For anybody who appreciates nature at it`s best the Islander`s Inn is the place to be. A beautiful hotel thoughtfully embedded in nature in a fantastic location. With direct access to the ocean - a private beach right across the hotel. The hotel complex is well maintained and beautifully landscaped -surrounded by unspoiled nature. Located only a 15 minute walk from the town of Clifton. The rooms are immaculately clean and meet high european standards. All decorated with love. And a STUNNING view! Mosquito nets and free WiFi round off the hotel's profile.This place really is an insider tip!! The lovely host Sandra is very friendly, helpful and does her utmost to make your stay as pleasant as possible.The welcome is very warm and I felt at home from the first second. The food is delicious. And a tasty breakfast on the beautiful terrace overlooking the ocean is the best way to start a day. I highly recommend this place for all those who appreciate a quiet accomodation in a dreamlike setting. I will definitely be back.

We stayed at The Islander’s Inn on Union Island in November 2021 for several nights and it was an extremely pleasant experience. We arrived from Bequia and landed in Union Island Airport and it was just a short taxi ride to the accommodation. One can also walk to the airport, which we did to enquire about a flight to the mainland. I recommend that people do this (even if they do not have a flight) because it is interesting to see as it is a small airport.
The room was kept clean and it was spacious. Hearing the sound of the waves was soothing. Our room had a balcony and it was a great place to read a few books.
Although there is no A/C, there is a fan.
The owner, Sandra, was lovely and she arranged a trip to The Tobago Cays. As we were there for just over a week, we also got our laundry done for a reasonable amount.
The beach is a lovely and peaceful place to go for a walk.
Clifton is a short walk from the hotel and it is in close proximity to The Sparrow Beach Club, which is a great place to swim. There are two ways to get into town: If you turn left when you leave the hotel, facing the beach, then you miss the hill but it is slightly muddy. If you turn right, you have to go up a steep hill, but it is also extremely scenic and great exercise. You might also see tortoises.
It is also a quiet place to stay, which is a huge bonus.
It would be nice if there could be a fridge in the room as one is advised not to drink the water and we had to purchase it.
I left a few of my books in the room and I hope that someone has found a good use for them.

We chose this hotel for it's location and local charm and price point and on all counts it didn't disappoint. The location overlooking a small beach with views across to Mayreau is fabulous. The rooms are spacious and very clean, our bed was comfortable (but quite low) and with windows and a fan we were cool enough at night (making use of the mosquito net). We had use of a fridge in the corridor outside the room and daily house keeping. Our terrace was lovely but seating not the most comfortable. The bathroom was clean and joyfully we had hot water every day.
Location is great, feels like a bit of paradise. In addition to the outlook and quiet you are walking distance from the town (up and over the hill, 13 mins for us!) or along the beach and salt pond to Sparrows Beach Bar and Big Sands (10 mins) for gorgeous swimming. We ate two evening meals prepared by Holly - both were good, but her prices are not especially competitive. Sandra is helpful and welcoming and organised taxis for us, also recommended things to do such as Ashton Lagoon and Chatham Bay.
Maintenance challenges, weather, water issues, electricity and supplies are just some of the challenges faced by the tourist industry in SVG. After several stays in different island hotels and guest houses in the SVG we'd rate this one pretty good and in the sometimes difficult circumstances of being an hotellier in such a tropical and remote spot Sandra delivers a lovely and comfortable place to stay.

We took the Jayden sun fast ferry from Bequia to Union island (highly recommended) fast ferry cost EC$100 each. Stopping off at Canuoan & Mayreau journey time 2 hours. Sandra the owner arranged for a taxi to meet us & a lovely home cooked supper was prepared by Holly the Chef. Rooms are clean , spacious & comfortable. A small fridge inc. Some of the family rooms have kitchens. We had a large terrace facing the beach. Beach outside hotel is pretty and natural. A short walk away is Big Sand Beach with Jack Sparrows Restaurant & Bar, with lots of sun beds. You can walk into The nearby town of Clifton. If you are feeling energetic a steep walk up to The Old Fort Hill is rewarded with beautiful views of the Islands.

