Enjoy a 2,500ft white sandy beach, 2 smaller beaches & easy access to fabulous fishing, diving and boating.

This is a unique experience on a remote, fully private island. The accommodations have full power, internet and air conditioning and basic amenities but please be aware this is not a 5-star hotel.

There are 5 individual dwellings of varying size, an industrial-sized kitchen, a communal gathering space, a swimming pool, large deck with beautiful sunsets and an expansive array of tropical flora and fauna.
There are 2 Main dwellings on the island available for rent:

We do have a small staff (4) that live on the island and are there to assist with any needs and guide you around (if requested) to ensure a safe, and fun visit.
Bikes are available for use during the stay for trips to and from the beach.
Additional third-party excursions can be booked for an additional rate –
