Relaxing, tropical get-away-from-it-all property with all the conveniences of home
This is truly a relaxing, tropical get-away-from-it-all property with all the conveniences of home. We highly recommend it!
The property is across the street from the gulf-side sand and beach area. There is an access passageway to walk on over to the beach. Be sure to pick up all your groceries before you come. The round-trip ferry is 55. The drive on the island is paved and the property is easy to find. There are few cars on the island, but the golf carts do run along the road.
The beach is secluded and long in both directions. There are a variety of shells and some sand dollars to be found. Walking along the beach is comfortable in bare feet, but we brought along beach shoes for the access path. The house has some beach toys in the outdoor shower area. The door to the outdoor shower can be tricky; lifting on the door helps quite a bit.
We had two families with young adult children. The 'kids' all stayed in the first floor apartment. The adults stayed in the two big bedrooms.
One of the features that distinguish this property are the social spaces. From the central gathering space around the kitchen, apartment space, front and back deck, to the pool and breezeway space, this house lets you gather when you want and it lets you have private time when you need it.
The kitchen is fully stocked with all you need to cook. There is a charcoal grill with all the needed tools. There is even a Margaritaville frozen drink maker, so remember to bring your frozen drink mixes!
The screened-in porches keep out any big insects, which were rare over the new year's trip while we were there. They don't keep out the no-see-ums at dawn and dusk, but closing the patio doors for a couple hours solves that problem. It also worked well to turn off the air conditioning during the day and open the patio doors on both sides to get a cross breeze.
There are two big TVs on each floor if you need to watch that big game, a movie, or whatever is streaming from Hulu. LIve tv or streaming can be interrupted from time to time from the less-than-perfect internet reception.
All in all, this is a great property to relax, enjoy the pool, and enjoy your home-cooked food. We highly recommend it!
