Lovely house and private location

Beautiful home in a beautiful location! Steps away from your own private swim in the turquoise ocean, and sunsets were gorgeous from the porch or from the lounge chairs with a sunset view next to the ocean! The home has some great features like screened - in porches and outdoor shower, as well as plenty of space, beautifully decorated. Remote location is accessible by car, but we recommend a four-wheel drive or jeep. Not able to walk to town readily, nor is there anything to walk to (stores, restaurants). Grocery stores nearby are stocked with mostly canned foods and are more like what those coming from the USA would think of as a very small convenience store, not a big grocery store. Also, keep in mind when visiting this island, that emergency medical help is not readily available, so that may be a consideration. Otherwise, Current Settlement is definitely private and not a crowded or touristy location at all. The house itself is lovely!

Flip flops and swim suits all that is needed

This place was amazing! It has total privacy and allowed us to step back and reconnect with each other. The ocean looks like a swming pool. Bring your snorkel set and enjoy! Pack bug spray with DEET. The non-DEET sprays didn't work for us. Tou Note: You must be willing to cook some meals on this trip. Restaurants are few and far between. Grocery selection is limited and costly. One of my luggage pieces had all dry shelf stable snacks in it. ie:mug cake mix, instant noodles, candy, cookies. Pack light on clothes. Nothing is dressy. Just wear a pair of flip flops, pack a couple swim suits and that's that.

Wonderful trip

We spent one week at Getaway and had a wonderful time. The kayak worked out great and we were able to explore the hidden beaches and do a lot of snorkeling. Pedro (building manager) was very responsive to any of the concerns we had while we stayed there and all issues are resolved very quickly. If you want to be totally secluded... and away from beach vendors and all the hustlers that go with other popular tourist destinations this is the spot for you. Just make sure you stock up enough groceries to get through a week or however long you plan to stay, as restaurants are few and far between. I really have no complaints... other than I wish we had known that at this time of year the tide really never goes out... so the beach that is shown in the pictures does not really exist... but for us it was okay...we just had to be careful walking on the rugged coral... all (Website hidden by Airbnb) was perfect and we got a very nice suntan☺

The beach at Getaway, like any beach is dynamic. Sometimes we have more beach than at other times dependent on weather patterns, hurricanes, seasonal shifts etc.

Loved the island and location

The “Getaway”is a beautiful place to relax and enjoy the local flavor of the the island. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The beds were comfortable, the house clean and it had most anything one would need for a comfortable stay. The water a few steps away was delightful to swim in and explore. If you like off the beaten path and away from the crowds this is your place. Can’t wait to return.
