Chili prawns were a standout. Other food was good. restaurant is atmospheric with stone arches, but air doesn't circulate, so it gets hot.

Hummingbird is a tiny resort located by the sea, 40 minute drive from the airport. The garden is beautiful with a little pool area. Rooms are cosy but a little worn out. It´s nice to sit on the verandah and watch the hummingbirds flying around. Restaurant offers nice food and the breakfast is good too. The personnel is very helpful and friendly, always singing and smiling. There´s a beach in front of the resort but the water is not very clean.

We traveled with our son and his HS senior friend for their senior spring break. We had an amazing time, stayed Friday to Friday at the Hummingbird Resort in their small charming cottage across the road from the main hotel rooms. It is surrounded by their local garden which produces many fruits and vegetables and flowers which are put in your room daily. The resort has one of the best views of the the Pitons since it is right on the water. Each day one is greeted with the majestic stature of the Pitons, something which is the national symbol and from which on never tires.

The Hummingbird is a converted estate of a Canadian family and is warm, has beautiful stone walls, very nice bar and restaurant, and a small but adequate pool. The resort is run by Joyce and Linden and the staff is very helpful. They help arrange for water taxi 's, scuba diving( see Chester at the dive shop immediately adjacent to the resort-access from beach), tours, etc. The resort is not fancy, but it is very clean and secure 24hrs a day. We felt extremely safe there, as did others with whom we spoke. The entire facility has a charm that retains the warmth of the home it once was. The WiFi was spotty and stopped working for several days completely which was a mixed blessing since we were then totally focused on our vacation but felt a bit out of touch. We watched the NCAA mens basketball tourney on a television at the bar which was brought in special for us by Joyce when they found that the regular big screen was not working. What a great gesture! They made us feel special the whole time we were there. The restaurant food was very good but a bit pricey( as it is in almost every restaurant we saw)
We hooked up with a local young man named Porgey who acted as our daily guide for anything we wanted to do. He even climbed up to the summit of Gros Piton with us in only flip flops! His buddy Simon had a boat which took us to Rodney Bay and back one night and to Marigot Bay another evening. Water taxi's can be a bit expensive but are definitely faster and more fun than car. Its a great way to see the island. Ask Miss Johnnie or Jimmy at the desk for help contacting them.
The town of Soufriere is a short walk from the Hummingbird and appears fairly poor since most everyone there has there hand out. Its not nearly as bad as Jamaica or the Bahamas, the town clearly has needy people. Despite this, we traveled into the local grocery on several occasions, went to a couple of local bars ( with our local guide ) and sang karaoke. Everyone drinks Piton Beer, a local staple. The town is not resorty or touristy, which is actually refreshing, and has a number of very good restaurants from which to choose. Besides being close to town, the Hummingbird is also in close proximity to several of the islands top resorts( aka very expensive) such as Anse Chastenet, Jalousie Resort, The Still Resort and Ladera and all can be accessed for use of the beaches etc.

We were staying at the Beach House next door for 1 week and visited the Hummingbird daily. The owner was very welcoming and friendly, inviting us to use the pool whenever we wished, since we did not have one where we were staying. The staff were always helpful and friendly and the resaurant was very nicely decorated with a fantastic view of the Pitons in the background overlooking the pool. A wonderful place to watch the sun set while having dinner. The food was good, atmosphere was classy and prices were reasonable. The location is great with fantastic views of the Pitons and within walking distance of the town of Soufriere. Great bar with outgoing bartenders making it a perfect place to have drinks around the pool.
