The house was nice. Great location as it was close to entrance and grocery store. House has plenty of room. Amenities were ok. But it needs a lot of updating. Broken toilet, poses deck boards, in need of serious paint job (fence and outside), gas grill wouldn’t light, dirty pool and pool deck. Just put a little bit of TLC into the place and it could be five star.
Enjoyed my stay with family and friends, hope to do more.

Beautiful property.
We stayed for a partial week. So, unfortunately, we didn't have a chance to take advantage of the activities and facilities offered by the resort. However, the house was enough to keep 4 adults, 3 teenagers, and 3 little ones from getting stir crazy or bored, which ain't easy, lol. I loved that there is a grocery store, souvinier shop and ice cream parlor within walking distance, you don't even have to get on the main road. Added bonus, grocery store is open 24hrs. Also, we loved and appeciated the valet service at the beach and private parking. We didn't use the shuttle service to the beach but is another added perk. I would definitely stay at this property again.

Best house we have stayed at in our 13 years of visiting this gorgeous island, cant wait till next year! Ocean and Sound Views, walking distance to grocery store/eateries/etc.... Could not ask for a better location with such a beautiful house. Amenities were plentiful in the house, I just can't say enough good things regarding our stay!
