Lovely and romantic ideally located about an hour fifteen minutes. Couple issues: our room had a musty smell to it, it took them 3 different golf carts to get us one that actually worked and didn't leave us stranded. The restaurants we're fabulous. If interested in them ask me on Monday and I'll drop some names for you, pricey but worth every penny. Take the cart and explore the island, it'll take you less than 30 minutes. Sorry for just droning on and on but this place is one we will visit again.
Last thing, do not rent a boat on a holiday weekend. There were so many yahoos and it felt like the wild west. Our excursion was cut from 4 hours to 1 1/2 hours. Our pontoon couldn't do much against 3 speed boats heading toward you as if we were playing chicken. Even the deckhands told us they don't go out on weekends or holiday weekends for just that reason. Whew! Quite a mouthful, buy I wanted to be fully transparent.
