Our Cabanya Azul/Blue Cottage is a family endeavor. Building it and hosting families and guests was a way for us introduce our little slice of Heaven on Earth and to give back to the Long Island community that we all love and adore. My great grandparents (farmers), grandparents (farmers), mother and her siblings were all born and grew up on Long Island. My mother and her siblings went away to get an education and to find their way in the world. As they found success in their chosen careers they all helped to support their parents and younger siblings yet to leave home. My name is Todd and I am the face of this project and represent my family. I was actually born in Tampa, Florida and raised in Deadman's Cay, Long Island from 6 months old until I was 3 1/2 years old when I returned to Tampa. I continued to maintain a connection with my beloved Long Island as I returned every summer until adulthood to spend time with my grandparents, cousins, aunts/uncles and other distant family members.
All of us have wonderful memories of our time in Long Island so we all have invested in Long Island by renovating our original house and taking advantage of this opportunity to build this beautiful cottage in the adjacent settlement of Buckleys that we share with you.
We hope that you explore all that Long Island has to offer and enjoy it as much as we have over the years. We hope to make you a part of the family and encourage you to return on a regular basis - if not with us then with any of our other family and/or friends on this beautiful island. We all will make you feel welcomed and at home. You will see and we look forward to seeing you soon.
Todd, Family and our TEAM on Long Island