Such a nice small hotel overlooking a perfect secluded beach. My room had a perfect balcony view of a palm tree framed beach. I could have stayed there and done nothing and been perfectly content with the sea breeze and waves! Definitely a piece of paradise. Islander Inn is just a short 10 minute walk over the hill to Clifton with its small restaurants and bars, shops, and port. Farther along the beach is also a nice restaurant and bar. Union is a very walkable island, and you won't find all of the busy traffic of the other islands. I highly recommend Islander Inn for anyone looking for a tropical beach, peace, and quiet. Off the beaten path but still close to amenities. The owner Sandra is very nice and helpful, and can direct you to anything you need around the island. I will definitely be back next year!

Under no circumstances should you believe everything that others say ;-). Especially if it is not constructive. Everyone is different and that is a good thing... If you like staying in anonymous or all-inclusive hotels, or are looking for luxury or the highest level of comfort, you will not find it here. If you are looking for a trip and not just a vacation, Union Island is the right place for you. Here and with Sandra, you will find real life, authenticity, encounters and a sense of well-being.
We had a very nice and relaxed time at the Islanders' Inn. Sandra is very warm-hearted, friendly and helpful. Her pretty little and family-run accommodation is right by the sea on a beautiful natural beach. Everything is self-built. The rooms are simple but completely adequate and also very comfortable, with a beautiful wooden terrace and a great view of the sea. There is breakfast, which costs extra and is very tasty. The accommodation is about a 15-minute walk from Clifton, where there are various restaurants and shops, etc. The island can be easily explored on foot if you like hiking.

We chose this hotel for its stunning view of the sea and price point. It met all our expectations. Our room was basic but clean and comfortable with a lovely balcony and chairs. Sheets and towels changed regularly. Bathroom and shower perfectly acceptable considering Union Island has limited water supplies. Sandra and team went out of their way to help us enjoy our holiday. Sparrows Beach and restaurant just a short walk away, and definitely worth visiting.

Chose hotel down to price , didn’t realise the hotel was so remote. When we arrived it did look derelict. The room was big and rather dated and basic. It did the job. The view was stunning , the beach was always empty, the sea is a little ruff. Could do with some more shade and beds on the beach. Jack sparrows is walkable and nice food. Several places in town to eat . Tea making facilities in the room. The housekeeper was lovley . You get what you pay for ! And I can’t complain for the price .

In all my years of travelling I have never encountered such behaviour from a hotelier.
Having read all the positive reviews, we were looking forward to our two night stopover in Union at The Islanders Inn.
We met Clyde and his wife 3 days earlier and they let us leave one case with them whilst we stayed on Mayreau before returning for a further 2 nights.
On our return we were greeted by Clyde and his wife , we even presented them with a pineapple as they kindly looked after our case. The atmosphere was quite jovial and Clyde asked us if we were eating with him that night, we felt a little pressured, but as the hotel is quite isolated, we decided to eat there. I made a joke which Clyde totally misunderstood , and took offence at. The atmosphere changed dramatically, I apologised, but decided I did not want to eat there as there was clearly an atmosphere. When I told Clyde, I’d changed my mind about eating that evening . He went berserk, and told him we weren’t welcome and to leave immediately. At one stage he threatened to “Mash” me. Only 5 minutes earlier his wife requested the final EC$170 which I duly paid. I requested this money back which he refused. So he’d taken my money in full and was throwing me out at 5.00pm .
Next morning I went to the Tourist office to complain about the treatment. They were horrified and immediately got in touch with the police. We then went with the police and a representative from Tourist office back to see Clyde and request a refund. Both he and his wife gave an entirely different story to the police, at one stage calling me a drunk. He refused to any form of refund.
A follow up to this story.
This case was handed to the main Tourist Office in St Vincent’s who were not happy with his behaviour and actions , I think they leant on him to make a refund I received EC$84, which represents 15% of the money I paid. However I did receive a nice letter from the Tourist office apologising for Clyde’s behaviour saying his behaviour is not representative of the rest of the Islanders. This we found to be true as everyone else we ventured on were absolutely charming.
Please feel free to look at previous Trip Advisor reports I’ve posted , all of which are balanced, truthful and fair.
