Rent jet skis, go parasailing, book a snorkeling or scuba excursion, or charter a romantic sunset cruise directly from the property.

The beach view was amazing. There was great food, water sports and music at the beach and marina … everything was so convenient. The power went out one evening so we just walked to the beach bar for dinner. We utilized the available snorkel gear.

FABULOUS!

The condo was perfect for us. It was comfy and has a mesmerizing view. The location is within a short walk to three restaurants, a beach with good snorkling, a lovely pool, and the marina (where we met the boat for a St. John snorkling tour). We'd definitely stay here again!

The owner was extremely responsive, the place was perfect. While they said they had snorkeling equipment a lot of it was broken. Other than that absolutely perfect, the location can't be beat
