Map & Owner's Profile
Stay at the Blue Crab a New Home on an Island Paradise!
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Don Pedro Island
Leslie and I owned a condominium on Palm Island Resort for years. We decided to build our own home on Don Pedro Island in late 2004. Although we enjoyed to resort, we find our home to be a private, relaxing get-away where we can spend time with each other and our family.
The Unique Benefits at this Home
Leslie and I have 5 grandsons who are active little fisherman and love the pool and ocean. We truly enjoy relaxing with our families, reading books on the sandy beach, taking a "dip" in the refreshing pool, kayaking in the lagoon or simply going to bed at night hearing the crashing of the waves. There is simply no better vacation.

Owner's Map of Don Pedro Island
My wife, Leslie and I built this home in 2006 as a get away from our busy Ohio lives. I am a home builder in Ohio, therefore, I understand the importance of LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. When my wife and I visited Don Pedro Island we knew it was the most beautiful, secluded island we had ever visited. As a home builder, I understand the needs and wants of people. This home is designed with people in mind.
