Beautiful
5/5 Stayed Jan 2023 Lorri M.
This property is absolutely beautiful, from the views to the cottage. We spent most of our time up on the screened porch where we could see and hear the ocean.
The property manager went above and beyond with suggestions and information about what to do, where to eat and what to bring. Linda was always available for questions prior to our arrival and Fitzroy was always around if a need arose.
We hope to return again next year, and stay for more than a week! Published Jan 24, 2023
Has potential

There were some quality aspects that were good but description set an expectation that didn’t match the view and beach experience. Published Jan 3, 2023
Perfect location! Amazing place for kids to be kids.
5/5 Stayed Dec 2022 David H.
This place is wonderful! Perfect location, quiet and beautiful. Owner was amazing, very quick to remedy any small issues, and it is a great home base to escape to after a long day of exploring the island! Published Jan 4, 2023
Quiet Cozy Cottage
5/5 Stayed Nov 2022 james t.
We loved staying at “The Magic Place”. It was such a respite from our busy lives. Our host was very helpful and thoughtful. Few cars pass on the road and it is very quiet. The screened in patio was a great place to spend our evenings, listening to the waves and enjoying the warm night air. The view over the Caribbean from the mill is spectacular, as is the drive in and out along the edge of the sea.. The caretaker showed us the waterfalls in the rain forest and brought us fresh aloe. I highly recommend this little gem of a place. We look forward to staying here again soon. Published Dec 1, 2022
Amazing!
