Three families with 7 adults and 7 kids (ages 4-20) traveling for Thanksgiving week. The house is breathtaking, situated in a rural area flanked by gorgeous homes but with total privacy. A massive living room and kitchen was the perfect spot to convene for meals, football on Thanksgiving, and we even grilled a turkey. Bedrooms are huge, with two masters in the main house and another in the pool house, and four more very spacious rooms. The infinity pool was immaculate and gorgeous. Lots of spare snorkel gear, games, 4 kayaks, and every pot and pan we needed. We spent mornings drinking coffee by the pool, paddled to the islands, and visited all the best beaches. Our favorite spot was Brea’s Beach Bar just a few minutes south. Unbelievable spot, lots of fun, and water like postcards.
A couple things we wished we knew in advance: a party of 14 is a massive group for restaurants, and you cannot just walk in. We cooked almost every night, and if we had it to do over again, we would have splurged for the private chef a few times.
Also, cash is king on the island. Many businesses don’t take cards, and many will say they don’t until they realize that’s all you have, and then the machines suddenly work - a common scenario in the Caribbean, but bring cash. It’s much easier that way.
Awesome spot. Awesome trip. Highly recommend.
