Relax, Recharge & Enjoy the Island

This inviting lower-level home is designed with families and friends in mind. Both bedrooms feature splitable king beds, giving you the flexibility to enjoy a spacious king bed or configure each room with two twin beds—perfect for couples, families, or groups with different sleeping arrangements.

Need a little extra space? The living room sleeper sofa can accommodate an additional guest or two.

Inside, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen and dining area, making it easy to prepare breakfast before a day of adventure, enjoy a casual lunch, or gather around the table in the evening to share stories from your day in paradise.

The home also offers smart TVs, high-speed Wi-Fi, comfortable indoor and outdoor living spaces, and all the essentials for a relaxing stay.
