Trade Winds Hotel
View beautiful and room clean enough. The menu prices are listed in island dollars-NOT USA dollars but I do didn’t see that noted so the prices looked sky high, but really weren’t (when converted). Food was soso.

Dickenson Bay Cottages
This was a delightful little place. It was very clean and charming. The only downside is that it is a bit far from a grocery store and there aren't many restaurants close by. If you stay for a long visit, you may need a car or plan to take taxis a few times a week for supplies.
