Very nice Apartment, 3 bedrooms gave our family plenty of space to sleep and relax. We were busy on the island, so we didnt get to enjoy the fireplace or morning room area. Driveway is a little tight, but the street isnt busy to pull out in reverse.

Host was very welcoming and had such nice extra amenities like books, games, stuff to use to go to the beach, a mobile drink cart, and more. And he was exceptionally accommodating.

Very nice place. Clean and quiet. We only stayed 1 night but it was the perfect stop! They even had coffee stocked which made our morning departure very stress free. Thank you for a great stay!

Very cozy, welcoming property. James is lovely and a very accommodating host. Very responsive. And the enclosed patio, surrounded by greenery, is a real plus. Beds are very comfortable. We were three women. But the set-up is also good for families.
