Our Story

This was never really the plan.

Two friends, one island, and a very good slightly impulsive idea.

A wedding brought us here.

Then came the ferry. Music. Drinks. That water. Isla made a very strong first impression.

Then we came back

There was always another reason.

Family trips. Beach days. New places. Old favorites. We got very good at finding reasons.

What if we actually did this?

A Facebook listing landed in front of us. The first offer did not work out. That probably should have been the end of the story. It wasn’t.

The moment

We actually did this.

Snorkeling together in the Caribbean
The dream got bigger

More than a place.

A home to return to. More time with the people we love. More stories that start with, “Remember when…”

Come see what we love.
