It's a beautiful property. Definitely not for anyone who cannot make it up and down a spiral staircase. The hot water did not work the first two days but was up and running within hours of me asking if that was normal. There is a dog across the street (and just yards away from your bedroom) that barks a lot but between the hours of 11p and 6a, he was relatively quiet. The place came with everything you would need, sheets, towels, tp, water and paper towels, shampoo and soaps and was very clean. They even had phone chargers by the bed. We felt safe and liked the close location to the reef. We loved taking the kayaks out and tying them up not far from the shore but you need to be in good shape to be able to get in and out of the kayaks and onto the platform from the kayaks. The snorkeling was amazing!! It is a great place to stay if you are going to explore the land and sea and have a rental car. I would not recommend it for families with small kids, mobility issues or who are planning to dive a lot. Also, you need to like dogs, cats and the occasional chickens that will pop in to say, "Hi" We don't watch TV so I can't speak to that but they do have 2 nice looking tvs. Wifi worked the entire time we were there. If you need a to work while on vacation there is also a perfect little airconditioned office to hide out in. In addition, you will need to visit as grocery store or have a car because there is no food or drinks within walking distance.

Pool was wonderful. Just as an FYI. The newly stained deck is extremely slippery. One of us slipped and fell into the pool. The deck was dry. He sustained a gash on his knee and bruises on his hip. Even more slippery when wet. Eveything else was phenomenal

The property is gorgeous and exactly as described in the pictures. The pool was great and rests at an ideal temperature - not too cold, not too hot. A/C works well, although we didn't use it much as there are ceiling fans, and windows on all 4 sides of the house to open and let the breeze through. All the windows and doors had locks, there is an alarm system, and we felt very secure. The beach was free of garbage, and seaweed surprisingly! The BBQ got a lot of use and most meals were taken on the upper deck watching the sunset. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to prepare meals, although a few more Tupperware pieces would be nice. The only thing I would add would be a gate at the top of the exterior stairs to the deck. There are a few dogs that come onto the property (they dig under the fence, nothing you can do), and can be a bit annoying when you're trying to eat - they are friendly however. We have rented several beach houses in the Caribbean and Central America, and this one is getting a return visit.

The location of this cottage is in an area where crime has increased. If we would have known this, we wouldn’t have stayed here. The house was broken into with a crow bar while we were in our kayaks during the middle of the day and our things were stolen. Our car was in the driveway, front gate was locked. House was locked. It is clear someone was watching us. Stephanie, the property manager did everything she could by moving us to another area, working with the security company and contacting the owner. There are cameras on the home that were not operable and there is an alarm that guests don’t have access to. I don’t know if any of that would have detoured the burglar but I felt like the owner should have done something to make us whole. The only thing the owner agreed to do was reimburse us for 3 nights we didn’t stay there. The home itself is lovely, just located in a bad neighborhood.
