Hotels in Saba

Forget about the huge glamorous hotels located right on the beach…the hotels on Saba a small, tucked away in forests and offering great views of the sea and mountains. Many of them are family owned and a lot have very affordable prices.

Climate and Tourist Season

The weather is generally hot, but cooled by the trade winds. The annual average temperature is 27C/80F, varying by couple of degrees between seasons. The winter evenings require a sweater as the temperature can get a bit cooler. And if you climb Mount Scenery expect the temperatures to drop by approximately 0.2C/0.4F for each 100m/330ft gained in altitude. The rainy season lasts between June and November but the rainiest month is November.

Although people don’t come here for the beaches, the high season remains the same as all over the Caribbean: December to April with Christmas and New Year’s having higher rates (in some resorts)
