About this cottage rental
Bayleaf provides even the most seasoned traveller, a truly stunning back-to-nature experience. It is a wooden jalousie cottage, nestled between the trees and looks as if it has grown there in harmony with its surroundings. Virtually devoid of televisions and alarm clocks, it is a hideaway from the stresses of everyday living. Lie in a hammock under a canopy of stars and listen to the Atlantic Ocean's roar. It is within an easy 10 minute walking distance to some of the last remaining pristine beaches on the island and on some days you can have the beach all to yourself.
Bayleaf offers the comforts of home. It includes a queen-size bed, locally made wooden furniture, a walk-in closet and ceiling fans. It also includes a kitchen equipped with a refrigerator, two burner hobb, electric oven, toaster, blender, coffee maker, microwave and utensils.
Dining is alfresco, surrounded by the trees and chirping of birds in the daytime and chirping of crickets at night.
It also features a private en-suite bathroom with a sunken outdoor shower, surrounded by the trees.
It comes fully equipped with beach towels, portable hammocks, a portable barbecue grill, a cooler and ice packs.
The owners and co-host all live a 15 minute drive away.
Also available upon request are the services listed below, but these services are not included in the rental fee:
*Creole Cook: Our creole cook will be happy to prepare typical creole dishes for you for an additional fee.
*You can order groceries online prior to arrival and we will be happy to stock them for you for an additional fee.
*** We HIGHLY recommend you rent an SUV for getting to the cottage and driving around the island***
The cottage is 0.62 miles from public transportation and 5.08 miles from the town of Vieux Fort where you will find the Hewanorra International Airport, supermarkets, restaurants, banks, laundromat, gym and a spa.
A stay at the Bayleaf spells pure escapism and it is an experience that you will want to return to again and again and again.

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful little cottage in Micoud. Nestled in the woods and just a short 5–10 minute walk to the beach, the location was peaceful, secluded, and truly stunning. It felt like a hidden gem — the perfect place to disconnect and recharge.The host was incredible — so kind, welcoming, and attentive. She provided clear instructions before arrival, checked in with us regularly, and made sure we had everything we needed. My wife has several chronic illnesses, and the host went above and beyond to make accommodations that would support her health and comfort. We were deeply touched by the care and thoughtfulness she showed throughout our stay.Unfortunately, we did have to cut our trip short for medical reasons and return home early. But our host was extremely understanding and caring to us about the situation and made it that much easier for us through it all. The heat and humidity during this time of year proved too intense for my wife’s condition. That said, this is no fault of the host — just something to keep in mind for travelers who are especially sensitive to warmer climates. A trip later in the year when it’s cooler might have been a better fit for us.All in all, this cottage is a dream — tranquil, beautiful, and hosted by someone who truly cares. We wish we could have stayed the entire time, and we would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a serene getaway in nature.

A quiet cottage where you can relax and escape the hustle and bustle.

Bayleaf was absolutely perfect for us. Located in the south, away from the tourist zone in the north. Wonderful airy, comfortable cottage set in the woods with just a seven minute walk down a path to a beach all to yourselves.Dawn our host was fabulous who made sure we had everything we needed.If you want a relaxing and quiet couple trip, beach, walks … this place hits all the notes. You will want to rent a car for groceries and restaurants and to cruise around and see the island, assuming you don’t mind driving very, up and down hairpins and narrow roads. (Stay left).Highly recommended. Thanks Sawn and Dave for a wonderful week.

Dawn was so communicative and met us at the house on arrival. She thought of everything and checked in with us frequently to be sure we had everything we needed including recommendations for groceries, restaurants, and beaches. The cottage itself was perfect and just like the pictures. You can hear the ocean from the cottage and it’s just a short walk away. The road coming in is in rough shape and even with an SUV we bottomed out on the rocks. We knew that going in, so not really a complaint, but something to be aware of. I highly recommend this rental if you want privacy and a peaceful trip.
