About the host

Originally from New Jersey, the military has brought us to our forever home here on the islands.

Why they chose this property

The beach across the street is my favorite on island (and probably in the world!)

What makes this property unique

The cicak shack is named after our gecko friends you’ll find throughout the island. This junior suite is a very creative converted unit constructed by the last owners. It was so much character, we just adore it!
