Welcome to Picard Beach Cottages! 

Picard Beach Cottages, Dominica’s only locally-owned beachside bungalow cottages, offers 18 comfortable, hardwood Beachfront and Beach view Cottages. The quaint, beach-side, Caribbean style cottages overlook Dominica's longest beach, Prince Rupert Bay.   Whether you are staying in a Beachfront or Beach view cottage, you are only steps away from the water. 


Depending on your time of arrival, dinner can be ordered and served in your cottage upon arrival from the onsite or nearby restaurants.  There are stores and a mini supermarket in walking distance.  Should you wish to have some provisioning done prior to your arrival, this can be easily arranged at a standard cost.


Your Beachfront Cottage is equipped with a Queen-sized Bed, full bathroom with tub, day bed/sofa in living room, kitchenette with dining area, fold-out desk with fabulous sea view, patio overlooking the beach, with fan and air conditioning.  

Traditionally crafted and tastefully decorated with comfortable, modern amenities, your rustic wooden cottage is furnished with a full kitchenette including stove with oven, fridge/freezer, coffee/tea maker, microwave, as well as iron and ironing board and free wifi. 


Enjoy the sounds of nature as the waves lull you to sleep... bask in the star-lit nights as you stroll barefoot along the beach appreciating the night's lights and sounds... Embrace the special "feel good" energy and rejuvenate your spirit in our enchanting spaces...  Take a walk in our lush gardens and lightly forested spaces where you can pick carambola, mangoes, limes, guava, papayas, coconuts... based on seasonal availability.


Picard Beach Cottages beckons you...  your home away from home... Enjoy eco, beach-side living, naturally...

I had a wonderful and memorable time. Yvonne was a wonderful and gracious host. She knows the ins and outs of Dominica and all the beautiful places to visit. The accomodations she booked for me at harmony villa, the anchorage and picard beach were as described and beautiful!

We had a great half-day tour with our guide Kevin. And Yvonne was extremely helpful and patient with our last minute changes.
