"Small and well-run, this little beach front inn is a throwback to simpler times. As well as colorful rooms there are bungalows with large verandas and up to two bedrooms and two baths."

"A shaded courtyard welcomes guests at this quirky, informal guesthouse on a 3-mile-long stretch of Simpson Bay. It has the funky feel of the Florida Keys."

"A cheerfully spiffed-up boutique property, where the best rooms have big cherrywood four-poster beds and spacious layouts...also the kind of friendly place that encourages mingling with your neighbors" Full review
