Summary of reviewsJulie, our host, was enthusiastic, gracious, kind, and made us feel at home. The property was cozy and perfect for relaxation, away from the city hustle, with a private patio. We loved our stay!
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
Host, Julie, was very helpful with information about the island. Also very warm and welcoming - greeted us with homemade biscuits! The complex is small and very nice and the apartment we stayed in had plenty of space. Bed was very comfortable and we enjoyed sitting outside on the balcony to eat. We appreciate having access to a washing machine when we travel so that was nice. It was not, however, in the unit (we had easy access to it at all times though). There was also not parking on the property, as we expected, but we were able to find nearby street parking without much trouble. It was a great stay and we highly recommend it.

My daughter and I were both thrilled when we stepped out of our taxi and found Julie, our very enthusiastic host waiting for us on the sidewalk and gave us a small tour of the property as we walked to our unit. We opened the doors and found a quaint cozy 1 bed, 1 sofa(bed) ķitchen, small bathroom and out the doors to our own private patio(with furniture and shade). It was the perfect size for the two of us after a week of touring. You could not see the sea from our room. You had to cross the street and walk down a beach access to get to the beach. You have some sand beach and some rock beach so you have euchre you prefer. We weren't ín the middle of hustle and bustle of the city but the bus stop was across the street from Julie's Apts and was 10-15 minutes away. We preferred a quiet little resort area that we could leave to go see and return to our apt for early bedtimes. Unfortunately, i also know that Julie is an exceptionally gracious and kind host "nurse" if you end up not feeling well. She was quick to check on me daily, ask if I needed anything, update my family daily. She truly was an angel. Unfortunately, I stayed ìn June and should have written this review weeks ago but I was still hanging on to some of my symptoms and the weather has been sunny/ rainy every day which is always a trigger for migraines. I didn't have my own nurse at home bc she became ill after she returned home. Night nurses don't do day shift and go right back to nights easily. Bottom line, we were thrilled and loved our getaway and Julie is an amazing host and tour guidebook author! ❤️ we miss them!
