Hosts were very helpful and had great communication! A bench press off the kitchen area, boxing gloves, hockey bobble heads what more do teenagers need? I like the bird in the tree that sung to us at dusk, was buzzed by a hummingbird, and awakened by chickens. The host has a whole bunch of different goodies for sale if you have the munchies. The lamps in our bedroom were beautiful but I did find my bed achy. My kids found the other beds to be fine for them. To be fair it took me 3 years to find a bed for home that didn’t make me achey. Would love to have more time on the island as there is so much to explore. My favorite spot is the Butterfly Zoo. Oh and the lovebirds enjoyed the hottub.
