Experience island living with amazing staff!
We found this property as described and as depicted in the photos, including the sprawling private beach and the assortment of water toys. We enjoyed 2 kayaks & a double kayak. The water is stunningly beautiful and safe. We swam with sea turtles, colorful starfish & live conch. The local dogs are nice, not a bother at all.
You are genuinely secluded. The house is built for enjoying the breeze and we left the windows open downstairs the whole time. We enjoyed the rustic charm of screened porch doors and shaded lounge areas. It was so quiet we could hear the wind whistling through the pines. We were a group of five sisters and we each had our own beautifully appointed bedroom.
When we arrived earlier than expected our lovely housekeeper made us feel welcomed, told us the location of the nearest grocery, and also left fresh flower arrangements in our rooms! The manager can get you a ride from the airport and a vehicle to use for a fair price, and she can also arrange for a boat to be delivered to your dock, just ask. Check with Lisa to confirm the AC is working if you rely on that for sleep. Upstairs had great AC! We bought ice at the store because ice maker was broken at the time.
There are several staff members who live on site, which made us feel safe in the midst of all that solitude, but you will really only notice them if you need them. They can expertly open a coconut for you! It’s a very large property. Thank you to our hosts and we can’t wait to return!
