Jaw-dropping Views!!
Review Submitted: July 16, 2011
Date of Stay: June 2011
We have always had a good luck renting houses, but usually the house doesn’t quite live up to the pictures. In this case, the pictures, which are fantastic, DO NOT DO THIS PLACE JUSTICE! Your home is stunning! This was my first trip to the Caribbean and the view was absolutely jaw-dropping, even after a week of sightseeing on 5 islands, the view from the house was the best!! Having coffee on the deck in the morning with the sunrise was amazing and having a late night swim with the kids, after a day of sightseeing, looking over the island when all the lights start coming on was just simply wonderful!
The yard is private. There are only 2 neighboring houses visible, but the houses are not close and you can only see them from certain sections of the deck. There are woods all around the house. You feel very safe and secluded.
The house is clean and well maintained. Each bedroom is big with a private bathroom and direct access to a porch or balcony with that jaw-dropping view. We brought our kids, high school and college age, and my parents in their 70’s. The house worked out perfect for us and we feel it would work out perfect for people with younger kids as well or for all adults.
The house is within 4 minutes of Coki, Sapphire, and Lindquist beaches. We kept the supplied beach chairs and coolers (which we stocked with cold drinks every morning) in the rental van, and that was very convenient, but also saved some money. BUT, do get a smoothie from the awesome waiter at Coki beach! They were so delicious!
Lastly, the service was great. We got off the plane at about 9:15 pm, with Jamie’s cell phone number in hand and when we called he answered right away. We agreed to meet at Wendy’s and we promptly got lost and called him back. He came a got us! He took us to the grocery store, waited for us to shop, brought us to the house, and showed us around. He was great!
It was truly an amazing vacation and we will have so many wonderful memories. The snorkeling was so much fun and just swimming in the ocean there is spectacular. We are from Maine and if your feet don’t go numb in the water here you’re lucky! My wife kept telling us you won’t believe how warm the water is. Well, we believe her now!
We got home received the security deposit back promptly…it was an awesome experience!! Thank you again Steve for sharing your home with us!!
