Without doubt, our 4 days with Shirley and Lou Spycalla at Erindell Villa Guesthouse in Montserrat were the most relaxing, enjoyable and uproariously funny days of our recent 3-week visit to 5 islands in the British, Dutch and French West Indies. At our request, Shirley kindly arranged transportation to and from the airport as well as a rental vehicle which... more

I went on a short 2 day visit for business and liked the island and people so much I'm taking my wife back soon. Shirley and Lou, owners of the guest house were the perfect hosts. They know all you want to know about the island and I would encourage anyone to stay with them. more

Thanks to both Shirley and Lou for such a great time over new year... it seems such a long time ago, but realy not so far. As I said at the time, as well as being a wonderful experience, I learned so much as well, about the island, the people, politics, you name it... and had a few good beers,... more

This was my first vist to Montserrat. A friend and I went there to operate HAM radio and compete in a world-wide competition. Lou and Shirley were excellent hosts. They let us put up our antennas where we wanted and even got permission from the neighbors. Lou and Shirley made us feel right at home during our week long stay.... more

A warm and welcoming place. Lou and Shirley are warm and friendly hosts. In addition to their friendliness you get loads of information and advice on how to navigate your stay on Montserrat. Montserrat is a beautiful, quiet, peaceful and safe Caribbean island, highly recommended as your island destination. more

I was on my first trip to the Caribbean with my dad in May 2006, and we lived at Erindell for the whole stay at Montserrat. My father had told me alot about both Shirley and Louie, since he has been at Erindell once before. I was absolutely stunned by their kindness and warmness. They open their home to you,... more

This was my 4th vist in 7 years and I've stayed with my Montserratian family, Lou and Shirley, each time. I have always felt at home. Their warmth is exceptional. My love for Montserrat and my recent land purchase are, in part, a product of their hospitality. Thank you, Lou and Shirley!! John Paulson, Columbus Ohio more

Having searched for decades the arc of the Lesser Antilles in pursuit of the perfect tropical vacation, we may well have found it this Christmas past. We were quite familiar with Montserrat from 3 trips in the late 80s, but had always rented private homes. Although these journeys rated among our favorite Caribbean experiences, they lacked the familial closeness and... more

I hopped down to Montserrat for a brief respite from city life with uncertain expectations. I was pleasantly surprised by the family and quaint atmosphere at the guesthouse. It was comforting to get local information, an arranged airport taxi, as well as assure my parents I was safe and sound while exploring with a borrowed cell phone! Shirley and Lou... more
