From the owner

“Mapoo Villa” is a newly constructed two bedroom vacation villa, high on the Eastern face of Carriacou's highest hill, known as High North. The villa boasts unparalleled views of the village below, the blue- green lagoon behind the white fringed reef, and the islands of Petite Martinique, Petit St. Vincent, Palm Island and the rest of the Grenadines stretching all the way to St. Vincent. On a moonlight night, when the moon rises above Petit Martinique and turns the sea golden, one can only marvel at the spectacular scene below. Plan your vacation for the full moon to enjoy this unimaginable experience.

This home is perfectly positioned to enjoy the constant, cooling, trade-winds, which makes air-conditioning completely unnecessary. With its expansive, hammock-equipped verandah, fully equipped modern kitchen, and thrice-weekly housekeeper/cook service, “Mapoo Villa” is a perfect place to which to escape, but comes with WiFi, TV (not cable) CD player and stereo.... and to enjoy all the tranquility that Carriacou has to offer.

Carriacou (pronounced 'Carry-a-Cou' and meaning Land of Reefs) is an undiscovered paradise, offering the perfect hideaway for those who want to escape the beaten tourist track and are looking for a different holiday experience. It has a natural beauty which adds to its appeal and has often been described by travel writers as an 'uncut diamond'… Visitors to this island gem tend to be well traveled and looking for a different world... and Carriacou does not disappoint.

At just 13 square miles and with a population of approximately 6,000 people, Carriacou is the largest and most Southern island in the Grenadines-- the small island chain between St Vincent and Grenada where some of the most exclusive ... and expensive.. island resort destinations in the world, including Mustique, Palm Island, Canouan and Petit St Vincent, the playgrounds of the rich and famous are scattered.

Mapoo Villa shares over one acre of fully fenced, gated and landscaped grounds with a one bedroom cottage-- Mapoo Cottage....which is also available for holiday rental. This unit is much smaller but shares the same glorious views and cooling breezes. It is ideal for a couple only. It is fully equipped also. Inquire if you are interested.

Although some visitors may seek to stay in or near the main town or a beach, islanders know that the town or beach is only 10 minutes away by bus, taxi or rental car for virtually anywhere, and that the view and cooling breezes on the hillsides are overwhelmingly more important and enjoyable.

We hope that you will choose us for your discovery of Carriacou... we promise to do everything possible to give you an amazing holiday experience.

    A house with an astonishing view

    I can't add more to what already has been said about Mapoo Hill Villa. Everything is just as described, including the lovely smile of Rhona. And yes, you definitively need a car to explore Carria… More

    Dear Marina and Rudi, Thank you very much for your lovely review of our Mapoo Hill Villa. We shall pass your compliments on to Rhona. I enjoyed our brief meeting on the last morning of your stay and it was most gratifying to know that you had enjoyed your stay. Did I gather that you might consider returning one day? Hope so. Best wishes for 2019 and thanks again for your kind review.

    Had a first-rate experience here at Mapou Hill Villa. The view from the veranda is wonderful as others have said, so I won't rave too much about that. Rhona and Mervin do a great job of taking ca… More

    Response from the owner
    Thank you for taking the time to write a review of our Villa at Mapou Hill. You were kind enough not to mention it directly, but I wish to apologize once again for the unfortunate mix-up when you were not met as promised at the dock, and taken to the Villa. It was terribly embarrassing, and I thank you for being such a good sports about it. Your comment on the coffee-maker is noted and one will be installed very soon.....since the power supply is 220 volts we must find one that does not self-destruct when plugged in. Thank you for your comments on our dinner together. I also enjoyed the evening. I know you said you usually chose a new location each trip, but perhaps you may make an exception and return one day. I certainly hope so. Best Regards, Trevor

    What a view!

    We definitely enjoyed our stay here. Being in Windward , there is always a breeze on the hottest days. The breeze also kept away any flying insects as well. We loved sitting or lying on the hammoc… More

    Response from the owner
    Dear Elle, I am only now learning of my ability to respond online to reviews, and hasten, belatedly, to thank you for yours. Yes the steep driveway is a little daunting but I always hope it will be soon forgotten when one sees the magnificent view, as you say about the steps. As you know, Rhona, our Housekeeper, walks up to the house thrice weekly from the village below and it is perfectly safe to drive with an excellent concrete surface. I do now recommend car rental unless guests are fitness inclined.....but Taxi's are inexpensive, and will happily collect and return you after a trip onto town, or the beach, or dinner out. Thanks again. I look forward to welcoming you back. Best Regards, Trtevor
