The Suite
This lower-level suite has been thoughtfully updated to create a bright, functional living space that supports both relaxation and longer stays. The open living and dining area is filled with natural light and oriented to take in distant ocean views. The kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances and practical counter space, making it easy to prepare meals and settle into a daily routine.

Both bedrooms are comfortably furnished and positioned to provide separation from the main living area, offering privacy for couples, small families, or guests sharing the space. A dedicated office area supports remote work or longer-term stays, while the three-piece bathroom is clean and well laid out for everyday use.

Outdoor Space
A private courtyard extends the living space outdoors, offering a quiet place for morning coffee or relaxed evenings. While the suite is self-contained, there is an additional rental located on the upper level. Each unit has its own separate outdoor area, though there is some visual connection between spaces.

This is a uniquely laid out property, well appointed with high quality items

This is a uniquely laid out property, well appointed with high quality items. The local/indigenous artwork is awesome! Easy process for check-in/check-out.

We stayed at this property from August 28 to 31. Unfortunately, both the hot tub and the EV charger were out of service for our entire stay. These were the two main reasons we chose this rental, even though it was more expensive than other options, so it was very disappointing not to be able to use them at all.We reported the issues to EMR Vacation Rentals right from the first day. On the second day, they told us a technician would come between 4–6 pm, so we stayed at the house to wait, but no one showed up. After we followed up again on the third day, they sent someone, which meant we had to spend another half day at the property waiting. Unfortunately, the technician could not fix either problem.At the end, we only received a small partial refund (around 10%), which did not reflect the inconvenience of losing these important amenities. On top of this, we had to look for charging station at public stations every day.There were also some smaller issues inside the house, such as the bathroom lock not working, spiderwebs in some closets and around the house , and a very loose closet handle.While the view from the house was nice, overall the experience was disappointing because of the high price and in return unresolved issues and limited compensation.

It was such a peaceful location, we enjoyed listening to the ocean and picking blackberries outside on the patio

All together this trip was not a good experience

Guest
All together this trip was not a good experience. Right from the start in February, too many agencies got involved in the process: Expedia, VRBO, EMR. EMR was experiencing software problems which resulted in receiving several contradicting information about our payments and reservations. I had to phone around a dozen of times EMR to get accurate informations. Finally even on the day of arrival the AC was not working. We had during our stay two unannounced visitor: one was the jacuzzi maintenance guy (he came through a locked gate in the fence in the middle of the afternoon as we were enjoying our peace) and an older man who came knocking to the door looking the owner who was supposedly an old friend of his. There is no ventilation over the stove and cooking fumes had nowhere to go. No ventilation in the bathroom. The landscape has not been done as wild blackberry thorny vines were growing and invading a good section of the patio.

It was a little expensive but the view was amazing

It was a little expensive but the view was amazing. The property was immaculate. Had issues as we could hear the upper unit walking and thomping in the house at night which made my pet anxious.

The apartment is in a quiet residential area with stunning views, it is a basement conversion hence it is extremely noisy with no insulation so you can hear every step above.The soil pipes are visible and exposed in the apartment ceiling hence you can hear the water gushing through the pipes day and night. The apartment is furnished tastefully and is very homely. Comfortable beds although we couldn’t sleep due to the noise above. There was an ant infestation we had them crawling over us in bed we addressed this issue to the agent who did not acknowledge our concern, they chose not to communicate with us until the check out when we had an automated message. The shower cubicle is very small I could not wash my hair in the shower as it was too small to raise my arms. The bedroom drawers were very dirty we had to clean them.Toilet seat was wobbly, but we fixed it , the oven was unsteady so we stabilised it with cardboard.There were no blinds in the bedroom.

We loved this place. There were 3 of us so we chose the lower property. As soon as we walked through the door we felt at home. Beautifully furnished and well laid out. Decor is stylish with local art and sculptures making it feel authentic to the island. The flow of the property works very well and kitchen is fantastically equipped as is the laundry room. As the lower floor of the house, the bathroom (particularly the shower enclosure ) has quite a low ceiling which is a bit limiting for anyone approaching 6 feet in height or over but all the other rooms are fine. The rear garden overlooking the bay is the stand out and comfortable with everything you need for relaxing outside. Felt very comfortable here and it was a pleasure to stay here. Thank you.

Great quiet little getaway

Alex Tam
Charming suite with beautiful views of the water. Up to date finishes, newly installed hot tub, and a fire pit (that we unfortunately couldn't take advantage of, due to the fire ban). Grill works great and is directly connected to the gas line, so it heats up incredibly quick!Do note that there is an upper and lower floor, so you may be staying with other guests. We lucked out with only one night of overlap, so it was very quiet for us. Only negatives are the small bathroom (6" shower), and that the stove didn't have a vent above it.
