Hidden Gem

This property was perfect for our family of 4, but could easily accommodate 6. It can sleep 8 if you pack the bunk beds because there is a double under the single bunks. The living room sofa is very comfortable and has power recliners. We loved all of the decor and beachy furniture. It really felt like a treasure chest. We did a good bit of cooking and found pretty much everything we needed to throw some meals together with plenty of counter space and a nice big dining table. There are restaurants within walking distance (10 minute walk). Be prepared to wait during peak summer season because the island gets busy with visitors. The beach access is literally across the street. It is close enough to walk back to the house and eat lunch during your beach days if you prefer to keep the sand out of your food. The master bedroom mattress was a little different than what we are used to (soft pillow top) but overall we enjoyed this location and would book again! This is the next best thing to actually staying right on the beach. 5 stars!
