We had a wonderful family trip at beautiful Minerva House! The house itself is stunning, comfortable and safe. Having the slatted windows with screens to access the breeze and gorgeous views was a highlight as well as the huge porch as an option to get out of the sun or rain while still being able to enjoy the sounds and sights of the ocean. With young kids, I had been nervous about them exiting the house to the pool or outdoors unsupervised, but I needed not to worry as all the exits had very secure and child-proof lock options. Air conditioning worked well when needed and the house was very clean. Princess, Shan and Richie were friendly and attentive, cooking some great meals and always kind to our kids. The beach felt like our own and we enjoyed exploring the tide pools, finding shells, and taking daily peaceful walks. The beach area set up with hammocks and chairs was an added bonus. We hope to return again!
