Beautiful Tropical Garden
Located at the foot of Monks Hill and within minutes walk to the sea and a short drive to English Harbour and yachts from all over the world. Bamboo Place is nestled in a lush tropical setting overlooking Falmouth Harbour.
The property consists of the Bamboo House and Bamboo Cottage connected by a swimming pool with a beautiful palm filled garden, rare giant White Bird of Paradise and clusters of tall bamboo adding to the tranquility, as the sway and rustle of these trees make music in the Caribbean breeze.
Bamboo House is a two story, the main level apartment is a spacious two bedroom, two bath with a large open plan living, dining and kitchen area and a huge adjoining verandah with dining table,sofa & large double hammock for reading or siesta's.
There is also a one bedroom, 2 story cottage available. Please see VRBO listing #266897.
The apartment and the cottage #266897 can be rented separately or as one. The owner lives on the upper floor of Bamboo House, however the property has been cleverly designed to give everyone their own access and privacy, while having the security of knowing there is someone around should you need any assistance.
The property has a very romantic and relaxed feeling and is an ideal place to just sit back and enjoy, also a good base from which to do your exploring of the Island.

A nice retreat in Falmouth Harbour
Joanne has worked hard to make the house, grounds and pool area very welcoming. This is the first Caribbean island that I visited that air conditioning was not needed to sleep at night. The house is close to the Falmouth Harbour area, which has plenty of restaurant options. There are two local grocery stores that have staples, but I recommend using one of the larger grocery stores on your way in from the airport. Darkwood Beach is the best on the island and an easy drive. Locals are very friendly. There is an ice cream place 5 minutes away.

A little piece of heaven.
Everything that everyone has written about Bamboo Garden is true but even better. We are two older, very active cousins from New England, and we have fallen in love with the house and the island. It really is the perfect place. An oasis of beauty and relaxation. Joanne has created a little piece of heaven. The house is charming, great kitchen, Beds, and the porch is where you will want to spend your time. We felt very safe on the island and drove everywhere. Catherine’s beach restaurant is a must. I can’t think of a more wonderful spot for relaxing or adventure. Zip lining was a hoot.

Wonderful stay in Antigua
Bamboo Gardens is an idyllic spot. The large porch looks out on a fantastic garden and pristine swimming pool. (The jasmine was just coming into bloom when we were there and the fragrance was lovely).The rooms are nicely furnished with comfortable beds in each of the two bedrooms. The kitchen is adequately equipped for cooking (and grilling outside) which is good since restaurants in the area are somewhat pricey. Finding the place for the first time was somewhat challenging but when we arrived Joanne had left a pitcher of delicious rum punch and a platter of hummus, crackers and fruit. Joanne was very friendly and very knowledgable about the island. The humming bird feeder on the porch attracts lots of humming and other pretty birds. The local tortoise population provides for an unusual but efficient food scrap disposal.

Wounderful
As we drove up the driveway we were a bit unsure as it was a bit rough, but once we stepped inside the gates our jaw hit the floor. The entire setup is beyond belief, it is as if you had your own resort just to yourself! I can not say enough about how great the place was. Joanne is always available without being intrusive. I will 100% return here and wish I was there now!
