We love it here enough to have just completed our second stay at Ave Maria. Jeff and Sue work hard to provide everything their guests could want to make their stay comfortable and enjoyable, and an extremely quick to reply to any questions. It could not be in a more convenient location on AMI; just behind the wonderful Pine Avenue, with a short walk to wonderful Bean Point, some of the best restaurants on the island, the Pier or the free trolley stops! The beds are extremely comfortable - always an important consideration, and the kitchen is well stocked with cooking items - should you wish to stay home to eat. Use of the beach toys and bikes was greatly appreciated. too! Thank you both for making our stay so lovely again :) ##### Julie E.
