This suite is accessible by a set of stairs down to your balcony where the front doors are located. Unfortunately, this precludes us from being handi-accessible and potential guests with mobility issues should be very aware of this situation. The suite is self-catered, meaning that during the length of your stay all cleaning, cooking, dish-washing and laundry are the responsibility of the guests. We can provide contact information for service providers, however all arrangements and payment must be made by the guest directly with the service provider. Breakfast is provided for the first morning only. Typical items we provide include eggs, bread, yogurt, cheese, oatmeal, grits, bagels, coffee, tea, UHT milk, cereal, baked beans, etc. All items are subject to availability. As the suite is self-catered, all cooking is left to our guests. A variety of dry goods (coffee, tea, spices, condiments) are provided to get you started. We are on municipal water, which is potable. We live upstairs and will greet you upon arrival, with a refreshing rum punch! If you need anything we are here for you, so feel free to ask any and all questions before your arrival or while you are with us! We enjoy socializing with our guests, but we recognize this is YOUR vacation. We are simply here to facilitate your having a wonderful time. So, feel free to stop by and chat or share a drink with us...but feel equally comfortable in not doing so. You've worked hard for your vacation time, so spend that precious time in the way that suits yourself and your family best! Our large, friendly dogs live upstairs with us and will not ever be permitted near you, without your explicit permission.
