The house was just as described and even though the trek up the hill was mentioned in the reviews, it was a longer, steeper walk than expected. The beach was very rocky and full of coral, so definitely bring water shoes to get in and out of the water. The house was very clean and well equipped, and the outdoor porches and decks were lovely. There is no trash pickup on the island, so one needs to take it to a dumpster a mile or so away. We had a rental car so we were able to do it several times, but I can’t imagine ordering a taxi to get rid of the trash Renters of the villas are not allowed to use any of the resort facilities, but the beach is public, and the 1748 restaurant lets you use their facilities if you have lunch with them.
