Lovely villa, spectacular view

Up on the Rocks is lovely, with comfortable beds, gorgeous bathrooms, a well-equipped kitchen, and nicely-landscaped grounds. The property manager, Henry, was responsive and friendly. Terrific view. The driveway is very steep and takes some getting used to.

Spectacular Views

We loved our stay at Up on the Rocks. It was very clean and comfortable. The view was spectacular and we enjoyed most of our time outside on the deck. The breeze is nice but we were definitely grateful for the AC in the bedrooms while we slept. It’s conveniently located to downtown and the road to all of the beaches. We loved our stay and would highly recommend!

Thank you Tami, for taking the time to write such a nice comment. When we rebuilt Up On The Rocks for use as a two master suite rental villa, we built the large veranda knowing that it would be the favorite spot for our guests with its incredible panorama view. We are glad you enjoyed and look forward to having you as our guests again soon.
