Perfect couples retreat
My wife and I stayed the week prior to Easter here at Snail’s Pace, and it really was a perfect getaway. The location is phenomenal. We spent our mornings paddle boarding in the lagoon behind the house, which is brimming with wildlife, and even saw a couple manatees hanging out. We’d then spend the rest of the day lounging by the beach, which is just a short walk. The scenery was beautiful, and it’s much quieter on the north end of the island. Plenty of good food within walking distance as well. As for the cottage itself, despite its small size, it truly had everything we needed, and was very well thought out.

Peaceful retreat close to everything!
This property offered us exactly what we were looking for, a chance to be on the beach within minutes, walking distance of several great restaurants and peaceful back deck/dock to sit and read or relax on during our getaway!

Perfect little get away
Snails Pace is the front half of a duplex. The back half faces the lagoon. Nice little yard area to walk the dog. Very quiet neighborhood, everything we needed was avaliable even some fishing gear and a beech wagon. Kitchen is well stocked. Note the coffee maker takes those large cone filters. But ther is also a bean grinder so you can bring your favorite and grind fresh.

First trip to AMI
Loved the location, property and house. The owner was on the property when we arrived an hour before check in and he was kind enough to allow early access and give us advise where to go and what to see. Highly recommend this property.

Coziest little place and so close to the beach
We can’t say enough about this property. We loved it! It was spotless! And the walk to the beach was insanely close, 3 minutes give or take. Walking distance to Pine Avenue. The owner of the property was around a lot and he was so kind and helpful. We will definitely be back! It was the best place we’ve stayed at on the island. Hands down.

Perfect location
Clean and updated- had everything we needed including a full size washer and dryer! Right on the canal, with comfortable seating in front and back so we could enjoy the outdoors. Nice and quiet. Just a couple minutes walk to the beach! Also a short walk to Pine St with shops & restaurants.
