Location was very central, with a grocery store nearby. The house was clean and the kitchen well stocked with the basics.

Needs some updating
There were several maintenance issues. The management was quick to address most. Location: airplane noise, as airport is close. One block off hwy 1, so convenient for driving. Not convenient for biking or walking.

Thanks so much for your feedback, Jacqui! We're glad our team could quickly address any maintenance concerns during your stay.
Since we're a small island, all of our homes are fairly close to the one, small airport, but we're happy to hear you still enjoyed your time here.
We appreciate you staying with us and hope to welcome you back soon!
