However, We prefer blue water but the sand was soft and white. Lots of sea weed and drift wood. But very peaceful. The Boardwalk rental company gave several other locations right on the beach for us to check out next time. We will go back. Rent a golf cart it is worth it. Oh and Our puppy loved it! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cassie L. Oct 11, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### GREAT PLACE AND LOCATION Overall the property is as they describe, newly remodeled, clean and has supplies that are need for a home away from home. Catching the breeze on the deck was perfection! The water/beach views from the deck are in front and off to the right side. The beach is clean with a short walk from the property! We would recommend the picture in the dining area be moved up so it does not cover the light switch. The island has a lot to offer, however make sure to get any groceries before you get there as the cost is higher than expected. It is an island after all lol. This property would be great during off season as well as in season. We would stay here again! ##### Cassie L.
