We have rented a different home on this island every year for at least 10 years. A different home each time. This was by far our favorite. 4 large bedrooms with a comfortable living space large enough for everyone. Comfortable beds and furniture. A large pool and hot tub with a large furnished patio surround with 2 large outdoor TV's. All that and a dock large enough for a 30' boat. We also got the quickest response when we needed help with the main TV and the hot tub. Someone was there quickly every time. 10 out of 10 We will rent it again.
