Thank you for leaving a review, Kathleen! We are delighted to hear that you had a wonderful stay at our Life in Paradise rental. It's great to hear that the golf cart and heated pool were such enjoyable amenities for you during your vacation. We hope to have the pleasure of hosting you again in the future!
House was adorable and fully stocked with everything one could need. Golf cart was a fun addition!! The only issue we had was with the hundreds/thousands of mosquitoes all around property which required us to get two foggers at the grocery store. Also, a couple of live roaches were in the downstairs part of house (bedroom/bath areas) which required a separate trip to grocery to buy roach spray. I felt like the property management/owner should have done a better job ( especially with terrible mosquito problem/presence) before any renters’ arrival. Other than this, house was wonderful! Very close to grocery store and not far from beach. It is quite close to the ferry as well.

Thank you so much for your review and for choosing to stay at our property! 🌟 We're thrilled to hear that you found the house adorable and fully stocked, and that the golf cart made your stay more enjoyable.
We genuinely appreciate your feedback regarding the mosquitoes and the presence of insects. Living on an island indeed means sharing this beautiful space with some less welcome guests like mosquitoes and roaches, which thrive in the sand and humidity. Please know that we regularly spray our properties, and the city also conducts mosquito control measures to minimize their presence. However, despite these efforts, the island’s unique environment can sometimes make it challenging to keep them completely at bay.
We are so sorry for the inconvenience this caused during your stay. Your comfort and satisfaction are our top priority.
We’re glad that you enjoyed the house’s proximity to the grocery store, beach, and ferry. Your positive remarks about these aspects warm our hearts and inspire us to do better every day. 💖
Thank you for your understanding and your valuable feedback. We hope to welcome you back soon and provide an even better stay.
Warm regards,
Life in Paradise Team
