The house is beautiful and comfortable with plenty of kitchen tools to allow for easy cooking of meals. The view from this property absolutely cannot be beat. We enjoyed watching the many sea birds and were able to see dolphins from the balconies a number of times. It’s easy to walk into town and yet the location felt quiet and peaceful.

Some suggestions. The twin mattresses were very uncomfortable and twin blankets were miniature. The washing machine is full of mold. And there was only one packet of laundry detergent supplied. No extra toilet paper. The grill is outdated, small and insufficient. There were no spices in the house, not even salt and pepper. Only two garbage bags supplied for the week. ##### Julie T. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Benjamin W. Oct 2, 2018 #### Family Vacation We loved the house. It had a beautiful view of the ocean and a bike ride to most places. It says it had an elevator, but I don't think it was working. We didn't mess with it so I could be wrong, but all the doors to it were locked. The access to the beach was covered in bushes and ants. I tried cleaing out some sort of path, but there was too much to deal with. The red tide brought in a lot of dead fish and seaweed so we stayed away from the private beach and spent most time at the public beach by the cafe. The pool only allows sun until about noon, so the kids didn't get burned. If you are looking for all day sun try the other side of the island. We went canoeing and rode the bikes provided. Please make sure to get replacement plugs for the canoes. We could never find any and kept having to dump out the water that was collecting during our canoeing. We enjoyed our stay ##### Benjamin W. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Denise L. Mar 18, 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Owners- time for a refresh! We met our family at the house listed above. We saw all the pictures and the house was as clean as it could be. The house is about ten years old, and so is everything in it. Mattress, bedding, pillows all need to be replaced. It's TIME. Couches have couch covers on them, we assume because they are so dirty underneath. We had to put towels on them to feel comfortable to sit on them. The house is listed for 8 people. However there aren't even seats in the family room to fit that many. We assume there were two additional chairs that must have gotten so bad and the owners just never replaced. The property managers were amazing through our entire trip. There are always little things here and there. We have rented several places across the country had friends at another SATO property that was incredible. We were embarrassed to have them come over. Kitchen is huge, but there weren't even a full set of 8 utensils and every single kitchen item were also 10 years ago. Just aged and old. We literally bought plastic utensils. Pros- VIEW and new coffee maker. ##### Denise L. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2022 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Jun 7, 2016 #### Stunning house - beautiful memories This beautiful home is in a fantastic location - comfortable and decadent with amazing views of the bay. Sunrise is particularly spectacular and a must to see the dolphins, stingrays and manatees swim by every morning - worth getting up for. Rooms are exceptionally spacious, beds very comfortable and bathrooms well appointed. The décor is fresh and uplifting - lots of white and tasteful bright colours. Built on 3 levels with an elevator for easy access and the Ipad controlled sound system is amazing especially when lazing around the wonderful pool. Outside dining is a must with fantastic BBQ facilities. The owners provide bikes for getting around the island and it is so easy to cycle to Bean Point for the spectacular beach or the nearby Sandbar to watch the perfect sunset. We particularly enjoyed cycling to the Pier to watch the locals fishing early in the morning. Open from very early with fresh coffee or late at night for a beer/wine. The kitchen is very well equipped with every appliance/utensil needed if staying in to cook. However there are many restaurants within easy walking/cycling distance - you will be spoilt for choice. Our particular favourites are the Ocean Star, Waterfront and the Sandbar - but Rudys and the General Store for breakfast shouldn't be missed. Through the garden gate the bay is warm and inviting and perfect for kayaking and dolphin spotting. The neighbourhood is quiet and peaceful - an ideal place to relax and unwind. The sand on the beach couldn't be whiter and the ocean couldn't be more blue - worth going back to again and again. The house is a credit to the owners - thank you for letting us share your tiny piece of paradise. ### 8/10 Good #### Doug T. Jun 19, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location and outstanding view This house is beautiful! The decor is simple and elegant. Kitchen is great and the pool is perfect! The pool has shade, so it kept the water at a perfect temperature. Having 3 kayaks is a bonus. We so enjoyed using them and my son followed along with a manatee all the way to the pier. There is a small beach enough for chairs and an umbrella. The water is crystal clear and we enjoyed just hanging out in it. This house is great, but it does have some issues. The mattresses need replacing. Can’t say any of us had a great night sleep. (I think this should be a owners number one priority. This is a week of rest, relaxation and fun.) The king fitted sheet was too small. It kept coming undone while you slept. We had to keep fixing it during the night. Also, why not put double beds in the bedrooms? Definitely enough room and people would be more comfortable. And last, couches were comfortable but there wasn’t enough seating for a house of 4 bedrooms. Maybe add 2 comfortable chairs in living area. I am a condo owner on SK and I feel that if someone is paying a lot of money they should be comfortable. You definitely want them to return. And for these issues, I probably would not. If these were changed, I would. The house is beautiful and the view is absolutely perfect! ##### Doug T. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nancy R.

I am a 72-year-old widow and on my bucket list was to take my children on a trip with me. My sons found this amazing house and I booked it. The house is gorgeous. So clean and the kitchen was stocked with everything imaginable. I have knee problems so a house with an elevator was a huge plus. Upon arriving we found the elevator and pool filter were not working. I called Sato Realty and within 30 minutes Wes, one of their team, came over. Because of the hurricane, the island was having power surges which can flip some of the power box breakers. Fixed and came back the next day to check out everything else. He was a very personable and knowledgeable man. Highly recommend. Thank you Sato Realty. ##### Nancy R. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Michelle L. Jan 14, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in #### Beautiful home, great location Gorgeous home, great location. We really enjoyed the pool and the pool/beach toys left for us. Location was close to restaurants. The communication with host was not great. We had never received the actual address prior to renting and getting to the island after office hours had us scrambling when they did not answer phone. They also left all the check in info for previous guest inside which was odd and no soap, shampoo etc was provided which I assume is available so that was disappointing for the caliber of home. The house itself was very clean and the view is amazing. ##### Michelle L.
