Modern Tropical Comfort and Convenience
Oh what an amazing experience. Communications from the host was superb. The villa was perfect. It provided exceptional comfort. Air conditioned rooms. Modern island decor. The grounds are tranquil and beautiful. The team….I cannot say enough amazing things about them. Julisa and Colleen were the epitome of true island hospitality. They took amazing care of us by ensuring that our needs were met daily. They got to know our family and accommodated us accordingly. We had a driver that was recommended by the villa, Clarence. He was absolutely amazing and so professional. He knew how to navigate the roads safely. The villa shares a security guard that can be seen at night. The cost of food is not included. The preparation of food is. Work directly with the host on the most reasonable options for grocery. We are already looking forward to our next visit.

When can we come back?!
We have a pretty good track record with vrbo properties - reality usually matches the description, pictures, etc. This, however, was far better than any words or pictures could describe. I catch myself periodically glancing outside or rolling over in my bed and looking out the window - expecting to see the magnificent sea, beautiful terrain, picturesque pool. But alas, it's just my neighborhood...when can we go back? Everything and everyone was top notch. Arthur is a great communicator and really cares about his guests. Clarence got us everywhere we needed to go - and got us great deals along the way - and always had a great story to tell. Julisa and Colleen were amazing - such good food and just made us at home. Andrew was awesome: snorkeling right out the back door? Yes please! Bat caves? Amazing. We'll be talking about this trip for years! And like I mentioned, I think we'll be back at some point.

Absolutely amazing!
My stay at Arthur and Imogen’s home was so incredible that I wish it never had to end. My friends and I went for a girls trip and we had the most amazing time. The communication was flawless, the property was beautiful and the staff was 100% friendly and accommodating. Definitely consider this place for your next stay! You won’t regret it.

Wah Gwaan? Just what we needed.
I came to this villa with my family for a much needed break...Wah Gwaan did not disappoint. I cannot say enough about the ease of communication with Arthur who was not only very accessible but was very accommodating when my personal circumstances made it necessary to tweak my booking. Thanks for everything Arthur! The villa itself is exactly as pictured, nicely appointed, very clean and very comfortable. Sasha checked in with us before we even arrived and she made sure we were well fed around the clock and her meals were delicious! it was also a nice touch that she checked in to make sure we arrived back home safely. The direct eyesight line to the pool meant that i could relax in the villa while keeping an eye on my 10 year old in the water which was perfect. We also loved the green space and open feel of the property grounds. All in all an excellent vacation stay...we will be back for some more R&R!!

Arthur was an awesome host who communicated with me from booking to during and even a post trip follow up message.

Wah Gwaan did not disappoint. It met and exceeded my expectations. The owners, Arthur and Imogen were most accommodating from the time I started inquiring about the villa in December until our departure. Every question was always answered in a very timely manner. They provided great recommendations from the simplest of renting a car to hiring a driver. They are so knowledgeable about any and everything you don't know but should know. They felt like family early on so I knew my arrival and vacation had to be great. It was!The house is just like the oucs. What the pucs don't capture us tge serenity, calmness, and overall essence of how special Wah Gwaan leaves you feeling. It's beautuful, spotless, open, airy, spacious. Pretty much, perfect. The views are surreal. I woke up early morning anxiously opening the shades to take in the beauty of the sea. Then head downstairs to a scrumptious breakfast prepared by Kascha and Sasha. Go authentic with your meals, you will not regret. All but one meal was had at the villa and we wush we'd bypassed it just to enjoy more Kascha's cooking. The staff is a gem. Warning, do not casually say you want to try something unless you really di because Kascha will move mountains to ensure you do. Who could ask for more? She teased our tastebuds daily with either jerk chicken, curried goat, curried shrimp, curried fishoxtails, escovitch, roasted fish with caliloo, pea soup, bammy, festival and the best tasting fruit I've ever eaten. She really is proud of her culture and goes out of her way to share her world with you. It was the simple thing as bringing in fruit from the trees to sample that's situated on the property. Those special gestures are priceless. My fav fruit I tried was the custard apple ( conti); it's like eating a dessert--so,so good among the guava and other things she brought. The location cannot be beat. It's secluded yet ies in between all the excursions you might be considering. We did alot but Dunn's Falls was my favorite along with bamboo rafting, luminous lagoon, and hearing a luve band at Smokehouse Plantation. The most absolutely greatest part of our trip was sitting around the house either on devk or below doing absolutely nothing but sipping on Red Stripe or whatever beverage of choice. Walking to the cove and watching abd listening to the waves was magical as well. This review only allows so many words and I'm near the end. If you're thinking of WahGwaan, just go. Don't Hesitate!!!

Beautiful property. If it’s available, book it now!!
This is a gorgeous updated 2 bedroom with a shared balcony. The area is spacious (indoor and outdoor) and is furnished with an indoor and outdoor dining area. The pool is beautiful and the private beach is amazing. If the waves are light, you can go snorkeling. What made this property unique is the host, the chef and their grounds driver. The host resolved the only 1 problem we have (at around 5 am), and Kascha cooked the best food. Definitely try her oxtail and shrimp curry! Amazing! The driver Clarence was also extremely professional. He drove us around town, brought us things we needed at the house and overall pleasant to deal with.
