Our two weeks here in April/May were marvelous. We have been renting vacation houses and villas for many years, and this was one of the very best. The layout is thoughtful and convenient (as well as beautiful and comfortable), and the kitchen was the best equipped we have ever encountered – every machine, gadget and tool you could ever want, ample dishes and utensils, even a great outdoor gas grill. There are many sitting areas, inside and outside, and both privacy and sun-avoidance is easily achieved. The house is well screened and well ventilated. The place is well cared for, and the manager, Lauren, ensures that guests are also – she helped us organize taxis, in-house chefs, and provisioning, and was very responsive to all requests for advice and help. Food and wine shopping for us was complicated (we had one vegan and at least one wine snob in the group), but the concierge made it all happen effortlessly. Mermaids Chair was an attractive and interesting spot, and Sandy Beach a perfect and unpopulated one (except for one trip down, we used the jeep – we’re in our 70s – but our adult children didn’t seem to mind the walk at all – it was all paved, but a bit steep at the end for one of us with a knee-replacement). We encountered no biting insects at the house, though we did appreciate finding a basketful of left-behind insect repellents (alongside the suntan lotions and sunglasses of all types and sizes). The place is situated for beauty, designed for comfort, and attended with meticulous care. Highly recommended, in every aspect.
