Every detail was thoughtfully taken care of, and we truly felt at home from the moment we arrived. The location was perfect, and the peaceful atmosphere made our stay even more enjoyable. We highly recommend this property and would love to come back again!

Great stay for 8 yr old to 85 year old
Hard to summarize: great space for just. Hanging out , enjoying nice meals in the cozy nook, watch tv (ROKU),the pool was nice and warm and everyone really enjoyed it and the shaded area was super nice. So close to everything down on Pine (the main hub with restaurants and sand beaches at either end of the short street ). location is the best and the house is so nicely appointed with everything anyone would want to cook and relax. plenty of towels for pool and daily use...nice linens. ***You really need to make sure that you have large numerals for the house incase someone comes in late! ***AND even more importantly: lights on on the house and inside if someone is coming in late at night!! A big negative for me coming in from the airport driving in a strange neighborhood with no lights at 9:30 and a very dark night! Other than that we really enjoyed our stay.

We traveled with some friends down to AMI and had such a good time at Whispering Whale Retreat. Had a great time hanging out by the pool and using the grill. I liked how close the property is to shops and places to eat. House was very clean and comfy. Lovely home!!

Excellent location, spacious interior and exterior lounge options. The only entrance has a long flight of stairs to the 2nd story. Not recommended for elderly or impaired, if climbing the stairs every entrance and exit is an issue. Responsive guest services. Walking distance to the pier and plenty of shops, restaurants, and pristine beaches make this a gem.

Great island experience
This place was beautiful, very clean, and comfortable. We were 4 adults and 2 kids and it was a great experience for all. Only complaint was the communication for checking from property management. Reached out at 12 to follow up on if we can have an earlier checkin. Was told the room was finishing up from being cleaned and we would be notified when it is. Never heard anything from them after that and at 430 had to call from the property to find out how to be let on because we had still not received the final information. Outside of that the experience was great and I would strongly recommend this property

Great stay
We were happy to find this place so last minute. The house was clean, roomy and met all our needs. The location was close to the pier and all the small shops on Pine. We rented bikes around the corner because most of the bikes from the house had flat tires (no pump). A few other things we wish the house came with were coffee filters, laundry detergent and better hand soap but all these things were available for purchase at the local shop on Pine.

We loved the house, it was so clean and well kept. The only downside was the pool was dirty and the pool area not well kept up. We did, however, have a wonderful week!
