What really makes Villa La Cage stand out is the owner Mr. Bell. We were treated like guests of the family and made us feel extremely welcome. We were given rides into town and to the beach to save us from having to get a cab, and Mr. Bell was happy to make arrangements for things like fishing and tours to get us the best price.
The accommodations met all my criteria: clean, AC, and most importantly affordable.
The west end is also a great place to stay. Lots of great local bars and restaurants without the hustlers or tourist prices of the 7-mile beach or hip-strip in Mo Bay for example. There's cliffs and some small beaches right down the road, and the 7-mile beach is a 30 minute or short cab ride away.
I highly recommend the Villa La Cage, especially if its your first time to the island.
