Sister's House

About this space
Sister's House is my mom's house! Her name was Helen but everyone called her Sister. She worked very hard as a single mom to build her dream home. We wish to welcome you to share in that dream. Sister's favorite part of her home was the huge kitchen as well as the back porch to sit in the early mornings to sip some tea. Sister's House is a traditional-styled Dominica house with ongoing updates since Hurricane Maria. We hope you enjoy Sister's House in Grand Bay. Pls note: NO AC. Older house.
The space
Siste's House is a traditional, Caribbean 90s style house. We have made some updates but kept a lot of the traditional features that you should be aware of:
* tiled floors
*fans instead of AC
*both 110V and 220 V electrical wiring
* wood and plastic kitchen counters

Since Hurricane Maria, we have made updates including:
*repainting, reroofing
*changed half of the windows
*repainted
*completely overhaul the bathroom

However, some hurricane effects remain such as:
*some electrical issues (some bulbs do not work)
*few windows give issues to open
*one kitchen cupboard doesn't open due to water damage

It is an older house that shows its age and hurricane battering in some places. Expect to find some loving wear, quaint aging and old school Caribbean charm.

WiFi is available throughout the home. Netflix or Youtube is available on TV.

The upstairs of the house will be yours for your stay. There are two bedrooms and one bathroom, large kitchen, dining room and living room. One huge front porch and a small back porch.
Guest access
Guests will have the entire upstairs apartment of the house for themselves.
