Total relaxation - just the ticket
We wanted to totally chill out for 3 weeks, and that is what we did. We are both avid readers and there were so many different places (and chairs) to try out!
The pool is really nice - we swam everyday. And the onsite gardener kept it crystal clear for us. He also brought us fresh coconuts. The property manager, Sherman, checked in regularly to make all was OK and brought us the best avocadoes. from his garden.
Bed was extremely comfortable. And as others have said the kitchen is great - fully equiped. We ate in it most of the time, just going out for lunch a few times (Da Perk, Tippys, 1648 and La Bougainvillea). We liked the food at La Bougainvillea best.
We regularly got bread, pasties and scones from the Governors Harbor bakery, and salad ingredients and stone crab claws from Island Farm. They also have crusty bread, which is different from the sweeter GH bread.
Our best find was that Horatio, owner of Da Perk, cooks fantastic meals to go. We had his whole baked chicken with vegetables, Meatloaf, Cottage Pie, Lobster Thermidor (wow!), and seafood pasta. And his bread pudding is the best we've ever tasted - with coconut and chocolate chips. We would call in an order 48 hours in advance and go pick it up. We would order multiple meals and then store them in the house's Sub Zero fridge and freezer.
The bugs were bad all over the island - so do take Deet and anti itch stuff
