Suite Paradise: Queen Suite Near Beach, Golf Cart, Hot Tub

Upon entering the suite, my husband and I felt as though we had been transported to Bermuda! The suite was decorated with soothing, tranquil tropical colors, music was playing, and fresh baked cookies and a wine setup were waiting for us on arrival.
Carolyn was very communicative both prior to and during our visit — always eager to make sure we had everything we needed.
Everything was exactly as pictured on the site, and the attention to detail was remarkable. Having access to the golf cart to visit the nearby beach was a wonderful touch, especially as I had recently had a knee replacement.
There were many restaurants to choose from on Carolyn's curated list, and we enjoyed quite a few! The suite itself was nestled away in its own private backyard, complete with an outdoor sitting area and hot tub.
I recently experienced the loss of my best friend and am also a co-caregiver for my mother, who has Alzheimer's. This trip was a time of respite, recharge, and joy that I deeply needed.
Thank you, Carolyn and Jonathan, for blessing others with your gift of hospitality!
