This property’s design is amazing; it is positioned so that you get beautiful views of the Caribbean Sea from every room.
The Villas are located up the hill from the main road with a paved drive way, therefore, access by vehicle was smooth. The double security gates that enclose the property were wide enough to accommodate our tour bus and the circular driveway was large enough for the bus to make a full turn comfortably.
The private setting was ideal, we rented both villas. (You can rent one at a time if you have a smaller group) My family and friends enjoyed being away from the crowds of the larger, noisy, impersonal, resorts. We were able to be festive without worrying about disturbing neighbors. Although we were a large group we never felt cramped.
The two main buildings are connected by a beautifully landscaped tropical garden walkway, but are far enough apart that if you only rent one villa it would still feel private. Next time I may take walkie-talkies to communicate with people in the other Villa, because even though wifi is included, the service was inconsistent and my cellular service was international so I was trying to avoid using it.
The infinity edge pool had umbrellas for shade, sun lounges for those who didn’t want shade; as well as, sitting chairs and tables for pool side card games and snacks. We spent much time there in the day and at night playing music and enjoying the deck.
Near the pool deck is an outdoor shower which was helpful for washing sand off when you return from the beach, we didn’t want to track it into the Villas.
The villas high ceilings kept the us cool when the doors & windows were open so we could enjoy the Caribbean breeze; but we also had the option of using the AC if we wanted.
The common areas were laid out so well that the loud sounds of laughter from our late night game night didn’t disturb the group members that went to bed earlier. These villas were really a great space for bonding & making memories.
Mrs. Roberts even made us a homemade rum cake that tasted spectacular!!! This very personal touch was another reason we were happy booking with a local family.
There was a private chef option, but our group chose to visit Ojs Beach Bar, Miracles Restaurant, Turner’s Beach Bar, Al Porto’s for Pizza, Dennis Restaurant, and Aunty Carvelle’s at Darkwood Beach because they we all so close by.
Overall we had a great stay. Thumbs up.
