We’ve stayed in many out island homes and this one was for sure the best. The kitchen was super well appointed not only with cooking essentials but also with paper towels, soap, etc. Hot water in the shower. Most comfortable bed. Stunning view. Cold AC while we slept. Will definitely be coming back. And the host was lovely and very helpful!

Aqua Villa is better than we could have dreamed. The home feels like home. Clean and had everything we needed. Lots of space. Best of all the location. The view is incredible. We had the sunset directly behind house, over the Atlantic. Spectacular.

I thoroughly enjoyed my two-week stay at Villa Aqua! The house is right on the beach - literally steps away from it. The back porch, which faces the ocean, spans the entire back of the house. It’s where I spent a lot of my time just relaxing. There are views of the ocean (and access to the back porch) from every room. I took full use of the kitchen, preparing many of my meals at the house. I appreciated having a washer and dryer onsite. I have already recommended this vacation rental to others. I would love to return someday.

Perfect Beach house at Stella Maris

Loved the location beside Moon Shine beach bar at Stella Maris. Perfect for a family - or 2 couples. Simple and clean! We stayed 2 weeks over the holidays. Took advantage of the Stella Maris club when we wanted - Staff was very friendly and helpful.
