The owner, staff and locals are very friendly and helpful. The island is peaceful and not crowded. The house is located on a quiet street with beautiful ocean views from the deck. The kitchen was well stocked and the house was comfortable. The power on the island went out a few times but it wasn't for long and we had a flashlight and candles. (Thanks again to Wayne for checking on us!) Although it is only a few feet to the ocean, it was very difficult to get into the water from the property due to the many rocks, sea urchins and strong current (even with rubber soled shoes). We found it easier to enter the water at Tibbetts Wreck (about 1/2 mi. down the road), Scott's Dock or further up the island at Sylvia's Cove. The snorkeling was pretty good - there are lots of fish, stingrays, turtles, sea fans, etc. While we were there, the winds were very strong on several of the days so we could not snorkel but we enjoyed exploring the caves, walking on the lighthouse trail, parrot walk, Rebecca's cave and long beach walk, visiting the Columbus Gardens or bicycling. Recommend renting a car or bike. B&S Motor Ventures were great for auto rental and bicycle rentals were good through Active Pursuit LTD (it's a busy shop and they rarely answer the phone so go in person). Food (grocery or restaurant) is very expensive with limited options and extremely poor for vegetarians. The Pioneer Bakery is good for homemade bread/rolls. Our stay was good and recommend staying here.

This is the perfect location for divers and snorkelers. A beautiful, protected coral reef is right off the beach with lots of sea life. The house faces north into the blue Caribbean Sea. Sunrises and sunsets are otherworldly. The hostess and caretaker are both super-responsive and helpful. I give them and this quiet location the highest possible ratings.

We had a wonderful time. The property was as described. It is in a wonderful location. Really enjoyed looking at all the stars.
