Kim was amazing to work with. Answered all questions quickly, which helped so much with first timers on the island.She was there for check in, made sure we had all we needed, gave us the tour of the property, and where all the equipment was for our use.Having the grill was a huge plus. Worked great for fresh grouper right off the dock.The pool was clean and beautiful. Perfect for late afternoon cool down.Plenty of all that you need in the unit. Bedding, towels, kitchen stuff and gadgets. If it isn’t there, you don’t need it.Highly recommend for a couple that isn’t in the market for the Ritz but wants clean, fully stocked, quiet and with a great host.
We enjoyed our stay at Gifft Hill studio. It was in a great location and had all the amenities needed. The pool was a short walk and was clean and refreshing. Kim was a great host. I would recommend to a friend.
We loved the property.Great location, open and breezy. Very peaceful The bed was very comfortable. Everything we needed was there. Very clean. If we needed anything Kim was there to help. I would stay again.
