Great place to stay!!

We loved our stay!! Tons of room and the pool was fantastic! A little on the small side, so if there’s 10 people staying it would be kinda small, but for a few people it’s perfect!! Location is perfect and close to everything! Would 100% recommend staying here!

Our family was very pleased with this vacation rental. The house was very clean; spacious; well stocked; and conveniently located to everything, but located off the busy road. Several of the public beach access points are within walking distance. We had so much fun hanging out in the pool every evening. We absolutely loved this house! We will definitely book with SPI Rentals for our next trip to the island.
