Accommodation
HOTELS: The number of hotels has expanded in recent years; most are small- to medium-sized, and well equipped; the largest has 170 rooms. There are three hotels at the fringe of an area designated as a National Park. Information can be obtained from the Dominica Hotel and Tourism Association, 38 King George V Street, PO Box 384, Roseau (tel: 448 6565; fax: 448 0299; e-mail: dhta@cwdom.dm). The Association also provides assistance in organising conferences and conventions in Dominica.
Grading: Many of the hotels offer accommodation according to one of a number of ‘Plans’ widely used in the Caribbean; these include Modified American Plan (MAP), which consists of room, breakfast and dinner, and European Plan (EP), which consists of room only.
APARTMENTS/COTTAGES: These offer self-catering, full service and maid service facilities and are scattered around the island.
GUEST-HOUSES: There is a variety of guest-houses and inns around the island which offer a comfortable and very friendly atmosphere. There is a five per cent government tax and ten per cent service charge on rooms.
CAMPING/CARAVANNING: Not encouraged at present, though sites may be designated in future. Overnight safari tours are run by local operators.
