Had wonderful family vacation at Sea La Vie. Bathrooms for each guest room, pool, canal access for kayaking, ping pong, proximity to beach and shops and restaurants. House has beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, towels and fishing poles. We rented golf cart and bikes and kayak and corn hole to round out the fun.

We were a group of 4 couples who went away for a 5 day mini vacation. The house was perfect. We each had our own room with en suite bathrooms and then there was a half bath too. The house is so spacious. Plenty of room to relax together and eat together. The pool was great and the men enjoyed fishing in the canal. We rented a 8 person golf cart that was fun getting around the island. Highly recommend!

Sea La Vie is a slice of island paradise! The home was immaculate with an amazing pool right on the water. Close enough to the beach for a quick golf cart ride but secluded enough to be private. Can't recommend it enough!

This house was absolutely perfect! There were 4 adults and 4 children in our group and it was just the right amount of space for us. The dock/ canal is great for keeping a boat. Location is awesome. We made great memories! Will be staying here again!!
Our stay was very short because of the impending hurricane but we made the most of it. 5 stars doesn’t do this fantastic home justice. We hope to be back in better weather!
