Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The stay was nice. Clean and staff was friendly. But for the money that was very very expensive I would think that the place would be absolutely kept up. I understand it is on an island and prices are high. But for such a ridiculous priced inn I would expect no issues. It is simple maintenance that is not big things or take a lot of time to fix. Loft ceiling fan was making a very loud noise while on so we couldn’t have the fans on to circulate the air. The ac was already preset to a temp which was 71. And could not be adjusted so the place was very stuffy and warm. These are very simple fixes that should be kept up on and not expensive. The room was uncomfortable to sleep im due to the stuffiness and ac ineffective. The shower was gorgeous tile but dripped and didn’t shut off all the way. Simple fixes. Ac that can’t be adjusted was the biggest complaint I have. The grounds were clean but absolutely nothing to do on the grounds. Overpriced in my opinion. I would not rent again if I came to the island agsin. Overall it was ok.

This property is so incredible. The staff is great and always helpful. We went for 4th of July weekend and had an awesome time with all of our kids!! It is perfect for walking to the downtown and when you are in need of a break from the busy downtown it is a perfect walk and quiet and peaceful. It is like you are in a completely different place.

The staff was wonderful, so helpful in every way! The complimentary brunch on Mother's Day was wonderful! The Inn is just gorgeous! Only concern was our door to our room really wouldn't lock. You can just push it open without a key. One morning I woke to it ajar. The wind must have opened it.
