"Our family just wrapped up a week long vacation at the Hancocks’ beautiful cottage at Sunsite Estates. The hosts are fantastic people with great attention to detail. The check-in was seamless, the communication between us was easy and the cottage was clean. Getting there was a breeze and the space is exactly as described. Everything in the cottage is maintained, clean and in excellent condition. It has all of the conveniences and the comforts of home.Our kids loved playing by the water, we loved the spectacular views and enjoyed every moment we shared together at the cottage. We absolutely recommend this cottage for anyone looking to connect with nature, escape the hustle and explore the island. It felt like home away from home and we will be returning next year. Thank you to the cleaning staff and to the Hancocks for an unforgettable week."
