We were celebrating our retirements and each week brought new family/friends to the island to share in our celebration.
We found Casa Cowee an AMAZING property as did all of our guests!! We enjoyed being able to snorkel in the bay in front of the property. The views from the front deck are priceless. Blue brain is a thing, and it is most relaxing to lie in the hammocks and just gaze out over the sea. The bay was busy with water taxis going to and from the dolphins next door. (The dolphins!! so fun to watch on a daily basis!) Cruise ships coming and going in the distance, the sounds of the local kids/families enjoying the pier in front of the house. (Kids are the same every where in the world, some have more than others but as a kid all you want to do is have fun.)
Jose was available to provide whatever we needed throughout our stay. He shared fresh limes, mangos, bananas, and eggs from the property. YUM!! Such a gracious kid. He keeps the property neat and tidy for the guests and that is very much appreciated.
The pool was a blessing and so much fun! When the day began heating up and we had no plans to explore other parts of the island, we headed to the pool for conversation and cocktails.
We cooked many meals in the fully furnished kitchen but when we wanted to go out, we had three restaurants within a short walk: the Bahia, Tranquil Seas, and Anthony’s Key. All with delicious food, drink, and great camaraderie with the local staff. Also, the BEST key lime pie and lunches at the car wash, which is just a short walk away—don’t forget to stop there!
We had a couple massages with our guests at Spa Baan Suerte which is located a short distance behind Casa Cowee. Very wonderful people and equally wonderful service!
We packed in an amazing amount of adventure. We visited West Bay, West End, the Rum Factory, an island tour, and a sunset cruise complete with snorkeling all with the help of Channin’s excursions. We also had a fun afternoon at the Guava Grove Swim up-bar with Suzanne!
It was fun to venture out and see the different sights and people of the island, but nothing was better than kicking back and enjoying Casa Cowee and the fantastic property and views that it offered. To lie in bed at night and hear the ocean breaking at the reef and hear the sounds of the island rather than being in a sealed air-conditioned resort room was wonderful. Such an experience!
Thank you, Jose, Fabi, Channin, and Suzanne!! We would definitely go back!!
