You'll want to stay longer and come back often

We have loved our vacations on BHI for the past 7 years, and Blue Moon is by far our favorite place to stay; once we found it, we stopped looking for other places on the island. It is perfectly located -- right on a gorgeous stretch of beach and not too far from either of the clubs, the harbor, or the marketplace. The views from the living areas are outstanding and the screened-in deck in back is a nice place to get the kids out of the sun for a bit while still enjoying the sounds of the waves and breeze off the ocean. Our favorite days are spent at least in part just walking the beach looking for shells or checking out the sea turtles' nests (last year, to our son's delight, one nest was dug on the beach right in front of the house our first night there, so we got to observe the counting of the eggs and fencing-in of the nest to protect it from predators and were able to follow its progress online all summer through the Conservatory's web page). On any given day, we might be lucky enough to find a few sand dollars and perfect welks, and we often get to see a dolphin family or two not more than a couple dozen yards offshore, following a school of fish. We also enjoy the pools at the two clubs, especially the gorgeous poolside views from the Shoal's Club. The house is well-stocked with games and puzzles and beach toys, as well as bikes for the whole family, so we've found that there's not much we need to bring but clothes, beach towels, golf clubs, and a good book or two. We have always been impressed by the responsiveness of the owners; for example, in one of our earlier years staying at the house, we noted in the feedback survey that it would have been nice to have beach chairs at the house so that we didn't have to bring them with us, and the next summer there were beach chairs waiting for us in the garage. Blue Moon is bright, clean, and comfortable and we always leave rested, relaxed, and wishing we had booked it for longer!
