Charming and private house
Review Submitted: September 10, 2009
Date of Stay: July 2009
I had a wonderful stay at Ocean Sound and I really appreciated the high quality of the house, its contents, and location. What a charming and romantic house, it is very impressive. It is clean, comfortable, cosy, quiet, and very well equipped. The grounds and garden are beautiful, while the proximity to the water is really agreable. In one word It’s paradise!
The best advantage of this house is that it is completely private... with easy access to private and deserted beaches and one of the most amazing views of the ocean! Imagine having your breakfeast on the quiet patio, listening to the ocean and birds chirping in the charming garden with a perfect view of turquoise waters! The outdoor shower is nice after coming back from the beach…..
I also enjoyed the nice breez during the warmer days, the sound of the surf at night with the millions of stars in the dark sky... What a relaxing and perfect time! On Long Island and close to the house, there are lots of amazing sandy beaches, great for snorkelling, strolling and shelling… and there’s hardly anyone else around! People on the island are very friendly and accomodating. Simply, the Long Island experience is the real island living!
Take a walk on the empty beach, swim in the baby blue ocean, discovery the magnificient Deep Blue Hole, have a conch salad in a local restaurant, take a drink with the local people or just relax with a good book on a long chair.
By the way, for more practical questions, I really appreciated the availability, helpfulness and advices of the care-taker. I also appreciated having the internet, quite a luxury for the out island experience. I will note : renting a car during my trip was good, as it was essential for discovery of more of the island and grocery shopping.
I hope your stay is as enjoyable as mine was…..!
