New Listing! Charming Private Cottage(Duplex) Near Everything!
Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose Private Homes
This location is less than .3 miles (5 min walk) to one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. Just hop onto one of the two provided beach cruisers and explore everything the island has to offer. We are close to everything including dining and Jerry's market. For the golfer there are two semi private courses that offer a fun round while surrounded by the island's beauty.
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage
Our properties focus on the budget traveler looking for a four to five star stay. Our furnishings and location are a cut above the rest which we believe sets us apart from our competition. All of our guests come back for a repeat stay.
Owner's Map of Private Homes
The property is lovingly owned by a couple from Miami that uses it with their children. They have designed the interior to an upscale "Shabby Chic" style with beach house overtones. Comfort, style and the anticipation of our guest's needs was what we wanted to provide our visitors.
