I’m honestly scared to leave this review bc I don’t want people to discover this absolutely GEM and I don’t want Defauskie tainted by more people. But nevertheless- credit is certainly due here.
1- EXCEPTIONAL Vrbo property manager. Terri is FANTASTIC. I found the welcome packet super helpful as well as a map of the island.
2- the owners thought of literally everything. Anything you can imagine meeting, it was certainly there. It made our stay so easy and so pleasant.
Now let’s get to the good stuff. The island is special. It’s mystical and enchanting and it just sucks you in and I honestly wish I didn’t have to leave.
The beach? MAGICAL! We were the only family on the entire beach. I had a straight up spiritual moment one morning, walking on the beach that I will never forget.
The people of the Islander so friendly, and they love to talk about the history and everything to do with it.
Once you get over, the fact that there is no major restaurant or grocery store, you can learn to live there!! Highly recommend reading the welcome packet and taking the tips that they give you!
Grab as many groceries as possible before leaving Hilton had to take on the ferry! By the way, absolutely recommend sitting on the top of the ferry so you can watch the dolphins on your ride over.
My teenage son asked when are we coming back. I think that speaks VOLUMES! Thank youuuyy
