An excellent stay from start to finish. The host is exceptional—proactive, thoughtful, and incredibly helpful, even answering questions we didn’t think to ask. For example, they assisted with arranging a rental car, which made our trip much smoother. The location is within easy driving distance of the capital, which is very convenient, while still being peacefully set in the middle of nature. The property itself is comfortable and beautifully maintained. The kitchen is very well equipped, and the WiFi is fast and reliable.

“Just perfect. I stayed here twice before, so I knew what to expect.”
We made our own breakfast. Perfect location for travelling by car to all the sights on the island, which would have been much more difficult if we stayed in Jamestown.

“God stay at a great place, highly recommended to people who want a relaxed time in St Helena.”
Peaceful, very clean and with all facilities. Very relaxing in the hills, where the weather is more comfortable and less hot than lowland. Lovely owners were very helpful

“非常满意”
Banana Tree Lodge is very new, fully equipped and very clean. The landlord is very welcoming. Debbie personally sent the car to the airport. Rich contacted me enthusiastically every day, told me what to pay attention to, and suggested where to travel, just like a good friend.

“Lovely place to stay and absolutely fantastic hosts. Thanks so much. Look forward to staying again!”
Banana Tree Lodge is absolutely lovely. It is a little drive outside of Jamestown but it is a wonderful place to stay to explore Saint Helena. Richard and Debbie were absolutely wonderful and so kind. Absolutely five starts and I will be staying there again.

“Can’t imagine a better base for the independent traveller who likes to self cater.”
This felt like a ‘home away from home’ with everything we needed. The location is tucked up on the hill and was an ideal base for our daily hikes all over the island. We appreciated all the small touches that made us feel welcome, including the scrabble board we availed ourselves of in the evening, as we sipped unique, locally sourced artisanal gin. It helped the aching muscles after conquering ‘Jacobs Ladder’. We’ve never met such friendly but unobtrusive people anywhere, starting with the taxi driver, Colin, who the owner arranged to pick us up at the airport. He kindly took us to a supermarket to pick up supplies and orientated us to the island. Matt at the tourist information centre in town was great to talk to - would suggest going there early in the week to see the open hours of the main attractions over the coming week, so you don’t miss anything. A visit to the nearby Plantation House to see Jonathan the oldest living land creature in the world, is a must! The home is also close to the Lemon tree valley post box walk.

“A great house if you want to explore St. Helena for a few days”
A very nice and modern house with plenty and expedient furnishing in a quiet area with great views of the sea (and stars at night). Extraordinary friendly and helpful landlady.
