The best place I’ve ever stayed. Actually got to meet the architect John Hix and his wife. We are so blessed to be able to stay at his place and enjoy his vision of Hix Island House.
Everything was amazing! They accommodated me with an after-hours entry; there was food left in the fridge (eggs, bread, jams/butter, milk) and fruit available in reception; and I had the chance to experience 2 different rooms in 2 different buildings (triangle and round) with their unusual layouts and outdoor spaces. This is a very relaxing environment, open to nature and all that entails. No microwaves or TV, just the basics in an elegant, comfortable setting! I think you must have private transportation to navigate the remote area.
We arrive late, after the last ferry got in, so we were told to go to an empty room at the top of the steps. What a thrill, staying at Hicks! The open air concept is amazing. Sleeping with just a mosquito net over us, in the open air, was a delight.
Scenic, starry night and amazing sunrise view. This is a tranquil and beautiful property secluded in the mountains, but not too far from anything the drive there is green and relaxing, and you may even see baby pigs! Staff made sure to make us feel at home. Look out for hairy aliens at night by the pool. Which was the friendly dog with night lights.
Amazing property. Quiet, large property with great architecture and amazing rooms and view. Stay here if you want the remote, calm nature experience.
Easily accessible by car
Beautiful architecture and well designed a lot of details. Very private and quiet. Friendly staff. We had a wonderful vacation at Hixlsland House. We will come back again. Yes, this is our 4th time there.
The serenity and peace you feel when you are there. The service of breakfast items in the refrigerator. Just complete positive vibes all around. Will definitely visit again and refer to friends.
Hix Island House offers a unique retreat where minimalist, open-air design merges with lush nature. Spacious, loft-like structures blur indoor-outdoor lines, maximizing light and breezes. Offers a unique retreat where minimalist, open-air design merges with lush nature. Recommended for a relaxed, private and safe getaway.
