The penthouse villa was absolutely fabulous! Great views, everything one could need and the host and on-site property manager felt like family. I plan to return again and again.

I've never slept better! Hearing the ocean waves right outside my bedroom window was amazing. Only issue was ants, but it's an island so you gotta expect somethings.

We have a lovely and peaceful stay at Amber's. The instructions were clear and we had no issues. We like the extra security when you go into the complex. Amber had all the amenities. We have the decor that just went with the island theme. The views were stunning, nothing like waking up hearing the waves! The complex has a pool just footsteps down and a jacuzzi. Those were a bit highlight for our kiddos. There is also a mini area that leads to the ocean. You can snorkel or just relax. The golf cart was very helpful to go down to the pier area were most restaurants and shops are at. Overall, we were very happy with our stay.

My wife and I stayed here for our anniversary and it was one of our favorite Airbnb ever. Location and the decor was amazing. The view from the balcony is unmatched. Close to the town of Avalon but far enough to be completely isolated.
