As we drove into the neighborhood, we were instantly in love! We had no idea it would feel like a friendly neighborhood street... on a cul de sac no less! The walking path to beaches (boogie boarding, wading, and snorkeling) was just outside the house, well-paved, and beautiful -perfect for the beach wagon full of chairs, boogie boards and sand toys provided at the house (!!).
The house itself has just been renovated and you can certainly tell. The carpets felt plush and clean, everything looked newly painted and repaired save a few minor things (window screen downstairs and a fridge that needs an extra push to close). The beds were super comfortable, as were the couches and patio furniture.
The layout worked so well for our families, keeping the children downstairs and the adults upstairs. We were worried about the lack of AC (which seems to be the standard on the island), but the house gets great cross-breeze (particularly in the upstairs bedrooms), and where there's not, plenty of fans are provided. The kitchen and living area are open and provide lots of space for corralling your stuff as you come indoors. The front porch is also a great place to drop sandy shoes, catch a breeze, or watch the rain from the safety of the covered seating.
Fun creatures for the kids OUTSIDE like lizards and snails, but no creepy crawlers inside that we saw. Also, shockingly few chickens in the immediate area! We had the rest of the island to enjoy their company :)
Definitely recommend!!
