Perfect Romantic Setting for Two
Review Submitted: June 24, 2009

Pictures on their website do not do it justice.The views are amazing from every door&window…including the view from the bathrm! It looks like a framed painting as my niece exclaimed when she saw the pictures.
Accomodation is comfy&cozy.It was designed&built w/great care to ensure full privacy.It’s a great place to relax&hang out.Grounds are large enough so that u don’t run into any neighbors&u feel like the entire surroundings are just for u.Yet the house is conveniently located&a short drive to restaurants,shops,other beaches,etc.
Tree in the entrance parking area is beautifully lit w/holiday lights at night.There is a small garden to watch the sugarbirds,hummingbirds,hermit crabs,&lizards. There are 2patios to choose from depending on whether you're looking for shade/sun.The bed is very comfortable w/top quality sheets&cover.The kitchen is well equipped.
The beach is just a short walk away. It is less than a min. walk/longer if you stop to collect seashells&"seaglass".There’s a small tree to give you a bit of shade in the afternoon&it is practically ur own private beach(btw,all beaches are public inAnguilla).We only ran into a few people while we were there for a wk.
The owners occupy the top floor.We hardly heard them nor noticed whether they were in/not.They proved to be perfect innkeepers-extremely friendly&always providing invaluable info on restaurants,shopping&local insight.At one point,I wanted to find something(a particular gift item)but couldn’t find it in any store.They were able to tell me exactly which store to go.
Service was impeccable&very attentive.They sometimes knew what we wanted before we even thought about it.They provided us w/a lot of info before the trip too.U only have to ask…all ur questions will be answered. They will even stock ur refrigerator before your arrival!!!
Probably 1 of the best overall values of any place we've stayed out in the Carribean!
I can’t think of any negative aspects about the place.Maybe if I had to pick on something there were mosquitoes&tiny ants but those are all tropical island nuisances¬ related to the house.Bed mosquito net&coils were100%effective at night.
Best part?Pick ur choice:1waking up in the morning looking out over turqoise water w/the view of StMaarten,2lounging at ur own "private" beach,3quickly running out to any no. of terrific gourmet restaurants,4gazing at the SouthernCross&thousands of stars at night,5just hanging out in the perfect romantic setting for 2.
