and enjoy eco friendly places. Travel light and bring your own food and alot of bug spray.

Bijzondere plek!
Pros:

Wat een bijzonder plekje met het mooiste uitzicht en zalig rustig. Relaxed, goede, makkelijke sfeer.

Cons:

De klim is best pittig, maar goed van tevoren aangekondigd. De cabins zijn basic, verwacht geen luxe.

Prachtige buitenplek met uitzicht!
Pros:

De ligging is fantastisch. Fijn om buiten te leven. Leuk dat er veel kolibries zijn. Zwembad is schoon en prettig. Trustbar is fijn en erg vriendelijk.

Cons:

Er is veel achterstallig onderhoud. Dat is jammer. Erg gehorig (‘s avonds soms geschreeuw).

Prachtige locatie midden in de natuur met zwembad
Pros:

De rust en de prachtige ligging in de natuur.
Niet bang zijn voor een beestje, maar gewoon genieten van deze fijne accomodatie midden in de natuur van Saba.
Neem niet teveel bagage mee, want je moet wel eat trappen op.
Maar de beloning is groot.
Ook een heel fijn zwembad.

Cons:

Alles was voor ons prima, er viel niets tegen.
Eigenaar Andries heeft vooraf duidelijke informatie verstrekt.
Top locatie!!!

Tolles Erlebnis
Pros:

Der Ausblick von der kleinen eigenen Terrasse aufs Meer und den Sonnenuntergang. Die Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit, wenn man das mag. Wer Komfort sucht ist allerdings falsch.
