We were very impressed. All clean, modern and new. Host was always available to answer any questions. Location was perfect. Close to town and major grocery store. Kitchen was well equipped. Beds were very comfortable. I actually had fantasies of moving there and living in this charming home. Will definitely recommend and would stay again.

Thank you so much! I am so grateful you enjoyed your stay and the magic of the island. It was my pleasure hosting you and if you ever come back, I'd be delighted to welcome you anytime.
This is a great place to stay in Eastsound! We were walking distance from everything in town, you can even rent e-bikes directly across the street. The kitchen is well stocked, we loved the local samples, and the place was overall very clean. Highly recommend!

One of the best-stocked rentals I’ve ever been in. Check in process was a breeze and the host was incredibly responsive. The house itself is just a short walk to all of the shops and restaurants in East Sound. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay for two nights. The home was very clean, comfortable, and well-organized, with everything we needed. The location is great — right in the center, surrounded by shops, restaurants, and cafés, which is very convenient. The property manager was easy to communicate with and very responsive, making our stay smooth and enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!
We really enjoyed the home, the communications were good from the host, the home was well stocked, she left a nice little treat for us to enjoy our stay, and the location couldn’t be better, you can walk to the eastbound restaurants, coffee, shops, and stores.

Excellent communication from the host, Kristen from before our stay began through our departure. Thoughtfully checked in with us to ensure all was well once we arrived and settled in. The property was really comfortable with all the amenities you would need. Great location in town!

Truly 5 stars!
This was the most well appointed rental! It truly had everything we needed. The host is responsive and kind. The location is walkable to shops, theatres, and restaurants. Parking was fabulous to have, too. It was comfortable and safe and I hope I get a chance to stay again someday.
A great location to walk all around town. We traveled with our three kids and there was more than enough room for all of us. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the amenities needed. The outdoor seating area was very comfortable. We would stay at this house again in the future.

Thank you for the wonderful review! This is such a wonderful home and I am grateful you got to enjoy all that comes with it! It was a pleasure hosting you and I'd love to host you again in the future!
We had a great stay! We were three women visiting the island for the first time. The house was perfect for us. The beds were comfortable, the location was ideal for walking to restaurants and stores, and the kitchen was very well equipped and stocked. We enjoyed spending time on the patio, and we appreciated the variety of books and games available. Kristen was a very responsive host. We really enjoyed the welcome gift. The only thing that might have improved the stay was if the bedroom blinds were black-out blinds. With the long days in July, it took a little getting used to the bedrooms being light so early in the morning. Overall, we had a fantastic time and would definitely stay here again!
We had a fantastic stay at Kristen’s place this past weekend. Kristen was a wonderful hostess, quick to communicate and very responsive throughout our time there, which made everything smooth and easy.We arrived late at night and had no trouble getting into the house. One small note is that Google Maps initially took us to the opposite side of the alley, which caused a bit of confusion, but once we found the correct street, everything was straightforward from there.The home itself was beautifully appointed and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The bedrooms were cozy, the beds incredibly comfortable, and the bathrooms were fully stocked with thoughtful toiletries. The kitchen was especially well-equipped, with more appliances than we expected and a great selection of spices and oils, which was helpful in case we forgot anything.The location in Eastsound is ideal, within walking distance of the main strip. We walked to the farmers market, did a little shopping, and wandered down to the water before heading out for the day.Overall, a lovely and restful getaway. My mom and mother-in-law truly appreciated the early Mother’s Day trip. Thank you again, Kristen, for making it such a welcoming and easy stay.
We had a wonderful stay at this property. It was perfect for our family of 4 and the location could not be better! We could walk to everything in Eastsound. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well appointed. We stayed for a week and had everything we needed. The host was very communicative and added thoughtful touches.
