We loved our stay! House was clean and next to the pool, attached to the pier as well. Beds were comfortable and kitchen supplies were good. Our flight home was canceled and we had to extend a night and we had a great communication with our host and it was easy to extend our stay. Recommend this house and location. Less busy than the Island over spring break and still Easy access to the island for restaurants and beaches!

Always a pleasure staying here. The home is beautiful and very comfortable. Waking up to the view of the bay every morning makes the day better. The owner has always made us feel welcome. There is a reason we stay here almost anytime we go to the beach.

My family and I stay here at least once a year and more often when possible. It’s been a relaxing and relaxing enjoyable time every time. The property is very comfortable and the views of the bay in the morning are mesmerizing.
